Today, I woke up at 6:00 am to the sound of somebody laying on their horn outside my apartment. I ran outside to yell at them only to find out it was my car. The horn was shortcircuting. All my neighbors stood on their porch laughing as I repeatedly punched my steering wheel to make it stop. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after a few months of my neighbor's friend parking outside his house and honking until he came outside, I happened to be out doing lawn work. I politely screamed, "STOP HONKING YOUR F***ING HORN!" To which they responded by moving in front of MY house and holding down their horn. I hate people. FML
Today, the horn in my car decided to malfunction. It honked continuously for an hour as I drove down the highway. FML
Today, I awoke to the sound of my neighbors attacking my car with a baseball bat accusing me of calling the cops on them. I did call the cops on them, after they screamed at me last night, drunkenly, to call the cops for them because they thought they were being robbed. FML
Today, one of my idiot co-workers thought it'd be hilarious to "fix" my car while I was working. Now every time I step on the brake pedal, the horn goes off. FML
Today, I was awoken by my neighbor pounding on my back door at 3 am, only to look outside and see my car engulfed in flames. FML
Today, my car horn got some sort of short and started beeping every 20 seconds or so. On the way to get it fixed, I got stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. Behind a cop car. FML
Today, I woke up to find my car broken into. After being upset for not hearing my car alarm go off I realized it had in the middle of the night. I had woken up and cursed the idiot who set off their alarm and put a pillow over my head, falling back to sleep shortly after. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my car being stolen. FML
Today, I was so tired, I passed out at work in the middle of a call. All because my neighbor's car alarm kept going off every 3 minutes all through the morning. It was still going when I left for work. If you see a news story in a few days about a whole neighborhood beating a guy to death, that's probably us. FML
Today, we have an asshole neighbor who owns a loud muscle car. Another neighbor called the cops on him for constantly revving the engine and breaking the noise ordinance. He now purposefully drives by their house at odd hours of the night to blare his horn and wake everybody up. I live across the road from them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That would be really embarrassing. Sorry OP. I am wondering how effective punching the steering wheel was in remedying this.

You fail at popping your hood and disconnecting your battery.

why would you disconnect the battery? just disconnect the horn.

You think the OP would know where to even look to disconnect the horn? At least the battery is out in the open staring her in the face.

No, actually this does suck for most modern cars. Disconnect the battery and you lock out the stereo system and now you have to figure out the code to get it to work again (same goes for other some electronics). Usually the horn fuse is in an auxiliary fuse panel that you have to remove a kickboard to access. your best bet it to beat on the steering column until it stops and then get the steering wheel puller out (if you have one) to get at the little spring loaded contact that is causing this. Sucks, had to take care of this one before. FYL.

At least they just laughed at you. This could have been worse if a neighbour came out with your intentions, or to kick your ass. Take it as a story you'll ALL laugh about later.

That's hilarious. You should've just popped the fuse out. But at least they all laughed rather than yelled, like you did. :P

I'm pretty sure the OP doesn't know what the **** "shortcircuiting" means.

YDI for not knowing how to fix it!

Either you're joking, or you're an ass. There're a lot of things I know how to do, but fixing a car horn isn't one of them...

Yeah right. Do you know how to? And even if you do know do you know how to, I don't know, cook, ski, woodwork, garden, program a computer, build a rocket, ect? No one knows everything ass.

Be glad they were laughing. If i had to wake up at 6:00 to the sound of a horn, i would not think its funny.
