Today, my new neighbors moved in across the street. Also today, they began to park at the end of my driveway. Not used to a car being there, I backed out and promptly hit it. Welcome to the neighborhood. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I met my new neighbors when they backed into my parked car. FML
Today, some new people moved into the house next door to mine. The previous occupants were very loud and obnoxious day in and day out, so I was looking forward to some sanity. When I went outside, I noticed they'd parked their cars on my lawn. FML
Today, I tried to back my car into my parking space while some of my neighbors were out by their cars. I accidentally rammed into the retaining wall behind my spot. I was hoping the neighbors didn't notice the huge crunching sound, but they did. FML
Today, I was driving around a parking lot, looking for an empty spot. Someone was backing out a bit too quickly as I was about to pass by, so I honked to announce myself. The driver instead panicked and reversed into my front bumper. FML
Today, I came outside to leave for work. To my shock and horror my car was gone. My asshole neighbor, who has parked in my spot multiple times decided to let her noisy guests park in my parking spot, so I parked in hers. She had my car towed. FML
Today, I watched as the teenage neighbor girl tried to parallel-park between me and my wife's cars. She was doing pretty well until she backed into mine, got scared, hit the accelerator and ran into my wife's. FML
Today, my dad moved my car onto the street so he wouldn't accidentally back into it while moving our boat. My neighbor backed into it instead. FML
Today, I caught my new neighbor sticking his knob inside my car and pissing on my seats. His reason? I parked in his spot. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket for parking in my neighbors' parking spot. I parked there because my neighbors were parked in my parking spot. FML
Today, while in a parking lot, I accidentally cut someone off out of pure nervousness, as I'm a new driver. I got out of my car to apologize, and they responded by beating me and my car to a pulp with a baseball bat. FML

regardless of them now parking there, wouldn't you normally, idk, use your eyes when backing out?

I think they sell driver's manuals at Amazon. The book isn't a bad read. I recommend it. It'll tell you how to avoid situations like this for future references. You're welcome OP :-)

Driving for ******* Morons isn't currently available and Driving for Dummies is too advanced..

It sucks that the neighbors did that, but you completely deserved that. It's common sense to always look when backing up your car.

Is the whole neighborhood full of idiots?

You do realise youre supposed to LOOK when reversing right? "There's never been a car there before!" Is not a defence. Next time, drive properly! YTDI

That'll teach them to park at the end of your driveway! A firmly-worded note on their windshield would be the norm in an ordinary neighborhood, but your going full-on demolition derby on their ass shows them their not in Kansas anymore, ya bad witch!

On the bright side they probably won’t park there anymore.

I see no fml here...you are a lucky one, OP. It could have been a kid. Don't you look when you back out? Be thankful you did not hurt or kill someone!

You should always look at where you're going, even when going in reverse.

Looking back, this probably seems obvious.

You're lucky that it was a parked car and not a pedestrian.
