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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. 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 locked my keys in the house. I panicked so hard and immediately started kicking the door, desperate to get my keys. My boyfriend, who I forgot was staying over, woke up and opened the door right as I kicked it, and the door smashed into his face. FML
Today, as I stepped out the door and heard it lock behind me, I realized I had forgotten both my keys and my baby inside. There's no other way in. FML
Today, while driving, I realized I had left my phone on top of my car when I was getting in. Panicking, I drove back to look for it. I found it in the middle of the street, still intact. Yay! When I went back to my car, I noticed I had locked my door, and the keys were in the ignition. FML
Today, in a rush to get out of my house to go to a doctor's appointment, I closed the door behind me without having my house or car keys on me. Sadly, it took me less than a minute to break into my own house. FML
Today, whilst heading out the door to go to work, my lanyard got caught on the doorknob inside, and I watched my keys swing back inside as the door closed behind me. It was locked. 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, after numerous attempts, my car door still wouldn't unlock. After going ballistic on the lock, the key broke off inside. I then realized it wasn't my car. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That sucks... you must have a really old car or something, most modern cars won't lock the driver's door if the key is in the ignition.

I did that once, minus the locking myself in part. I slammed my finger right into my car door, and I went to open it and it wouldn't open right away, so I spent about 25 seconds with my finger stuck in the door. Had to go to the hospital when the blood was clotting up in the tip of my finger and wouldn't go back to the rest of my body.

you need to sleep more or drink less before you get behind the wheel.

I have a fear of this happening! There is only one key to the car I drive and I often worry about this exact situation happening to me because I lock the doors as I'm getting out of the car out of habit, and I've locked my keys in cars I've owned in the past. Think I might go have a spare made this evening, since I'm thinking about it. Hope your hand is ok!

That really sucks, sounds painful. Well, now you know that you should have more than 1 set of keys, in case this happens again.

This is one of the few FMLs lately that I actually laughed out loud at. Yikes. That sucks. But it's hysterical and I bet everyone you told laughed or was thinking about how funny that situation is. But feel better! (=
