Today, someone stole my laptop from my car. However, they were nice enough to relock the doors after they smashed in the window. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, someone broke into my car by smashing the driver's side window. I'd be less irritated if they had just used the door handle; the lock has been broken for years. FML
Today, my car was broken into. They broke the passenger side window and took my radio system. But they didn't take the remote for it. FML
Today, I parked my car to go inside to grab my wallet than I'd forgotten. In the short time it took me to do that, someone broke two of my car's windows. FML
Today, after having my car been broken into the day before because I didn't lock it, I made sure I locked my doors. When I got off shift and entered the parking lot, I noticed a brick had been thrown through my windshield and a note that said, "Nice Try". FML
Today, I took my new laptop into my house from my car, thinking it would be a too much of a target for kids grabbing it. I came home tonight to find my door kicked in, my laptop gone and my TV ripped from the wall. FML
Today, I replaced my car's windscreen wipers, after someone stole the last pair. After I finished, I went indoors for a drink. When I returned, the new ones had been stolen too. FML
Today, I wanted to go shopping in my new car that I bought just a month ago. When I stepped outside, I saw someone had smashed the driver side's window. They didn't even steal anything. FML
Today, I came out to find my truck window broken. They broke into my truck to yank out the stereo. It was unlocked the whole time. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my car being stolen. FML
Today, I went out to start my car to go to work. When it wouldn't start, I popped the hood to see what was wrong. Some kind individual took advantage of the fact that my window doesn't roll up, and stole my battery. FML

car windows shatter. its safety glass so in accidents you don't get impaled. if you break a window, it becomes a million pieces.

If they had to smash the window to get in dosent that mean that the door was locked the entire time?

The theif must have thought the laptop needed air, you should've cracked a window.

This is why you never, ever, under any circumstance, leave valuables in your car, and especially not in plain sight. If you have to get out of the car, then cover the items with a coat, towel, etc., or put them under the seat. Anything. Now, if the laptop was hidden and the thief still broke in, they could have just been targeting your car for whatever reason. It sucks, yes, but everyone knows (or should know) not to leave their valuables in plain sight in their vehicles.

The doors were probably already locked, assuming that's why they smashed the window...
