Today, I was sitting shotgun in the car. A huge bug came inside, and everyone began to freak out so naturally I began to swat at it. I got the fly, but I also cracked the windshield. I paid $229 to kill a bug. FML

Today, about to fall asleep, a bug started buzzing behind the screen to my window. Losing my sanity, I punched the screen, forgetting all about the glass. I now have a cracked window and one still annoying bug. FML

Creeped out

Today, as I was driving, a massive cockroach clicked its way across my windshield. I pulled over to fling it out the window, but it spread its wings and flew around like a hook-armed stabbing machine. I lost it in the dark car and now I can't find it. It's going to be a long drive home. FML

Today, while I was eating, a fly kept pissing me off. After three minutes of it buzzing around, I caught it and killed it. Then, without realizing it, I smeared its guts all over the front of my shirt. FML

Today, as I was hanging washing out in the sun, a huge cicada flew into my face and somehow got behind my glasses. I screamed and ripped them off and ran away. I came back to a broken pair of VERY expensive glasses. FML

Today, I thought it would be funny to pee on a small bug in the toilet. A much larger bug thought it would be funny to fly into my eye while I was doing this. FML

Fancy a pint?

Today, while I was relaxing outside drinking a beer after a long day, a moth decided to fly right into my ear canal. I instinctively threw my hand up to swat it out. With the same hand holding the beer. I soaked the side of my face and down my ear. At least I got the bug out. FML

Today, I noticed an extremely large bug buzzing around my room. After several attempts, I stomped on it with my shoe. I was trying to get a closer look at my victory when it flew into my nostril. Turns out it was just playing dead. FML

Today, I was taking a break in my work truck when I saw a huge swarm of bees flying my way. I have a hand crank window so I started cranking it up as fast as I could and the knob snapped off before it closed and I got stung by the whole swarm before I could get out. FML

Today, I spent an hour and a half washing my car. As I was driving down the highway, a large bird flew over my car and accidentally dropped the dead animal he was about to have for dinner. It landed on my windshield. FML

Today, I spazzed out in my car and broke my windshield. All over a fly, FML.

@ #15 all safety glass means it that it's laminated so when broken the pieces don't go flying everywhere. I don't know if it's possible to break a windshield by swatting a fly, but my friend cracked mine by kicking it. A few years ago my friend was sitting in the passenger seat with her feet on the dashboard while I ran into the house to get something. When I was walking back I head a loud crack and saw my friend moving around like mad. Apparently a orange ladybug got into the car and bit her on the back of the leg causing her to kick and break my windshield.

Unless you tried swatting the fly with a hammer, I ain't buyin' it.

#16 if memory serves me from like high school history, I think the term "shotgun" comes from the old horse and buggy/cowboy days. You had the driver who had both hands busy with the horses and they had someone sitting next to them who actually had a shotgun so they could protect themselves and whatever they had with them. Anyway...... I agree with others, the windshield had to be about to go if you were able to break it that easily.
