I was robbed... wheeeeee

My car stereo was stolen last night. Boy, ain't that just great.

I'm surprisingly less upset about it than I would expect - partially, I guess, because there isn't much getting upset would fix at this point. Actually, I'm more pissed that some thug mistreated my car (pulled the front panel off to get the stereo, and I'm guessing they didn't do it delicately) than I am about the radio being gone. They also took a bag of cables, some Famicom stuff, and a few other odds and ends. I think that bag was in the trunk, but the two sets of Samba de Amigo controllers went untouched (which would have gotten them more money than the cables.. stupid robbers!).

Maybe this is America's one last attempt at letting me know it doesn't want me back. *hehe*

from what I've heard, the cops in japan will let the robbers go and harass you for loitering. :)

The Famicom part sucks, because I already have somebody buying my Famicom collection, and now of course all of the games are no longer included. ^_^ I can't believe somebody would take a bag of cables, Famicom Disc Drive discs, and SegaCD games.

Aw crap, that I means I lost my Road Avenger and Final Fight SegaCD discs too. What lame robbers. *shakes fist*

Dude...losing my cash to a thug seems like no biggie now.

At least the Samba controllers are there...right? ^_^

Yeah, Samba controllers went untouched. Maybe the whole idea of taking two big boxes with plastic maraccas in them was just too "gay" for the thug. *hehe*

his loss =)

That's what I'm saying. He won't get crap for the SegaCD and Famicom stuff. Nobody in this city will know what half that stuff is. The Samba controller, OTOH, couldn't gotten him/her at LEAST $20 a set at a local used game shop I'm sure.

sorry to hear that. Even if you consider it petty, it still sucks that someone broke into your car and stole something.

that sucks and everything, but im sure this will make you feel better.


1. At age 14, i was jumped inside of McDonalds, and ended up having a 40oz bottle broken on my head and my hat stolen.

2. At age 15, i was robbed at gunpoint for my Champion sweatshirt, and 5 bucks, by about 10 Somoans (for you non Californians, they are big ass islander dudes) while waiting for the bus.

3. At 17, my whole car was stolen in downtown San Francisco, only to be found on milk crates the next day in Oakland.

all in all what happened to you is tame.

I would've gladly endured all of the above with a smile on my face to keep 2 pairs of maracas. ;)
