The Sting is On!

The WordPress Daily Prompt has the theme of Sting.  What kind of sting would it be?

Is it that ever pesky wasp, about to sting with its venomous personality?  Or is it the deception of the ruse that is so crucial to a well-played sting?

In this photo, it would appear that a crime was committed against the innocent looking can of carbonated beverage.  But is that really the case?  Or is the crime the ruse that has been played on the unknowing consumer, who thinks that the calorie count is what makes this a better choice?

I think it may be the latter….

    He was unfaithful, she found out. They argued in the carpark, dropped the drinks – she threw the engagement ring at him and tried to run. He hit her, put her in the trunk and drove off crushing the cans. Or else it is just a case of littering – guilty as charged. ps – you’ll find her body floating in the canal tomorrow, once it resurfaces.

    I like your theory: Or is the crime the ruse that has been played on the unknowing consumer, who thinks that the calorie count is what makes this a better choice?
