Today, I was at a concert. It was dark and everyone was singing and waving their lit-up phones in the air. I was having a great time, until someone snatched my £200 phone out of my hand. FML

1) call it 2) triangulate it 3) collect it 4) beat the shit out of the guy that took it

Whatever happened to good ol' lighters?

That would be a nicer effect, but i highly doubt anyonr ises them anymore

Fires and burns. Fires and burns happened.

That sucks. Try calling the phone company (with your home phone) and telling them about it. See what they can do.

A phone that people have at home.

Why would you pay so much money for a phone anyway?

Have you ever purchased a phone before ?

Because smart phones don't come cheap.

I don't know how pounds compare to the American dollar, but over here a fancy smart phone can cost $500-600.

Here you can buy phones for up to $600 And you keep it without a plan. The only downside is you just spent $600 on a phone that will probably be worthless in a couple of years. Buying a plan though can be just as expensive. Smartphones range from $0-200. Plus plans for them aren't cheap. As long as your phone gets what you need done, then it's worth it. But these phones come on a 3 year contract and you can't switch phones until its up. If you want a new phone it'll end up costing you big $$.

Here in the UK an iPhone 4s can cost you £500-£600 (780-940 USD) but then apple products cost more here than in the US. It's pretty easy to spend £200 on a phone.

If it's a smartphone it should have a tracker, call the police and they'll find it

If it was a smartphone, it wouldn't have let something as dumb as allowing itself to be stolen to happen.

This is exactly why I don't go to concerts... FYL,OP.

If that's exactly why you don't go to concerts (afraid of people stealing your phone), then just don't bring it or put it somewhere safe. LOL Concerts are fun, especially if it's someone you really want to see.

Yeah.That comment was a dumb move on my part.

Why would you use a >$300 US phone to do the job that could be done better with a 79-cent lighter? Serves you right for being a trendy hipster doofus show-off!

I guess lighters are just too mainstream. Goddam hipsters...

What about a 200 pound lighter? 0.o

Why the hell would you use such an expensive object so frivolously? Smart phones are not necessarily owned by smart owners.

That's why they have to be smartphones doc, to compensate.

Mayhem was your first concert? Damn! You got broken in good! I went to that tour also. And yeah, it was a scary group that stood next to me-- all wired on free Rockstar energy drinks! :P

i wanted to mosh but my mom wouldnt let me xD

You must be pretty strong if you can hold a phone over your head that's 200 pounds.

Congratulations, you missed the joke.

Since OP used the symbol and didn't write out "pounds," I'm fairly certain mario knew that and his comment was a pun that you completely missed. Moron.

Um, he obviously knows that, he was making a joke. So, enlighten me, who here is the dumbshit? XD
