Today, the air bag system in my car somehow malfunctioned, and the air bag inflated while I was driving, causing me to lose control and crash into a street light. I ended up with a badly bruised face because the air bag had already deflated by then. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, on my way back to work after lunch, my airbags deployed at a stop sign. FML
Today, accustomed to dealing with my old car's faulty accelerator, I pressed the pedal way too hard in my new car and crashed into a pillar, totaling the engine, and giving myself a concussion. I could still see the dealership down the street. FML
Today, I crashed my car. I saw a deer getting ready to run into the middle of the road, and I was very sleepy, so I panicked and slammed on the brakes, causing me to lose control of the car on the wet road. After I hit a tree, I realized that the deer was a plastic lawn ornament. FML
Today, while riding in the car with my mother, we got into an argument, at which point she pulled the vehicle over, took the key out of the ignition and used it to turn off the passenger airbag. She then continued driving in silence. FML
Today, I was feeling super nervous about driving because I had my first accident the day before. As I stopped at a red light, I got rear-ended. FML
Today, I was at a stop light and a bee landed on my leg. I screamed and started swatting it. It flew into my jacket and I started to strip my jacket off, taking my foot off the brake. I hit the car in front of me and deployed the air bag, breaking my nose. Then the bee stung me in the back. 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
Today, I parked my car on the street late at night, when I was distracted by a text message. Some guy then gets in my passenger side. Panicked, thinking I was being robbed, I bolt out of my car bruising my head and dropping my phone onto the pavement. The guy meant to get in the car behind me. FML
Today, the day after I bragged about never having a car accident in my life, I mistakenly put my car into Drive instead of Reverse and crashed into my own house. FML
Today, while scrubbing my car with the foam brush at a car wash, the hose for the brush came whipping around and smacked me hard in the side of the head, knocking off my glasses. I got disoriented from the blow and stepped on my glasses, completely smashing them. FML

Good thing I sit back enough in my seat that the air bag wouldn't hit me in the face right away.

So instead of relaxing in pain you pick up your device and write this story on fml!??

I've been in a few accidents. There was one where i should've died, regardless of the fact that i was wearing my seatbelt. That car had no air bags being an 87 buick century, but the van i got into an accident with did. And i know for a fact that if you are wearing your seatbelt, you won't hit the stearing wheel even if an airbag accidentally deployed and deflated before you hit something. So either you were not wearing your seatbelt (in which case, ydi) or the seatbelt failed as well (and as such, fyl and you should definitely sue). But i find it VERY hard to believe both failed at the same time. So i have to say ydi. Sorry about your car though, and i hope you recover fast.

Respectfully, my good fellow, that is a load of HORSE SHIT. You CAN smash your face into the steering wheel during a collision, even if you're wearing your seatbelt. My brother has a great scar from where that happened to him in an accident, and yes, he was wearing his damn seatbelt - as affirmed by the emergency response crew who had to cut him out of the car afterwards. You know it for a fact, huh? Guess what I "know for a fact"? You're a twat!

Don't worry, a level-headed lawsuit will ease the pain.
