Angry Someone stole my stuff.

Sign in to disble this ad
Well within the last 12-24 hours someone must've broken into my house and stolen my ps2 and all my games. Funny they would leave the high def tv, dvd/entertainment center basses, and other crap I had out there, and just snag my ps2 and all the games. In the same time period someone also took ketchup and squirted it all over the windshield of my car. As much as I hate to say this, I have a very funny feeling that it was someone in my family that did all this.

The PS2 was a gift from a friend so I don't have the seriel number for it, but the person that gave me it is still going to look for it, nor do I have the receipts for all the games that were stolen, so I think calling the police would be a huge waste of time.

Also whoever did it actually took the time to take the dvd movies and put them where I had the games. HMM


First court and now someone steals my stuff, this is a great start to the new year!

Man that sucks. I'd still make a report to the police as if they do catch someone then they could be arrested for breaking and entering/trespass etc.

Could be worse. Someone could have stole your ketchup and squirted PS2 all over your car.



Wait, what?

I have a feeling we're getting about 10% of the story.

in my experiences, the police are a waste of time whether you have the receipts or not.

here's what you do: get your shotgun and park your car around the corner. turn all your lights off and act like there's nobody home

Did they steal the ketchup from you or did they provide their own? That would be a big clue as to who did it.

If they used their own it was probably some rotten kid whose daddy didn't whip him enough, but if they used yours... I'd buy a dog.

I have a feeling you don't know what you're talking about. I woke up today and my stuff was gone. What I said in the OP was the full story.

Yup. I was awake all night because I couldn't sleep. So someone in the house had to have taken it during the day when I was sleeping. That narrows it down to family members.

I was being sarcastic about someone breaking in while I was sleeping. If someone broke in I seriously doubt that the only thing missing would be a ps2 and all the games. They'd have taken the HD TV, and other more expensive goodies that were out there.
