It was ******* terrifying. The guy had a big butcher's knife. This wasn't even in a bad area but I was walking alone to meet up with my friends. The bastard for $90 and my cell phone. Really mad/upset right now.

I'm sorry dude. You need to be more careful. DC seems like a safe area...until it's not. At least, you can now claim to have something in common with Kumar.

Make sure you call your cell phone company and cancel service right away. Also call the people on your contact list and make sure they know your phone was taken and that they should beware suspicious calls in the immediate future.

Damn Conne that sucks. It also explains why you didn't reply to my text message late last night. I just thought you were an asshole.

Or if you want to milk this for some laughs, publicly post your number and we'll all send nasty text messages to the robber. For maximum funny, please let us know the ethnicity of the robber.

Glad you were not hurt. When will you be leaving DC?

In hindsight I probably made a bunch of poor decisions in terms of walking around the city alone late at night while I was in college in DC. Fortunately was never mugged, but had some friends who were. Glad you're ok, dude. edit:

I was in 7-11 one night around 3am and got that feeling that someone was looking at me. Looked up, and a guy asked me if I needed a ride home - said he had a limo outside. I sad no thanks, paid, and ran most of the way back. There was in fact a limo outside - maroon, 80's style (this was back in '02).

A butcher knife? Sounds beyond traumatic. Glad you're alright.
