Finally, I put into writing the unofficial theorem that all like-hearted moochers around the world have always known. Perhaps you are a moocher the moment you are born. Or do you grow into one because of your environment?
We're talking about the laws of psychology and sociology here. I don't even know what those laws are. All I know is that mooching is the highest point of self-sufficiency that can be reached.
Mooching is not begging. Begging is asking for money. It is crude, rude and uncivilised. Mooching is an art.
The best moochers mooch without slipping out a word. A slight jerk to the hamburger of choice or a smile to the potato chips.
So here is the theorem:
You have go out with 8 friends and each friends buys a burger at McDonald's. From each friend you take a bite. One bite is equivalent to 1/8 of a burger. How much would you have eaten if you mooched a bite from every friend?
A whole burger! Plus, you would have eaten the most burger of all your friends because they would be left with 7/8 of their burger.
