If it weren't for bad luck...

So on my way home this "evening" I was driving along at a pretty good speed, and all of a sudden HOLY CRAP THAT'S A GOD-DAMN CAT RUNNING ACROSS THE STREET and I slammed on my brakes and thankfully the little feline stopped before I flattened it.
The cat was black, and darted back around my car as I pulled away with my nerves tingling and the scent of burning rubber filling my nose... and I wondered, did I just save myself from some bad luck since the black cat didn't actually cross my path? Would have been cursed with incredibly bad luck had the cat not gotten out of the way the last second, my vehicle transforming the being into a mere blood smear across the pavement?
When have you run into bad luck?
When have you avoided it, and how?
We'll find out how I fair against the fates in the coming days I'm sure...

Also, spill salt
And I only have 12 friends, and I invite them over for dinner all the time
car in front pulled over thinking he had run over it
i guess i shoulda stopped as i was driving past to tell him it ran off and wasnt dead
but there was someone else in my car and we were both a bit suprised and the dude coulda looked at the road and seen that there was no body
also the dude was driving a convertible fuck him
he was probably just stopping to check that there were no dents or blood spatters on his bumper that might scare off any potential 12 year old girlfriends
It was just standing in the middle of the road. I'd flicked off my highbeams because of an oncoming car, and as they passed me, I flicked them back on just in time to see the cat. There was no way for me to swerve out of the way as I was going 65mph down an old country highway, a sharp jerk of the wheel could send me catapulting into the ditch because my car has a semi-high center of balance.
However, not turning it enough to avoid the cat would line it square with my tires.
So I just chose to go straight over it, hoping the cat would have the presence of mind to duck under my relatively high suspension.
I saw no blood on my car when I got to work that night, and there was no smear on the road on the drive home. Now, that could mean that I simply wanged the cat with my undercarriage, fatally wounding it, but leaving it just alive enough to climb into the ditch.
But I like to think that the cat escaped unharmed.
Maybe he ran over a cat or small dog who was chasing the possum across the road.
STEAM!
I fucking hate cars.
TLDR: I hit a bird, birds are weird.
completely true
fur was stuck to the front of truck where i hit it it also dented some steel
Ridding the world of a witch incarnate and all
I was driving down a hill and the edge of the road was covered in forest undergrowth. A deer ran out in front of the car. I slowed down and it got across the road.
So just as I hit the gas again another deer jumps out in front of my car, this time like 10 feet in front of me. I slammed on the brakes but still hit it dead on.
The deer flew several feet forward, and hit the pavement. The world stopped for a moment as I sat in my car and the deer just laid in the road.
Then time resumed and the deer jumped up, stared bewildered at my car and then took off running after the first deer. There wasn't any damage to my car either.
i think not
No but I have released panthers in the middle of the city
We were on I think I-35 northbound, only car on the road, in a 1998 F-150 nascar edition so it sits a little higher & such(my dads truck), I was in the passenger seat with the seat leaned back trying to sleep, when all of a sudden something in my mind says "open your eyes do it now"
So the northbound lane is high than the southbound, with a hill going up to it from the other side. Which means in the dark you can't see anything down that slope.
I open my eyes and for a brief moment this beautiful, majestic deer was frozen high in the air, at the zenith of his jump, legs tucked under, then time started again, the deer collided with the front of the hood, bounced towards the top of the windshield, and time slowed again as it passed that short distance, it appeared as if an infinite number of legs & hooves were projecting all possible angels from the main body of the deer, and in that microsecond my mind yells out "THE LORD OF ALL DEER!".
It collides with the top of the windshield, slids up over the roof and then *thuds* and rolls on the pavement. My dad regains control of the truck as we'd just lost the front drivers side tire at high speed, windshield is boned, airbags go off but I'm leaning back so it doesn't hit me, cab is filled with smoke, my mom is freaking out and I'm still sitting there just all "whoa".
yeah, you read that right
i was driving up the hill to my parents house late one night and a buck with a couple of does are standing right by the side of the road
i creep by real slow and they dont move, until i get right next to them
the buck rears back on his hind legs and crashes his antlers down on the driver side door and then gives me a "fuck you" look
or rather kicked by one
Well it jumped up on me and then someone walked into the room that it hadn't seen for ten minutes so it got incredibly excited and jumped off and somewhere in that 3 second interplay it tore open my arm somehow.
Then we saw it - not a an animal or body, but just chunks. Pieces of whatever had been dragged hundreds of feet. We instantly realized that it was not paint, but some kind of large... something... that had been literally pureed across the road not long before we got there. I didn't have to swerve or change lanes because the pieces were thinly scattered across the whole road.
Probably the grossest thing we've ever seen on the road, but at least we didn't have to be the ones that hit it.
I guess.
Dude, my husky's got some big ass nails and he could scratch the fuck out of you if they haven't been trimmed in a while.
An angry one.
We drove past the area later, wasn't pretty.
