Today, I went outside to scrape the inch and a half of ice off my car so I could get to work. After half an hour of intense scraping, I realized that it wasn't my car. FML

on the bright side, think how much you must have helped the owner of that car :]

wow, how could you not notice within, like, the first ten minutes?

what a douche.. so your fault.

I initially wrote how the naysayers should consider how thick 1.5" of ice actually is - that's absolutely nuts - and how 30 minutes of scraping and not knowing which car was yours was perfectly plausible. Then I read this was posted from Oklahoma. I don't believe Oklahoma gets 1.5" of ice building up on cars... I have lived in much colder, more precipitous areas, and have not seen that. I think this is hyperbole... I would guess it took him all of 5 minutes to clean the car and until he realized it wasn't his.

Oklahoma does get ice storms often. We are currently having a rather nasty one that dumped a couple inches of ice and about six inches of snow on everything. It's a mess, so I could see how this could happen. On the bright side, I haven't been to school since last Wednesday...

I know Oklahoma gets ice storms, however I still don't see it leaving ice 1.5" thick. That's just a lot of ice. I have been through many ice storms living all over the midwest, northeast, and in Toronto for a short period. I don't doubt that he had "a lot" of ice on his car, however half an inch of ice is a lot... I think the OP just exaggerated a lot. That's all.

No, that's not an exaggeration. I live in central Oklahoma and I have to park my car outside. What happened was that freezing rain fell, and then right after that we had at least six inches of snow, and part of the snow froze to the ice itself.

actually I live in northern Oklahoma it is totally possible that with the recent ice storm tht he got that much ice on his car. our roads are still covered in ice here. n it took me a while to clean my car off to when I decided to it was safe to drive

I agree!! FYL. I also live in Oklahoma and I had to scrape my car after work and it took me 30minutes with probably as much ice as this guy had on his car. Had the defrost going and had to pry open the doors to get in. That was also before the freezing rain turned into snow! So I could totally see this happening and so I feel sorry for him that he wasted his time in the effing cold!!

terribly sorry but YDI for the following reasons A) you should just know your car. I mean u said scrape off ice not 10 feet of snow then i can understand. B) you shoulda remembered your parking spot C) u spent all that time doing something nice but nothing good came out of it bwhahahaha
