Mugged?

So, it's shit, but it happens. Lucky me, today was my 'It Happens'.

So, chilling at lunch, center court of the mall, enjoying my daily caffeine allocation (the third round), and jamming the hell out of Untold Legends. This kid comes up, starts with the PSP twenty questions, and I happily oblige. After about five minutes, we're done, and I go back to the game. A few seconds later, I notice him walking around behind me. A few seconds after that, he goes around me again. Next thing I know, he rushes me, grabbing at the fucking thing which is bound to my wrist by that cheap-ass wrist strap.

Here is where I'd love to say I beat the shit out of him, but, I didn't. I actually went for kind of a 'suck shot'. It's called size fifteen boot to the nuts. Anyway, a guy from the jewelry shop helped me try and detain the kid while mall security came. Fortunately, they weren't too far away, 'cuz that kid was wrestling something fierce.

Moral?: If you have a PSP, trust in the riveted leather wrist strap, and for the love of god, wrap it around your hand when playing in public. I can't believe I was accosted by some teeny-bopper son of a bitch, but it happens. I won't take this thing outside my store at the mall again, period. that was stupid on my part, but it you take it out, just be careful.
 
Nice nut shot. If I was there, I would've ran and sacked his ass for you. Ooh, but that'd damage the PSP, if he had gotten away with it. Hmm.. I'd like to say that this is suprising, but it's not. Stupid kids.
 
Yep, had I been there, I'd have aided you by pummeling the depraved child with my GBA SP.

"LONGER...*whack*...BATTERY LIFE...*pow*....AND A SOLID...*smack*....TITLE BASE....*crunch*

Then with it's screen-protecting clamshell design, I'd clamp his balls together.


EDIT-oh, right, not that I'm trying to say it's better. Just that his ass would be better off with a cheap GBA than trying to rob a PSP...
 
Way way waaayyy too many funny replies in this thread :rofl:

Sorry about the "shit happens" day. If that shit happened to me there is no doubt I woulda turned green and threw his ass into the nearest cookie stand/food court "restaurant"
 
ew, that sucks! I will now seriously contemplate putting the ugly white wrist strap on when it leaves my house. now it all makes sense why they include it, even if it does clash.

my gameboy advance was stolen out of my bag once while gaming with a bunch of friends (there were other people around too). when i still had no leads after a week i retaliated the only way i could figure out how to ~ i bought that OBNOXIOUS BRIGHT GREEN gba sp that target was selling with DK, lol...If anyone actually decided they even wanted to steal that thing, i'd have an easy time proving it was mine. =P

good job fighting him off, kick in the nuts well deserved.

ps. Untold Legends Rules!! ^_^
 
I guess it sucks that someone tried to steal it. Bottom line is, though, he didn't and you got in a shot at him. Sure, it would have been great to pummel him into oblivion but this kid's now going to have a criminal record (if he doesn't already) and you'll probably get to stare at him in court w/a huge smirk on your face. He's obviously an idiot; not just for trying to steal it but for talking to you before he did and drawing attention to himself.

We need to head to Hickory Hollow and just hang out at the food court and wait for someone to steal someone's PSP.
 
that bastard just gave everyone another reason to hate on us teens damnit. that sucks that some teenage ass wipe tried to jack your psp, but you said you landed a kick to the nuts so good job.
 
Well if it makes you feel any better I almost got in a car crash while going to the bowling alley of all places. Hadn't been there in atleast 3 years and while pulling into the parking lot(going kinda fast but either way) this dude in an older volkswagon bug(atleast 90, maybe older) started pulling out into my driver side because he didnt f***ing look and i swerved to miss and almost flew into a ditch. Didnt think much of it at the time but after that i realized how pissed I would've been if my 05 Civic was trashed and my left side was paralyzed for the rest of my life. On the upside though, I'm right handed.
 
You're lucky he didn't get the PSP. Good job for getting the crouch shots in. I would have tried for a few more.

Kids are such brats, make sure you press charges against that little sucker. He deserves every single bit of it.

...as for me, I'll make sure to get/make a wristband if I ever get a PSP or DS since I usually play my GBA in public (usually between classes though at the college though).
 
No further word yet on the kid- probably doesn't help that it's easter. Anyway, he looked like 15, maybe sixteen-ish. I'm calling tomorrow morning to see what the hell's going down. I already told them I'm pushing charges, and I definitely want to be there for his first court-date. I do wish I could have had a photo post-nut-shot as well, but the memory of him on the ground, in the fetal position, holding himself, after trying to snatch my shit will still be cherished. I'll keep y'all up on the news as it progresses!
 
Haha, nice job on detaining the kid.

