Today, I helped a guy in a flaming car by busting his window to get him out. I didn't realize until after the crash scene was cleared, that I didn't just have his blood on me, but I also had cut from the window. Round 3 of HIV testing here I come. FML

Today, I saw a bad car wreck. I pulled over and ran to the car to find an unconscious man behind the wheel. Another car pulled up, and a guy got out. I was relieved to have help, until, to my horror, he started trying to hit on me. I was stuck with him until the ambulance arrived. FML

Today, a guy's car broke down in my street, so I helped him push it into my driveway, checked his car out, and gave it a jump start. He thanked me, then as he went to pull out, he instead smashed straight into my car. FML

Today, whilst at a red light in my car, a homeless man with a spray bottle and a dirty rag came over to clean my windows. He started with the driver's window, which was wide open, and whatever was in his spray bottle smelled suspiciously like urine. FML

Today, I was making out with a guy in his car, when we decided we needed a minute of fresh air. We stepped out, only to completely lock ourselves out, with our phones and the keys inside. We had to smash a window. FML

Today, I saw a homeless man on the corner, I thought I would be generous and give him some cash. I rolled down my window and waved my hand for him to come over. As he was walking over, he was struck by another car. FML

Help yourself

Today, I witnessed a car accident. Being an experienced paramedic, I rushed to the scene to see if anyone needed help. As I assessed the people involved, one of them pickpocketed me. FML

Today, while sitting at a red light with my window down, the asshat next to me flicked his still-lit cigarette away. It landed in my car and wedged between me and my seat. It burned a hole in my shirt and my seat, and burned my back and hair. FML

Today, I couldn't get into my car. In an attempt to get in, I broke a window. As I climbed in, the actual owner of the car walked up. Mine was across the street. FML

Today, while I was waiting at a red light, a drunk guy limped in front of my car, unzipped, and started pissing on my windshield. FML

Today, someone tried to break into my car. They tried to do so by jamming a key into my lock, only for the key to break. I guess the key cut their hand, because I had the pleasure of finding the person's blood all over my passenger door. FML

Honestly, good on you for helping OP. I mean it. I personally am hesitant to help people even in situations like those especially because of the things I've read on here. Downvote if you want, but I'm being honest here. Helping people lately just seems to get people in trouble. However, I'm not saying that people shouldn't help if a situation like that occurs.

FML is not real life, it focuses on a very tiny small part of life. It is rare you get in trouble for helping someone.

Didn't realize glass could infect you...

The victim’s blood could have gotten in the cut caused by the glass.

He got cut when he busted the glass. If the person he saved had a blood-borne infection, it's entirely possible OP cold contract it through the cuts on his hands.

Round 3? What have you been doing? Also, no good deed goes unpunished ... ever.

I'm going to be charitable and assume you (OP) work in emergency medicine. Maybe invest in a chain mail shirt?

I get tested after every major medical procedure. I know it’s super rare, but it’s my luck. Op, I’m sure everything will work out for you. Maybe the person you saved will release that part of their medical history so the wait isn’t as stressful.
