About 20 years ago, when I was in middle school, some high schoolers stole a game (Halo for xbox) from me while I was walking home. I had borrowed it from someone at school.

Also fuck them.
I took my bike out for a trail ride, decided to stop at home for a quick refill of water before going out again. I was in my house for under 3 minutes and my bike was stolen from my enclosed front porch.
Reported it with serial number to the police and a stolen bike website but never heard anything back.
I was in college and had to start leaving for classes 20 minutes earlier. I was pretty angry at the time. Now l'll never leave a bike out of my sight unless it's locked indoors or with two U-locks.

Someone stole my digital camera when I was a kid. I left it near the window at the place we were staying at for our vacation and someone must have grabbed it from the outside while we were gone. I was probably pretty mad about it back then. Nothing since, that I can remember right now at least.
Hey, that's pretty good! I mean in the grand scheme of things.
I had a car broken into, but there wasnโt anything worth taking, so they slashed a tire on their way out. Luckily they left enough clear fingerprints that they were actually IDโd and had to pay for my slashed tire. They had broken into several cars in the area and I guess their fingerprints on my window was their undoing.
Frankly it was more insulting that they didnโt think any of my stuff was worth taking. :/
Bikes. It's always bikes
Someone stole my car's owner manual.
But not...the car? Eh...lucky?
And nothing else, not that i had much else in the car, but i had a dashcam and like a medical kit they didn't touch. Super weird.
Had a friend say that someone broke into their car to take sunglasses and nothing else. You know...the methed out heart wants, want the methed out heart wants.
Back in primary school someone stole one of my bakugan out of my bag. It was the snake trap which folded into a cylinder instead of a sphere like the normal ones. So sad.

Yeah, had a drug dealer burgle our apartment (just an opportunistic thing, spare keys had been left outside by a friend who was moving). Fortunately no-one was in, but it sucked to have to deal with all the damage and security.
We eventually tracked them down when they sold some stuff though and they were actually arrested and we got a few things back.
It was awesome the police actually raided them. Unfortunately the new government released them as prisoners with "non-violent" offences.

Yeah, about five minutes ago. It happens. I'd rather extend trust and sometimes be disappointed than live in paranoia.
=(
I don't know what I want to live in. Cause I have been open as a book, and gotten jacked up. Being closed off is most certainly not healthy either. And things are things. But I really wish people stayed in their lanes.
