I got a call from the office alarm company. Some goddamn cunt threw a rock through the glass front door and stole my bigass imac and the cashbox. The Cash box only had a couple hundred dollars in it, but all my work was done on that imac.
Goddamn thieves. I blame Ronald Reagan.
Ever been violated like that?
tl;dr - no not anally.

I made a TD for iphone and windows phone!
and I can't get down to the Apple Store until the weekend at the earliest because my car won't start
so no, but I'm also without access to my mac at the moment and it's frustrating
Get ye to a pawn shoppe
Well I mean it seems like somebody could back that one up.
also my friend's brother
why are people stealing macs
is it to play world of warcraft and photoshop
edit: oh wait this is at work
i'll shut up now
on a pc you have to open up your case, swap out your video card, change "jumpers"
on a mac you just pick it up, throw it away and go buy another one

The night started off okay, but about halfway through, this idiot and his three friends steal my iPod. So, I calmly asked him for it back. He proceeded to say that he didn't have it. I tell him that I watched him take it, and that he was a dumbass. He then tells me to fuck off. I walk away, not wanting to get into a fight, and as it turns out, I found it a half-hour later. At around the same time, this guy then walks up to me with his three buddies, and starts making fun of my Dad. Not in a sense where he made fun of my Dad for being fat. He made fun of my Dad, for dieing of prostate cancer. I nearly punched him right there. But, still trying to be the bigger man, I walk away. This guy decides that he doesn't like it when I don't laugh at his jokes, so he shoves me into a wall when I'm not looking. I say, "Fuck it, this is going to happen anyway", and I knock him over, put my hand around his throat and ask him to apologize. He looks at me and says no. Meanwhile, his buddy sees me as a threat and tackles me football style. I begin to knee him in the chest and put him in a headlock. The other two guys jump on me, one of them flips me over, and as this fat kid cries in corner about how I choked him, his friend breaks my collar bone and slams my head into the carpet. I pass out. Another friend tells me that as soon as I went down, all the guys stand up, and start cheering because the steelers won, and then they left the room. I woke up in my friends parents car, and three hours later I'm in the hospital. Now, I am currently in a sling, and I can't go to my highschool's annual dance at Knott's because some fat kid from a different school fucked me up.
Moral:
-God loves fat people and hates me
Also, dude, paragraphs.
You don't just watch someone take your shit, half-assedly ask for it back, and then walk away when they say no. I understand that there were three of them, but what you ought to have done was when they told you to fuck off, you should have left and came back with a steel pipe. You can't let people walk all over you like that droog.
And fuck "not wanting to get into a fight". If someone makes fun of your dad for dying of prostate cancer it's pretty much your duty to make sure he plays marbles with his teeth.
Wow I am in a violent mood tonight.

Seriously that thing was beautiful. I'd have left my girlfriend for it if it had only asked.
If anyone ever did break into my house it'd likely get much worse and it'd take me 10 minutes to leave my house because I'd lock, re-lock and check all the locks to everything.
My brother's car was the victim of an ipod theft spree. Like 4 cars got broken into at his school parking lot and the only things missing were ipods. My brother's wasn't in his car just the adapter so I guess they were just hoping there was one in there.
I miss World of Warcraft and Photoshop on a 24" screen I can tell you that much!
Other than that I'd just run a google earth search for "Pawn" businesses and check out the closest ones to your shop.
The guy walked around, ate someone's salad, and we caught him as he was leaving the office.
Fucker didn't steal shit, just ate a salad.
Fuuuck I didn't know you were a small business. I thought you meant it was stolen from an office or something.
Does Apple have any sort of financing, even for businesses?

I think there may be a place in town that will sell you the machine without interest if you have a claim. It just takes time to get that paperwork done and in the meantime my productivity is a little hampered (very crippled)
glass doors have been known to stop absolutely not a single person in history ever from breaking into anything
My roommate caught like a 12-year-old kid in his Jeep going through his CDs and chased him for like a quarter of a mile. Never saw a fat man run so fast and I doubt that kid did either.
I've been there.
However, if you're a small business I'm hoping to god that the mac didn't have 1) customer information on it and 2) was backed up to an external.
Beyond that, fucking hell.
I wish all thieves were as cheap.
We're going to get lights put in and maybe move me and my mac out of direct sight of anyone that walks in, so that should help.
Hopefully the Landlord will cover some if not all of the external lighting.
Depends on the insurer. Some are better than others at cutting you a cheque quickly.
EDIT: The cops just left. I get the feeling this is not going to be particularly high on the "to be solved" list.
tee hee
