Today, while driving home from work, I heard a loud crash immediately followed by the sound of wind and shifting glass over my head. My sunroof exploded for no perceptible reason 5 days before Christmas. FML

Irony at a base level

Today, I was standing around looking out the window at work when it became really dark and windy and started to pour. I watched a shopping cart fly across the parking lot thinking how funny it'd be if it hit someone's car. It hit mine. I need a new headlight. FML

Today, I purchased a new car. On the drive home, gusts of wind blew up debris and pebbles and caused little chips in the paint and small chips on the windshield. FML

If a tree falls…

Today, it was a VERY windy day. A tree blew over and landed on my car, obliterating the windows, and totalling it. I only bought it yesterday. FML

Today, I just got my windshield fixed due to a rock hitting it off the highway. Just one hour later on my way home, a large stick flew off the back of a landscaping truck. My windshield is cracked again. FML.

Today, as I left my house, the front door slammed shut behind me, causing an entire roof-length of snow to slide over the edge and land directly on my head. FML

Today, the roads were OK, so I cleaned the ice and snow off my car so I could go out. I rolled my window down a little bit while I was driving to clear the snow off the base of the window. A chunk of ice flew off my hood, in through the window, and hit my eye. I then hit a snowbank. FML

Today, after spending hours putting up our tree and decorating it, it fell over and shattered the glass ornaments. FML

Someone doesn't like you much

Today, after work, I found my car in the middle of the empty parking lot with a huge crack in the windshield that wasn't there in the morning. Looks like I have to get the windshield replaced. Again. For the fourth time now. 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

Today, I used my rear windsheild wiper and it shattered a large hole in the glass where the rotating part is. No one can repair the window until tomorrow afternoon. It's snowing. FML

”All I want for christmas is a fixed sunroof” was always the strangest verse in that song.

That seems to be occurring more frequently as of late on modern vehicles, especially those with panoramic sunroofs. Experts believe that it's due to thermal stress over the large glass area and fatigue from the torsion of the vehicle body. Still sucks for you though no matter the reason. Hopefully it's covered under your warranty if you have one.

That sucks. Last Christmas the heater core in my truck went out, so I feel your pain. Hopefully your warranty covers the damage like mine didn't.

That happened to our glass shower door in the middle of the night! Sounded like a gun went off, it absolutely exploded — shot glass EVERYWHERE, and out the door 10 feet away. Would have been so scary when driving!
