A Chochacho was robbed! But his Cocoa Buddies escaped a positive evaluation by the criminals
🕑 Added 2024-11-14 02:20:33 +0000 UTCAUSTIN, TX (Achewood News Wire) — A Texas Cho's storage unit was recently burgled to the tune of all his life's many precious things, excepting these three Cocoa Buddies, and a few other small pieces. It is gut-wrenching to read, and to then walk one's self empathically through a similar predicament. It warmed my heart greatly to know that the sight of the remaining Achewood artwork, left among the debris, gave him such solace and relief.

We need to inundate this guy with Hot Wheels and bourbon. (This is a commonly used phrase)

Makes sense. Most paintings are ass to carry, don't sell for that much, and are very easy to individually identify after the fact.

My wife's an artist, and when our storage unit was broken into, the first thing she asked about was her paintings, and she was offended when I told her they were fine because people don't pawn abstract paintings to buy drugs. They didn't steal anything, not even a TV, I'm assuming because it wasn't a flat screen.

I like to swallow all my possessions and store them in my intestine like a drug mule. How do I fit them in my mouth (e.g. My piano 🎹)? Simple. I am Kirby.

The kind of people who enjoy Achewood are clearly the polar opposites of the kind of people who thieve. I am, by this logic, comforted! And you, Amit, are thereby confirmed as a citizen of the finest stripe.

I can't help but think I would feel a little insulted in your place, knowing the thieves placed no value on the paintings

I hope writing this made you feel smarter.

How rotten for the chochaco. I'm glad he was able to find a little bit of upside.

Our chochacho is from the future also

Aw bruh. It sucks that someone would steal at all, let alone things of personal value and give no fucks. But look, your works have sentimental personal value! Small comfort all around, but it's there.
Rob Dalton

If this folk needs a warm pat on the back, I've got one wound up for them. (Back pat availability limited to folks in my physical proximity. Offer void if I lose my hands soon.)

Never put genuinely valuable stuff in any type of storage place or locker or anything

I feel like this is a situation that needs a Cho-Fund Me
