Default Wow a massive piece of plywood fell off of a truck right in front of me...

as I was discussing with my friend the horrendous car luck I've had. Somehow and I really have no idea how, I managed to maneuver around it to avoid it hitting my car. At first it looked like it would just lay down, but air got under it and it flipped on it's side a few times. I could have had pretty decent damage if I didn't avoid it.

In summation don't lend me your keys right now.

Default Wow. I guess that swerve stuff they teach you in Driver's Ed does pay off...

or maybe you just got mad good driving skills. I'd actually take that you missed it as a good sign.

Default As bad as your luck is right now, it is nowhere near as bad as iwasawesome from the b5 board.

His luck has been rotten for the last 2 months.

Default Hopefully I don't forget everything.

First b5 was totalled by another driver ~6 months ago.

His brother jump started his next b5 with a golf cart. - $9500 worth of electronic damage.

Moved back to Canada and got $2300 worth of fees. They said he was lying about the value of his car.

Girl bumped into his car in a parking lot. Minimal damage though.

Was involved in a hit and run, the front end of his car was fuxored.

Got a letter in the mail saying that his liscense was revoked for a month, for some mix up with a female cop.

Just recently got a ticket for parking his car outside without a front bumper.

Except for the totaling of his first car, all of this has happened one right after the next. I might be forgetting a few too.

Overall, his luck has sucked.
