Today, I parked my convertible in the 5 minute bay at the post office. When I came back out I noticed a bum in the front seat pretending to drive it. After shouting at him and pulling him out, he stumbled off. I was then slapped with a ticket for being parked longer than 5 minutes. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I parked my car, went to pay for my spot, and returned to my car only to find a parking violation ticket tucked under the windshield wipers. This all happened in less than a minute. FML

HAHAHAHAHAHA this is hillarious!! I cant stop laughing, but seriously dude, why didnt ur car alarm go off and why would the parking ranger give u a ticket if you were leaving anyway? to give you a ticket he would have had to get to the car before you did, so he either wouldve seen the whole thing OR, you already had one when you get back so YDI for being late, but still HILLARIOUS!!

That's a good reason not to own a convertible. I hope you beat the tar out of that stupid hobo.

The obvious lesson that shouldn't have needed to been learned here, but hopefully was: always set the alarm, even if the top is down and you're in a five-minute spot. Duh.

YDI for being a convertable owner and still leaving the top down while it's parked. Next you'll post a FML because you found it full of snow, or wet from rain, or your seats slashed, or full of garbage or vomit. Put. the. top. UP. Your stupidity = YDI

YDI! Maybe you should lock your doors. That way no one can get in to your car! Just a suggestion.

Its a convertible tard and she was only parked for 5 minutes so she probably didnt want to put up the roof.

Yeah, some metermaid totally ignored you wrestling a bum out of your car and walked around the tussle to put a ticket on your car. Sure.

Why do you have to go and crush someone's dream of having a car? :/ YDI because you kept your doors unlocked/windows down anyways.

Why did you get a ticket if you were already there? Did a meter maid just see a bum stumble off and another man about to get into his car and decided to write a ticket and place it on his windshield while he was turning on his car?
