Just wanting to share my crappy ass story with you all.

So i worked all day today....

And in broad daylight some jack ass broke into my car and took freaking everything! On top of my 5 channel amp and two 12 inch subs, my backpack full of gamecube fun was in there. I'm sooo pissed off I could scream....

My copy of ToS... GONE
My copy of Pokemon Col. and Box GONE
Prince of Persia... GONE
Smash Bros.... GONE
Two Wavebirds... GONE
Two Game Link Cables... GONE
Four Memory Cards... GONE

On those memory cards were virtually all of my game saves... The only cards i didn't lose were my japanese card and original 59... Of all of my games, I only have saves for things like Luigi's Mansion and Monkey ball...

Hours and Hours of Smash bros. records....
Over 500 pokemon....
My initial 12 hours in ToS....
All my Mario Kart Scores...
All my F-Zero scores...
etc...
etc....
etc.....
GONE!

Argh argh argh...
Sorry bout this, I had to vent somewhere... :-/

If you stole them, kindly tell me your name so I can have your ass arrested AFTER I beat the living sh*t out of you.

Why did you have all that stuff in your car in the first place?

Pale · « **Reply #2 on:** July 25, 2004, 08:17:32 PM »

Playing gamecube at a friends after work... The worst part is, before i went into work in the morning, I went through the thought process and decided that the stuff would be safer in my car than in the break room..... great thinking there.

Murphy's Law in action. If you feel better, you can write a book full of "pale's laws" and make big money...

Try searching your local game shops that take trade-ins, some of there are unscrupulous and take stolen goods. If you can find one doing it, involve the Police. Especially if the memcards aren't deleted, there might be information identifying you as the original owner. Stores are required to store the information about sellers, so you could track down the thief that way.

I admit it! I stole them.

"Prince of Persia... GONE"

See, there's a good side to everything.

No, I'm just kidding... I know what it's like to have bad luck. My family never wants to ride in the same car with me again.

ThePerm · « **Reply #6 on:** July 26, 2004, 05:44:57 PM »

doesnt car insurance cover stolen goods?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #7 on:** July 26, 2004, 05:48:25 PM »

I was going to come in here and start a tirade about how bad my luck is but you've got it bad as well...I grant my sympathy...

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #8 on:** July 26, 2004, 05:58:25 PM »

You have my deepest condolences.

You know you only have one course of action now....You have to steal a bunch of money from the elderly to buy the stuff back. It's the only way.

joeamis · « **Reply #9 on:** July 26, 2004, 10:27:34 PM »

sorry to hear that, very unfortunate indeed. as long as we hear this we might as well try to help. i suspect your friend or someone else at work, are there any people that could've overheard you talking about games you had that you were going to play at your friends? note to everyone: be careful where you play the bass in your car loud. (not trying to be funny, just the case, atleast around where i live). i'd call the police and file a report if you haven't already (it's always best to get them to come to the actual scene or where (& soon) it took place). they might not do much, but you have a report filed still, and if they catch someone in the act if luck swings back your way it could be the same guy. and if your insurance covers any of it the report will help tons there too.

Car insurance can be hell expensive (in australia) if you are between the age of say 16-28 and even more expensive if your a male.

DrZoidberg · « **Reply #11 on:** July 27, 2004, 03:33:14 AM »

that's why I only have third party fire and theft <_< and a 2x4

Uncle Rich AiAi · « **Reply #12 on:** July 27, 2004, 03:43:29 AM »

Does your workplace have a carpark for customers? If so and you parked there, are there any surveillance cameras around the car park? If so, you might wanna ask security if there's anything caught on tape. Only way I can help.

Come on Bill, let loose with your report of bad luck. I know I am curious.

Same thing here in the US, same age deal thingy and if you're a male too.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #15 on:** July 27, 2004, 02:22:06 PM »

I don't think sex affects your insurance in Canada. Why does it make a difference in the US or Australia? Isn't that f*cking sexist?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #16 on:** July 27, 2004, 02:26:28 PM »

I think it's based on accident statistics, though I haven't the slightest clue on what they may be...

Ian Sane · « **Reply #17 on:** July 27, 2004, 02:31:34 PM »

"I think it's based on accident statistics, though I haven't the slightest clue on what they may be..."

That's what I figure. It's still sexist though. Odds are men drive more than women and thus get into more accidents. If it was the other way around and women had to pay more feminists would freak and that policy would never stick. I'm quite offended that an insurance company can legally assume that I have a higher risk of getting in an accident solely because I have a penis. Hell let's take more statistics and base insurance costs on religion, skin colour, and sexual orientation as well.

joeamis · « **Reply #18 on:** July 27, 2004, 03:07:40 PM »

yea it's quite absurd especially for those of us who've never had any accidents. it's even more annoying when 90% of the people I see driving bad or slow are women who are jabbing on cellphones while they drive. thank god they're making that illegal soon.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #19 on:** July 27, 2004, 03:13:24 PM »

Yes, it truely is unfair that those with a clean slate are left at the mercy of those who don't, but that's the kind of world we live in... =\

"I'm quite offended that an insurance company can legally assume that I have a higher risk of getting in an accident solely because I have a penis."

Ian, you just cant argue with the facts. With the penis comes great responsibility, most men (myself included) cannot handle the burden of such responsibility. I know my penis has been the sole cause of many of my misfortunes.

odifiend · « **Reply #21 on:** July 27, 2004, 04:34:39 PM »

lol. I want to say insurance companies were charging different prices to be insured based on 'statistics', but it did come under fire. I think insurance companies did the fair thing and raised the prices of women's insurance to meet that of men's. Got to love those egalitarian insurance companies...
EDIT: I know prices are still divided based on age and experience though.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #22 on:** July 27, 2004, 05:40:02 PM »

I know my penis has caused some driving problems for me.

Not really. But I could see how the situation might arise. . . so to speak

Zach · « **Reply #23 on:** July 27, 2004, 07:15:14 PM »

all my penis has caused is a minor fender bender (unfortunately it was my cr@ppy 95 geo Tracker, bumping into a shiny 99 COMARO). D@mn this thread is going downhill very fast.

oh yeah, pale, that really sucks that you got your stuff stolen. My sympathies to you

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #24 on:** July 27, 2004, 07:25:18 PM »

Why do I keep seeing talk about stolen goods, and penises?

Combining the two, was someone's penis stolen?
