I just bought an '05 Civic a couple of weeks ago Saturday. On Monday, I drove the the insurance office to get the policy change done. On my way home from there, a gravel truck throws a rock and my windshield cracked from the bottom to about 3/4 the way up, directly in front of me. By the time I got home, the crack had split, and was heading off in 3 directions. I called the insurance office, and asked the guy when was the soonest after insurance was put on a car that a claim had been made. Gahhh....$250 deductible, anyway, so I paid the whole thing.

Not for you. Lots of $$$ for the dude you bought the car from.

I get up to the checkout girl at the supermarket with 50 items of groceries and realize I left my wallet in the car...I've done that twice recently. :roll:

It was one of the worst months ever in my second year in college. I fried my Athlon T bird, earlier in the month, then when I got a new one, my friend dropped my monitor and I had to RMA that, then I got the monitor back and when I was taking it out of the car, my watch fell off my wrist and the glass shattered on the concrete. To top it off a bird took a crap on my head and my transmission in my car died by the end of the month.


Last month I got a fortune cookie that said "God gave you one face and you make yourselves another". What the hell does that mean"?

didn't you get it checked out by the mechanic before you bought it ? Shouldn't they have noticed something ?

I was driving home in my 1988 Pontiac Firebird, and the throttle cable got stuck while I was doing 55 or so. Well I let off the gas to hit the break, and the car won't stop, won't slow. It actually started going faster. And faster. I was flying down the street freaking out that I was going to hit someone. I could not get the shifter to move at all (it was automatic). Eventually I slammed the shifter into neutral and coasted to a stop, my car was smoking.
I thought my car had had it.
And then some black dude comes limping up to my car. He looks at me, and then says, "You got any weed man?"
I just look at him and say no. Then he says, "What you got in yo bag?" He was looking inside my passenger window. I said I didn't have any weed. Then he decided to stick his hands in my car to go through my bag and said, "You sho you ain't got no weed?"
I told him to get his hands out of my fvcking car.
Then he looked at me, sized me up (I was actually bigger than him, and I am 5'7" 140lbs), and left. He was about to get the sh!t beat out of him, and I think he knew it.

You should have shared. :|

I should have hit him with my car.

When I spent 3 hours yesterday trying to figure out this stupid bug here at work, then when I realize I just needed to move the

nilCounter := 1;

out of its current for loop, and move it up literally 2 lines of code, and that solved the problem I had been investigating for 3 hours in completely different ways

Leaving my then 1 year old out of my line-of-sight for 10 seconds while I looked for a diaper and coming back to a poop angel (like a snow angel but slightly smellier) on our white family room carpet.

I do most of my own work if I can. The problem never manifested itself until after a couple of days of ownership.

That was your donation to FEMA. Didn't you get the memo?

So the driver's side window on my car stopped working about a year ago. It was pretty inconveniencing, but it never bothered me too much. Well last week I took my car in to get a couple new tires. When the guy calls me to tell me the car's ready, he starts asking me if there is a trick to rolling the window back up. Sure enough, teh window decided to roll down for the first time in a year and wouldn't roll back up. Even better, it was the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, meaning all the mechanics were closed until Tuesday. Finally, to top it all off, it started raining shortly after leaving the tire shop and didn't stop all weekend.
