taking without asking

taking something without asking permission is effectively stealing, especially if the person committing the act has no intention of replacing what is taken.
food from my shelf was taken without my being asked, this is clearly an act of stealing.

"oh dear, someone has been eating my food! no one asked me if they could eat my food, therefore I can only deduce that it has been stolen."

Are you asking me out?

Something random that you say in response to any statement or question thrown at you by another, in an attempt to embarrass that person.

This should be said in a voice loud enough to be heard by others, in order to get the full effect.

Very similar to the famous Billy Madison line "No, I won't make out with you!"
