I am fine...just the poor yaris is not so fine...Got the front facia, all the lights(head and fog) on the driver side, front fender, hood, and door(wont even open).
The insurance guy said this week he has had 20-25 deer and bear strikes. I hope they all die.....die,die,die.

A Yaris is NOT a legal deer hunting weapon! I am glad you are okay. I have "missed" a few small deer and had to lock em up when I encountered 2 full grown moose in the road.

Remember you did not hit the deer...... the deer hit you!

the very first day I got my yaris a deer ran out in the road on me. I just remember slamming on the breaks, swerving and half-way through it thinking "oh god no". Luckily the yaris stops pretty quick and I just sent two tires off the road. After I avoided it I parked on the side of the road walked around my brand new car checking for damage. Then I hugged it and told it that I was sorry the deer tried to hurt it.

Is it wrong that I feel a little bad for the deer, or is it one of those things I'd get lynched for saying in a car forum for?

It's hunting season where I live. Some people who spend days without seeing anything would consider you lucky.
