I think someone stole my stuff

So man. I havent needed my backpack with all my school books in it all week, since its been spring break. But today I noticed that my adapter for my MP3 player was missing and I thought "Maybe I put it in my bag the last time I went to class" and lo and behold, my backpack that usually sits in the backseat was missing. So I check all around my car, and in my room, and around the house, and at work and I sent an e-mail to my professors about it.

But I know one of the back doors dosen't lock right all the time so the easiest conclusion I can jump to is that it was stolen. Because that tape adapter is missing as well, so is a ton of change from the cup holder. But theres nothing else missing. Not the hundreds of dollar of DnD books that where there from last weeks sessions, not the magic cards from months ago when I still went to Friday Night magic, not my MP3 player or Wallet that where in the glove box, and not my digital camera. All thats missing is some change I could have easily misplaced and my backpack. I just don't even know where to fucking look at this point and its driving me insane! And the though that it was stolen is even worse, I don't even know if it happened or not and I still feel really creeped out. And pissed off. Like I'd beat the shit out of the person if I find them, but man, of all the things to steal they took the 1 thing thats not really valuable, but nessicarry for me.

So have you guys ever had shit stolen from you? How did you feel? Did you get it back?

    Back when I was rocking the N64 in its prime, super rumble pack, RAM expansion for Perfect Dark, Blast Corps, you know, all the good shit my house got robbed. Motherfucker took my computer my N64 and all my games and controllers. Call the cops, get it investigated, etc.

    One week later I'm planning a sweet purchase of a new computer, setting up the build, get a call back from the police cops. They found some fucking dope fiend who stole my shit. Got my lame computer back, and he had pawned off all my god damn gaming equipment. Luckily my computer was still working, but he had changed the display theme to the weirdest puke green, perhaps to mirror his crackvision. Can't blame him though, nothing else to do in Tucson. What a shitty city.

    I don't even know if it was stolen or I'm just a fucking idiot and left it somewhere.....but I could SWEAR I had it when I left class last Thursday, and theres all the missing change.

    Hell for all I know, my Girlfriend might have accidently taken it with her when she left last week.

    once when I was working retail someone broke my passenger side window and stole the factory radio out of my shitty 1986 Chevy Cavalier.

    I mean, what? Why would you do that? It's not even worth pawning.

    I wish someone would steal my radio.. my CD player just broke and I've been driving in silence. Silence plus the repeated clicking of the CD drive before it blinks E R R and shuts off. What should I do guys. Should I just shove a Zune in the drive and hope it will play my MP3s?

    So all through my childhood I really wanted a My Little Pony.

    I had plenty of friends with MLPs, but not me.

    Anyway, when I was 9, my aunt bought me a knock-off MLP. It wasn't quite the same, but still, I treasured that thing.

    So when I went to Nottingham with my parents for my uncle's wedding, I took a new handbag with me and in that handbag I had my knock-off MLP.

    I knew it wasn't valuable, of course, so when we had to go to the cathedral for rehearsals, I left it in the car.

    When we returned to the car, the windows had been smashed, and the bag was missing. Nothing else was; my parents never keep anything of value in the car. Obviously someone had walked by, seen what looked like a lady's handbag on the back seat and assumed that it contained money/cards/jewellery. And all they got was my pony.

    I never did get a MLP.

    One time i was riding my bike home from work and ran into a pack of cuhraaaazy teens that love to party and love to hang out in inebriated groups of 20+ people and were it not for my calm and passive demeanor would have got my shit wrecked. Instead I just got my bike thrown onto the highway and shoved around a bit.
    Boy was that a close call.

    man, never leave shit in your car that someone may want
    especially stuff that's in a bag since they don't know what's in it and may do a smash and grab on the chance there's something valuable inside

    I was stupid when I was younger, and I've had windows broken just so someone could steal running shoes that were in a book bag and another time, textbooks

    don't leave shit in your car

    See, this is funny, because I used to leave tons of dvds, books and videogames in the back of my car overnight in bad neighborhoods all the time. We're talking easily three grand worth of shit just out in the open. One time someone even stole my car and left the shit in the back seat.

    Oh, I know. I'm just saying.

    Still, though. Someone did steal my DS and a bunch of my shit. That pissed me right the fuck off and is part of the reason I'm not going to PAX next year.

    I went to Disneyland Paris about six years ago on a school trip thing. There were three people in my room, myself included. We came back one evening to find we'd each had one thing stolen from us. My mobile phone, my friend's mini disc player and the other guy's remaining money. It really annoyed us because the only person who would of had access was the cleaner but Disneyland weren't interested in following it up. We just had to accept some cleaner was probably walking around with our stuff.

    My bike was once stolen.

    Brought it to work, and locked it up at some bicycle rack.

    Came back 8 hours later and found my lock cut in half and my bike gone.

    Walked all the way back home, cursing and muttering how I'd kill the asshole who stole my beloved bike.

    Bucketman, I sympathize for thee.

    i got my first big girl bike when i was 11
    like a real nice 4 speed that was gold, and amazing. it fit me perfect, and i put those little colorful doodads on the spokes that would make the clicky sound when you stopped as they fell back down against the rims

    anyways, i would lock it up outback, but being young and naiive to the ways of the world, i didn't realize that some assholes would go so far as to steal the seat, perfectly tailored to my little bum, or the back tire, with it's awesome doodads

    but they did, and i was heartbroken
