Stolen IPODS

Off topic, but don't go too far overboard - after all, we are watching...heh.

Do you think Apple should make an anti-theft system?

Thieves drive me crazy, I just can't get over their goddamn mindset, to just walk up and take shit. How the fuck does a person develop that attitude, to really feel like they just 'own' anything they can take. Criminals never feel they are doing something wrong, they know they're doing something against the law, but they usually have some reason why they justify it to themselves morally, and thieves are no exception.
I can understand (if not agree with) nearly any other crime, but thievery is just infuriating to me.

That really sucks for you to loose a 2k bike...

Heres a story that is kind of embarassing but still...

When I was like nine or ten the big thing was Gameboy colors and pokemon...I played pokemon on my gameboy like 24/7 it was terrible, probably worse than what I did with wolf since it was portable :P ...anyways I had like all of my pokemon guys at level 99 and stuff and then I left it at walmart in the games section...cause thats what i used to do was just sit there and play the game and one day I forgot it...big mistake, we called up there and noone turned it in...3 days later someone actually turned it in and I got it back...I was very lucky i got it back lol...but yah I was so sad the 2 or 3 days that I thought it was gone...

People can be cool sometimes...other times they are just plain retards and steal anything and everything....

Insurance picked up the tab on that bike(and since insurance is a scam in and of it self) they dropped the home owners insurance since I made a claim.

Insurance, how the hell is that industry not overhauled by the government? Name me one other industry were it is legal to drop a customer because they have the balls to use the service you are paying them for? Typical policy for home owners insurance is 2 claims in 5 years and they drop you. WTF? How is that legal?

Anyways.....

Tip: When you get to college, living with some buddies in some rented house, LOCK YOUR BEDROOM DOOR WHEN YOU ARE NOT IN THE ROOM. If you don't, more Ipods will go bye bye. I said not in your room, that does not mean in the house. You have a party and you are in the living room, someone is going through your shit in your room since it wasn't locked.

That really made me feel old. I was selling GBC and Pokémon crap as it came out at my 1st job out of college.

Anyhow, I had a bike stolen out of my driveway when I was a kid. It was locked up with a chain to a fence. It was nearly in the backyard. We didn't live in some sort of ratty neighborhood either.

I suspected for many years that it was a kid across the street, and when I saw the same bike during a block party in his garage in pieces I figured I was right.

Basic moral of my story - you can't trust anyone.

I could have used this tip ten years ago. A chunk of my CD collection, some Rollerblades and a few other things didn't make it to sophomore year with me. :(

Another one is You don't really know what you got till its gone...

Lets see what else has ever been stolen from me...

I remember a few years ago some dude stole my sled I used on this really big hill by my house all of the kids went sleding on when it snowed...Left it in the back yard and some homo went in my yard and went and played with it I guess....anyways we ended up finding it shattered and broken on the sidewalk up the street since it was plastic....:lol:

Oh well....I bet in other countries in Asia and europe stealing goes on just as much if not more...

Atleast In the US we don't have Terrorists walking around killing people....though there has to be some sitting around biding their time for whatever f'ed up crap they want to pull...

Anyways...just a little off topic but oh well...

( Does anyone know what the song is called when the guy from mad tv or saturday night live starts dancing on the roof of that car...They always show it at the movie thetres... )
