Okay... people are like the RE movies.

There is no gift more precious or rare in this world than true love. Treasure those who share it with you.
In short, "As a whole, they suck."
So I was really hoping yesterday would be a good day at work, I mean, man, the night before was like being punched in the bewb by an irate Pakistani monkey, so it would have to be, right? Well, it was. Happy happy. And I was pretty happy happy too. Went out to dinners with a colleague, good times, we both bitched about everything from politics and injustice of a poorly structured government made by and for a largely uneducated and uncaring mass of nincompoops, to whether or not Tom Welling needs to wear a shirt less often. Good times.
Feel free to debate that Tom Welling point openly...
Anywho, I get home...*harumpfs and slumps back in her chair* to find our front door has been kicked in, the frame splintered and my home eerily quiet. It's 830 in the AM and sunny, so I'm a bit on edge to begin with now, but this... this is not good, like feeling a lump not good. I went for a gun and looked upstairs for mah roomie, as his keys were still on the wall. I thanked Buddha I found him... well... okay I suppose. He was passed out on the bathroom floor with blood on his clothes, odd that, but not terribly unusual for either of us. So, I jostled him up and he was a bit surprised to learn of the situation downstairs... fun. We looked about and lo and behold we'd been robbed, happy day. *smirks* We're out the PS3, the 360, ALL our BluRays, except for 300... guess they already had that, all PS3 games, one disc o' Smallville, and his laundry basket. I guess the bastards needed something to carry it all in. Wouldn't want the poor dear to have to make two trips or anything. *sighs and sips her Tarantula* In toto, somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 to 4 grand in prizes, so... happy day.
The police have been most helpful, of course, using the latest crime-busting technology to- aw hell- even I can't go on like that, they haven't done jack, squat or shit. *laughs* This is why I can't watch CSI. It's like watching your Ex try and whine about how badly they were treated in life and relationships to somebody, and you know how much it's just a crock of horse manure built for playing on the sympathies of an unknowing simpleton... You wouldn't just sit there for that, would you? Why pay fifty bucks for an entire Season of that...? Ugh...
Anypoop, again... *sighs* the show must go on, yes? I'll be a bit busier than usual for a bit, but those who gots mah digits can grab me if they need to.
The laundry basket... Really? I mean... Really...?

The movies themselves are not bad, provided you can separate them from the games. If you're an avid fan of the games, the movies are going to suck no matter how hard you try. If you've never played the games, the movies are pretty damned sweet. it kills me inside that such an awesome movie set would sully the good name of such an awesome game series T_T
so torn!
Otherwise, its good you two are ok. Items can be replaced over time. It would have been a lot worse if you guys had been harmed.
Also, coolness that you have a gun :D
The only gun i own that would do any damage is a c02 powered airsoft that fires 6mm aluminum pellets. Doesn't sound like much but with a blast of compressed air behind it that bitch can punch holes in the ice flows on the river in winter imagine what it would do to a robber's face?
As to the rest, I have to agree, a shirtless Tom Welling would probably improve Smallville's standing in the ratings. He does cut a very nice representation of what most gals find just irresistable in a man. Tall, muscular, nice eyes and he- Oh...no, you were... Oh, I get it you were debating the wrong point, I see. Okay. No, sorry, those movies sucked.
Oh, and the robber would probably kill you.
On a side note, Nelson seems to have an injury we think he sustained dealing with the guy or guys that did this. He blacked out some of the night, doesn't remember how he got on the bathroom floor... also not unusual for our household, but... There's this cut along his arm, like a foot long, ends in a huge bruise.
Oh, and in your shoes, I'd aim fur tha ballz. Shoot 'em in the kibbles n'bits!
Oo- just watched this, and now I'm wondering if it's as funny as I think it is or do I really need to go to sleep?