On launch day at EB, this one really nice kid came to pick up his PSP. He hung out for a bit, was actually very polite (rare for the EB I was asked to work at that day), and he seemed like a cool guy. Think he was around 12 years old or so. When he left, my asm and I noticed that there were two gangsters in the store who also left at hte same time. We hurried to the door and noticed that the two gangsters were keeping pace with the kid for a little bit, then they both ran up, and one pounded the kid in the head and the other grabbed the bag and they ran for it. We called the cops, but they couldn't find the two guys.

Think on San Andreas launch day, there were 9 muggings right outside that store.

People are desperate for their games
 
Good to hear he was thwarted in his attempt even if you didn't get to whip his ass.

I do however hope the kick was a good solid one.

I remember Defender saying his store got robbed over GTA:San Andreas.

I haven't seen too many azn wannabe gangsters in Berkeley. Saw them in San Diego though, they like to shoot people for fun in my friend's area there. The ones that jacked the kid here were African American.

I will forever cherish my obnoxious bright green Donkey Kong SP.
 
I would have beat him to a pulp. When I leave the house with the PSP, I got a better strap thats longer, which I tie onto my belt loop onto my pants, therefore, if they try to take my PSP they have to get my pants off me first :D

About pressing charges on him, I would make some sort of deal with him, so what he did doesn't get on his permanent record. I know what he did was wrong, but I would give him a chance to do somethin to redeem himself.
 
Called up today to see what the hell's going on. Guess on top of everything else, he was carrying a craplot of pot and X. So much so, he's been charged with possession with intention to sell on top of everything. This is why my addiction is gaming, kids. They asked if I would still be pressing charges, I originally said yes, but...he's already going to be in for a long ass time, and he's just a kid. I don't know, what are your thoughts on it?- should I continue to push?

Yes. These days, they're just getting a slap on the wrist. Pile it on.
 
Don't let him get away with it...

Even though he is already going down for other unrelated charges now, I think you should go ahead and press charges.

He will get punished mildly because of beeing underage, which in my eyes is stupid.

He tried to steal your stuff, if he isn't taught a lesson, it will happen to someone else and he might be successful.

I want you to get the satisfaction of knowing that you actually made a difference in that kid's life in the end, even though that means making him do more community service or get sent to juvie hall.
 
I have to agree with the current consensus to press charges. He did (or at least attempted to do) the crime, now it's time to face the punishment.
 
Send the little brat to the chair. I'm not a big guy, but if someone tried to steal my brand-new PSP, I would have gotten the heaviest thing nearest to me (in your case, probably a chair) and smacked the shit out of him.
 
when he goes to juvie he'll probably just learn how to steal things better, from other kids in juvie. it's basically a lose-lose situation because you can't really do anything to make them change their ways.
 
Depending on his age, the drug charge alone could put him away until he's 18. If that's the case, pressing charges wouldn't be worth your time.

Wow....he's a drugaddict...disregard my previous post about not pressing charges, he needs to be taught a lesson. I thought he could have just been some kid without the money to buy a PSP....Well he could buy his own PSP....IF HE DIDNT WASTE HIS MONEY ON POT.

I think you should press charges, it really shows what kind of person he is.

And again....disregard my previous post about not pressing charges...
 
I would of said, "You wanta PSP", Pickup throw him behind the japanese food place counter and say,"They teach you how to make your own."

EDIT: Tell him and his family that when he tryed to steal it, the screen got scratched and you won't press charges only if he gets on his knees and apoligizes and gives you $250 for the psp "he ruined".
 
see now heres where the non-violent side of me tends to shy away.

i in no way believe violence solves anything, however if i see someone messing with my bike i have no problem wrapping my chain around their neck. (i am ironically much less protective of my car, but who's gunna steal a tempo with no bumper?)

you dont fuck with peoples shit, you just dont.

im glad youre pressing charges, since most people dont so they arnt "bothered" to have to do anything, or they feel bad because its a kid, both of which are ridiculous reasons.

anyways...nice job op, make sure when he's leaving court, youre sitting outside playing your psp...

sounds like a challenge.
 
Pursue charges against this punk. 15!!!!and on pot!!! Stupid kid, doesn't realize he's not gonna be 15 forever! Do you know if he's gotten into trouble before? He needs a wake up call. He's too young to throw away his life for crap like this. But then again, so are many other kids the same age. Hopefully it's not too late for him. But by all means, pursue your charges. He needs to learn!
 
A ford Tempo with no bumper?
*Yoink!* :razz:

Those with nothing will always be jealous of those with something even if it sucks, still that's no reason to let them off easy especially if they make a habit of trying to take from others.

Damn that's just wrong. I imagine a retarded Vick Mackey wannabe doing this, with a really exaggerated dopey voice.

No offense though.
 
don't do the crime if you can't do the time...prosecute

hopefully he'll be sodomized at the boys home and realize that crime doesn't pay
 
bread's done
