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!

The same thing happened at my work. The cutlery drawer was always empty because people took them home.

The bonnet of my Peugeot 205, back in the day. The policeman did laugh.

Not exactly stolen, but the rear window of one of our cars just shattered into a thousand pieces once for no reason in the heat ( we thought it was a potential robbery , but no !)
Was very strange.

We had some friends over and after everyone left I realised the toilet rolls in the downstairs loo had all been nicked. I have literally no idea how they stole them, as we'd opened a brand new package of them and stored them under the basin in a cupboard. If I remember right it would've been 10 rolls at least.

Also once had coffee at a friend's house and nipped to the loo, when I came back she was rifling through my handbag and after leaving I noticed my spare tampons were missing. She was in her own home so clearly not an emergency, and she wasn't short on cash!

I laugh about it now. It was years ago in a Sainsbury's car park.

Brilliant!

A hair claw from the gym changing room. I dried my hair and left the hair claw by the hairdryer whilst I nipped back to my locker for my hair brush. Was away for literally five seconds. Went back, it was gone, changing room door gently closing.

When I was at uni in 2005 my partners car was broken into while I had a hospital appointment. They took the tape deck, luckily for me it was a smash and grab as I'd left my bag on the back seat with all my cards and ID.

When I was a kid I had a huge collection of Puppy in my Pocket animals. They were always kept together in one box. I had a little hamster cage with two hamsters, one sitting and one that rolled in the little hamster wheel. One of them went missing and when I went to my cousin's house saw it on a shelf in the kitchen. She didn't collect them so had obviously taken mine. I stole it back.

Someone stole the fog light of our ford focus. Took ages to notice !

The bumper off my car.

It was Stitch!

Well not so much stolen but temporarily availed themself of the use of my toothbrush.

Worked at a law firm, and we had a unisex toilet (small office). In the cupboard in the loo, I kept a toiletry bag that opened to reveal two see-through pockets with spare knickers & sanitary towels one side and toothbrush /toothpaste the other.

One day I was off out and decided to brush my teeth, when I opened my toiletries bag, my toothbrush was wet, and it had been shoved in the knickers side, leaving a toothpaste skid mark along my clean knickers.

This kept happening despite me putting big notices on my bag and telling the un-named culprit off in our team meeting.

The culprit did not confess nor did they stop (I only work with men). So I cleaned the toilet with my tooth brush and put it back in my toiletries bag and at the following meeting I announced what I had done. I had no shame!

I subsequently found out it was the senior partner brushing his teeth before a client meeting! Oh joy!

The very small tyre repair kit I’d left cable tied to the bike I had in Paris for getting to the station, but not the bike. Just petty.

When I was young someone, well more than one person, stole the York stone paving from our drive. When we went out in the morning it was fine, when everyone got home there was just earth. Took every slab.

Someone broke into my car through a window. I was cross :
A)because the boot was unlocked because it was broken so they could have got in without breaking the window, and
B) because they took an open pack of gummy bears but shunned the CD collection.
I felt judged.

My son had the reg plate lights stolen from
his car. I was washing up, looking out the window and wondering why two wires were hanging out from his boot handle!

I once had a rug stolen off a pony, went to turn them out in the morning, and the old fella's rug had gone. Nothing else was missing, all the much more expensive tack and equipment was still there. The rug was at least third hand when I got it, so it was not even a nice rug.

I think it’s sadder that someone felt the need to steal what they thought contained food :/

On holiday in Corfu, we had a ground floor apartment with a little terrace. Left our beach towels drying there overnight and someone nicked them! I'm not a posh beach towel person but we'd had these (lovely thick Harrods ones) for a wedding present. They left the kids crappy cartoon ones! Baffling and a bit inconvenient as it was only our second day.

When living in flat (also ground floor) burglar came in through open window one night. I woke up and must have disturbed him as he bolted grabbing a money box (just full of coppers, haha) and my young person's railcard (annoying as it had 10 months left). Even more annoying, they broke the window by letting it slam as they jumped out.

My car got stolen one night but it was snowing and car very old, silly arse didn't realise you needed to pull the choke out so dumped it further down the road. Police came and said it was probably young teens as they only nicked small cars where they could reach the pedals! Unfortunately I was about to go on maternity and couldn't afford to replace it until i went back to work. Steering lock was broken so it was written off.

When my boss was training for a triathlon someone stole his shoes out of the locker at swimming pool. Nothing special, just normal shoes!

I was only yesterday doubting my mum's belief that someone's stolen a doorstop and an old telephone directory from her house. I'll have to apologise - thieves are clearly MUCH less picky than I would've assumed!

Ages ago, my lovely pair of front-door bay trees and a full planter were nicked one night. They were fairly expensive but incredibly heavy. I was quite impressed that someone managed to get them away without making any noise.

Someone stole the concrete snails (don't ask!) from my Mum's front garden and I got the blame. I'd always hated them so she thought I'd moved them.

When she died som cheeky fuckers tried to steal the gates. We'd taken them off to get a skip on the drive and I happened to look out the window and saw them about to make off with them. My language wasn't too polite but the gates weren't taken.

When I was at Uni someone stole all my bras and knickers off the garden washing line. Was house sharing with two lads who sniggered and asked me to describe exactly what was missing (in their dreams!) so I have my suspicions. I was really broke and they cost loads to replace so I wasn’t laughing myself.

At my old office i bought a big jumbo bag of mini babybels. my particular weakness. left them in the office fridge and had rationed myself to one a day. Every single day I realised another one had also been taken. Dear heavens I was angry. I wanted to lie in wait to catch the thief red handed. I got crosser and crosser every day as more babybels went missing. Friday afternoon I was heading home, picked up my lap top bag i had kept in the office all week and realised that MY babybels were still neatly packed in their shopping bag I had stuffed into it on Monday.

Someone smashed my car window pre-2000 and stole my Five boy band tape 🤬

Once got in my Fiat Uno and realised someone had stolen the windscreen.
