Today, my dog was run over. The man who ran over my dog was taking his own dog to the emergency vet. As the man awkwardly tried to apologise to me, he said, "Think of the irony". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I took my dog to the vet. Wanting to seem like a responsible owner, I lifted him onto the exam table. My back then cracked loudly, I dropped him, and he ran straight into a trash can. The vet sighed and asked, “Rough day for both of you?” FML
Today, a dog attacked me. Its owner, instead of apologizing and helping me, said it was my own fault for making it think I was an attacker by running past them. We were on a jogging track. FML
Today, while arriving at my best friend's wedding, I accidentally ran over her 2 dogs. FML
Today, at my surprise birthday party, my neighbor gave me a new dog collar. My dog was run over by him a week ago. FML
Today, my grandma's chihuahua was run over while I was taking her for a walk. She later whispered to me, "It should have been you." FML
Today, it's been a week since my brother asked me to watch his dog while he's on a business trip. I let his dog out to do his business, and he ran right in front of a pickup. The driver didn't stop in time, and crushed the dog's head. I went to check on him. He's dead, and I will be too when my brother gets back. FML
Today, I was playing with my dog, teasing her, to cheer myself up after being dumped by my girlfriend. My dog bit me hard and I had to go to hospital. The dog has to be put down. FML
Today, I went for a run, and my own dog attacked me. FML
Today, I was on the job as an ambulance driver, I got a call about a man who claimed he'd had a heart attack. When I got to the house, it turned out the man was fine. I did however manage to hit a dog on the way there in fear of the man dying. FML
Today, I was backing out of my garage when my neighbour's collie ran behind my car. Unfortunately, I didn't see it, but I heard a thump. They were out, so I rushed him to the vet's. I was upset, and I guess I was driving too fast and didn't see that another dog was crossing the road. I killed two dogs today. FML

He was probably trying to lighten the mood and failed miserably. Sorry for your loss :(

At least he apologized instead of just driving away. It is pretty ironic though. But did he offer to take YOUR dog to the vet? Or at least pay the medical bills? That is, if the dog was still alive. Either way, sorry, OP :(

**** that fool. He could have easily ran you down instead. But please clarify, did he stop or did he meet you at the vet?

Y u no use your brainparts?!? Clearly, the guy sped up to 60mph, at which point OP gave chase, got hold of the rear bumper, dug his feet into the asphalt, and brought the car to a grinding halt. And that's when you have this confrontation take place. No, seriously though. Is this the kind of stuff that's conjured up in a mind that can't assume the most obvious scenario? Also, "he could have easily ran you down instead?" Are you trying to plead that the driver could've done much worst, but he didn't, and therefore OP should be what...thankful? Let's entertain the idea that this is case. Then why "**** the fool?" Should the OP be angry? Or thankful? I'm thoroughly confused. Is this the kind of stuff that happens in a mind that can't maintain a proper line of reasoning? Aaaaghh! My brainpart hurts. This post is akin to the well-known contradictory phrase: "This statement is false." An A.I. would effectively fry itself trying to make any sense of it.

Op should be thankful that they lost their dog rather than their own life. Who knows, maybe the driver speed off while op carried their dismembered dog to the vet. I can imagine it to be much more ironic for the driver to meet up with op at the vet. This alternative story can fit because there is no point stating it happened differently. Dose my bullshit inflict pain?

And similarly, my alternative story where OP chased after a car going 60mph and stopped it with brute force also fits, because there were no point stating it happened differently. And yes, a dose of your bullshit does inflict pain. Haha, okay man, I'm just being petty and giving you a hard time. I'll stop now.

At least the guy apologized. Judging by your name, I guess your dog didn't make it. I'm sorry for your loss, Op.

FYL... I feel kinda bad for the guy too though :/ He was probably in shock and sort of trying to make it better with humor...

I feel for your dog. Hope that the injuries weren't too severe. You should have dropkicked careless driver, though!

23- No, it's called shut the hell up and let this guy be sad about someone running over his dog. You have no idea what happened. So why don't you try feeling a little sorry for this guy? It isn't too hard, I promise.

Why is your dog roaming free? A leashed dog with a owner in control of him/her would have stopped your pet from those injuries! *** I was bit by a dog by a careless owner and now have a phobia of them! And I'm pissed because I could have learned to love dogs instead of fearing them thinking I'll get eaten by them one day!

You can still learn to love dogs even if you have a phobia of them. Just make sure you meet a nice one. When I was younger, I got bit by a Rottweiler and a German Shepard and I had to go to the hospital both times for stitches. Then, I met my neighbor's golden retriever who is super sweet and doesn't bite and now I've gotten over my fear of big dogs. =)

27 - Perhaps the dog ran out the front door when OP went to get the mail? Happens to me all the time... she just won't stay put. It's not always a case of the owner refusing to leash their dog.
Enslaved 38
I understand pets wanting to jolt out the doors but you knowing your dog does that from time to time means you could make a better effort to try to block that from happening. Ugh! I'm just a little bitter about bad dog/pet owners (definitely not saying you're one :P) Btw Steff, I'm now wondering if you ever did try Tiramisu. ;)

Leashes don't always help dog coulda been on one of those retractable leashes that never stop the dog when u need it to. Kid throws rocks at leashed dog dog goes to chomp kids ass leash isn't "stopping" as it should... 3k fine for me.

"My dog was ran over" doesn't make sense. "My dog was run over" does.
coughyochick 7
43- Source: Websters Dictionary Ran- verb. past tense of "run". Since I'm sure nobody is running over his dog. I'm right.
charlieo88 3
The dog *was* run over. He *ran* over the dog. Still sucks for the dog and the owner.
coughyochick 7
Yes, it still sucks. But I accomplished trolling somebody with actual facts.

*apologize. Just saying.

Many things spelled with a "z" in the US are spelled with an "s" in the UK.
VooDooCarrie91 19
Apologize can be spelled either way. Especially considering OP is from the UK.. Just saying >_>
5t3ff1k4h 47
Don't correct someone's spelling if you're ignorant to how their country spells certain words. Apologise is correct for the UK. The ignorance between countries stuns me.
