Today, I had a note to skip P.E. that my grandpa had written because my mom was busy. His handwriting is terrible, so they didn't believe that he'd written it. I'd twisted my ankle and I got to run another mile for "lying". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I ran the mile in gym class. I was the second to last person to finish, and I was left panting and feeling faint. When the teacher found out I hadn't come in dead last, he accused me of skipping a lap and is now making me rerun the entire thing. FML
Today, I had a swollen knee, and was slowly limping to the toilet. All of a sudden, my mom ran past me, beating me to it. As she closed the door, she said, "AT LEAST I CAN RUN!" FML
Today, I was running to my car, slipped, and slammed my head on the car door. I started driving to the hospital because it was bleeding profusely and I was dizzy, I called my mom to tell her what had happened. She said I was grounded for "goofing off" and that she was "sick of my shit". FML
Today, I decided to be healthy and go for a run. I broke my ankle. FML
Today, a fifth grader gave me a note from his "father" excusing him from PE. It was riddled with spelling errors and shockingly poor grammar, so I rejected it as a blatant fake. Several hours later, I was informed by his very angry father that it wasn't actually fake. FML
Today, I had to run a timed mile. I'm terrible at running. During the run, I thought I was doing a good job. That is, until the teacher told me to stop because I was three laps behind everyone else. FML
Today, I broke my leg. My mom told me I still have to go to tennis class tomorrow because the course isn't refundable. FML
Today, my legs were really sore from working out yesterday, so it hurt going down the stairs at work. To avoid the pain, l ignored how stupid I looked and limped down the staircase. When I finally got to the bottom, I hopped off the last step. And twisted my ankle. FML
Today, I texted my mom if she could pick me up from the hospital. She replied, "No fatty, walk home." I have a broken foot. FML
Today, I slipped and fell down the stairs, landing hard on my knee. Through my screams of agony, my mom accused me of exaggerating the pain, and said I was just being an attention seeker, before finally taking me to hospital. I was told my leg was broken. She refused to apologize. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Apparently only kids in school are allowed to have poor handwriting these days...shoulda said your grandpa was a doctor, that'd clear it right up

Oww. If those staff suspected anything, couldn't they have checked the ankle? Our staff could have.

That sucks but if you were still able to do P.E. and even run an extra mil it doesn't sound like it could have been that bad. If it was you should have just refused and made them call your house.

It would have been much better for you to have flat out refused. You would have been sent to the office for defiance, but their tune would have changed once they realized they attempted to injure you further.

I find it hard to feel sorry for you. It's just highschool.. Just walk out of the class and if the teacher tries to punish you, tell them to make a phone call home. It's not that hard, stand up for yourself.

Sorry, but if you ran the mile, YDI. You should've limped right to the sideline and stayed there. I take that back if you're in military school.

When I twisted my ankle my dad bullied me and called me a drama queen and told me to "get yo own damn asprin." As soon as I stood up there was a loud crack. Turns out my ankle is broken and I have torn ligaments and I'm going to need physical therapy three days a week. Trust me, you should NEVER let someone bully you like that. You could end up hurt worse.

You have free will. They can't actually MAKE you do anything.

OP you shouldn't let people tell you what to do if its not right. Even if he is an authority figure!! What's the worst that could have happened, they call your mom? She could have cleared it up. Think for yourself and life will be better for you, not always but you won't be running a on a twisted ankle.
