Well it's all about perception, not getting caught and not increasing the background levels of drama to the point where it could affect you in an indirect way isn't it.
You could crap on your the next suburb's lawns every morning and have it blamed on stray dogs, cupcake invalids and the dementia ward of the old folks home, shoot the orphanage kids with an air-rifle every tuesday while your wife thinks you're out bowling, put a pin through your ex flatmate's wallet condom on a chance meeting through a mutual friend where he passes you his wallet to pay for his round of drinks because he's too drunk and he fathers an alcohol affected baby, wipe your cold sores over your customer's straws before you pass them out the drive through window, drown one of the next surburbs neighbourhood cats once a week with your bare hands after letting it come up for air and think it's going to live as well as painting smiley faces in blood on the doors of parent's houses of random kids you didn't like.. and as long as know one know's it's you and you're sufficiently removed from your trail of destruction there's no cause and effect that affects you. There is cause and effect.. sure cupcaking dementia patients might put an extra inch on the annual rainfall of the amazon rainforest basin as part of chaos theory but there's nothing that needs to take it back to you in some negative way.. Hell all that time spent in the old folk's home and you'll look like a caring guy to some nurse and pick up a hot date as well as have one of the oldies mistake you for their child and sign over their life savings to you.
It's only negative cause and effect when you fuck someone out of money and they glass you in a pub or you fuck someone's wife, she rats on you and the husband takes a baseball bat to you. Thats not karma.. thats just commonsense repercussions for your actions.. Repercussions people like to call karma. There is no force tallying up a balance sheet of rights and wrongs and trying to make them balance out. That should be so incredibly obvious.