I hope that somehow, that which has been stolen can be returned, and the people who have done this caught.. why humans can do these kind of things to one another will allways be beyond my grasp.. you have done nothing to wrong them, why should they wrong you?
If I ever finally manage to get over there.. I'm paying for some heavy duty locks and door frames.. or if you end up visiting here; paying for a bloody good hotel in a safe area
As to the rest, Well, the cops aren't much help. They took all of maybe one stab at finding any prints... not that that would matter, I know. The whole magick fingerprints thing only happens on T.V. I've had things stolen like... aw jeez... three times I think... from inside my home or car or whatever, and every time, the cops did me as much good as those birth control pills the U.S. sent to the Africas... *sighs*
As for the rest, try not to dwell on it love, please. I'm a big girl. *grrs* Tie my own sandals and everything.
You can always try and get in touch with Microsoft about the xbox and if they plug it in and go online, they could either track where it is or brick the system so they can't use it...assuming they are keeping it and not selling it for butt-drugs. (because obviously they have enormous asshole problems)
*hugs*
I hope at least you saw th coco Roos picture I posted on facebook and that makes you feel a tiny bit better
Anybutt... thank you for the idea on the 360. We'd spoken with Sony and they said something similar, but they need to talk with the cops, which means again, we are the mercy of the "assistance" of these uncaring ass-clowns.
*smiles and hugs back* I'ma check dat pitcher out soon, love. We've got to get together again soon, dammit.
I'm amazed they didn't steal any guns or anything else like that....
Well, I hope that you can get some assistance and get this sorted out soon. Also, keep the gamestops and radio shacks in the area aware that there are these items that are stoeln goods. Some people try to trade in systems and games to radio shack and gamestops for cash. It's faster and usually betterr prices than a pawn shop. If they went right for the gaming systems and games, that would be a wise idea to let them know about it. If you have the serial numbers on hand for the systems, let the local stores know, and once they get them in, they can alert the authorities and you can hopefully get your shit back.
That might work faster on your part instead of just waiting for the police to get around to it.
Call all the gamestops, radioshacks and other stores that take trade INS for game equipment and games and let them know. You might get really lucky and have an employee call you and let you know someone is trying to sell your shit to their store. They can not accept stolen goods, but can hang onto the equipment and issue an empty gift card to the customer and then you can come and get your stuff.
GAME STOP
GAME EXCHANGE
VINTAGE STOCK (of assholes)
...have all been notified of the situation. Trouble is, we only have serial #'s for the PS3, nothing else on hand. The cops won't do jackie o' dick without serial numbers it seems...
Thanks for the tip on the Radio Shack though, love. I hadn't thought about them, and I doubt Nelson's thought of that one, either.
We're pretty certain from everything that happened it has to be one of the peckers that moved in a few months ago. It was right around then, Nelson's bud Smitty had his tires slashed and then some anus rifled through stuff in mah car. They knew they could go in because my car wasn't there and probably just saw him stagger in too drunk to do anything, and in they came out they went with our stuff...
Still, I'd love to just go door to door like that... *chuckles* man...
You should move out of that neighborhood and into mine. The only thing we worry about is roving gangs of dogs. And they can normally be placated by belly rubs.
Oh... wait... nevermind.
I don't think I could get him to run away if I hit him with my boots all the time.
Actually he'd probably like that...
....
*Sneakily jots down the idea*
And dis be why I luff you.
Also hot diggity damn the fair's in town this week. And we have money. And tomorrow is free night. And Wed, the day he has off (and me too) is half price. FUKYEAH
Oo- and munnies are a good thing to have, especially when thar be whales aboard, captain! Wait... whales? The fair's in town... whales... *points left then right* ...how'd I go from that to Star Trek IV? ... *shrugs* Oh well, still... I wanna go to the fair too, dammit.
*stamps her foot* JAMI! Take me to the fair too, goddammit! I'm being sweet and cute, here!
I can haz powncez nao...?
You ARE coming to Oklacon right...?
So you should coooome. It'd be ten dollars total to get in, four bucks each adult and 2 for parkinnnng.
For some reason the fucks who did it left behind a 1000$ camera.....
And just like you described it, the police did jackshit....finger prints my virgin ass.
I seriously went "FML" that moment.
I am sorry to hear that happened hun *hugs tight* I wish this wouldnt have happened...
Did they give you that whole speech of "we don't want to get your hopes up, but..." sounding the whole time like they weren't about to even try to do a damn thing?
Nah, the assholes just didnt do much.
i asked a cop one time why the slogan "to protect and serve" was not on his cruiser...his response..."because we don't"
Well at least he was honest.....
Sweetie i'm sorry this has happened, i really wish there was something i could do...But you do know, that if you want to vent, i'm just a text, email, note, or phone call away :)
As for the Other thing? I'll make you a new one. It won't be exactly the same, but...it also won't go to your ex.
Also, since we have proof of it being delivered, we Could fight it. maybe...i dunno yet. mew.
:hguhug: anyways, once i'm settled in, i'll make ya a new one and work on the other things for you. :)
i'm just glad you're alright, as hopefully is your roommate.
Thank you love. Thank you very very much. It's sad to see, but true. It's so frustrating really. We had to talk the cop into fingerprinting anything, which he eventually decided to dust one edge of the TV, that's it. He took a few pics and basicaly told us to go out and look for our stuff ourselves... Which is proving as fruitful as dry humping a mannequin. No, not even that much... at least that's kinda fun. Shops won't talk to us, only the cops, cops won't get off their butts and talk to the shops because our "case has been deemed to be of low solvability"
That last bit was an actual factual statement taken from a letter from the chief of police we received. No joke.
So, we're out 4 grand in stuff and that's just that it seems... *sighs* Oh, and that whole now you don't feel your goods are secure in your home. I'm not worried for me, never have been. But this, this blows Serpentor...
*sighs* As to the rest, love don't you worry... I appreciate it, but it's not your fault it happened. Besides, there are other things to keep your talents at work on, love. *smiles*

Will Serpentor be all right?
Hmmm.... I'm not sure as to whether or not Serpentor ever was okay honestly. I mean.... he was genetically engineered going by blueprints hypnotically placed into the dreams of a deranged terrorist dentist who wears a monacle and disco bling... Nah, I'm sure he'll be fine.
