Today, I had finally gotten my dogs to quiet down and my baby to fall asleep. Not thirty seconds later, my neighbor's car alarm went off. They aren't home for the weekend, and the damn alarm has now been blaring for three hours. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was woken up by my neighbour's dog losing its mind, and I remembered reading a story about someone ignoring a dog and later finding out that their car had been stolen. Paranoid, I went outside to check on mine. Nope. Just the damn dog barking at one thirty in the morning. FML
Today, I was so tired, I passed out at work in the middle of a call. All because my neighbor's car alarm kept going off every 3 minutes all through the morning. It was still going when I left for work. If you see a news story in a few days about a whole neighborhood beating a guy to death, that's probably us. FML
Today, I learned that my new neighbour's car alarm goes off every time a car drives by blasting loud bass. So far, it's gone off 6 times in the last hour. I can't wait until he's done moving in here, where he and his car will stay for the next year. FML
Today, my neighbors left for their nine month excursion, and armed their security system. One of the features is a loud series of three beeps every three seconds, 24 hours a day. I can hear it, clear as a bell, throughout my entire house. FML
Today, like every year, my next-door neighbors started setting off their fireworks at exactly midnight. Also, like every year, the sensitive car alarm belonging to another neighbor has gone off with every firework. It's been almost six hours of nonstop alarms and explosions. FML
Today, my car alarm went off during a funeral. Three times. FML
Today, I'm dead on my feet. My flatmate's alarm went off for 20 minutes at 5 a.m., which I heard and he didn't. A car alarm went off outside my window for half an hour at 7 a.m. My building fire alarm went off twice, at 8 and 8:10 a.m. Just let me sleep. FML
Today, I finally managed to sleep, after two days of being kept awake by the miniature floodlights my neighbors have installed to scare off burglars. Only a couple of hours into my sleep, I woke up to the sound of their car being broken into. FML
Today, the neighbor's dog has been barking for over 5 hours. It is barking directly at my window. FML
Today, for the third night in a row, I didn't get any sleep, because my neighbor's new dog won't stop barking when the wind blows. Where I live, we get major wind gusts most days of the week. It's going to be another long night. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I would call the police. They have ways to break into cars and could probably turn off the alarm.

Go break that car up! Although on a more serious note maybe you could try get in contact with your neighbors or ring the police to try sort it out.

It's from an old Dane Cook routine. That's a song he wrote with the car alarm as inspiration :)

Write a very colourful note and leave it in their letterbox. They could of at least left their keys with a neighbour just incase!

I know a few of my neighbors very well but I still wouldn't leave them my car keys if I went out of town. Hell, I don't even tell them I'm leaving.

Most cars stop beeping after 10 minutes or so..

Maybe that's because the owner eventually realizes it's their car going off and turns off the alarm, hmmm? In this case, the owner isn't there to turn it off. Hence the FML.

Maybe the dogs were barking because someone was trying to steal the car? Either way, call the police and save yourself a migraine!

What? I though most car alarms would shutoff after 5-10 min. Because when I was at my friends house an car alarm went off while when they where gone and it shut off. At least the battery should have died or something.

If your car battery dies after 3 hours I think you have a problem.

Car alarms use very little power a car battery could power one for days

Lift it up from the back to about a 45 degree angle

Hmm...neighbor's aren't home, dogs are barking and the car alarm is going off...what could this possibly mean...?

yaaaa.... this is a terribly made, fake FML. car alarms shut off by themselves after 10 minutes.
