Dear Not-Nice Person Who Took My Stuff,If you are starving, or if you have kids who otherwise will not receive any Christmas presents, I have nothing against your Ebaying the contents of the bag you found on a mall bench last night.
Otherwise, however, you are a true lowlife. There was a Lands End return slip in that bag - you could have taken it over to Sears (as my daughter was about to do for me) and turned it in. Or you could have brought it to the mall management office. That's what I would have done. You know why I would have done that? Because the stuff in the bag wouldn't have been mine. Yeah. You took someone else's stuff. As in, it's not yours.
Maybe you just happen to be a size 6 (petite) and decided you'd like to wear the clothes yourself. Well, be forewarned: when you bend over in those pants, people can see your butt. I hope everyone sees your butt and laughs at you. Yeah. And those white blouses (2 different sizes) that I ordered for my daughter to try for her orchestra performance and that she didn't like (not that she likes anything I pick out)? I hope the first time you wear them, you spill stuff on them that stains and doesn't come off.
Why? Because those clothes aren't yours, that's why. They were mine, and I was about to return them and be refunded my money. Money that I've been working hard for, thanks. Somehow, when I took that job at the bookstore, I didn't think I'd be spending all the money I earned the first 2 weeks to clothe a perfect stranger. I mean, I believe in tithing and all; just not 100 percent, all right?
Forget the job - I think I'll just cruise the mall and take other people's stuff. Why work?
This reminds me of the time someone broke into my husband's trunk and stole all the Christmas gifts for our toddlers. Really? You're going to give stolen gifts to babies?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry this happened to you.
Crum. I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteSorry, that sucks!
ReplyDeleteOh that is horrible!
ReplyDeleteI hope that person learns Karma is a BITCH! Especially at Christmas!
That's really awful, especially this time of year. It only takes one creep to give the rest of us a serious case of cynical.
ReplyDeleteI'm just wishing I was a size 6 petite.
ReplyDeleteBut I'm also really sorry someone stole your bag...that's all kinds of rude.
Well, that sucks, hope they are wearing their nasty undies when they wear the pants that show their bum.
ReplyDeleteSome people have a hard time remembering that not everything belongs to them.
ReplyDeleteLow-life doesn't even begin to describe it. So sorry.
Yuck. So sorry this happened.
ReplyDeleteBev
Kharma is a wonderful thing....
ReplyDeleteI wonder how it will come back and bite their bum?
.....one thing is for sure....it will!
I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteOnce someone stole my daughter's scriptures at church! I kept telling myself that my daughter just lost them and that it was a coincidence another young lady had the same scripture case. A few weeks later I learned the same young lady had been caught with several items belonging to others, including wallets and a BlackBerry!
Stealing does suck!
That sucks! I'm so sorry!
ReplyDeleteI hope they get frost bite on their butt crack, while they are wearing your low rider jeans.
ReplyDeleteThat does suck. I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteThat DOES sucketh mightily!
ReplyDeleteOh man, How sucktastic is that?
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 12 I spent a weekend selling some earrings I made at a craft sale so I could earn money for Christmas. I earned $12. Then I went to the mall to see what I could get with it, and it was stolen.
ReplyDeleteThat sucks. What is wrong with people? Is it the economy? We had someone try to break into our home 2 months ago--WHILE WE WERE HOME, lights on, everything. Are people insane?
ReplyDeleteThat is such a drag!
ReplyDeleteOh man. That bites. Around here there's some lady stealing the Salvation Army kettles. Tis the season.
ReplyDeleteThat is majorly the suck.
ReplyDeleteOur mini-van was stolen twice and we got it back both times.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad. I hope it was a very small very needy person.
ReplyDeleteDid you ever see the episode of Dragnet where the Baby Jesus is stolen from the manger and it turns out a little boy who asked for a wagon for Christmas got the wagon and took Baby Jesus for a ride as he had promised he would? Sgt. Friday was very upset when Baby Jesus was gone. Then when Baby Jesus came back in the wagon, Sgt. Friday felt like a goof.
It was all very touching.
Maybe the Baby Jesus is wearing your clothes.
Mean people are stupid. Hate them. Jerks.
ReplyDeleteI've got nothing good to say.
ReplyDeleteNow, THAT is crummy! I hope maybe you bought that stuff with a card that has some kind of insurance on your purchases, because if you did, maybe you can get some of that hard earned cash back. I'd check into it. UGH! That makes me sick!
ReplyDeleteYour title says it all. So sorry - it happened once to me at the mall and really made me peeved. A lot. I feel you!
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone else- that really sucked. Sorry it happened to you. :(
ReplyDeleteYou are so kind to clothe a perfect stranger. Just the Christmas spirit.
ReplyDeleteThat's happened to me too, I think to most of us. To calm myself down I always say, "They must have needed it more than me,"
ReplyDeleteHELLO ARE U LISTENING PARKING VALETS IN L.A.??????????
