Today, my neighbor's son siphoned the fuel out of my lawn mower and put it in his car. What he didn't realize is that the fuel mixture I use in my lawn mower would ruin his car engine. His dad says it's my fault and actually insists I should pay his pissant son's repair bill. FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, I was at my grandfather's house and my car was low on gas. He said I could put some of his gas in my car. He accidentally gave me the wrong tank to pump it out of, and I put fuel in my car that he uses for his small plane. It never ran better until the engine exploded. FML
Today, my dad agreed to let me borrow the car to go rock climbing with my friends. He'd just filled it up with gas, which is how I realized halfway back home that one of my "friends" had siphoned well over half the gas straight out of the tank. FML
Today, I taught my kid how to mow the lawn. It's a self-propelling mower so it's easy to handle. My kid thought it would be smart to tie the handle down so that he wouldn't have to push it at all. This resulted in the lawn mower blasting through our fence and sinking into my neighbor's pool. FML
Today, I let my brother borrow my car, as he had a job interview. I told him the tank was nearly empty and gave him $20 to put some petrol in it. Ten minutes later, he calls me, saying the car won't start. He filled it up with diesel. It's a petrol car. FML
Today, I went to start my truck that I had parked in my driveway after a long haul. The fuel gauge indicated I had a full tank. I didn't fill up. My neighbours' son decided to fill the tank with water with a hose, 150 litres worth on top of diesel. His dad's response? "Kids eh, what ya gonna do?" FML
Today, after replacing several components on my new used car, I realized that the reason it wasn't getting the gas mileage it was supposed to because my coworkers take turns siphoning my gas while I work. FML
Today, my car broke down. My dad insisted he could fix it, but screwed up in the process. After finally getting the car towed to a mechanic, I was told that I'd only needed a new water pump, but thanks to the damage my dad did, fixing it all will cost me a small fortune. FML
Today, realizing how poor I am, I decided to steal gas. The only place I was brave enough to steal from was my parents' lawn mower. FML
Today, I heard water splashing outside of my house; I investigated it, only to find my dad, whom I don't live with, syphoning gas out of my car. FML
Today, I returned home from a 2-day trip. Before I left, I told my brother to move my car across the street when the street cleaner passes by. Turns out, he used all my gas and got so wasted he forgot to move my car. I got a big ticket that he said he'd pay for. He's unemployed and lives off me. FML

A. Take them to court for taking your oil B. Get more money out of them for harassment as he is harassing you saying it's his fault C. Get them for trespassing You're in the money

Can you take legal action against him for siphoning your oil?

How about you charge him for theft

Justice has already been served in the form of a wrecked engine. No lawyer in their right mind would take your neighbor's case to trial, so you're safe. Even if it does get that far, they have no case because they'll have to admit to theft

Yeah no. Teenage punk is a thief, and a stupid one at that.

not even close to being real. mixxed gas will not blow a car engine.

It depends on the car. If it was already shitty then it's possible the fuel would blow the engine.

I've ran mixed fuel in every car or truck I've ever owned. so have my friends at the end of the summer to get rid of mixed gas for our dirt bikes. I also know people that have run a diesel gas mix in cars. only way it does work is if the car is a diesel car then this fml makes sense a little

After. Out of a mower is less than a gallon. It could smoke from oil or if used all the time can carbon op cylinders. Will NOT cause damage.

**** them! Say his son is the one who stole the wrong kind of fuel and used it. It's his own damn fault.

So apparently the car thief who failed because he couldn't drive stick-shift has a kid of his own now?
