Today, after not going out in over a year, I finally agreed to go out with some friends. I had a lot of fun and was very happy, up until when I was on my way back home and I noticed my car's sunroof had been stolen. FML

Pandafriend tells us more.

Op here! This is my first FML and I'm happy it got posted :) To answer some of your questions. How does a sunroof get stolen? I have no idea, but these Mexican thieves tend to be very creative, and quite handy by the looks of it. I guess they stole it because it's an expensive car piece, but the jokes on them because it has a serial number and technically if they try to sell it they could go to jail (if the correct laws were to be applied). But maybe they just sell it as scrap glass. And on the bright side I'm really glad they only stole the sunroof and not the whole car, and they didn't take anything from inside either, I was worried they might have taken any car papers but luckily they didn't. And the reason why I haven't gone out in such a long time, is because I didn't use to enjoy it, every time I went out I didn't have any fun, and also I find it very hard to maintain a conversation with friends let alone a stranger, and I like staying at home reading or here in FML. I was actually amazed about the fun I had. But if I go out more often now, I'm making a note to myself to never park in the street and always leave it with a valet parking.( Although a valet parking once stole my spare tire, but I didn't notice until I needed it, much after).

#29 - Well, I'd guess you're a shitty mechanic. Porsche, Honda and many other brands have car models with targa roofs which can be taken away. Since the OP is a woman, from Mexico, I wouldn't be surprised if she simply used an incorrect term regarding the sunroof.

Also #29, 1979 Mustangs have a removable sunroof

*looks at location* "Yup, seems legit." Don't worry I'm also Mexican.

You must have bad luck with cars and thieves

Calm down Donald Trump, how do you know they were "Mexican thieves" - I live in England, would you like me to ship over some bricks to you so you can start building the wall; I'll accept the payment you force off your "Mexican thieves" as a future debt right off.

Maybe the fact she's in MEXICO gave her the idea the thieves would be Mexican. Just like in America, you'd assume that the thief was American, no? SJW....

I ****** up - I apologise , I'm surrounded by SJW, it's just become my norm, I'm gonna go apologise to OP

Hahahaha I guess I did go all Donald Trump. But believe me, they're 100% Mexican. The question is: Was it a common thief? Or was it one of the police man I'm sure I saw around the corner?
