Today, I went bowling. I noticed a 10-year-old holding an iPod Touch which had the exact same customized case with my name on it as my iPod that was stolen a year ago at the same bowling centre. Even better, the parents yelled at me for accusing him. I got kicked out the bowling centre. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my "friend" came over. I caught him trying to steal my iPod on the way out. Proud of myself for catching him, I asked him to leave, only to realize that I had forgotten to actually take the iPod back from him before he left. FML
Today, I found a purse in the school bathroom. When I looked inside, there was an iPod along with some other expensive stuff in it. I took it to the office so the right owner would get it back. The owner passed me in the hall on the way there; she freaked out and punched me in the face. FML
Today, I found the iPod touch that my mother claimed was stolen at the mall a few years ago, lying on her bed, still logged in to her Facebook. Thanks, mom. FML
Today, I was caught stealing a video game. I realized after my parents were called that the case was actually empty. FML
Today, I had three things stolen: my phone, my iPod, and my girlfriend. All by the same guy. FML
Today, I went bowling. The guy at the lane next to us was bowling by himself and had a few of his own bowling balls, and he had one that looked like a yin-yang and it looked very cool spinning down the lane into the pins. Not really thinking, I casually said to him, "Hey, I like your balls." FML
Today, my boyfriend stole a guy's cookie. As revenge, he stole my iPod. FML
Today, my little brother came into my room and hit me over the head with his baseball bat. He then dropped the bat onto my floor and ran crying into my mother's room proclaiming I stole his bat and beat him with it for fun. FML
Today, while I was walking across a bridge, a prepubescent middle schooler grabbed my phone from my hand and threw it into the water. His friend filmed it, high-fived him, and they both ran off. I got that phone less than a week ago. FML
Today, I went bowling with my friends. As I was about to take my turn, my friend came up behind me and yelled in my ear, "Don't mess up!" Startled, I dropped the ball on my foot. FML

Some parents don't deserve to be parents

They went back to the scene of the crime without even trying to disguise the stolen goods? FYL

I have come to the conclusion that those voting YDI are illiterate.

I definitely would have slapped the shit out of that kid. Kudos to your self-control. I have a lot of self-control, but certainly not enough to not go into a blind rage at such stupidity and break some shit.

i agree with #131, definitely have more patience and self-control than i do. those parents are awful, awful people, they see their kid playing with an ipod that has ANOTHER PERSON'S NAME written on it, and they actually have the gall to deny their kid did anything wrong? Please, no one's that stupid. They obviously never taught their kid to respect other people or their property. Reading fml's like this just makes me hate children more, as if i actually needed more reasons, and i'm not a fan of parents either. don't get me wrong, the parent as a person may be just fine - just when they go into "parent mode", that's when i can't stand them. if you had your driver's license you could have shown that to the parents, but since they're such unreasonable people i doubt that would have convinced them.

I applaud you for such restraint. And I thank you for taking charge and actually doing something for yourself. Most people these days don't even know what that means; it's refreshing to find someone who does.

Why did you not call the cops right there and then on them? Confront them AND the staff on the spot. My GF once dropped her phone switching busses but did not realize it immediatly, when she returned back she found her unique case on the ground and a woman holding her phone trying to pick it up, at first she went in with thank you for picking up my phone, but the woman clamied it was hers... Even with my GF own picture as background.... The woman tried to scare her with daring to call the cops but my GF was fine with it, she ended up having to fight to get her phone back. But i would have called the cops on them there and then. Now you have to hope the cops do their work or parents dont erase evidence before they do. Anyway good luck.

Wow.. That's good, hopefully you get it back. It's sad, the kid's parents are definitely in for a treat if they allow him to steal easily at such a young age. Real sad

Ask for the security

Report that and the serial number to the police. If it's true and your story checks out you can get it back. My car 5 years ago was broken into my iPod video was stolen amongst other things, I reported it to the police with the serial number. 3 weeks later I got a phone call from a police detective some guy about an hour from where I live was trying to pawn it with other stolen goods and I got my iPod back I couldn't believe it. If it's truly yours and you have the serial number to prove it contact the police and the bowling alley you just may get it back !!

You should have called the cops.

It was over a year ago and it is possible that someone would have the same case that you had. It's a loss get over it
