Pay up!

By Anonymous - 10/09/2009 01:44 - United States

Today, while driving on the tollway my car overheated and died a few yards from the toll booth. I then had to wait, crying, in my smoking car for a patrol guy while cars moved around me. He had to push me through the toll and the lady in the booth said she felt sorry for me but still took my $3. FML

Today, after paying $3 at the toll booth and having my car die a few yards from the phone booth, I posted a story on FML hoping to feel better about myself. After it got accepted, it turned out I have to pay $3 just to have it published! I started crying. FML.

You actually EXPECT to be exempted from paying the toll? Unbelievable.

What's with the crybaby theme? Although I suppose it's better than the "I got cheated on, poor me" theme.

Either this was poorly written or whoever wrote this just wanted to bitch about a bad day on FML...I feel like this sounded like a diary entry rather than a "funny" FML. YDI for thinking that a broken down car is going to keep you from paying the toll fee. You DO know what that pays for, right? The upkeep of the road you're driving on. SO if people were exempted from toll fees for things like cars breaking down (because believe me, you AREN'T the first person for this to happen to) then it would take even longer for the roads to be fixed and you'd end up back on FML whining about hitting a pothole or some BS like that. Next time, wait until you get your full license to drive rather than driving with a permit. You obviously aren't adult enough to handle the responsibilities and possible problems that come with driving.

The whole point of FML is simply to bitch about a bad day. Let off some steam. And the OP probably didn't expect not to have to pay for the toll.. I'm sure they know exactly what it is for. They just put that part in there because, after what already happened, it would just make things that much worse. And what was up with that part about only having a permit or whatever..? That made no sense Anyways, to the OP, I'm sorry, but YDI. That's why you check all the meters on your car as you're driving. Cars don't just spontaneously overheat.

All you had to do was to call a tow truck or something, NOT sit there and cry. & what makes you think you deserve to be exempted from paying the toll just because you cried? You were still making use of the road. Grow up OP.

YDI for crying, it never ever helps the situation. YDI for getting the dude to push ur car, and not helping. YDI for thinking u were exempt from the toll, and YDI for bitching over having to pay $3
