Today, I totalled my car. I flipped it over on the freeway and broke my collarbone in the process. I was in extreme pain and unable to move. It took the ambulance an hour to get there in rush hour traffic. The song repeating on my iPod was, "Don't Worry, be Happy." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was in the car going to a concert with my family. I was listening to my iPod, when the wheel broke and I couldn't change the song. So for the rest of the trip, I was stuck either listening to my parents arguing, or Don't Worry, Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin on repeat. FML
Today, while driving to work in heavy traffic, I got so into the song I was listening to that I tapped my foot on the gas to the beat. I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML
Today, I crashed my car into a bridge, while playing a song with the line, "I crashed my car into a bridge". FML
Today, I was driving down a highway during rush-hour. I heard my phone ring and couldn't find it. I bent down to feel around for it and got in an accident and totaled my car. The ringing? A commercial on the radio. Where was my phone? On my dresser at home. FML
Today, a car was waiting for me to cross the street so I thought it would be funny to slowly limp across the street. When I got to the end, I jumped as high as I could to show I was faking. Turns out I tripped and hit my head hard on the sidewalk. That car took me to the hospital. FML
Today, it was my 19th birthday. My boss let me out early to celebrate. On my way home I was hit by a man doing 65 in a 40mph stretch of road. My car was completely destroyed. I spent the rest of my birthday sitting in the ER being treated for a pinched shoulder nerve and whiplash. FML
Today, I was T-boned at an intersection. In an ambulance. On the way to the hospital after being T-boned at an intersection. FML
Today, I was singing while driving through the car park. I blacked out trying to hit a high note, and ended up bashing into another car. FML
Today, I totaled my car whilst rushing to pick up my son from daycare. This happened as I was leaving the hospital, after dropping off a wheelchair to my recently disabled wife, who is taking care of our newborn in the special care unit. FML
Today, I was driving my motorcycle, and I noticed someone was in the ditch, so I went to go help them. When the ambulance showed up, they ran over my bike, totaling it. FML

As long as you are happy, you heal faster. Consider it a helping hand on the way to recovery.

You'd think what with the crash and broken bones and waiting an hour for help, surely Don't Worry Be Happy would be the silver lining in all of this...?

The point of the iPod is YOU have the power to choose what's on it, so you NEVER have to hear garbage that irritates the shit out of you. That's why I have one song on my iPod, Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life." It is the pinnacle of achievement in the world of music, everything before and after it are crap.

Mercy, Debby Boone ate Karen Carpenter's lunch!

I am sure that they actually like the song... the fact that it was playing repeatidly probably annoyed them under the circumstances.

I'm gonna have to go with both FML and YDI here. Obviously you and your car got pretty damaged, and that sucks even if you did deserve it. However, this is definitely a YDI because you are clearly a terrible driver since you somehow managed to be driving so carelessly that you flipped your car... "in rush hour traffic"?

WTF? How the hell did you flip your car on the interstate? Unless you have exceptionally bad luck, there's likely to be at least some small part of that which happens to be your fault, even if others were involved. The song's right about one thing though - you're probably lucky to be alive.

Yeah, try flipping 5 times on the highway and breaking both of your femurs, damaging your right arm, and puncturing your ankle, just to spend a month in the hospital. While your sister gets out with a bruise when she was the one driving.

I didn't realize this was a contest of one-upmanship.
