Today, I went downtown to pay my speeding ticket. After standing in line and arguing with a rude woman behind the desk, I get back to my car only to find an expired meter and a parking ticket. I got a ticket while paying my ticket. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a speeding ticket. I wrote a check, and on the way to deposit my fine, I got another one. I put both fines in a box down town, and I turned around to see a cop putting a parking ticket under my wind-shield wiper. FML
Today, I went to city hall to pay for a parking ticket. After returning to my truck, I found a parking ticket on my window. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket while standing beside my car. FML
Today, I wasn't sure whether it was past the time when they stopped giving out parking tickets. I checked the meters on either side of my car, and both were expired, so I figured I was good. I came back out to all three of us having tickets. FML
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
Today, I went to pay my vehicle registration in person to avoid paying the $10.00 online service fee. After a long wait, I came out to find a $15.00 parking ticket on my car. FML
Today, I went to contest a parking ticket in court. I came out 3 hours later, all charges clear, to a new parking ticket on my windshield, for the same amount I just got cleared. FML
Today, I got a speeding ticket while driving to my court date for a prior speeding ticket. FML
Today, while at an important meeting at work, I got to watch helplessly as a police officer gave me a parking meter ticket. Added to that my boss chewed me out for "never paying attention and staring out the window during meetings". FML
Today, I got a $60 parking ticket for not paying the $2.50 pay-to-park fee. I checked my bank records, which proved that I'd paid the fee, for the correct space too. The problem is the fine is too small to contest in traffic court. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

FYL if you payed the meter, and it ran out because the bitch at the desk was arguing with you, YDI if you didn't pay it. So I won't vote here.

um #10, that doesn't make any sense. They went to pay a SPEEDING ticket. They parked fine, but because he/she talked to this woman so long, his meter expired. How does OP deserve it? OP, that blows.

Why was he speeding in the first place? he deserves every ticket he gets since he is not following the rules. Where I live, we have pay by phone on all our parking meters which helps.

I hate parking meters and parking tickets. I get one a week on average, and it adds up to a lot. You can pay them online in most cities though. Just do that, then next time you won't risk getting another ticket when you go to pay it.

You didn't need that last sentence. We get it, really.

Sucks. You should put a bit more money in the meter next time...you pretty much need a 2-hour buffer to handle business at the DMV or any government establishment for that matter. Knowing the government you might just want to clear out your plans for the entire day.

Yo dawg I heard you like parking tickets so we gave you a ticket for your ticket so you can pay your ticket after you pay your ticket.

You should know not to bother arguing with the people behind the desk. If they weren't jerks, they wouldn't be working in a parking ticket office. Same goes for towing companies.
