Dear Douchebags,
You all suck. I’ve known this for a while but in the past month I’ve been victim of some of the ultimate douche-ness I’ve ever encountered. Specifically the theft of my wallet today.
Fine, take that 90 dollars, it’s not like I was going to use that to make good on an IOU. Hell, take my id and credit card, I definitely don’t leave on Friday for Egypt and need to pay for things there.
But what irks me the most is all the pictures of my parents in their youth and all my friends. Guess what, not all photos can be reprinted from your computer. I don’t know who you are or what your problem (problems?) is and honestly I don’t care. Hundreds of people manage to get through their tough, challenging lives without stealing.
Smarten up and stop being an asshole. You are a failure and I hate the fact that we breathe the same air. —The girl you screwed over

$90?? It’s a candy dish, Ned! Just candy!
Irreplacible photos of loved ones are too precious to leave the house in a wallet which can become lost or stolen, which the OP has learned the hard way. I can’t imagine not being able to get through one’s day at work or school without the need to look at photos of family and friends. Surely that can wait until one gets home again.
OP, perhaps family and friends may have duplicates, or in the case of older photos, negatives that can be used to produce copies. With so many idiots who feel the need to steal from others it is best to leave the house with only what you need for that day’s activities.
I had my purse stolen from my car not too long ago, and it really sucks trying to replace stuff. Mind you, I had nothing of value in my purse except my phone – but replacing all of my cards, my makeup, buying another wallet and purse was an expense I wish I didn’t have to pay. Feel your pain OP, hopefully you get everything replaced soon.
I had a girl friend who had her car broken into …actually they popped the lock & there was no sign of a break in. She seen her digital camera was still on the consol, her purse was between the seats & the few dollars it it were all still there.
She then figured…I must have stupidly left it unlocked !
But no, the next day she got a call from her credit card company, she’d racked up a couple grand in new electronic purchses…the thief had taken just 1 of her credit cards & left everything else alone.
I am one of those who find the real pain isn’t the loss of a few dollars…its replacing the drivers license & other ID, the creditcards, bankcards all of it a huge pain in the ass.
was his name mike, by the way.
Enjoy the bus ride up to Bayers Lake to replace your ID.
