Today, it snowed. So, a guy I like and I decided to go sledding. I really wanted to impress him by going down the hill and casually slowing down at the bottom right at his feet. Instead, I crashed into him and broke his ankle. FML

Today, I went sledding with my friends. I said I was tired and didn't want to go, but they press-ganged me into it. I ended up sledding right into a tree, fracturing my leg, and scraping up my entire face. FML

Today, it was snowing but I had to let my dog out, so I picked him up and carried him outside. I slipped, landed on him and ended up breaking his leg. FML

Today, at a ski resort, I tried to impress an attractive girl on the slopes and failed, horribly. I ended up with a mild concussion and some serious cuts after tripping, tumbling and hitting my head against the ground. I don't think she was impressed. FML

Christmas is treacherous

Today, I decided to take my girlfriend out to look at Christmas lights and get hot chocolate. While cleaning my snow-covered truck, I slipped and broke three bones in my ankle, and now need surgery. FML

Today, it snowed a lot and my friends and I went outside for a walk. Someone drove by and threw a snowball at me, hitting me square in the face. Surprised, I side-stepped only to end up losing balance and roll down a hill into a ditch full of prickly bushes. FML

Today, while ice-skating with my girlfriend, I tried to do what they do in the movies and make her gently fall into my arms. Instead she slipped, fell, and hit her head on the ice. FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me and while trying to make a dramatic exit, I slammed his car door, slipped on the ice and landed on my back in front of a large crowd of onlookers. FML

Today, I went on a hike. It had snowed the night before so I wore warm clothes. They didn’t help when I slipped and broke my leg. FML

Today, I tried to walk on the sidewalk. Actually, it was so slippery that I had to shimmy across it. Then I shimmied too quickly and fell down. Now everything hurts. Maybe next time I should bring a sled. FML

Today, I walked in the snow and saw some kid slip. I laughed and felt good about myself. Then I fell. FML

Casually slowing down and stopping at his feet? Riiiiight. AND he didn't think to move out of the way? SO MUCH FAIL. And broken ankles suck :(

That's what you get for trying to "be cool," and control any sort of setting. That's un-cool.

How the heck would that impress anyone? I would be like "wow I wish she would hurry and stop already so it can be my turn" or "good, she stopped, my turn!" not like "WOW THAT WAS SO COOL, she's really hot!" ??? Oh, middle school, you are silly.

How would this necessarily impress someone? More to the point, you took a knowing risk to show off, so you brought it on yourself. (LOL) This is not an FML. Try again.

While you might not have impressed him you at least made an impression... in his flesh.

Slowing down at the bottom of the hill isn't all that impressive in the first place.

I love the thought of you imagining doing this and having him say, "My god woman, you've got the best sledding skills I've ever seen!" How exactly did you think you were going to impress him?
