A few years ago, my mom and I went on vacation with a couple of our cousins. One was really nice and sweet, the other one, C, just drove me up the wall. She bugged me and nagged me the whole time, and once told me I couldn't go into a store with her and my mom when they needed to buy a camera memory card (seriously, what the hell? I was 21 at the time). I went in just to spite her, and my mom tried to undermine her whenever she tried to control me. That's not what makes her an SC though. We went to Boston, and had a blast despite her. We stayed at a really nice hotel with a full breakfast buffet. They had glasses for juice, and C pretty much filled her bag with them. "Oh, they expect you to take them." I was so horrified, I didn't want to be there when she got caught, so I went back to the room. She didn't get caught, surprisingly. We went to Cheers, and my cousin tried to talk my mom into having a beer so she could steal the mug. My mom refused of course. Then my cousin goes, "Give me your purse" so my mom hands over her purse, and C sticks some silverware into it. 
My mom grabs the bag back and goes, "Listen, if you want to steal, that's your issue, but you won't do it with my purse." I wanted to keep my Cheers rootbeer bottle, so of course she's like "Just stick it in your bag". I asked the waitress, who was very nice and said I could have it. See? It's just as easy to ask. She also stole condiments from a patio table, and once when she was driving, she put the car on cruise control and stuck her legs out the window. We managed to have a good vacation in spite of her, but I don't like being put into the situation where you have to decide what you should do when you see a relative stealing. My mom, my other cousin and I talk about going on another trip, and actually joke about inviting C along. Not gonna happen.
I mean, doesn't she realize people have to pay for these glasses? Or those Cheers beer mugs? You can buy the mugs in the gift shop which pretty much proves to me they are not up for grabs, not that I'd think so anyway. Sorry about the rant, but I just happened to be thinking about it and it occurred to me that C is a Sucky Customer.
