In a world where car break-ins typically evoke images of thieves snatching cash and electronics, one Kansas State University student, named Alex Thompson, experienced a peculiar twist of fate. He left his car unlocked for just 15 minutes, only to discover that his beloved KitKat bar had been pilfered. This amusing incident took a turn when the thief decided to leave behind an apology note, which has since gone viral.
The note, written on a crumpled napkin, read: “I saw the Kit Kat in your cup holder. I’m a huge fan, so I checked your door, and it was open. I only took the KitKat. I’m truly sorry, but I was hungry.” This candid confession highlights a surprisingly relatable moment—everyone has been tempted by a sweet treat now and then.
Alex’s initial reaction was one of dismay. He shared on social media, “At first, I was annoyed about my missing snack, but then I found it hilarious. Who would have thought a thief would be so honest?” His light-hearted approach to the situation is commendable, especially considering that he received a package of replacement KitKats from the company itself after they caught wind of his story.
Social media users expressed a mix of sympathy and amusement, with many admitting they might have done the same if they stumbled upon a KitKat in an unattended vehicle. As I reflect on this, I can’t help but think how different my own recent experience was. Just last night, my car window was shattered, and my purse was stolen while I was at the gym. Had I known about Alex’s tweet earlier, perhaps I would have left a few chocolate bars in plain sight to distract a potential thief, rather than my valuable belongings.
While the humorous aspects of the KitKat theft are undeniable, it’s essential to remember that such violations, even when seemingly minor, can leave one feeling unsettled. The sense of invasion into personal space is a genuine concern, regardless of the stolen item’s value. Hopefully, this amusing tale doesn’t encourage others to invade someone else’s vehicle, as that feeling of violation is all too real.
For Alex, however, this story had a bright outcome. He might have lost a KitKat, but he gained a memorable experience. As I await the repair of my car, I find comfort in indulging in KitKat bars from my children’s Halloween stash. They may have taken my purse, but they will never take my candy.
