Today, my little sister came to me crying about how everyone calls her a bad driver. I gave her a pep talk, an encouraging hug, and told her not to listen to negativity. Five minutes later she wrecked my car. FML

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, while in the car with my mom, she gave me a lecture about how bad of a driver I am. During that process she ran a red light and hit a car. FML
Today, my mom was driving with my brothers and sister in the back seat. She was turned around talking to us, when my sister told my mom that she missed the light. She ran it, then screamed at us about not paying attention and noticing your surroundings. FML
Today, my sister wrecked my car, then blamed it on, "Mercury being in retrograde." FML
Today, my sister drove past me while I was walking home in the rain. She honked to let me know she was there, and kept on driving. FML
Today, I pulled up next to a lady who was trying to text, smoke, and drive. My brother said that she was probably going to cause an accident. He was right. At the next light, she hit us. She then yelled that I purposely caused the accident because, "that's how teenagers are." FML
Today, my sister and I got into an argument at a tennis court which ended up with her trying to run me over in the parking lot. I stepped to the side and hit her door, denting it. My parents expect me to pay for the damage caused by my sister trying to kill me. FML
Today, my little sister was rhyming words with "truck." When she came to "fuck", I told her never to say that word again because it was bad. She ran around the house screaming it. I'm in trouble for being "a bad influence." FML
Today, I was driving my little sister to school. She really didn't wanna go and was throwing a tantrum in the car. When we stopped at a red light, my sister notices a police man giving a ticket to another driver. She rolled down her window and screamed "Help me! I'm being kidnapped by a murderer!" FML
Today, I took my 15 year-old daughter driving. I yelled at her for not going safely around corners. On the way home, while demonstrating how to drive right, I went around a corner and hit a cement truck. FML
Today, my mom drove my car and had to make a U-turn on a narrow street. Instead of slowing down, she sped up to turn, running off the road and denting my car. To make things worse, she blamed me for not giving her good directions, then followed that up with, "It's not that bad." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

giving her a driving lesson probably would have been a better choice

You learned a very valuable lesson: NEVER try to convince bad drivers that they are anything but. It gives them false security and makes them drive even worse, thinking they aren't as bad as they are. Your sister is proof of that. But I swear if I see one "women drivers" comment, I will blow a gasket.

Here's the rundown 35. "This isn't a English/grammar instruction it's a humor site." Three things. 1) It's supposed to be AN English/grammar instruction. 2) There is supposed a comma in between instruction and it's. 3) Just because this is a humor site DOES NOT excuse you from using proper grammar and punctuation.

"Three things." should have a colon in place of the period.

40, ever thought you should put this as a response under 35's comment, instead of a comment here.

You're dumb for letting her drive it after she told you everyone called her a horrible driver.

If everyone was calling her a bad driver, she's probably a bad driver! It's not like that's the kind of insult people just throw around to be mean and it's her own damn fault everyone says that.

Wow, idiot.

a pep talk would have been appropriate if she has come to you saying kids were saying she was fat, or looked funny, or sucked at a school subject. driving however... if she was being told she was a safety hazard then you kinda deserve it for not being wary that if enough people say you suck at something, esp like maneuvering several thousand lbs of steel, there's a good chance they're right. should have taken that into consideration before her feelings.

OP: if I may offer a piece of advise for the future; during your pep talk, ask the person you are pepping up why people are saying the things they are hearing; for example, why do people think your sister is a bad driver. This may help the person realize the behavior that needs altering, allowing them to learn and improve, and perhaps even changing people's minds about them. Without them realizing the why, they have little chance of changing. In short, they need to listen to the negativity in order to figure out why it is being said. Also, I would suggest getting a bus pass for your sister while she pays off the damage to your car.

Verbatim what I would have said. Well played.

Great minds think alike, they say. I have no excuse why I thought of this though.

At least now she won't listen to your negativity.

She probably could've done without the pep talk.

You're a good sister for trying to cheer her up before that though!
