Today, I was so excited to play the video game I just bought, I decided to read the manual in the game. I went over the seizure warning and thought to myself, who the hell gets a seizure from playing a video game? Apparently I do. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was introduced to Minecraft. I haven't blinked in 5 hours. FML
Today, my boss's obese bully of a grandson had a seizure. Being the only physician around, I had to rush in to tend to him. Except it wasn't a seizure as such. My daughter had found my taser and used it on him. FML
Today, I was trying to explain to my mom that I've been having panic attacks. I ended up having a panic attack from talking about having a panic attack. FML
Today, I was watching a movie on TV. One of the characters has the same name as my dog, and when his name was called, my dog got so excited that he jumped face-first into my TV. FML
Today, out of curiosity, I took an online test to see if I have ADHD. Halfway through, I got so distracted and bored that I gave up. I guess I know the answer then… FML
Today, I accidentally set my hair on fire while lighting a cigarette. I panicked and put it out by slapping myself in the face. FML
Today, at work, I jumped under my desk in fear of a nuclear missile attack when the firestation next us let out its new awareness siren. I think I'm going insane. FML
Today, as I waited to fly home, a very attractive woman smiled and gestured towards the seat next to me. However, a hyperactive child and his mother barged past into said empty seats. The woman really hit it off with the guy behind, while I was stuck listening to a kid scream at Angry Birds. FML
Today, I was teasing my cat with a piece of string when suddenly my phone rang. I answered it with one hand and put the string down with the other onto my lap. The beast seized the opportunity to spring, claws out, onto my privates. FML
Today, I slammed the car door on my head while I was getting in the car. If that wasn't bad enough, my boyfriend is convinced I now have a concussion and insists on waking me up every hour to make sure I'm still alive. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

When will people remember this? Just because ALL THE FMLs AUTOMATICALLY start with "Today", it doesn't mean that they happened the same day! Anyway, that sucks a lot, especially if you're a big gamer - I'd be bummed if it were me. I'm curious about what game it was now, though.

Sucks to be you man. You just wasted money on a game you won't even be able to play.

22, perhaps the reason you feel like you are on the doctor's show is because you have no clue what you are talking about, but are pretending that you do. The doctors show is the program that told a group of school children the only way one could ever get diabetes was by eating too much sugar after all. First, Corpus callosotomies, one of the most common epilepsy surgeries, are performed on people whose seizure focus is never determined. Second, you completely contradicted yourself by first saying that someone with a healthy brain cannot have a seizure, and then saying that someone who was stressed (ie by lack of sleep or oxygen) can have a seizure from this game. Third, Most games with seizure warnings are well below the seizure threshold to prevent lawsuits, because someone with severe, undiagnosed partial seizures can have a generalized seizure from something flashing as much as the lights turning out in a room - thats why people with epilepsy find these warnings useless and there is a movement to actually have standards in place for the warnings to be used Fourth, how people feel after a seizure VARIES greatly from person to person. Sally may feel woozy, Joe on the other hand, may dance around in the street unaware of what he's doing, Ben may be to exhausted to move, and Tom may be suicidal, even though they've all had the exact same kind of seizure in the exact same area of their brain
