Today, a car backfired as I waited for my bus and I screamed, thinking I'd been shot. The only thing more humiliating than that was the pissy underwear I had to go back home to change out of. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

How bad of a town to be in to think you've been shot? FYL

Well, at least you didn't get shot.

Well how you feel better...

If you're embarrassed by being surprised, PLEASE don't be. The other day I was washing my hands and screamed bloody murder when I accidentally activated the hand dryer. It just means you're alert.

What kind of car was it?

My first thoughts would be a firecracker or someone shooting birds but dang...it sucks to pee your pants but worse to live with that kind of fear.

At least nothing came out the other end. Next time have a plastic bag handy if that happens and just go commando if it happens again. It's good to air things out down there sometimes.

It's disheartening that people live in violent areas where the first thought at a loud noise is gunfire and not the more general "wtf was that"

People who live in those areas know the difference between a car and a gunshot. They also know that gunshots hurt.

At least nobody knew lol

haha. I've ridden my mini bike and a 420cc (DON'T JOKE ABOUT 420) ATV. both have backfired before, and it's cares the crap out of me every time. it's not as loud on smaller engines as an actual gunshot, but idk about car engines
