This sucks, I'm such an idiot, totally my fault. It's her birthday too. I was headed there for the party

I didn't hit the actual house house part but I hit a piller on the porch and it's smashed in two. I came in way too fast and they have a large yard. I hit the brake, didn't stop in time, hit the pillar. I didn't drive through it or anything I was just about stopped that much but I tapped it hard enough with the Trailblzer to break it in half. I told them I would pay for it and all shaken up and then I was asked to leave..

Seriously I feel so horrible. It won't be that bad to repair but that's not what's so bad it's that I did that. Totally not me, I hope I didn't ruin their entire night, I ruined my week and then some.
 
wow talk about embarassing, that musta really really sucked
 
Well, that was a bit silly wasn't it?

At least you offered to pay, and hopefully she'll forgive you.
 
yards....

i wish i had a yard....

anyway, why were you driving so fast?
 
I don't know. I wasn't purposely barreling through or anything, but I know I was going way too fast because it wouldn't have happened. I'm not making any excuses or anything it is my fault. The damages and fixing it aren't too big of a deal that much at all, just repair that pillar in a jiffy, but it's that I did that and their porch and stuff I feel horrible.
 
Hopefully you were drinking (Don't think I've actually said that before, but hey). Yes, that sucks a bit. At least you didn't crash through the actual house, exploding her guests into a pile of gore and eyes. Then you wouldn't be on the forums for a while!

Er, it'd be a hell of a lot worse if I was drinking! I wasn't, wouldn't drink and drive.

Yes, but then you'd have an excuse. As it is, gross vehicular ineptitude doesn't quite explain why you drove through someone's porch. At least, if someone drove through my house I would expect either alchohol or something. Otherwise I'd just think they're an idiot.

I saw someone crash into a Village Inn near my work. My first thought was "They'd better be drunk or stupid." No one expects this from the rational. No offense, seriously. I suppose it happens.

Well it's more like this than drove through it.


piller = | car = ***

It basically bumped it but hard enough to crack it (it's wood.) Really like I said the damage isn't so bad that I can't pay for it out of pocket and repair it for them in a day but that's not what has me feeling so farking horrible about it.
 
Could have been a simple excercise in speeding/revving to impress the ladies, when in fact that only impressess the guys. Some experts argue it is a form of repressed gayness?!

just trying to understand how you crashed into that thing!
 
I gotcha. Basically it's like a vehicular Party Foul. Out of curiousity, do you like the girl? That would make it much, much worse.
 
I'm I the only one laughing my arse off when reading this.... although i have been laughing uncontrolably at inappropriate things all today...


:LOL:

... or maybe it was just an accident.

Unless, of course.
 
That's crazy. That has to be one of the most embarissing things I've seen/heard of in a while. Hope she don't hate ya :( I know..say it wasn't yoU! Just someone looking like you who tied you up in your basement!
 
Oh please, it's so obvious that you were trying to assassinate her by destroying a load-bearing pillar thereby causing the porch to collapse and everybody to plummet to their respective dooms.

Remember though, it could have been a lot worse.
 
Reminds me of when Vincent crashed his car into the pillar of the drug dealers house in Pulp Fiction. The only difference is the pillar he hit was brick. But the same thing happened...he was going way too fast, drove through the yard and into the pillar. ****ing cool
 
seriously, why did she ask you to leave?? that just downright sucks..
 
You offered to pay for it and then they asked you to leave? Sorry, but that seems very rude on their part. Accidents happen.

yeah accidents happen but im sure those people were pretty upset when they asked him to leave.
in anger people say and do things they may not normally do.

anyway...give it some cooling off period and then see how to get back in their good graces so to speak.

Ive been doing the same - was driving with a few friends last night and our driver missed seeing a car at the roundabout and just bumped it. She was really upset when talking to the other woman and im not great in serious circumstances so i start joking with my other friends (who then had a hard time keeping it together)...I on the other hand was cool as a breeze when she got back in the car.

Also - im not sure how you miss seeing the porch...seems a its backed up by a house!
 
Look at it this way:

It could have been worse. You could have driven through the pillar, and caused the entire porch to fall on the party. Good on you for offering to repair it all though, I'm sure she'll be fine in a few days (or a week or two, depending on what she's like).
 
You drove into a stationary object :p, pff don't feel sorry for you, be more careful :p. Thats all it is to it, sorry.
 
Could've been worse, you could of hit the bithday girl :|

But offering your help in repairing the pillar is the right thing to do. :)

You'd be in a whole lot more trouble if you were drink driving.

Drink-driving is NOT an "excuse" or a licence to drive like an idiot and irresponsibly.

It's not like you are going to appear in court after running someone over, and the judge says "Well I'll let you off because you were drink driving, it's obviously not your fault" - rather you would probably get a longer time in jail.

Actually I'd be more pissed off with someone for drink driving into that pillar, as they have no regard for safety. I would be less pissed off if someone drove into my pillar without being under the influece - mistakes happen, but you're increasing the danger and risk of accidents tenfold if you drink and drive.

Happy birthday, I ****ed up ur porch! heres some cake.

Ahahahahahaaa :E

But seriously, them asking you to leave is just ****in' prude.
 
Woah... and you're telling us you wernt drunk? Haha, nice job.

But really, if your willing to pay, you wernt drunk, and you're sorry, I see no reason for this girl not to forgive you. If she dosent, shes pretty odd. One day you'll look back at this and laugh....... though she might not want to be around you, if you're behind the wheel ever again. :LOL:

But seriously, them asking you to leave is just ****in' prude.

I agree with Jody, that's not a nice thing to do. You've done what you can to make it better.

Kirovman is correct, as usual :D

As usual? :D So I'm not just an opinionated loud-mouth then? :LOL:

What's the sechs? I'm a bit suspicious :eek:

Yeah, agreed.

They just don't make pillars like they used to, these days.

I remember the good old days where a single pillar could cripple a Sherman tank, lest it forget to steer clear.

You are probably driving a automatic car and you still crash? oh dear :p
anyways, whats the cost of the fixing?

They don't make tanks like they used to, either :D

Just out of interest R.T, what car were you driving?

I can't believe you crashed her party.
