someone at work saw some computer parts in our warehouse and decided to steal them.
when he installed a hard drive there was a ton of child porn on it.

after a year he finally fessed up about the theft because it was eating him up inside "he has kids" and now to police ,rcmp are trying to figure out who the stuff belonged to.

me and my bosses can't even imagine who the culprit is , many people thoughout the years have had access to this stuff.

we build 15 computers a year and when parts get outdated we toss them aside at the warehouse

This guy i used to go to school with is doing time in Australia for smuggling some 20.000 xtc pills... the stupid bastard.

EDIT: oh lol, i have more

Another guy from that school i vaguely knew (who was always a total loser) got entirely wrong friends and developed a heroin habbit. Last time i accidentally walked into him he immediately asked me for a few euros. I felt a bit sorry for the guy so i gave him some money.

Then there was the guy who ate too much mushrooms, went into a psychosis, started stalking a girl and eventually ended up in a psychiatric institution for more than a year. His personality has been wiped, he's now a totally different person, not in a good way.

The guy I knew at school was a drug dealer and a pimp. He also got busted by the News of the World newspaper who did a scoop on him. Nothing happened to him though.

Theres a guy who was in the year above me at school, complete knob, complete twat, always off his tits. Only had to look at him to see it, know the type?

Anyways there was a fire recently in a block of flats, and he noticed, went into the building, woke everybody up and helped them get out.

Even druggies have their day.

Friend from my old job disappeared a few years ago. Never been found. Foul play is suspected. I think he was about 19 at the time.

That sucks. I wouldn't cry a fucking tear if the junkie pieces of shit next door died horribly though, well, the fucking psycho bitch of a woman anyway. She needs to be locked away or killed.

Birthmarks are just types of benign tumors. If one goes malignant, too bad for you...

We found out earlier last year that a guy at work had been molesting a child for years; read it in our newspaper. He was just a courier who did deliveries, but had always seemed like a completely normal guy up to that point. Everybody was shocked.

Also had a 19 year old co-worker of mine get electrecuted right in front of me on the job several years ago. He was using one of the drop cords that we all shared; I had used it probably a couple dozen times myself.

Right after I quit high school I started at a community college. Saw on the news one night that a girl in my Anthropology class that I was just about to ask out had been murdered by a pyscho stalker. He cut her heart out in her bathtub and then went and hung himself.

Then there was the night I came home from college in Florida for summer break and had my best friend tell me that my ex-girlfriend (whom I was still utterly bonkers over) had died two weeks before in a car accident.

I was leaving a club and had a short walk to the parking lot. I rounded the corner and there was a car with three drunk girls, all crying, with a motorcycle underneath the wheels. The paramedics had already taken the person to the hospital and the area kept filling up with police vehicles.


On a lighter note, last year my sister and brother-in-law told me I was going to be an uncle.

lost a few people to drug overdoses or drug mishaps. a few to accidents, a few to illness. none to murder so far thank fuck.

any sort of serious event that changes or ends the life of someone i care about upsets me, but the ones that stick in my mind are people who've been attacked for little or no reason.

an old schoolfriend was in a coma for ages after being jumped in town by a couple of chavs.
he came out of the coma with brain damage - the chavs got caught, which is a bit of a rare thing. apparently, they'd been doing the same thing for weeks - caving people's heads in for a laugh.

one of them was killed shortly after being sent down and it made me smile, i hope the bitch was pissing himself with fear when he died.

A friend of mine, who's the nicest guy, but pretty stupid, was involved in a recent shooting. His "friends" decided to pay someone a visit over 80 fucking dollars, and he thought it would be cool to go along. These are the people he claims are his closest friends.
