Today, whilst presenting a report to the head of my college, I was arrested by a police officer for assault. I was in a bar the night before and accidentally bumped into a local tough guy on the way to the toilet. I got punched in the face. The witnesses got our names mixed up. That'll look great on my CV.

Today, a customer at work became violent and started hitting me and my coworker. Not wanting him to get the shit beat out of us, I used a move that pinned the guy on the ground. The police came and he was arrested. I was then fired for assaulting a customer. FML

Today, I woke up in hospital after a night of heavy drinking. My friends told me I was beat up by the doorman. After going to the club to watch the security footage, it was revealed I actually fell on my face trying to fight, and caused more damage to myself. FML

Today, I got questioned by the police. Last night I was at a party when a bully of a kid who happened to be an aspiring MMA coach and local fighter was picking on me, stole my alcohol and threw me out of the party. I heard he got stabbed by someone else he was picking on after I left. The police insist it was me. FML

Today, I got tackled by a bouncer in a club and handed to police for spiking my date's drink. It was an ice cube. I'd asked the barman for some ice cubes, which I put in both my drink and hers, and someone assumed I was slipping her a roofie and reported me. FML

Today, someone was getting beat up by 6 guys. When I tried to help, they had a swing at me as well. The cops came when I was enthusiastically defending myself. They got away, I got arrested. FML

Today, a punk-looking college kid was making fun of my mentally handicapped son. Out of anger, I punched him in the face. I got handcuffed and thrown into a police car. The kid stood there laughing and pointing at me. FML

I'm sure it'll be straightened out when the witnesses see your face and realize their mistake.

this makes no sense you would be the one to file a police report so why would the cops come arrest you? at least think about your story before you make one up

Could be that the OP thought it wasn't a big deal, and didn't press charges, but the witnesses thought the assaulter should be arrested and reported them However, I have no clue how British law works in situations like that =/

@28: Hey douchebag, yes they do. Just because in your little redneck town they don't talk like that doesn't mean no one in the world speaks like that.

14, 20, 28 stop being dumbasses. People talk differently from different parts of the world. Get over it. Oh, and not JUST Brits say whilst btw. I'm pretty sure most English speakers outside of the US and Canada use it.
