Today, I was driving back from school 100 miles away from my home with my fiancé and dog. While stopping for gas, we accidentally left our car keys and cell phones in the car. The dog sat on one of the keys and engaged the locks. We were locked out of the car until the tow truck arrived. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went to pick up my dog from the vet after she had surgery. I somehow managed to lock my keys, my purse, and my dog in the car. 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 left my dog in my car for 5 minutes while I ran into a store. The car was running so he was fine, the thing that wasn't so fine is that when I walked out my car wasn't there. My dog somehow moved my car into the middle of a intersection, almost causing an accident. 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 my car. After looking for the spare key for hours, we called our insurance company, who then sent a "locksmith" with a wedge and a bar to open my car. All he did was break the driver and passenger doorhandles. My stuff is still inside. 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, 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, my relatively new car locked down, with my keys inside of it, while it was still running. In a panic because it was getting dark and I was already low on fuel, I called a locksmith. He showed up and told me he needed to see some ID before unlocking the car. My ID was in the car. FML
Today, I locked myself out of my car while the engine was running. I called roadside assistance, waited 40 minutes, then watched a stranger walk past, point at the unlocked passenger door, and open it for me. FML
Today, I thought it would be romantic to take my girlfriend to the beach. It was raining so we left our shoes and phones in the car so we wouldn't be bothered. Apparently, I left my keys in the car too. The car was locked. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Getting locked out of your car for a while is the least of your problems. Trying to get along as a gay married couple in a country that still has lots of homophobes will be a much bigger challenge. Of course, if you meant fiancée instead of fiancé, never mind. You're just ignorant when it comes to French, and I think I've just cured you.

And in addition, I bet your teachers didn't believe your excuse for not being able to do your homework either, now did they?

This is why I don't bother with silly French loanwords and prefer to use the term 'betrothed'

your car must be old... in todays Cars you can only lock the doors og the key is outside the door. cuz the key is detected by the car. YDI Get a new car.

not true the car doesn't detect the key that would be a very technology advanced car to do that cars just don't lock the driver door if the key is in the ignition

My car won't lock if the key is anywhere in the car, not just the ignition. I don't even need the keys in the ignition to start it... Not that "technology advanced".

Aw poor doggy, hope it was okay but yeah ydi for leaving your keys and shit in the car. Plus if you would've cracked the window for your dog you could've simply reached in and unlocked it.

He should have cracked the window for the dog in January? Do you want the dog to freeze or are you just stupid?

Yeah, I see the problem with having both cell phones locked in or out of the car, since that makes calling the dog impossible.

What have we learned today, children? always bring along your keys when leaving your vehicle to prevent redundant situations.
