The biggest example I can think of is when my landlord was paying the electric bill at my last place. So of course my roommates just cranked the AC because "who cares it's free". It was uncomfortably cold and one or two of my roommates would just leave their windows open while it was on. Seriously I still can't believe those blatant attitudes. Sitting in my own house with sweatpants and a hoodie on while it's 105 outside.
For some reason, when I read this I though of the movie The Platform. If you've never seen it, it's aight. Essentially the platform has enough food for everyone in a tower. The platform moves down through the tower from top to bottom, and of course people take more than they need. Grotesque behavior ensues.
