Today, after lifting a 20 pound box of oranges for a woman at work, she turned around to say, "Your acne needs help." I still had to tell her to have a good day. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a lady come up to me in a store just to tell me how bad my acne was and what remedies I should use. I got so embarrassed, all I could say was, "OK" and, "Thank you" until she left me alone. FML
Today, I got in line at the grocery store. The woman in front of me looked right at me, turned to her friend, and said "That reminds me, I forgot to get acne cream." FML
Today, a woman at the crowded mall stopped me and told me loudly that if I bought her product it would get rid of my acne. FML
Today, I was helping my elderly neighbor carry her groceries into her kitchen. When I finished, she sighed and said, "You're such a sweet girl. It's just a shame about your face." FML
Today, I was feeling pretty down due to a recent back injury, so I thought I’d do something nice to help lift my spirits. I bought some cookies for my coworkers, who ended up not wanting any, and one of them decided to ask what was wrong with my face. Oh, right, my acne rosacea is flaring too. FML
Today, at work, I cashed out a sweet old lady. As I handed her the bag, she looked at me kindly and said, "Don’t worry sweetie. It'll get better," to which I responded, "What will get better?" She smiled at me and said, "Your face." FML
Today, at work as an optician, I gave a little girl a new pair of glasses and asked her if she could see better with them. She replied, "Oh, yeah, you've got two big zits on your nose!" FML
Today, when I arrived at work, I was greeted by my gorgeous coworker telling me my red shirt looked awesome on me. Before I could compliment her, she added that the color was fitting perfectly with my acne. I heard a couple of giggles around me. FML
Today, I was talking with some friends and the girl I like. During a lull in the conversation, she looked at me and said, "Ugh, I really wanna pop your zits." FML
Today, at my job in a chemists, I had a customer ask me which acne cream I would recommend. I picked up the brand I use and told her that I've been using it for a year now. After pausing to stare at my face for a second, she thanked me and picked up the competing brand instead. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Wow, I would've thrown those oranges at her ignorant face. At least I like to think that's what I would've done. What a bitch.

Maybe they should wash their faces for once.

Don't worry. Your acne will go away, but she'll always be an asshole.

I used Tetralysal which, yes is an antibiotic and takes ages to work, but it doesn't make the acne any worse than you start off with. I've been on it for about 16 months and my acne is a lot better than it was back then. it's just 1 capsule a day in the morning.

I have an acne product that helped me a lot . it's called zap-it! and it's really effective an cheaper that proactiv <--which has a lot of chemicals btw. just because it's on tv doesn't mean it's the best product in the world...

I would have picked up an orange, chunked it at her face, said "Your face needs help." & walked out. People need to watch what they say.

You didn't HAVE to tell her to have a nice day unless a manager was watching. I said that about 50% of the time when I worked retail and no one ever fired me. I quit cause I've had enough lol.

Proactiv didn't work for me either. But try going to acne.org. They offer a process that works with a variety of products, or their own. I use their products, which are way less expensive than Proactiv.

Accutane works but sometimes your acne comes back. Mine came back 6 months after treatment. Luckily, it made my skin more responsive to acne medication. Now at 24 I still have acne but at least I can somewhat manage it and hide it easier.
