Today, I asked a guy if he could buy me a pack of cigarettes, since I'm still under 18. He took my money, went into the supermarket, and must have slipped out a side-entrance, because he never came back. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a man in a hurry asked me for a light. Not being able to find my lighter amongst the muddle inside my handbag, I handed him my lit cigarette so he could light his. He took it from me, started smoking it and walked off. FML
Today, my loneliness pushed me to buy a pack of cigarettes just so I had to show my ID to the clerk, hoping he would wish me a happy birthday. I don't even smoke and he didn't say anything. FML
Today, my friend and I wanted to get some alcohol (we're under 21). We went to a liquor store and asked a random guy to go in and buy us some vodka. After giving him $20, he said he had to go turn off his car, then he'd get us the drinks. He got in his car and drove off, with my $20. FML
Today, a homeless guy asked me for a cigarette. Knowing that I only had a couple left in my pack, I gave it to him. He opened it, took one out and thanked me profusely. A bit surprised, I went on my way. Oh yeah, that's right, the pack contained the money I'd withdrawn from an ATM. FML
Today, when I went to the gas station to buy beer, some underage punk outside asked me to buy him booze. I told him to get bent, but the dumbass cashier had seen me talking to him, and refused to let me buy alcohol because, "This is obviously a sting." FML
Today, on my way home from grocery shopping, two young adults around my age came up and asked me for a lighter. Thinking they just needed it to light a cigarette, I handed them my only lighter. They immediately ran away. I got robbed for a 1.99$ lighter. FML
Today, as he was going out, I asked my father if he stop by the store and buy some tampons for me and toilet paper for the house, because we have been out for the last 5 days. He came home with a 30-pack of beer and cigarettes instead. I just started my time of the month and we have no more money. FML
Today, I gave a man a cigarette. He spent the rest of the day so far following me around, telling me all about his medical history, and chasing after me when I got too far away. I couldn't get rid of him for hours. FML
Today, I picked up a carton of cigarettes for my stepfather from the store. He smokes the equivalent of nearly half my paycheck a fortnight. FML
Today, I was picking up my little sister from school and while waiting I decided to have a smoke. I was caught and was told to go to the principal's office. I'm 23. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Should've made him leave something so he couldn't do that

Why would he when he is doing the op a favor?
unluckiestperson_fml 14
OP should've considered the possibility that the guy could easily walk away, he should've asked the guy to make sure. If he refused, move onto another person.

op should just suck on an exhaust pipe if she is stupid enough to smoke. especially underage.

of course youll find a stranger willing to hand over something personal just so they can use your money to buy you something in the hope that when they return youll still be there. i suppose this works out well, cos in your scenario youd never ever get taken advantage of OR get the cigarettes. its win-win.

Lesson learned I hope! If you aren't old enough to buy them, you're not old enough to smoke them! Besides, don't get started; you're only paying for a slow death, yellow teeth and being stinky, wrinkly and old before your time! Consider yourself blessed that he snagged your money!

Actually, technically in Canada you can be in possession of and smoking cigarettes at age 16 however it's illegal to buy them until you're 19 (or 18 in some provinces). Not sure why the law added that little loop hole but either way...
duckie227 22
he's not in Canada. he's in Florida. the law is its against the law for minors to smoke

20-at least someone has manners around here :) People gotta stop being so harsh... Smoking is a dirty habit but doesn't mean people should be so hard on him about it! It's his own personal choice and he will pay for it later on in life ! There is consequences that come with many things and heaps of things give you cancer! Like drinking out of a plastic bottle apparently

Tobacco is nasty and bad for you, smoke marijuana its not bad for you and better
ThorneCrossed 9
While it doesn't have as many health risks as tobacco, marijuana is still very unhealthy.
scrapmetal58 9
Look up how much tar just one joint has compared to a cigarette and you'll see that marijuana isn't healthy either.
whiterabbit420 4
Marijuana isn't healthy if smoked, but vaporized or eaten then there is little to no cancer risk.
joshosh420 2
Marijuana has been around just as long as tabacco, we would see long term affects of it like we did tabacco if it was harmful to people. There is no proof whatsoever marijuana is harmful to you, which cannot be said about tabacco.

23- Weed has 3 times more tar than tobacco and 50% more carcinogens (cancer-causing chemicals) than tobacco. Yeah, smoking weed is soooo much better. *sarcasm*

Little to no risk still means you have the slightest chance of getting cancer. You may not think it could happen to you but you never know, things happen.

Being alive gives you a chance of cancer.. Artificial sweeteners, caffeine, alcohol, the sun and even being old give you a risk of cancer! Everything gives you cancer these days! The only drugs I put into my body are my prescription meds and a tiny amount of caffeine, even they increase my risk of cancer! Inhaling smoke of any kind is bad for you and cancer is not the only risk. At the end of the day what you do to yourself is up to you but nothing is safe any more...

Smoking Mary Jane makes ya fat it is a relaxer that stimulates hunger. Which one do you want to die with op? Obesity, or cancer?
CallMeMcFeelii 14
If you smoke a different strain of weed it's a more stimulated high. You must be smoking that shawg from Mexico. Not that Alaskan thunderfuck. Haha.
