Today, I decided to clear up some storm damage. I carefully cut a tree that was threatening to fall on my house. It fell on my neighbor's house instead. He's taking me to court for damages. FML

Maybe leave that to the people who know what they're doing?

why does he have to take you to court? why can't you just agree to pay for the damages?

YDI for not hiring a pro. NOW which one would have saved you some money???! huh?!?

this is the same fml from just a couple days ago... or yesterday

maybe you should have gotten it professionally taken care of.

Let me pay somebody like $500 to do half an hour of work. When I could do it myself while not being retarded and only cost the cost of gas and oil.

a tree fell on my dads new BMW he s was so pissed

Did you expect him to just not do anything about it and pay for it all himself? Maybe don't cut down a tree next time unless you know what you're doing. YDI
