Today, my dad took a call while driving. He always yells and curses at people who talk on their cell while driving. I asked him to get off the phone because it's dangerous, and told him he's being a hypocrite. He shook his head at me and continued talking. Seconds later, we got into an accident. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while on the road, my dad called twice before I pulled over and answered the phone. He first got mad at me for not answering, and then again later for "paying attention to my phone" while driving. FML
Today, my dad took my phone away because I "had to be texting while driving in order to wreck my car." I was too ashamed to tell him that a huge bug flew into my face causing me to veer off the road and into a brick mailbox. FML
Today, I was driving home and got a phone call from my mom. She called to tell me that there was a cop at the bottom of our hill, and to be careful. I got a ticket for talking on my cell phone while driving. FML
Today, I saw someone drive recklessly as if they were drunk. When I called the cops, I got pulled over by another cop for talking on my cell phone. FML
Today, my dad nearly had a head-on collision with another car, but I grabbed the wheel at the last second, potentially saving both our lives. He spent the rest of the car trip pissed at me because I'd "interfered" with his driving. FML
Today, my dad was driving me to college. I'd cracked a joke about how old people like him shouldn't be allowed to drive, and I guess he took it personally, what with him speeding straight up to the parking lot wall, and only braking after I started shrieking in terror. FML
Today, I got in the car with my brother, who drives all the time with his eyes glued to his phone. We stopped at a red light, it turned green. I noticed that he was still looking down and told him the car ahead was moving. I then got screamed at, saying how I'm always right, how my friends suck, and how he wished I was dead. FML
Today, I called 911 to report a drunk driver. The operator yelled at me for following the guy and told me to get off the phone because I shouldn't be driving with a phone to my ear. FML
Today, I rear ended a cop while talking on my cell phone. FML
Today, I was driving when I noticed that the guy in front was on the phone. I pulled up next to him, pulled out my phone and I made a gesture that he needed to put his phone away. It was a cop. I got a ticket for driving while on my cell phone. FML

**** god damn it... I hate cellphones for that exact reason. No, not the car accident/talking while driving shit, the IGNORING OF THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU shit. "No I'm too busy to comprehend what you said because someone interrupted us and I should totally talk to them instead." Seriously, I don't know how many times I have had something of dire importance to say to my mother and she just shakes her head and gives me the "can't you see I'm busy?" look. Then she sometimes later throws a hissy fit at me for not saying anything earlier when OH YEAH MOM YOU BASICALLY TOLD ME TO **** OFF WHEN I /DID/ TRY TO TELL YOU...

Aw hope you're okay. This is exactly the thing that my dad would do and I live in Cali. My Mom talked on her phone pressed on her ear while backing out of a mall parking lot. I screamed at her. She screamed at me for interrupting her VIP call. I hope your dad learned his lesson. It really sucks they you were involved. Let's all screw the kids for CARING!! maybe we should all shut up and see the crapload of trouble our parents get into.
