Today, I noticed a man in my neighborhood waving at me. I don't talk to him often so I excitedly waved back. Turns out he was trying to warn me of the car about to hit me. FML

Maybe something more than a fucking wave would've been able to warn you. I've got a pretty loud voice, and even if I didn't I'd be able to find the switch to scream at someone to atleast get the fuck out of the way.

Did he warn you in time? Otherwise this could be a more serious FML!

Well I'm sorry that he wasn't from Canada Op because we all know how to yell out "car"

Nice neighbors? I would consider the neighbors civilized, not nice. They could be insanely rude people for all we know.

Was the driver of the car blind? If so, press 1. If OP doesn't look both ways before crossing the street, press 2.

What I don't get is why would the guy wave to OP instead of yelling "look out for the car!"

Alright are you people dumb or what? Op obviously did get hit because when he tried to warn Op, Op didn't realize he was warning and not waving. So instead of moving out of the way, Op waved back and thus got hit by the car.

I think OP was hit by the car. Let me explain why, sensibly.
1) It's an FML. It wouldn't be one if he just stepped out of the way of a car. "Today, I dodged a car that almost hit me. FML"
2) The OP didn't realize what the neighbor was waving for (until it was too late, or so the FML implies), so how would he have been able to dodge?
3) it was in a neighborhood. Where I'm from, neighborhood speed limits range from 25-30 MPH. I'm sure it's not very different than that anywhere else, so it's not really a deadly speed, especially if the driver attempted to stop, which he may have.
4) If it was a bonecrushing accident, and you got laid up in a hospital for a while, what would you do to pass the time? FML.

I hope you did a super-dramatic James Bond roll out of the way once you noticed the oncoming car. Then your neighbor would tell everyone about your cat-like reflexes and how badass you are.

Or or or, OP noticed the car split seconds before it hit and did a super dramatic James Bond roll out of the way. Ok in all seriousness, OP could have noticed and moved, or the driver could have used common sense and decided to stop. OP most likely didn't get hit so quit your blabbering.

Op is from north Carolina. They just voted a guy who resigned from congress due to funds misuse as their republican candidate.

93- are you making the assumption that everyone who has an xbox has xbox-live? And if you are asking just because she is a girl, then that is just sad and you should just stop. Leave your house from time to time and make some real fucking friends.

In this case, assuming is pretty justifiable. It is an FML for a reason.
Basically--"Today I bought a knife. I know have cuts on my arm! FML" Wasn't the knife, ya dumb, don't assume.

So are you FML-ing because your neighbor was trying to help you out but you misunderstood and felt awkward or did the car actually hit you? If it didn't, you should go thank your neighbor. I'm pretty sure he feels bad if you mistook his helpful gesture and were actually injured.
