It's all too much
Today, my car crapped out in the middle of the road, after over a year of only being able to find short contract jobs, all while juggling the grief of the back to back deaths of my mother and grandfather. FML

Today, I finally got enough money to buy the car I wanted for a year now. It was stolen today too. I had my car for 4 hours. FML

Today, my car broke down because it couldn't wait two more days for an oil change. Now it might be FUBAR. FML

Bad time for insurance denials
Today, my car broke down dead in the middle of the highway. As I was unable to get it out of the road, it was impounded, and my insurance won't help. Now I'm further in debt and struggling to get to work. FML

Today, my car died after I got off work at 1am. All of my coworkers had already left and nobody could come out to jump my car. I had to walk the 3 miles home in a torrential downpour. FML

Today, the little bell in my car that lets you know your keys are still in your ignition went out. How did I find out? I locked myself out of both my house and my car. FML

Isn't there typically a key inside the fob? And the ignition button pops out to have a key slot to start the car?

OP’s house burned down two days ago. As he/she was about to leave to pick up donations for their plight the key fob died.

You realize that google is at your fingertips, right? “A Key Fob for a car is a small electronic device that acts as a remote control and provides access to an automobile, without needing a key.” That button thingy that locks/unlocks and can start your car.

Unlock your car with the hidden key blade and then lookup where to put the dead key fob in the owner's manual.

not my key fob. Mine has a little key that can be removed to open the front driver door. You have to pry off a section of the handle to get to the key hole, but there is no ignition key hole. I did read online that if my fob is dead, I can set it inside the front cup holder and the car will be able to recognize the fob.

That is interesting, mine has a key blade hidden in side it, the key opens the door, and where the ignition button is pops out allowing you to start the car, can't drive far but it should allow you to get to a dealership if one is close by
