Today, my car broke down and had to be towed to the dealership. Normally, this would be just unlucky but I work with kids and we had been fundraising for charity. I am now sitting at the dealership with my hair coloured purple, red and blue and in ridiculously high pigtails while people stare. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my car broke down. I pulled to the side of the road to call a tow truck. After waiting what seemed like hours, the tow truck showed up, and then ran into the back of my car. FML
Today, my car was towed. After taking a cab all the way to the lot for $45 and paying the $250 fee to get my car back, my car broke down in the impound lot and needed to be towed to the nearest shop, where it took another $200 to fix, and $50 for the towing. I still have a 3-hour drive home. FML
Today, I had the lovely experience of witnessing a tow truck cause a couple thousand dollars' worth of damage to my broken-down car. FML
Today, my car broke down on the highway, and I had to call for a tow truck. It finally showed up, only to break down too less than a mile later. Cue nearly freezing to death while we waited for help to arrive for the both of us. FML
Today, my car broke down dead in the middle of the highway. As I was unable to get it out of the road, it was impounded, and my insurance won't help. Now I'm further in debt and struggling to get to work. FML
Today, my check engine light came on. I took my car to the dealership, to be told it wasn’t an issue, and I would be fine to drive and use my car normally until my appointment in 4 days. Four hours later, my car won’t start 45 minutes from home. I guess a $200 tow bill means I wasn’t fine. FML
Today, I worked a carwash as a fundraiser. Being nice, I figured I'd bring my car, get it washed, and donate some money. When it was my car's turn to be washed, everyone was conveniently busy washing other cars. My car was in front and needed to be washed and moved. I paid $10 to wash my own car. FML
Today, I got woken up by my parents telling me I had to go buy a car so they could have transportation. Neither of their cars work, so I was letting them use mine, and then they wrecked it. It needs nearly a thousand bucks in repairs to be drivable again, but since it was my car, I have to replace it now to appease them. FML
Today, I walked to work. I later discovered that my husband had parked my car in a no-parking area. My job is towing cars. I had to tow my own car. FML
Today, I ran out of gas while driving, and had to call a tow truck. I drive a tow truck. FML

C'mon let's not hurt his self esteem. We surely wouldn't want any self destructive behavior.

Ironic how the pic above Bieber is a pedo bear and the one below him is Stan ready to shoot... These are the 2 things that surround the real Justin Bieber, pedos and people who wanna shoot him!

OP, thank you for doing the amazing work that so many people in our society couldn't possibly do. Personally I'm horrible with kids and would only do damage if I did what you do. I hope when I have children, they will have people like you around that go the extra mile to improve their lives and educate them. So thank you.

At least the kids didn't shave off your hair..
starwind3438 9
The **** did I just read? Oh yea, a comment that made no sense.
anon80214 15
And this comment is relevant because..? Why would they shave off OP's hair?

I've seen worse...and it wasn't for any type of fundraising!

I'd have a little fun with the gawkers....

Like what kind of fun? Your comment kind of scares me... I imagine a person with rainbow colored hair making sexual gestures, which is not something I would want to see while sitting in a car dealership. Or anywhere really.

You should start charging and put on a show, you said you wanted to raise money for a fundraiser:)

Sounds like a Hatsune Miku with more hair colors. Start singing in Japanese, they will love you.

Or you could just take out the pigtails and pretend you are some emo goth chick
