Today, as I was closing my car door, I realized I had left the keys in the ignition. Not wanting to lock myself out, I reached to stop the door from closing. Not only did I scream when the door slammed on my hand, but in my furious pain, I leaned on the door, locking my keys inside. FML

Today, I shut my finger in the car door. The door locked. Then I dropped the keys on the ground and couldn't reach them. FML

Today, I locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. FML

Today, I locked my keys in the car while the car was running because I got out to get the parking ticket attached to my windshield. FML

Today, as I stepped out the door and heard it lock behind me, I realized I had forgotten both my keys and my baby inside. There's no other way in. FML

Today, while driving, I realized I had left my phone on top of my car when I was getting in. Panicking, I drove back to look for it. I found it in the middle of the street, still intact. Yay! When I went back to my car, I noticed I had locked my door, and the keys were in the ignition. FML

Today, in a rush to get out of my house to go to a doctor's appointment, I closed the door behind me without having my house or car keys on me. Sadly, it took me less than a minute to break into my own house. FML

Today, whilst heading out the door to go to work, my lanyard got caught on the doorknob inside, and I watched my keys swing back inside as the door closed behind me. It was locked. FML

Today, I accidentally locked my car and house keys along with my phone in my car. Then I had to break into my own house looking for the spare. Someone called the police and I had to explain that I lived there. I forgot to grab the spare when I went to talk to the police officers I locked the door behind me. FML

Today, after numerous attempts, my car door still wouldn't unlock. After going ballistic on the lock, the key broke off inside. I then realized it wasn't my car. FML

Today, I tried to unlock my house's front door by hitting the unlock button on my car keys. It took me some time to realize my mistake. FML

That sucks... you must have a really old car or something, most modern cars won't lock the driver's door if the key is in the ignition.

Wait you don;'t have two sets of keys..most cars have 2 sets. "hey i left my keys in my cars" "So?" "Can you stop by my house/dorm and brab my keys" " Yah sure" And besides that fact you are posting this means you got them.

My mom once locked the keys in the car once. AND LEFT THE CAR ON. Only difference is she didn't hit her hand. But either way, we had to wait about half an hour for my dad to come all the way from work to unlock the car. Blah. Well, anyway, that really sucks. I hope you had copies of the key!
