Today, I was sitting shotgun in the car. A huge bug came inside, and everyone began to freak out so naturally I began to swat at it. I got the fly, but I also cracked the windshield. I paid $229 to kill a bug. FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, about to fall asleep, a bug started buzzing behind the screen to my window. Losing my sanity, I punched the screen, forgetting all about the glass. I now have a cracked window and one still annoying bug. FML
Today, as I was driving, a massive cockroach clicked its way across my windshield. I pulled over to fling it out the window, but it spread its wings and flew around like a hook-armed stabbing machine. I lost it in the dark car and now I can't find it. It's going to be a long drive home. FML
Today, I ruined my computer screen trying to kill a fly. FML
Today, while I was eating, a fly kept pissing me off. After three minutes of it buzzing around, I caught it and killed it. Then, without realizing it, I smeared its guts all over the front of my shirt. FML
Today, as I was hanging washing out in the sun, a huge cicada flew into my face and somehow got behind my glasses. I screamed and ripped them off and ran away. I came back to a broken pair of VERY expensive glasses. FML
Today, I thought it would be funny to pee on a small bug in the toilet. A much larger bug thought it would be funny to fly into my eye while I was doing this. FML
Today, while I was relaxing outside drinking a beer after a long day, a moth decided to fly right into my ear canal. I instinctively threw my hand up to swat it out. With the same hand holding the beer. I soaked the side of my face and down my ear. At least I got the bug out. FML
Today, I noticed an extremely large bug buzzing around my room. After several attempts, I stomped on it with my shoe. I was trying to get a closer look at my victory when it flew into my nostril. Turns out it was just playing dead. FML
Today, I was taking a break in my work truck when I saw a huge swarm of bees flying my way. I have a hand crank window so I started cranking it up as fast as I could and the knob snapped off before it closed and I got stung by the whole swarm before I could get out. FML
Today, I spent an hour and a half washing my car. As I was driving down the highway, a large bird flew over my car and accidentally dropped the dead animal he was about to have for dinner. It landed on my windshield. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Today, I spazzed out in my car and broke my windshield. All over a fly, FML.

@ #15 all safety glass means it that it's laminated so when broken the pieces don't go flying everywhere. I don't know if it's possible to break a windshield by swatting a fly, but my friend cracked mine by kicking it. A few years ago my friend was sitting in the passenger seat with her feet on the dashboard while I ran into the house to get something. When I was walking back I head a loud crack and saw my friend moving around like mad. Apparently a orange ladybug got into the car and bit her on the back of the leg causing her to kick and break my windshield.

Unless you tried swatting the fly with a hammer, I ain't buyin' it.

#16 if memory serves me from like high school history, I think the term "shotgun" comes from the old horse and buggy/cowboy days. You had the driver who had both hands busy with the horses and they had someone sitting next to them who actually had a shotgun so they could protect themselves and whatever they had with them. Anyway...... I agree with others, the windshield had to be about to go if you were able to break it that easily.

lololol I was going to make a clever Hulk reference but clearly someone beat me to it. Seriously bro, how hard could you have hit that?
