Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my car was totaled. It was so new, I haven't even made the first payment on it yet. FML

And then.....
Today, I bought my very first car that I spent years saving for. A few hours after I signed all the papers, I let my boyfriend go for a test drive. He totaled it. FML

Today, I bought a new $10,000 car since my old one broke down. Today, I also found out the old one wasn’t starting because i never had it in park. FML

Stick to sidewalks
Today, after my car got stolen and flipped on its roof three months ago, making it an insurance write-off, and getting a new car a week ago, a drunk driver crashed into my parked car, writing it off. In both instances the drivers were thankfully OK, it's just my insurance premiums skyrocketing, no biggie. FML

Today, I finally got enough money to buy the car I wanted for a year now. It was stolen today too. I had my car for 4 hours. FML

Carless whisper
Today, my car broke down. Yesterday, my husband mentioned he found my dream car for sale, but I'd insisted my car had a lot of miles left and we should save money. They sold my dream car this morning. Now I'm carless. FML

Today, I had two accidents in my car: one when a truck drove into its rear end, the other immediately after when my own rear end released its load onto the seat. FML

It's all too much
Today, I totaled my car whilst rushing to pick up my son from daycare. This happened as I was leaving the hospital, after dropping off a wheelchair to my recently disabled wife, who is taking care of our newborn in the special care unit. FML

Buy a car to go with the new seat covers.

Why would you order seat covers if your selling your car? Why would you sell your car if you ordered seat covers? Why are you so stupid

Why are YOU so stupid to assume she ordered them knowing her car was going to get written off? Maybe she bought them, then something unexpected happened and she had to write off her car, THEN the seat covers came in late and she couldn't cancel them in time. USE YOUR BRAIN.

Oh the irony in what you said.

They didn't sell their car they crashed it. I doubt this was a planned event!

Why would you sell your car after you order new car seat covers? It just doesn't add up.

I get that there is a dialect barrier here that's causing some confusion... but I think a lot more people would've understood and agreed that your life is effed if you said that you crashed your car instead of wrote off.

Haha sorry I didn't think it was a big deal, people aren't dumb I'm sure they'll work it out.

I didn't realise the term "write off" was unique to us Aussies.
kristat 14
It was the first time I heard it used, but enough people had already asked what it meant by the time I read the post that I could figure it out. But a lot of people are dumb and/or don't read other comments before posting. Thank you fml for teaching me new phrases.

How long did it take you to get them after you ordered them?

Hmm I'm not from English speaking country what does "wrote my car off" mean ?

It means he had an accident and his car is 'beyond repair' so it's a write-off. Hence the phrase 'wrote my car off'. Hope this helps...

Yeah, basically means that it'd cost more to fix it than to replace it, if I understand correctly (I, too, hadn't heard this phrase prior to this FML).
