This is a question Karma

Sue Denham writes, "I once slipped out of work two hours early without the boss noticing. In my hurry to make the most of this petty victory, I knocked myself out on the car door and spent the rest of the day semi-conscious, bowking rich brown vomit over my one and only suit."

Have you been visited by the forces of Karma, or watched it happen to other people?

Thanks to Pooflake for the suggestion

Cheating, Cars and Paedophiles, Part 2
This story is more recent and relates to the 18-month relationship I got out of just over a year ago. One half of it, with her being a modded-car obsessed chav who I have no idea why I was involved with in the first place, was her cheating on me with some bloke she knew who had invested £65,000 in a 'drift car' at the height of the 'Tokyo Drift' craze and would regularly 'take her for spins' in it to get her excited. One night when he was showing off, without her in it, he wrapped the thing around a lamp post, forgetting that when you try to steer a car modded for drifting, it carries on in pretty much the same direction it was previously travelling, only sideways. He was, sadly, completely unharmed, but the car was a complete write off, and, as a result of not exactly being road legal, was completely uninsured. £65,000 down the drain, massive debts to pay off on it, and not nearly as cool and sexy without his exotic car.

I don't know why I took her back after that, being someone who can't be arsed with cars or bothering to stick bits of fiberglass to one so I can pretend I'm doing the Paris to Dakar rally on the way to the shops, but I did, but it's worth it for the second part of the story. When she did exactly the same thing again.

This time she left me for a bloke who had a reputation for shagging around all the impressionable women who were impressed by his Subaru somethingorother, so off she went to meet him, jumped on his cock the minute she got out of his car, and instantly fell head over heels in love with him, while he instantly told her to piss off and moved on to his next conquest. Cue her going through exactly what I went through when she left me initially, and me laughing my absolute arse off.

Now she's dropped out of her course, has no job, and lives on a council estate somewhere with a bloke in his mid-30s, who doesn't even have a precious car, that uses her as a free live-in babysitter for his kids by another woman, and every time she gets drunk (which is often), I get a text or an email from her asking what I'm up to and telling me how shit her life is. I don't reply, because it'd be unfair to kick her while she's down. Or would it?

Yeah, it probably would be unfair
Also, I see no evidence of paedophiles in this tale.

Good retribution for her being a slag though. Set your standards higher next time, eh?

The paedophiles were in the previous one.
If you look closely, there are no cars in the previous one. Technicalities, technicalities, all I know is that's going to be in my autocomplete forever.

no it wouldn't.
full stop.
she made her choice(s) and needs to live with it.
how else will she learn?
and if she doesn't learn do you really need to give a shit?
responsibility can be a painfull lesson to learn!
