Maybe he forgot.

Think of all of the times you have bought something from the grocery store and you never ate it. It's payback time. If I had to have a crime on my permanent record, I would want it to be this or getting arrested for peeing behind a tree. Guilty as charged!
Occupy Tops Lobby, free the pizza!
