Eff Me Once: warming up/riding EZ at Long Branch before the gang got there with almost brand new Grifo tubulars (one practice & one race old) -- flat.
Eff Me Twice: jump into a hot lap with the gang on the brand new, never ridden tubulars glued up last night -- stick with eyes jumps into rear derailleur & rips it off
Eff Me 3x: while the derailleur is ripping off, the new chain I put on last week (w/only 1 race on it) decides to imitate a pretzel.
Bonus Eff Me: On 690 cruising home in a combo bummed/pissed mood (with a messed up bike on the roof rack) and a freaking re-tread pops out from around a car as I'm changing lanes and slams the underside of the car.
Having realized that it don't mean shit because I am still pretty lucky when I consider the big picture ... Priceless (and a vodka martini or two never hurts either)

Eff Me Update: Add a rear derailleur to the list! Perhaps the most expensive stick I ever ran over.
