So I just heard a somewhat loud noise ouside of a car. I decided to check to see what it was, I figured it was probably someone stopping by to visit. I look outside and some people are stopped outside my driveway and they drive off. I figured they might have it a deer or something (or maybe the neighbors dog) and drove off so they didn't have to deal with it. I went outside to see if there was a dead animal in the road, and I found...
My goddamn mailbox was gone. Who the fuck steals someone's mailbox? I've heard of people getting drunk and smashing boxes, but there weren't pieces broke off or anything. and it wasn't nearby in the road. I don't know what to do about this...I mean, should I report it to the police? what if they stole something with personal info on it? I would have to think if you were trying to steal someone's personal info, there has to be a lot more discreet ways that stealing someone's maibox. I'm so confused.
Anyone ever had this happen to them before? What should I do? Should I be worried about anyone trying to break into the house, or was it probably just drunk teenagers?
I was having such a nice day too

yes you should report it to the police. that's a federal offense. if they get caught.. though idk how you track down a mailbox.. they are fucked.
gl and i hope you get it back. mailboxes are such a bitch
edit: and no you shouldn't be worried.

On the internet, there is not a lot that actually gets me laughing nowadays. Sure, I crack the occasional smile to funny pictures, silly stories and what not. But this premise, the title alone - got me laughing out loud.

Pretty sure stealing mail (or mailboxes) is a federal offense. It's pretty serious...

Better call pizza hut..... You just got Pizzowned.
But come to think about it, they might not be able to find your address with your mailbox gone.... sucks.
Best thread ive seen in awhile! 5/5. I would report it tho... maybe drive around and see if someone else is using it. Perhaps steal one for yourself?

DUDE this is so fucking crazy... No shit someone stole my mail box on new years eve! Some bullshit!
|
what kind of mail box did you have?
|
arisen: what state are you from? we have to go vigilante on this bull shit. i'll bring my bat and my dog

Uh...a green one? Idk, just some middle of the road one from meijer's; not like it was a really costly one or important to me, but you know, it's just fucking weird when your mailbo is gone, you know?
|
what the hell. seems like a totally random thing to steal.
Unless you had some sort of an expensive custom one.

Man, and I thought I was badass for opening up a shaken soda inside a mailbox and leaving it inside when i was 13 and trick-or-treating (serves the asshole right for giving out soda instead of candy)...
Crazy shit. If I had to guess the cause: gang initiation, quite obviously the only logical explanation + Show Spoiler +
Sorry about your box though Maybe keep a look out for them coming back to another house? Perhaps it's a master plot to take your entire neighborhood off the postal route...for good!
Ugh, I really do feel bad you lost your mailbox, but you've gotta admit it's pretty damn funny.
