your bag gets stolen?

I was at Galaxy World playing KOF02, kicking ass as usual, and the next thing I know my bag is gone.

LUCKILY my DS or PSP wasn't in it. Just my ipod mini plus headphones, jacket, couple of ties, my new $120 runners.

Just happened about an hour ago. I'm sorta upset, but luckily I have a positive outlook on the whole incident. Normally I keep my wallet, psp, ds in it.

And my name tag badge thingo was around my neck......phew.

Wow, that really sucks

Hopefully you reported it and get it back soon!

It gets annoying.

I remember playing air hockey a couple years ago at the now defunct Playdium, I had shorts on that I didn't like having my wallet in. I put my wallet and keys on the side of the air hockey table, with my friends standing around. I figured it would be safe.

About halfway through some pudgy kid with a bad spiky-hair do nonchalantly walks up and places his hand over my wallet. With my quick reflexes training, I automatically grabbed his hand and pushed it away, giving him the evil eye.

I regret it now so much. I wanted to twist his arm and make him cry.

Moral of the story: I need to think faster.

i dun think its so much as thinking faster, just thinking smarter.

i never leave anything on the side. Whenever I play with merchandise it's in front of my shoes where I'm playing. It may get in the way somewhat, but it's safe there... never on the side.. no way.

Sorry to hear that, bobcat. I'm just grateful you didn't lose your DS and PSP. And now you can get an iPod Nano.

Losing expensive new shoes probably isn't fun though.

Is there anything we can do to help?

bobcat · 09-28-2005, 05:54 PM

Yes I have learned my lesson like Sony said. Always in front!

The shoes weren't expensive.....$100 AUS ain't that much, but $349 for my ipod is.

I normally leave my wallet in there, and if that was stolen I woulda gone nutz.

Well GM, there is something you could do. If you see somebody attempt to steal, kick them in the nuts, kick them in the nuts again, then tell them "this nuts kicking was delivered by bobcat in Sydney".

That would be pretty cool, and let me know when it happens of course.

I can steal things so good...I can spot it easily.

But that really sucks, I hope you find the guy and take his testicles as wall trophies.

Or something more appealing.

Don't get an iPod nano yet, there are alot of complaints about how easy it is to scratch the screen

He DID buy the PSP, here.

Yes, scratches are a part of my life. I can never keep things perfect.

However Sony have a new mp3 player that may be of appeal.

Or Samsung ?

I'm gonna look carefully, but I don't think I want another iPod. Apparently the Sony Mp3 player's battery life is better. And it's removable!!! That's very important to me.

Why isn't the iPod's battery removable? I don't think I want another iPod.
