See all Show me
When I started the night, I wasn't planning on getting mugged but the streets had different plans. I decided to come up with a more creative outlet for my anger instead of channeling my rage into white hot vigilante street justice (we'll save that for tonight.)

    You should start watching the UFC, that way no one will mess with you. Im practically a brown belt in muy thai kick boxing just from watching Spike.

    Why is mankind devoid of a moral compass?
    I agree with David; my newly acquired jiu-jitsu and striking skills give me a real degree of comfort.

    We're just going to have get used to how things are in the future. For me, picking up fey-toy-pan-tee has kept me the sole toucher of my I-pod touch.

    Sad story, great vid & what a shiner !
    It would be so cool if they actually looked at your work and
    decided this is the guy's "shit is dope" & we need to hire him for our video project! (just a thought).

    So lame! I like that you punched back in defense of your wonderful piece of technology. I'm sorry : ( But your video is very clever.

  • Eric Anderson 8 months ago
    Well, a great video came out of a horrible situation. Hang in there.
  •  
  • haha, that's great.

    I am going to hot wax hello kitty stickers and carrying cases to all of my stuff so if i ever get jacked, the thugs will have a hard time finding a market for my hello kitty bedazzled stuff. except in japan.

    edit: hello kitty is cute as shit. i would do all of that, but with iterations of this all over everything: kimtoft.com.au/silks/images/5June07-4L.jpg

    Aww ... pretty funny. My only suggestion is to adjust your color balance a bit so the sheet in the background looks pure black. May look different on your monitor, but if you preview it by jacking up the brightness and contrast on the clip you can tell a little better.

    (edit) Oh this is REAL? Damn! That sucks! Forget my silly editing suggestion and heal up :)
  • matthew k 8 months ago
    its been bothering me too but today was the first day i've been able to fix it. its looking cleaner now, you heartless monster! thanks, man.
  • justin 8 months ago
    Awesome! So much better!
  • I noticed that too and didn't want to say anything, but it was also bothering me.

    we are such nazis.

    it looks nice now though matthew.

    haha

  • whtnova 8 months ago
    No GPS on the thing? You should go get it back with the local PD if it does. If you're lucky they'll have you present for the arrest!

    that sucks, looks like you got the iPod Punch.

    These devices have serial numbers and when they call in via WiFi it could be tracked / culprits caught ?

    Do some meditation and don't look back.

  • Tony Clavelli 8 months ago
    Geez what a great video Matt. I know the situation was most likely terrifying, but you made an impressively funny video out of it. Easy for me to say, but I'd call this a tie--dudes who punch meanly: 1, Matt: 1.
