The comment reminds me of this late night camera shop commercial we used to have here. At the end of it, the guy would point a camera at the..well.. camera.. that was filming the commercial, and take a picture. He'd then say "And I just took -your- picture."
Apparently whenever it aired, hundreds of angry late night TV viewers would call said camera shop and leave angry messages saying that the guy had no right to take their picture without permission.
I can just imagine; "Uh - what? No, see it doesn't work that way..."
