Today, I was going so slow in traffic that my GPS asked me if I wanted to switch to pedestrian mode. FML

Today, while I was driving, Google said it found a faster route to save me 15 minutes. I hit accept, only be directed into a gridlock on the interstate, adding an hour to my drive time. FML

Today, I was driving in stop and go traffic and passed two accidents in the process. I got nervous and decided to change routes to avoid getting hit. As I was trying to find an alternative route on my GPS, I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, after leaving work at 10 pm, I took a shortcut to the highway. After getting lost, my GPS informed me that the service was unavailable and I should try back in an hour. This occurred moments before I ran out of gas. FML

Today, I was driving out to a concert I've been excited about for months. I was using my GPS to guide me to the venue. It decided to guide me to an abandoned warehouse in the middle of town. FML

Today, I was wrapping up my move in a 16-foot truck with my car in tow. Google rerouted me to avoid traffic... through a state park. The road had only one lane. I can still hear the phalanx of cars honking at me. FML

You were prob in the left lame too. You deserve it.

how does being in the left lane means he deserves it? The left lane is for passing other cars, so maybe OP was going to do that, but then found traffic? Or maybe OP wasn't even in the left lane. Either way, unless OP is one of the people who do not even go the speed limit in the left lane and just stay there, I don't know if he really deserves to be in the traffic where his GPS asked him if he wanted to switch to pedestrian mode...

Anyone who has ever operated an automobile has experienced the pains of traffic, I seriously feel like ever since I bought my car everyone has slowed down...or maybe I'm just going faster.

Today, I went out to dinner with my boyfriend and his mom. The hostess asked if I needed "the kid's menu," remarked how I look "so grown up for your age," and asked what grade I was in. I said I'm in university. She laughed as if it was the best joke ever told. I'm 22. FML

Today, I really wanted to spend a night of passion with my lover, so I'd arranged to meet him in a very classy hotel, gave him the room number, and waited for him in a super-sexy outfit. There was a knock at the door, so I opened it slowly and enticingly, assuming it was him. It was room service. FML
