Stupid Thiefs (A Piggyback on the previous post)
After reading the previous post about Tide being stolen I wanted to see if anyone else had any stupid thief stories. Mine is...
In September 2001, I was about to move and we had started putting a bunch of stuff in our truck in front of our house, well someone broke in and stole all of our CD's. We had a huge jar of change in there that we were taking to Coinstar in the morning, a VHS player, a tv, and a bunch of other valuables, but all they took were our CD's. We were mad that they broke in but it was funny that they were only interested in my NSYNC CD's and my boyfriends country music CD's lol.

About 6 years ago another crack head stole my mini van while it was parked in front of my house on a Saturday morning. My two dogs and my foster golden never made a peep (and yes I was a dork for having a mini van but it was great for hauling around my fur balls!) Neighbor saw it all, called 911, and the jerk only got one block away before the cops driving one street over caught him! But not before he bled all over the interior-ick! God I want to get rid of our house & move to a nice neighborhood but ghetto houses just aren't selling in this economy. Why can't somebody steal my stupid house?!?
Moral of this story-smart theifs, ala Oceans Eleven, aren't on drugs. Also, crack head thiefs don't look like George Clooney or Brad Pitt.
This is an understatement. I'm sorry that jerkface broke into your garage Daves.
2 years ago I was working at one of the Cincy Public schools doing therapy. I left my car parked outside the school on the street to do a 1 hour group therapy--in that 1 hour someone broke into my car (in broad daylight), smashed my window, stole my GPS, all the spare change out of my ashtray (except the pennies...they left the pennies for me haha) and they took my last cigarette (I was a smoker at the time) but left the empty pack...not gunna lie I was PISSED to find out my car was broken into and even more pissed when I realized I couldnt even have a cigarette as I waited for the cops to come to give me a report for insurance reasons haha
I have two. When I was little, someone broke into my parent's boat and ransacked everything. They stole a TV and some other things of value, but not before they cooked themselves a snack. Unfortunately for them, their snack was the pack of hot dogs that accidently got left out during a week of hot summer heat and put back in the fridge for fish bait. Serves them right.
Not nearly as entertaining, but super creepy...when I lived in Clifton, we had a private drive off a quiet street. Someone broke into my car, didn't take my wallet, my cash, my CD's...no, they took my camera and the underwear out of my gym bag. We lived in a duplex and our landlord lived next door. I am pretttty f'ing sure it was home. Needless to say, I moved out that week. (There were numerous other creepy incidents, but that was the last straw!)
A few years ago H's car got broken into. They took his Ipod, charging cord, and tape player setup (his old car you could play a "tape" to listen to the Ipod through the car stereo). That was it. Not any of the rest of the expensive stuff he had laying around in the car. A few weeks later I was walking out to the same car to go to work on Saturday morning and they had now come back and took everything out of his center console and put it on the passenger seat. They took everything out of the glovebox and put it on the floor. WTH?! A few weeks after that, they broke into my car. All of the change was taken out of my tray and papers were strewn over the front of the car. Who does these things?! I can see the Ipod but the papers, really? And not to mention they opened up every single CD we both had and threw them throughout the car. How lame!
