Susie may have technically been in violation of da Hobbes Act when she ran off with said stuffed tiger, but da "Calvin Act" which supposedly allowed said greedy opportunist to make off with Susie's own mammal-toy --- Mr. Bun --- had not been approved by Congress, and so I doubt dat Susie would get in much trouble for violating it.

"If you aren't in a hurry to leave the store, there will be little or no delay in getting a clerk to ring you up. But if you're pressed for time --- or even more so, if you're car-pooling with someone who is on a tight schedule --- THAT'S when there will be hold-ups galore... a long line in front of you, a customer with one or more heaped-full shopping-carts, one or more price-discrepancies that hafta be tediously resolved (i.e., the puzzled clerk is obliged to walk back with you to the shelf to look at the price-labels, a supervisor or the store-manager has to be called over), a balky card-scanner, etc."
Whenever someone who's giving me a ride is kind enough to let me stop at a store to grab a few items, I always try to make very sure that I have everything all "set and prepared" before I head to the register, so that I personally seldom create a problem (i.e., cause any delays myself with issues like not having the proper payment ready or being unsure of a price or quantity) with Murphy's Law of Checkout-Lines. That way, even if my driver has to wait linger than expected for me to hastily scamper back outside with my loaded shopping-bags, he won't be able to direct his impatient frustration at me --- "Sorry for the delay; I did indeed get everything tossed in my cart very quickly, but there was a long line in front of me, and they were short-staffed today, so they only had once register open."

A large clean towel that you carry with you while strolling the beach, and then drape around the shoulders of any cute chicks whom you meet prior to giving them a hug, so that you don't hafta endure any disgusting yucky-sticky skin-to-skin contact with sweaty/oily arms, necks, chests, backs, and shoulders during said embraces.
I find that bathing beauties are much more willing to give me a hug when I bring along an embracing-towel; I even occasionally receive a warm-hearted compliment from da chick for my being "such a perfect gentleman" to think considerately of her like that.

The "permission to engage" that the Good King should have insisted that his Knights of the Round Table obtain from him before inciting battles with competing knights/armies from areas outside his kingdom.
If Sir Duncan and some of the other "overly aggressive/combative" knights had sought Arthurization before "starting stuff" with enemy factions, life at Camelot might have been considerably more peaceful and harmonious, and more of the armored warriors might have lived longer calmer happier lives as a result.
