Today, we decided to go to an aquarium for a little family get-away. At the end was a shark viewing deck, and I leaned over the rails to get a better look. How did I find out that my glasses needed to be adjusted? They fell off and sunk right to the bottom of the shark-infested waters. FML

Today, after buying a new pair of prescription glasses, I went to the beach. The ocean now has a new pair of glasses. FML
Today, against my wishes, my family and I went swimming with sharks. While in the shark cage, a shark got within a few feet of us. My cowardly bowels objected and caused me to shit myself. FML
Today, I was kayaking with my friend. We figured it'd be awesome if I jumped from my kayak straight into his. Sounded good in theory. One flipped kayak, a pair of lost glasses, and a humiliating swim back to shore later, I'm starting to think it wasn't the best idea. FML
Today, I couldn't find my reading glasses, thinking perhaps i'd dropped them outside, I stepped off my deck bare foot, straight into a steaming dog turd. Only to see my glasses chewed up a few feet away. It went between my toes. FML
Today, I went tanning on the beach. I found a nice spot close to shore and laid there with my towel and sunglasses. A few hours later, I awoke to waves splashing at me. My towel was soaked and my sunglasses must have washed off the shore. Damn high tide. FML
Today, I was using the restroom at work when my glasses slipped off my face and landed right in the toilet. FML
Today, I opened my new contact lenses for the first time in a month and accidentally dropped one, only to watch it disappear helplessly down the drain. Give a name to the situation. FML
Today, while at the beach, as a joke, I told my girlfriend that I was a shark. She then poked my eyes and punched me in the nose. When I started to get mad, she just shrugged and asked, "What? You're the one that wanted to be a shark. Don't you watch Shark Week?" FML
Today, I went to a theme park with my friends. I was excited to ride the rollercoasters, but just as we were about to get on the biggest one, I realized I'd had left my glasses in the car. I can't see shit without them, but I decided to go on the ride anyway. I spent the entire time screaming in terror while my friends laughed, while I couldn't see a thing. FML
Today, I got into the shower with my glasses on by mistake. I spent 5 minutes convinced that the fog in my vision was me going blind. FML

Did you try to get it back? If not at least the sharks will see a little more clearly now.

I would advise leaving them there.

Didn't anyone ever teach you not to lean over guard rails? Kind of why they're there. FYL cause I know how it sucks to lose glasses and stuff, but you also kind of deserve it for being a bit of an idiot...

something to do with sharks, lots of teeth, most people being scared of sharks, and probably rules around jumping in the water

I bet they are still there. Cause glass tastes terrible. Don't ask how I know.

since you were wearing them all of the time, I'm inferring that you were near sighted, and thus they were perception glasses. so basically, you dropped 300+ dollars into a shark tank. well done.

I know that feeling OP, I am terrified of roller coasters and letting go of the handle while on it. Long story short they flew off. I had completely forgotten I had them even on my face. I hope you have some sort of coverage because they are really expensive!
