13161814, the best thing you ever had stolen from you?
Posted by mistermaxxx08, Thu Jun-01-17 10:51 PM
ever have something that was valuable to you and it just got jacked?

back in the day a buddy jacked a classic Hot Wheels from me and it was a tough loss. a vintage rose royce.

the worst thing i had lost was a great collection of old Michael Jackson magazines which the airlines lost back in the 80's. had a bunch of rare Jacksons magazines.

My co-worker said his "neighbor" kept hinting that he wanted to roll through and smoke. My co-worker and all his roommates finally gave in, and dude came through, but never smoked. He came to work after the weekend with everything he had on on Friday, cuz dude came back and got ev-uh-ree-thang (c) Katt Williams.

Pictures looked like all 5 of them niggas had moved out.

13161828, My dress-out clothes for Intro to Team Sports (aka 9th grade P.E.)
Posted by JFrost1117, Fri Jun-02-17 01:54 AM
It's like, the first few weeks of 9th grade so, pre- any growth spurt. I guess I forgot to lock my locker one Friday, and I come back on Monday, and my locker is cleaned out like I didn't exist before that day. I tell coach, who couldn't give 2 shits of a fuck, and his only resolution is "Welp, keep looking." Less than 5 minutes, I see this senior from the basketball team with like, my entire tiny outfit on. Shirt is completely stretched, windbreaker pants looking like liquid leggings. I tell coach, and he calls dude over and goes "James, you steal this kid's clothes?" Nigga is like "Nah coach, you know I wouldn't do that!" Coach goes "Welp, he said he didn't do it." and that's the end of his involvement. I never brought more clothes, and failed P.E. I couldn't steal them back, because after I accused him, he stopped using a locker and brought my dress out clothes in his duffle bag. I just used PE as 90 minutes of nap time.

For the remainder of my 4 years of HS, I would intentionally bump into coach in the hallway and call him a "motherfucking BITCH" every time, for not doing the least amount of work to get my shit back.

I had left it at a friends house in boxes due to travel. Someone (I think it was him - but never settled) sold them to a second hand store in town.

I came in looking for them and they gave them all back to me except 5.

They took a loss - but I'd spent so much money their there was no fight.

Gave it to a friend to check-in at a club; in his infinite wisdom he didn't fancy the queue, pocketed the £2 and stashed our coats behind a sofa.

Never saw them again.

That was about 10 years ago. I've not fully forgiven him.

during my HS basketball game someone went into the locker room and stole it.

The Bishop of our crew was named Christian. Dude had the nerve to ask me where my walkman was and then said "you think I stole it don't you?"

What made it worse was I bought if from my cousin and I know it was hot... but still.

That's a good friend right there.

Kid in my neighborhood got his bike stolen, he normally walks around with a few other kids. I'm like "Ya'll not gonna roll together and see who took it?"

It's like they couldn't grasp that concept of homies looking out for each other.

How disabled was this person? Did he really need a crutch or were you just joking around? I'm curious how someone that would need a crutch would able be to sneak around unnoticed to rob someone.

>lokey prophet but i digress

Also, what does this mean?
13162080, he really did have crutches but
Posted by willi_dudat, Fri Jun-02-17 01:12 PM
he also had my jacket so for my reputation sake as well as my

parents' disdain, i wasn't letting that sht ride

-and-

starter eventually became a product of wal-mart in like 2000 or so

not the insulated jackets like what they sold back when but the brand

that's what i meant when i say he was a 'lowkey prophet'

Posted by flipnile, Fri Jun-02-17 10:43 AM
Outside playing with this random kid, my grandmom calls me so I run over to the house to see what she wants (leaving my transformer). Came back like 30 seconds later and this dude was gone with my toy. Figured out where he lived and he had his punk-ass older brother lie and say he ain't live there (I was like 8, older brother was like 14).

I don't hold too many grudges, but I'd tap that fools jaw if I saw him 30 years later.

It came out like months after his passing and was (AND STILL IS) an amazing read. It was a Dilla / Public enemy issue but.

I'm *positive* my GF at that time threw it away and didn't want to admit it because I was pretty mad when I noticed it was missing.

Fuck u Amanda I knew u threw that out

Posted by DJR, Sat Jun-03-17 05:07 PM
My cousin, while living with us for like 2 months, tried to steal them before leaving. My mother/his mother caught him and I got them back.

I was hurt that he would steal from me though, we were like brothers and best friends. I had a lot of sympathy for him because he had a tough life and lots of issues. But I was so disappointed and mad and really couldn't understand why he would do that to me.

He got caught stealing my grandpa's Ken Griffey Jr. Upper Deck rookie(that was THE card back then) too around that same time. SMH.

stolen while working as a delivery driver for Jimmy John's, right out of the parking lot. turned up a month later outside a Super 8 beat to shit and everything ripped out of it. in that sense, technically only the sound system was forever stolen but the car only lasted another two months before it was totaled from radiator and transmission damage.


that was six, seven years ago and I haven't had a car since.

people sold my cd collection I left with them when I moved

broke into my house and took my sisters ps2 ( claimed he was high)

people ripped out the stove, sink, and cabinets of my old house to sell for scrap metal in the house I was trying to take care of

and stole an idea from a video treatment I wrote for then caused drama so he never had to shoot the video ( same nigga that broke in my house when we were younger )

and all of these were done by family/friends

and to lighten the mood, the first time I had a bike stolen my friend told me he saw the fool on my bike. . . when he came over to his house to play PS1 lmao
