Today, I had my first accident in 5 years of driving. I clipped a Ford Fiesta, mirror to mirror. His mirror is totally destroyed. Mine is fine. I was so stressed afterwards that I reversed straight into another car. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was feeling super nervous about driving because I had my first accident the day before. As I stopped at a red light, I got rear-ended. FML
Today, I had my first car crash. I ran into a parked car and the owner saw it happen. I then accidentally opened my door straight into her car as well when I went to give her my information. FML
Today, I was in a car accident. After screaming at the woman for running into me, I got in my car and drove off. As I was driving away, I was staring her down when I ended up rear-ending the person in front of me. FML
Today, I was driving home from work and noticed the car behind me was tailgating me pretty badly. I was starting to get angry with the driver, and kept glancing in my rear view mirror at him. While I was doing so, the traffic ahead of me stopped, and I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML
Today, the driver side mirror of my car was smashed off and laying on the ground. On the window was a $75.00 ticket for improper equipment for not having a mirror. FML
Today, the day after I bragged about never having a car accident in my life, I mistakenly put my car into Drive instead of Reverse and crashed into my own house. FML
Today, a car backed into mine. I thought that was pretty bad, until another car backed into me right after I'd finished taking the first guy's info. FML
Today, I got into my first car accident. I side swiped the truck next to me merging into another lane. He was in my blind spot. It was a cop. FML
Today, while driving to work, some asshole stopped sharply on the 60 mph highway because he almost hit the car in front of him. Even with maintaining my distance, and slamming on the brakes, I still ruined the front end of my car on his dented bumper. I haven't even had the car for a year, and I'm still the one at fault. FML
Today, my dad was looking for something in the garage and accidentally knocked over a heavy box, which crushed the new side view mirror I'd bought for my car, because the one my car originally had, he smashed it against a pole while driving my car recently. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You need to relax. It was a mirror.

Fortunately the entire Fiesta costs about 100 pounds. You can probably find enough change in your sofa to fix it.

The car he backed into was probably damaged more than just the mirror.

And the other car that he backed up into.

We need to remember the true victims in this scenario. The guy with the broken mirror, and the person who probably has at least one side of their car totaled.

First thing I would do after bumping a car is floor it another. Maybe you should be more careful

If I were you OP after the second accident I wouldn't try to drive again that day

It could have been a lot worse! At least there were no hospital trips!

How ironic....

Now Im not sure if theres actual irony here because I dont see it
zingline89 18
Hmm I don't see any irony here...unless you were implying OP's car is made of iron

The basic definition of 'irony' is: "the reverse of what you expect to happen, happens." He probably thinks that you don't crash into a car, and do it again almost instantly.

I like how people use that word without even knowing what it means

It is ironic in a way. It's a very weak example, and you have to dig deep to get it, but it's an example nonetheless.

I think it would be ironic if we were all made of iron.

There is 3 types of irony and this FML contains none.
docscientist 10
There's as much irony here as there is sarcasm.
starbucksguy 16
I think he means it's ironic because OP's mirror was ok after the first accident...then reversed into someone even though he should've been able to see the other car in his fully functioning mirror. Probably.

I salute you greenie213 for that quote from Red vs Blue. Caboose is my favorite character.

Your car's mirror must be quite strong.

It was a Ford Fiesta. It's a given that it'll come out the loser; OP's car just beat it into submission.

I don't think that phrase really applies here.

Even with a mirror? That's just so ironic.

No, he did not mean *weighs* 100 pounds, my fellow culturally challenged Americans
Welshite 40
#20: I don't think most of us are that stupid. I understood what DocBastard was saying; that's why he wrote "costs about 100 pounds."
woainishamu 21
I'm pretty sure a lot of us know that pounds is a currency.
_Oblivion_ 12
20 Thank you captain ******* obvious
zingline89 18
Yikes, definitely didn't mean to group all Americans in that. I was more trying to prevent the one idiot from posting something trying to correct him. Unfortunately I've seen it before. Poorly worded on my part

lol, 20. What a ********.

^That, people, is irony

I would go more for hypocrisy.

Ziiing...nice one Doc. I was gonna say the Fiesta probably looked better afterwards.

"oh my god I'm so stressed!" *puts it in reverse and floors it*

Interesting reaction to that. But alright. Haha. And it was only a mirror OP. and a ford fiesta at that. Imagine if it was a Mercedes mirror. With the turning light, auto dimming mirror, downward light, mirror motor, mirror folding motor, and the defrosting mirror. You would have driven off a cliff!
