Whats the oddest thing someone has stolen from you?

[comedycentral]

Reading this story about a door handle stolen from a cafe made me wonder what the oddest thing someone has stolen from you? I once had some of my homemade CDs stolen from me on a train. Why would you steal someone’s really obvious crappy homemade megamix with their felt-tip handwriting scrawl all over it? I hope it skipped for them on the good songs!

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdjekzxj4y4o I hope they get their handles back!

There's an Only Fools and Horses sketch featuring David Beckham (think it was for Comic Relief) and Trigger claims his broom has lasted 20 years. He has replaced the handle and the brush a few times though. 😂

Our wooden back garden gate 😂 We were on a new build estate so we imagined that someone else damaged their own gate and figured they’d steal ours in the night to replace it! Never been so freaked out as when I looked out the window that morning and there was no gate 😨

It was a right hassle to sort as well - not standard gate size so we had to get one made especially and the nearest place that would do it was in the next county! Probably the reason those twats nicked ours 😡

I know of an establishment where the urinal cakes were stolen from the men's room.

The wheel from my sellotape dispenser. I work in a primary school and it happened over the holidays. It was definitely one of the other teachers.

My mother lives in a gated community. Someone swapped her new patio furniture for their decrepit set.

I was staying at the ISH in London in the 90s and someone stole my orange “Call me Mr. Turkey” tshirt from the laundry. I still wonder about it sometimes and I still want it back.

A friend came to stay and stole a sheet off the bed she was sleeping in. Not the fitted bottom sheet but the plain cream top sheet. 🤷‍♀️

A bonsai tree, it was on my windowsill in the kitchen with the window open. Someone passing decided they wanted it instead.

My washing line. Literally snipped at each end

Suspect it'll be more 'valuable' to this kind of thief when you've thoroughly used it ...

It’s not really odd is it the owner of the business probably got on his bad side. Petty

I had an old plastic pot containing a dead fushia stolen from my doorstep.
After a burglary at my parents my mum noticed that only one of each of her 50+ pairs of earrings had been taken!
Amongst strange things taken from my sister in laws house following a burglary were a box set of Everybody loves Raymond and several half used bottles of perfume.

The mum probably didn't know. I bet the thief still believed in the tooth fairy - and that'll be the day she learned the truth!

Also about 40 years ago my husband’s ancient ford cortina was taken from its space in a multi storey and left by the exit barrier, the thief made off with his tax disc.

I guess the person who stole your husband's car suddenly realized he didn't have the ticket to get the car out the car park. Didn't think that one through !
The tax disc is weird as the registration number was always written on them , unless he or she doctored it later on with some tipex or something like that.
A bizarre thing to steal though unless they just wanted the holder it was in.

A very basic window planter with 2 little flowers in. It was only outside half an hour!
I was so appalled that I went walking round looking for it 😂

So many thieves about

MIL stole 2 drinking glasses because she liked them. They were bog standard ones from Morrisons.

She stole a paper menu from a pub in a rural location that she’d never visit again and a matchbook which she left behind when she realised it was free

My car bonnet....

Having our garage broken into did shock me ( they stole an old pedal bike ) as nobody heard anything and that old door was creaky and close to our house. It did make us save up and change over to a roller type door , which I'm sure isn't entirely burglar proof , but might deter people a bit. You do feel violated.
I'm not sure what makes people want to steal things, even if they try and justify it.

My neighbour's cat came home with somebody's ham sandwich which must have confused them.

My father's cat used to break into neighbouring houses and steal socks.

Some female stole a tablecloth from a yard sale I was doing to raise money for charity. I was pretty disgusted and one of my friend's said 'well she made herself a thief for $3' which was kind of sad really.

My snow leopard pattern fleece pjs from the washing line 😱

The bicycle seats and knickers are so gross.

A handful of little soft toys from a car (had been sitting in the well of the car door under the window).
Most were free promotional ones and about 8cm high - think the PG tips knitted monkey and so on - but one of them was quite unusual and probably hard to obtain, for this reason.

She didn't want it after realising she hadn't stolen it? 😂😂
