What are some misfortunate things that have happened to you? |
What are some things that have happened to you in the past that really sucked? Either hurt emotionally or physically? I'm just curios to hear some people's stories. I'll go first. A few months ago I opened my garage to get my bike out just to discover it was gone. I had to buy another one for like $400.00. What really sucks is that the bike that was stolen was only like 2 months old (I have also gotten my bike run over by a secret agent of the president the year before). 2 weeks after getting my bike stolen and getting a new one I decided it was a good idea to skateboard down a huge hill. I lost control and started swerving, fell, and broke my arm. I then had to walk 3 miles home with a broken arm. A half week after breaking my arm I'm walking to school and there's a slow moving truck that has stopped traffic on the street I needed to cross. I started to cross the street since one of the cars seemed to be waiting for me. The next thing I know (continue in more details)... Wow, Kevin. <long descending whistle> I never believed in bad luck until I read your story. For me, 2 yrs ago, I decided to visit London again and took a friend with me. When I was there the previous year, I had gotten sick from the extreme cold and couldn't do anything or take any pictures. This 2nd trip, I was prepared with a disposable camera, warm coat, etc. I went to a huge museum, somewhere, & friends I had met the previous yr took us to all the places in London that needed their pictures taken. Then we went shopping, and all was well since we only had 2 days' vacation left. Well, 2 minutes from where we were staying, someone cut thru the leather shoulder strap of my purse that was hanging hands-free for 30 seconds, and stole it. For some reason, I had my passport in there, my driver's license, health insurance cards, my disposable camera that only had 2 exposures left, a couple of baby pictures different friends had just given me of their offspring, and 拢40 which I believe is approx $75. I had to go to the police station to make a report, and they all made fun of the American who said she lost her "purse" instead of "bag." Columbus Day is an American holiday, so the American embassy was closed. We spent our last rainy day at the embassy from 6:30am-4:50pm, since I needed $180 to be sent Western Union from my father to me so that I could get another passport that day, or have to stay in England indefinitely. The 5-hr time difference is in unison w/ Western Union. It SHOULD be immediate like IM. Long story short, I finally got home and got new ID's, etc, but I travel verrrry intelligently now. Source(s): Hmmm...after reading everyone else's, I see that my experience was a walk in the park... I bought a brand new 2006 car a week ago. Five days later someone dinged my door. The next day I was rear-ended by an uninsured motorist. The good news is that the car salesman is now my boyfriend, and he is so HOT. Most physical pain I remember was when I was around 4-5 years old and a jelly fish landed on top of my foot ... we were in Mexico, so I was just a stupid english kid bawling ... but, man did it hurt. about two weeks ago i was on vacation and i was walking down the street with a friend and some guy came up to us showed that he had a gun and told us to give him our purses. i had to get my truck, my house, and my mailbox all re-keyed because my keys were in my purse, i had to get new id, cancel my credit cards and get a diff. bank acct. numbert. then to top all that off my little bible was in my purse. i'd had that since 1989! Some people have mistaken me for a guy my whole life.... my grandfather died on fathers day, three months later one month after her birthday my mother died and six months after that my aunt died. 1988, 1989 shittiest years of my life. and my families. |
