Today, I picked up a hitchhiker. He was well dressed, and seemed trustworthy. As soon as he got in, he pulled out a gun and stole my wallet and car. All of this occurred in front of a sign warning against picking up hitchhikers. FML

Today, I felt a tug on my backpack and found my wallet missing. A nice stranger pointed to a guy running down the stairs and said "There goes the guy who took your wallet!" I ran to catch the supposed offender. The 'nice' stranger was the actual offender distracting me as he got away. FML
Today, a man tried to mug me. I actually apologized to him for not having my wallet on me. FML
Today, I was on my bike. As I'm rolling through an intersection, some asshat in a pickup runs the red light and hits me. Instead of getting out and helping me, the guy hops out, takes a look at me lying in the street, steals my hat and drives off. That was my favorite hat. FML

Whenever I drive by a hitchhiker, not helping them makes me feel guilty. But at the same time, you never know who they are or what they could do.

Erm.. Isn't it illegal to pick up hitchhikers? I'm pretty sure it is in my state... But definitely, YDI that one.

Only if you live in New Jersey or Delaware ;) Every other state has laws permitting hitchhiking, though there are sometimes limitations as to where you can do it.

I'm not married. Then what's with the ring? Makes strangers think I'm trustworthy. Are you? No...

As soon as I read that you picked up a hitchhiker, I clicked YDI. Idiot...Of course they APPEAR trustworthy - it's part of the illusion to get suckers like you to pick them up!

Sorry that the OP had such a bad experience with hitchhikers...I've had more than my fair share of good ones, and it's sad when you draw the short stick. Remember karma, though! It's not always instant, but you always get back what you put in. Thanks OP for being the sort of person who lends a hand when they can, you'll get what's yours in the end! :)
