Today, I learned that my brakes don't work anymore on my bike. When did I learn this? While speeding down a really steep hill. FML

Today, I was driving my rented car on the highway at 60 mph when I realized that the brakes had gone. FML

Today, after a costly fix for my brakes that failed a while back as I was going down a hill, I found a $130 bill in the mail attached to a speed camera photo of me shitting myself. FML

I want to ride my bicycle
Today, I decided to ride my bike for the first time in over a year. It was seemingly going well, until I got to the first hill. As I began to ascend, I was trying a bit to hard and shit my pants, 8 kilometers away from my house. FML

Less haste, less speed
Today, while driving extremely fast on a road in the middle of nowhere, I started to go down a hill. Noticing a police car at the bottom, I slammed my brakes and blew a tire in the process. It turns out the police car was an old cutout used to trick people. FML

BIKES
Today, I was riding my bike down a road I know is quite hazardous. Having almost been hit in the same spot the day before, I rode across the intersection very satisfied without having been injured. Until I crashed into the guy front of me and flipped over my handlebars. FML

Sorry!
Today, I got on the train with my bike, leaning it up against the wall. After a while, it began to slide down the wall and wobble, so I dashed out to catch it. As I ran for it, I slipped and crashed into it, knocking it into an old man and busting the rear brake. FML

On yer bike
Today, I received my new e-bike. I could barely afford it but I desperately needed a method of transportation. On my second ride, I splashed through a fresh sidewalk. There was sidewalk in the chain, in the brakes, everywhere. There goes my brand new bike. FML

DIY FML
Today, after spending hundreds of dollars on parts and tools, and hours of research to teach myself how to perform the work, I upgraded my bike. It was also today that I made it 4 blocks from my house on my first ride before I hit a curb and broke my collarbone. FML

Sick board!
Today, it was my first time trying to longboard. I ended up going down a steep hill and didn’t know to how stop. I wound up in the hospital with a fractured knee and bruises all over from trying to stop myself. FML

Today, I was driving a little over the speed limit, when I saw a cop car waiting to join the road ahead of me. I quickly hit the brakes so they wouldn't have a payday with me. I hit the brakes too hard, lost control and almost ended up on someone's lawn. FML

Let's just hope that your bike is going so fast that it begins to fly like E.T.

20 - Yes that is exactly what he is saying. The bike will actually slow down on it's own, surprisingly enough.

Put your feet down on the floor lightly so you'll slow down.

I had a similar incident when I was learning and forgot to put my breaks on in time. Crashed into a lamppost, bounced off the seat and onto the bar. It hurt a lot. I'm a girl. It must be much worse for a man.

uhhh noo .. idk about you but after I find out my brakes are ****** up going down a hill that's not what I am thinking about anymore as I go down and also how would he know he was really going to need it even if he was on a hill.
Sun_Kissed18 25
Erm, I'm pretty sure that was just a joke...
TheBitchOfChuckN 7
uhhh noo .. idk about you but he would need it on a hill to slow down after he got to the bottom so he wouldn't run into something and kill himself. That's what brakes are for.

Today, some asshole speeding down a hill couldn't be bothered to break and he careered into me. FML
