Irish designer Steve O'Donnell had a brilliant idea to score some cheap pizza: use his art skills to forge a student ID.
Then he had a not-so-brilliant idea: diss the pizza place, which refused to give a student discount to a non-student, by [URL="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200975659176362&set=a.2037502259848.123173.1313000542&type=1&theater"]posting[/URL] the fake ID on Facebook and writing, "Fuck you Apache."
O'Donnell is what his Irish brethren might call a[URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/comments/1b8j5d/guy_posts_to_the_apache_facebook_apache_reply/c94l47j"]smart arse[/URL]. But posting the image on Facebook, of course, was pretty stupid.

My 2 cents: If he hadn't bragged about it on Facebook, he could have gotten away with it a [I]few[/I] more times.
At this point I think Facebook has gotten more people to confess than actual Police Officers.

Reminds me of in LA Noire where you would always here someone say in the police station "they weren't even his prints and he still confessed"
Idiot.

That would have to be one hell of a deal on pizza for him to do all that. But it was probably just the dude being a douche.

It was probably the customer trying to get a discount that no longer applies to him

Judging by the ratings I guess people who have fake ID's should get discounted pizza V:v:V
Reminds me of a place near my campus that does the same student discount- they tried ripping me by not giving me my full %10!...
To say the least i had some words on facebook about..."Fuck you, Sal's."
I don't understand why people think it's even remotely reasonable to brag about some type of crime they committed on a social media site like Facebook.
If anything, this is the type of thing I'd share with my friends in person. "Dude, you'll never guess what I just did to get a discount lunch..."
I think it's because you have your Facebook, and posted all the standard relationship shit. Then you did your party animal shit. Then you did whatever jokes and memes you think are funny...now what?
It's time to be unique. It's time to stand out. What can you post that no one else is posting, what do you know how to do that no one else does? Sketchy, and mostly lame, crimes!

How did you work it out so quickly? This one had me stumped..
I kind of doubt any legal action is going to happen against this guy, but he may lose his job. Seems like that's the normal knee-jerk reaction for businesses any time an employee does something stupid on Facebook, irregardless of whether it's related to his job or not.
I wonder how good the deal was.

wow i never knew
How the hell did he make that ID card so quickly?

Soon, people will be given a laptop with a rootkit on it & a internet connection and be forced to sit alone in a room with said laptop for 24 hours, instead of lengthy interrogations.
[QUOTE=AGMadsAG;40085342]How the hell did he make that ID card so quickly?[/QUOTE]
blank plastic cards, a laminator and a inkjet printer.
It's actually quite easy to make fake I.D. cards, if you're willing to put effort into it.
So, how did they know it was fake originally?

Did you read the article?
Oh, I missed that part.
Just another reason why if you do shit like this, you should never brag about it.
People who steal shit and post it on facebook are even better.
I once had to forge an NHS medical exemption certificate.
No, hear me out. I went to the hospital to pick up a certificate saying that I needed to take my insulin and needles on the plane in my hand luggage, along with bottles of water. The certificate they printed was filled out wrong - it had my name and age incorrect, and by the time I'd noticed I was due to get to the airport in about ten minutes, which I needed to get everything else sorted out. Now, given that one has to hand over a passport to cross these airports, that presented a problem. So I recreated the form, filled it in correctly, and forged the nurse's signature so it would be correct. I didn't even need to use the form, though.
Similarly, I once faked my school's website to say the snow had made it close for another day when I wanted a day off, which everyone remarkably fell for. Genuinely didn't think that would work.

I think I remember a picture posted on Facebook during the London riot of some guy who stole a bag of rice, the people who steal hilarious shit and brag about it are the best type.

It was in reply to the post above mine? Unless the "dude" he was calling a douche was the customer.
