Today, I got mugged on the way to my 21st birthday party at a bar. I begged the thug to at least throw me my ID, only to have him laugh and run away singing, "Happy Birthday." FML

Don't worry OP, his luck will run out sooner or later. For all you know he might just be the guy who accidentally gets hit by a car a few blocks away, "accidentally".

Just have your friends bring booze to your house. It's much cheaper and it helps keep your alcoholism hidden, just in case you like the hooch a little too much.

That's why you carry more than one form of ID. Always expect something to happen (being mugged, leaving your wallet in a taxi, etc.) same as with your cash. Take what you need/plan to spend on the night, leave your cards at home and don't spend the money set aside for the way home. Life doesn't run smoothly so you need to prepare for anything to go wrong. But sorry to hear OP.

Yea, but If I get mugged, Id rather not have my extra form of ID stolen as well. That makes more sense with traveling outside the country, especially carrying cash, but you cant possibly foresee this happening.

If the OP carried more than one form of ID, he/she would have been mugged of those too. :0 I would have said, too bad they couldn't have had time to go back to their house and maybe grab their passport (an acceptable form of ID) but seeing that the OP is from the US could mean they don't own one at all. :P

OP could've hid the other ID somewhere else..

48: True, but if OP was viciously mugged, then all their pockets, bags, etc would've been checked/emptied. Most muggings aren't all peaceful like "yea bro, give me your money." FYL OP. I'm glad you're safe and hope your birthday got better :-/

Ya because hiding a piece of ID elsewhere is daily for most people, you tend to get mugged daily? Lol be realistic no one does that

Many places to hide a small piece of plastic. And really. If you live somewhere where extreme muggings happen frequently you shouldn't be putting yourself at risk.

At least now you have a decent 21st birthday story. most entail how drunk people got, yours is how drunk you didn't get the chance to get.
