Today, I noticed that whenever I don't give the homeless guy around the corner some money, my side mirrors get stolen. FML
I agree, your life sucks 28 820
You deserved it 2 996

nohobo tells us more.

OP here. Only the reflective glass parts get stolen and it takes 10 seconds and a screwdriver. Dealership ones are sold on the black market for half price, though I got the cheap chinese plastic ones and those go missing too. Out of spite I think, since they have my plate number on them and are worth nothing. The police won't do anything, it's a common theft; they told me to get better insurance -_- . Car alarm wouldn't work either, the thief would be gone by the time I arrive. They got stolen 3 times, all nights after I didn't give the guy anything. And the guy is pretty much harassing me now. Like coming to my car to offer to carry my bags or opening my door (creepy, right?). I tried to firmly but politely tell him to leave me alone but nada. Gonna report him for harassment and if he comes near me again he'll get a face full of pepper spray, since that's probably the only way he'll understand. Sorry for the wall of text, and thanks for your supportive/funny comments, they've made my day :D

So you have given him some money before and he still stole your side mirrors? Dude deserves to be homeless.

How do you steal someone's side mirrors? I've never seen them be removable on any car.

With enough force, anything is removable.

That's an... interesting choice of things to steal!

Remember, objects in the mirror are closer (to getting ripped off) than they appear to be

OP: Please don't hurt my mirrors..I will give you the money you want.. Homeless guy: that's right ...now come on give me your money...

Tell him you can't afford to give him money any more because you keep having to buy side mirrors for your car. That might slow him up. That and try to catch him in the act.

Well if you know it's him doing it, why don't you call the cops? If they say you need proof, just set up a camera the next time you don't give him money.

dam what an ass he should be grateful for what you give him

Wow. How many times have you replaced your mirrors? Ain't nobody got time for that...

If he is going to spend his time stealing car mirrors instead of getting a job, there is a reason that man is homeless.
