Today, I locked my car. I put the key in my bag when suddenly my car began to roll backwards. I tried to get the key out of my bag but couldn't find it, and with the other hand I tried to stop the car. The worst thing was that some dumbass was watching me and didn't help. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. FML
Today, after locking my keys in the car and waiting three hours for my mom to bring me my spare, I reached into my bag only to find my keys. FML
Today, I locked my keys in the car while the car was running because I got out to get the parking ticket attached to my windshield. FML
Today, I shut my finger in the car door. The door locked. Then I dropped the keys on the ground and couldn't reach them. FML
Today, I accidentally locked my car and house keys along with my phone in my car. Then I had to break into my own house looking for the spare. Someone called the police and I had to explain that I lived there. I forgot to grab the spare when I went to talk to the police officers I locked the door behind me. FML
Today, I locked myself out of my car while the engine was running. I called roadside assistance, waited 40 minutes, then watched a stranger walk past, point at the unlocked passenger door, and open it for me. FML
Today, as I was closing my car door, I realized I had left the keys in the ignition. Not wanting to lock myself out, I reached to stop the door from closing. Not only did I scream when the door slammed on my hand, but in my furious pain, I leaned on the door, locking my keys inside. FML
Today, I couldn't see my car in a crowded car park. I pressed unlock on my keys and saw the lights flash. As I walked over I also saw someone run from my car with an armful of my stuff. FML
Today, I was walking to my car when I saw a large man walking behind me. I hurried to open my car as he was approaching quickly, but the door wasn't unlocking and I panicked. I then realized that it wasn't even my car. As I walked away from it, he walked up and unlocked the door. FML
Today, I accidentally left the handbrake off in my car, got out, locked it, and started walking away. Then I heard a loud noise and looked over my shoulder and the car was gone. Of course, it hit the only other car parked in the street. FML

I'm sorry that the dumbass didn't help. Also, if your car is locked and you can only open it with a key and not by the click of a button then it may be a difficult situation if the windows are up. On the otherhand, the car goes in P for park.

FYL for not taking full responsibility

So the dumbass is the bystander who just, by chance, happened to witness an undeniably funny event - but the genius is the person who failed to either leave the car in 1st gear and/or apply the parking brake or put the car in "P" (depending on if the genius has a manual or automatic transmission) - then tried to stop a rolling car with "one hand", as if you are a super hero?

I fail to see how the "dumbass" was in any position to help you. You had the keys and it's not like he had enough time to sit down and help you search through your bag for them lol

I don't get it? Are you referring to yourself as the dumbass? Cuz I don't see how your stupid mistake was anyone else's problem.

As a guy who has a car with a manual transmission I can tell you that sometimes its easy to forget to set the brake, this has happened to me usually can get in and pull the break though
