So, I found an iPhone today

CyberGhost

I was walking on the parking lot towards the post office and there was an iPhone laying on the ground, I pick it up and as I pick it up a guy from the car parked perpendicularly across, near the post office knocks on the glass and calls me, opens the door and says they've(there were like 3-4 women in the car) been looking for it all over the parking lot, and that it is his, I ask him, "are you sure?" and I hear a resounding yes from everyone, like a completely moron, I hand it over without even asking him him to call it, if it's his....

Now I feel like a complete jackass and an idiot, I think I've been had beautifully, they did not exactly look like people that'd own an iPhone, drove a Nissan Micra... looked like travellers now that I think of it.

So someone that drives a Nissan Micra can't own an Iphone??

Saw some dude picking up an iPod in a parking lot today and pretended it was mine.

He didn't even ask me to ring it, just handed it over.

Sucker!

Misticles

If the micra is pimped up... yes they are not iPhone material :P

You've been had? Of course you mean the real owner, to whom you were about to return it has been had?

What would you have done with it otherwise?

I think you gave it up to easy. Next time get them to ring it. If they have no phone, ask for names in contacts or what pics/songs are on it.
You have been had. No one who drives a micra owns an iPhone. Anywhere.

I've got nothing against Mircas but it's that the car was obviously run down and old.

biko

Maybe they had to drive a Micra because all the money was spent buying an overpriced phone?

I was an iPhone lost in a carpark, someone picked me up and gave me to someone else.

The end.

General Zod

I was a nissan Micra in a car park, but not the one in the OP's story.

AnonoBoy

I was walking around with my iPhone recently and saw some lad staring at a Nissan Micra so I called him over told him it was mine and took the keys off him.

phill106

I was a carpark with an micra in it.

Rabies

So, er... ya... I seen this guy pick up an iphone. So I got out of my micra sport and walked over. He gave it back.

Yea, I was. I don't even care for the iPhone, it's the fact that I got conned so easily, that sucks.

This story really annoys me for some reason. I wish you hadn't shared OP.

Why did the chicken cross the road?
It was trying to get a signal on it's iPhone 4.

When did we start saying parking lot instead of car park?

When did we start saying 'stove' instead of 'oven' or 'range' for that matter?

Feck off with this criticism! :mad:

Thanks guys but I picked my name as an anachronistic, inconspicuously racist epithet, not as a recommendation of histrionically-distinct cooking devices.

Thanks though.

Yeah... Without moralising; as others have said, what exactly would you have done with it though? Would you have kept it?

Although my contribution was going to be a slight variation: "How do you know someone's lost their iPhone?"

I plan on buying my first car very soon, it'll be a 9 or 10 year old Nissan Micra. I can afford an iPhone, I've just chosen to go down the Android route instead.

phasers

That was stupid OP.

rainbowdrop

Maybe it genuinely WAS their iPhone?*






*Probably not travellers either, have you ever seen a traveller in a micra?

thebigbiffo

OP: you were going to thieve the iphone.

you were not going to hand it in to the post office or a nearby premises. if you had the s'hite knocked out of you and you were run over by the micra i'd still have no sympathy for you. i bet you drive a chicichento...
