Today, I pulled up to a red light. My ex was in the next car, and my car's windows are so tinted that you can't see through them, so I flipped him off. I was driving my mom's car. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while in the car with my mom, she gave me a lecture about how bad of a driver I am. During that process she ran a red light and hit a car. FML
Today, the car in front of me was going slow and I flashed my lights and honked. I floored it and passed the car, flipping off the driver. Just as I went around the next corner, I got pulled over by a motorcycle cop. A few seconds later, the guy I flipped off drove by honked and waved. FML
Today, I pulled up to the stoplight near my house. It was dark with no traffic and the car behind me kept edging closer and closer to me. I finally got fed up with waiting and the car and ran it. In fact, it was a cop and he was trying to read my license plate because the back light was out. FML
Today, while driving to my girlfriend's house, I passed up a stop sign without stopping. A car passing by honked. I honked back several times and flipped them the finger. Turns out it was my girlfriend's dad trying to say hi. FML
Today, I stopped at a red light, when I noticed the car in front of me was in reverse. I honked at the driver, hoping he'd realize and place the car in drive. He thought the light turned green and immediately backed into me. FML
Today, I pulled up next to my boyfriend at a stoplight. He was in the back of a police car. FML
Today, as I was driving in reverse, I hit my boyfriend's mom's car. I met her for the first time while giving her my information. FML
Today, while I was driving home, some jackass in an open-top sports car overtook us and flipped me off. Just as I overtook him in turn, my wife rolled down her window, pulled out her tampon, and launched it at the kid. I'm not sure who was more horrified, me or him. FML
Today, I was driving in my very own car that I bought and paid for myself, when I stopped at a stop light. Then I noticed the truck in front of me turn on his reverse lights. I honked desperately. He hits me, looks out the window and says, "I see no damage" and drives away. FML
Today, my car broke down at a red light. A man pulled up next to me and yelled at me to get out of the fast lane. I thought he was gonna offer help, as I was a young woman on her own, but he just yelled at me and sped off. FML

Okay.... What's the point of flipping them off if they can't see you? Just saying

How is this an FML? Giving someone the finger isn't really a big deal.

Agreed

Letting your ex live in your head like that.. Not a good look. Whatever happened to just letting go? YDI

#15 Or, you know, you could just do neither.

nonsensical 26
well it's a way to insult them without them knowing you're insulting them. so you appear classy yet you can release your anger, i suppose...

Outwardly it doesn't do anything, but deep down inside it probably felt pretty damn good.

You can stick your hand out the window

Well, I flip off my old high school when I drive by it (not just people; the entire high school), whether anyone can see it or not. It's the principle of the thing.

I think the point is, it wasn't OP's car so the windows weren't actually tinted and they forgot.
soulcrusher11 16
yea the point is for them to see

I'm assuming she thought she was in her own tinted car, but was in her mom's car which probably isn't tinted.

#35 What?

She said her car is tinted and can't see thru her window but she was driving her moms car not hers.

Some people are cowards, and doing doing stuff like this makes them feel better about themselves.

Sometimes it just feels good.

It was the OP's moms car. Not their car. Their moms car didn't have tinted windows.

She was trying to flip him off without him seeing but she was driving her mom's car so he did end up seeing.

Sounds pretty silly to me, to only dare flipping someone off if they can't see you.
MrConcise 35
Badassery at it's finest! Keyboard warriors don't even hold a candle to the person who flips people off through a tinted window.

Anonymity brings out everyone's inner bitch. And then you realize everyone actually saw you clear as daylight. YDI for being this bitter though.
mergeterge 24
It took reading through comments until I got to this one to understand this FML... It really makes no sense at all. Not sure how it got through. (Or maybe I'm just slow lol)
CaroAurelia 12
Well, if he was a really horrible ex, maybe she's right to be bitter.

Don't you just love being anonymous
ohSNAPyall 27
OP was not anonymous. The ex would still recognize OP -- which the ex did, because OP was using mom's untinted windows.
WaltzingPhanthom 23
Don't worry. You've ****** him before.
Katthebamf 29
I'd have still done it without the tinted windows. But still YDI for trying to do it secretly, what is even the point?
RachelRHCP 23
This seems really childish to me. Why is this even an FML? What's the point?
