Today, after working and saving up money for an entire year, I bought a 2001 VW Cabrio. I showed it to my friends, they all laughed at me and told me it was a girl's car. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after months of convincing from my friends, I finally bought a car they claimed would be a chick magnet. Wrong kind of "chick," mates. FML
Today, my car was in the shop so I borrowed my wife's VW Beetle convertible. It's really embarrassing because it's a girlie car and it's full of little stuffed animals. At a stop light a man asked me if I'd like to borrow one of his testicles because "every man should have at least one." FML
Today, I bought my very first car that I spent years saving for. A few hours after I signed all the papers, I let my boyfriend go for a test drive. He totaled it. FML
Today, a friend was making fun of our teacher's car, calling it dorkmobile and saying only idiots would own that car. It's the same as the car I just bought. FML
Today, my parents said that they bought me a car. I had been begging for one for a year and they always said that I would have to pay for it myself. I got really excited and went to the garage to see my new ride. It was a Hot Wheels car with a note saying, "Save your money". FML
Today, I drove home in my brand new car, hoping to surprise my girlfriend. She came out the house laughing, saying how funny it was, and how I look like a "twollop" in it. Then in all seriousness, she asked me when I was getting my "actual car" back from the garage. FML
Today, I just bought a car with all of my own money. Then, when I brought it home my dad informed me that my mom will be driving it to work every day. FML
Today, I finally bought a car, after saving up for a year. My dealer had told me it was a good buy, so I snapped it up then and there. On the way home, the rear axle practically fell out of the car due to frame rot. My dealer wants to buy the car back at half the price. FML
Today, after months of riding a bike through the rain, I finally saved up enough for a car. It was a little aged, but ran fine. That is, until a tire blew out, the engine stalled, and the battery died within one week. FML
Today, as I was driving out of a parking lot, some douchebag yelled at me: "Nice car! Too bad you're so ugly!" It was my friend's car, so I don't even have that going for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Who cares what they think, darling? What matters is that it's your car and you worked hard to earn it.

Uhh... you know that car inevitably sat for years and years if the mileage is that low, right? That means more than likely all the fluids are old. If they've just been changed, they've still been sitting in there and possibly being test driven like that. VW engines generally aren't reliable - at least the Beetle isn't, dunno for certain about the Cabrio. I really hope you did a solid inspection inside and out of the car. The 16k mileage makes the whole rest of the thing sound shady. Hope it's not, but... chances are, it is. But in keeping with the point of the FML, it is most definitely a chick car. Whether you're still going to care after your friends get over it is another thing, but it is sure as hell not a man's car. Coming from a girl, don't mod it to compensate. Actually, don't mod it at all. I'd think better of a guy driving a regular chick car than of the guy who's driving a heavily modded chick car.

Awww, I miss my 2000 VW Cabrio. That was my first car. Which this 17 year old twerp totaled by rear-ending me over the summer. =/ I'm sure this doesn't help prove it's a very masculine car though... Is it at least black and black interior? Or dark blue? I just hope it's not the cream interior... lmao.

Nothing wrong with light interiors. I picked my car based on the collie scheme. Metallic red on tan ******* epic.
