The Joke's on Them

My car was broken into this weekend.  The theives broke in and stole my stereo.  They must have tought it was pretty fancy due to all the flashy lights on it.  The joke's on them... it only plays 8-tracks.   :D

I was going to get a new car soon anyway.  The stereo would not catch any money.  The only thing that sucks is that now I can't listen to the news while in the car.  And they stole 'The Wall' tape that was in the stereo.  :mad:
 
Similar thing happened to me in 1988. Someone stole my car stereo. What they didn't know was that a tape was in the deck, and the eject button was broken. So all you could listen to is that one tape, over and over and over. Not a terrible tape to be stuck with, mind you - it was The Who's Greatest Hits. But I'd been stuck listening to that damn tape for almost a year. The theives did me a favor!

To this day, just hearing the opening notes of "Squeeze Box" makes me sick...
 
I remember reading that from you before.  :)


As far as my situation is concerned, I hope the tape breaks and gets stuck inside.  If not that then maybe the idiots will think this tape is a new form of technology and try to sell it on ebay for a lot of money.
 
LOL, that brings back memories! A couple of years ago someone broke into my car and only took the FACE of my stereo, not even the whole thing, they also took my iPod car charger, but not the headphones. They also proceeded to tidy it up. No joke. They left a brown bag on the front seat with a couple of cans of organic beans that I had forgotten all about, and they rearranged all the junk in my back seat as a result of looking for more crap to steal. Oh, they also left my headphones in a neat circle in my back seat haha!

The punk may be a thief, but at least his momma taught him good manners.  :D

Perhaps he was hoping to get a recommendation to Onhell's friends from Onhell... :innocent:

I would have, but he left no references and he was employed for less than a year at his last job as burger flipper, so needless to say he was far from qualified.
 
I remember using super glue, to glue razors to the back of my cd and amps back in high school :innocent:  You know that way they smash your window after cutting themselves. :D
 
The best true car theft story I know of relates to Mr. Rogers.

According to a TV Guide piece on him, Fred Rogers drove a plain old Impala for years. One day, however, the car was stolen from the street near the TV station. When Rogers filed a police report, the story was picked up by every newspaper, radio and media outlet around town. Amazingly, within 48 hours the car was left in the exact spot where it was taken from, with an apology on the dashboard. It read, “If we’d known it was yours, we never would have taken it.”

I personally liked a recent newspaper item about a Norwegian car thief who somehow managed to lock herself into the car she was stealing without being able to start it. She had to call the police.

It's like something out of a Norway joke.
 
:D

That made me laugh...and the Norwegians wonder why we Swedes make fun of 'em...teehee...
