Today, I parked my car in a garage that cost $13 for every 10 minutes past 10 o'clock. When I came back to the garage at 10, I had forgotten where I parked it and spent an hour looking for it. I paid $78 to lose my car. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I searched for free parking near my work for 30 minutes, trying to avoid paying $12 at a pay lot. I scored a spot, but 1 mile away from the office. I trekked through rain, cold, and got to work late. It was a long hard day, crawled back to my car, and had a $30 ticket on my windshield. FML
Today, I walked ten miles to pick up my car from the towing station. Turns out there was enough change for the parking meter in the glovebox after all. FML
Today, I received a parking fine for $147. My car isn't even worth that much. FML
Today, I finally found a parking space directly outside my apartment after driving around for 20 minutes. I celebrated, parked, and walked upstairs. Ten minutes later, I realized I'd left my car running with the keys still inside. FML
Today, I offered to drive my friends to the airport because their taxi was expensive. We left early and arrived with plenty of time. Then I realized I’d parked in the short-stay car park. I paid more for parking than I would have paid for a taxi. FML
Today, I went to pay my vehicle registration in person to avoid paying the $10.00 online service fee. After a long wait, I came out to find a $15.00 parking ticket on my car. FML
Today, I finished my shopping at Costco, and realized I'd forgotten where I had parked. After scouring the parking lot for 20 minutes, I called the police and filed a report for a stolen vehicle. I then remembered I had bought a new car yesterday and parked it right next to the entrance. FML
Today, I dropped my car keys down the elevator shaft at my dorm. I had parked my car at a parking meter, and now had no way to get change out of my car. It took six hours for someone to get my keys, and I now have a $75 parking ticket. FML
Today, I decided not to park in the parking garage on campus, in an attempt to save the $8 it would have cost me. Instead, I parked in a surface lot (about a mile away) and got a $50 parking ticket for not having a permit to park there. FML
Today, my truck got towed after being parked for ten minutes, even though wasn't in a no parking area. Now I have to pay 500 dollars to get it out of impound. FML

what kind of parking lot is that?! so expensive! parking is free in philippines and rates are charged hourly or every 30 minutes in hong kong (random fact: an hour's parking is 12 pennies) 13 bucks for 10 minutes is pretty intense. It's over a dollar for every minute wtf!

YDI. I don't understand how people lose their cars, its only a $50,000 piece of machinery that you're still making payments on.

I believe it. My building here in Midtown Atlanta has the same price. That's why I park a few blocks down. These people doubting you most likely never have stepped foot in Corporate America. But what would of made this funnier is if you said you weren't even there an hour.

theres no way this happened if you came at 10 most of the other cars would have been gone and you would have been able to find yours its not like everyone one else in the garage forgot where they parked

Mm. You paid $78 BECAUSE you lost your car. If I could YDI for you not understanding causality and then an additional one for you not remembering where you parked I would.
