Transportation, Embarrassing, Cars and Awkward: Running commentary

Running commentary

By lukey101 - 25/06/2020 17:02

Today, the Snapchat that I was taking of my car being washed, including my commentary like, "Oooh yeah, get into it baby," was replayed loudly through my car via Bluetooth while the workers were inside and all around washing it. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I went to get my car washed at one of those places where you can watch through the glass. I watched in horror, face pressed against the glass, as my car went through with the window down. FML

Today, I noticed that someone smeared "wash me" into the grime of my car. I decided to take it to get a wash. I pulled up, put my vehicle in neutral, and kicked back as it slowly started to move. You never realize how long it takes a sun roof to close until water is dumping on your head. FML

Bad Day for a Good Boy

By Dakota - 28/09/2017 04:30

Today, on my way home from work, I went to the car wash. When the spray jets hit the car, my dog jumped out of his crate, into the front seat, and onto a button lowering both back windows. I got both an exterior and interior wash. FML

Today, I went to the mall with a couple of friends. While walking through the parking lot, we saw a very dirty car. You couldn't even see the inside of the car through the windows. I thought it would be funny to trace on the window, "Wash Me." After doing so, the driver got out of the car. FML

Humblebrag?

Today, I wanted to give my car a quick wash, to get the salt and road grime off. My girlfriend lodged herself up my ass and decided that we should deep-clean all four of our cars, then screamed at me when I didn't show enough enthusiasm. FML

Today, I was singing and drumming on the steering wheel in my car while stuck in traffic, only to realize the car next to me was full of my carpooling coworkers, all staring at me in disbelief. They spent the day at the office requesting songs. FML

Public freakout time

By Roode - 22/07/2011 17:36 - United States

Today, I was in a pool locker room, surrounded by semi-naked people. While changing into my clothes, I accidentally pushed a button on my phone, causing it to make the loud, unmistakable camera shutter sound effect. Everyone definitely heard it. FML

Today, I decided to surprise my boyfriend by taking his new car to the automatic car wash. As soon as the water started, I realized that I forgot to close the sunroof. FML

The Voice

By legit247 - 10/05/2013 04:44 - United States - Moscow Mills

Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I was cleaning dishes in the back. I started to sing to myself. During the chorus I heard the echo of my voice in my ear. My boss had pushed the talk button on my headset so every staff member and everyone in the lobby could hear me over the intercom. FML

Cars and cards

By Anonymous - 30/04/2021 18:30 - United States - Johnstown

Today, I took my car through the automated wash. I was too close to swipe my card, so the attendant reached for it and somewhere between our hands, the card fell into the grate and down a small crack 10ft into nasty water. The whole car wash was shut down to pull the massive grate up. It took about 2 hours. FML

If you're embarrassed by it or are worried they think of you as rude now, then you shouldn't have been sexualizing strangers or their jobs in the first place for your amusement behind their back. 🤷 ydi

Doesn’t matter what the genders involved are. Still sexual harassment. And it’s definitely rude to record sexualized commentary about random people without their permission (though in most states it’s not illegal if you aren’t recording their conversations). You sound like a stereotype of a construction worker.

If it were a man talking to women that way, it would be sexual harassment. But since the OP is female and the vast majority of car wash workers I've seen are male, it's cute and/or hot! Vive la difference!

So you always leave your car on while people wash it...

Yeah it helps them move the cars through the wash process when you leave it on

As a general rule, I do not hit ydi if the fml has anything to do with technology, which is confusing as all hell sometimes.

Not sure why it says I'm female, I'm definitely a guy, as were all the workers. Hardly sexual harassment lol... they clearly took it for the joke that it was. Ps. there are places outside of the U.S. believe it or not; and where I'm from you can record whatever you want in public - commentary included :)

The fact that they continued to clean the car while you did this shows a level of professionalism that is to be greatly rewarded. Go buy them each a 6 pack and apologize.
