The long arm of the law
Today, someone had put a lock on my bike. While I was trying to saw it off, the police drove by. I was arrested for trying to steal a bike and released four hours later when they figured out that it was actually my bike. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my bike was stolen. These things happen, so I went to work. On my walk to work, a girl pulls up on my bike and says I needed to fix the brakes, someone could kill themselves. She hands the bike to me and runs off. Not even 3 minutes pass before police surrounded me and accused me of stealing my own bike. FML
Today, I rode my bike to the store because I only had a few things to pick up. When I walked back out after five minutes, my bike was stolen. I had gone to the store to buy a new bike lock. FML
Today, I came home from work to find the lock to my bike busted and my bike stolen. The worst part was a nicer bike was sitting right next to it without a lock. FML
Today, I saw a bike locked to a short bollard, making it very easy to steal. Being as nice as I am, I stayed, hoping the owner would come soon and no one else would take it. Then the guy who bullied me in highschool showed up, asked me what I was doing, laughed at me, took the bike, and left. FML
Today, not only did someone steal my bike, they also managed to get wasted and drunkenly ride my stolen bike through my new screened-in front porch, destroying it and the bike. FML
Today, I saw my bike locked outside a Starbucks down the street from my house. It was stolen about 10 days ago from my communal laundry room. There was even a cop parked across the street, but I have no proof to show that bike even belonged to me. FML

Today, I decided to bike to work. I normally forget the key to my lock, so I leave it out back and hope that nobody takes it, and nobody does. I finally remembered my lock key so I chained it up. After my 7 hour shift, I walk to the back only to find the lock had been cut, and my bike was gone. FML
Today, I thought my car had been stolen because I couldn’t for the life of me find it in the office car park. I panicked and called the cops, only to remember I had taken my bike to work. FML
Today, my bike got stolen because I left my keys in the lock. On my way home, I saw my bike in front of a store, unlocked. I jumped on it, only to get punched in the face by the guy that had taken it, and got it stolen from me again. FML

I call bullshit on this one. First of all, why would someone put a lock on a stranger's bike? And second of all, I find it hard to believe anyone would carry a saw around with them all the time.

The lock thing happens quite often. You should probably get out more.

People do mean and pointless things all the time. Plus, the bike could have been near or at his house.

How much fun do you think it would be to lock up someone's bike so that can't use it? Even better if they get arrested for it.

Maybe the saw was on a pen knife or the op is a carpenter or something.

inb4 police insults (even though they did the right thing). @ guy who asked who would put a lock on a stranger's bike: There are douchebags in the world.

NO! The Police were perfectly at fault for not believing the guy who was sawing off a bike lock actually owned the bike. Its common courtesty that when a police officer sees someone sawing off a lock or breaking a window of a car that they first ask if the person is stealing the car. If they say no the police are supposed to leave and do nothing until it is reported stolen. Oh and all cops are *insert negative comment* blah blah blah the cops did x to my y yada yada yada **** the popo.

I can't tell if you're trolling or not 28, but they most certainly are not supposed to do nothing unless it's reported stolen.

I'm not so sure about that. There's probable cause AND tons of bikes are stolen every day and never retrieved.
