Today, I was at work and a guy walked up holding his phone with the camera facing me. He then looks up at me and says, "I'm not taking a picture of you. I'm just trying to catch a Pokemon." And here I was thinking that I looked nice today. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I thought a cute and well-dressed guy, with a mask matching his shoes, was taking a picture of me. Flattered, I approached him. Turns out, he was playing Pokémon Go and was just trying to catch a “Geodude.” He also blurted out that he was gay. He's into dudes and Geodudes. FML
Today, I was playing Pokémon Go and I was trying to take a picture of my Pokémon when a woman said, "Are you filming me?" really angrily at me. "No, I'm playing Pokémon go," I said, then tried to show her my Pokémon but it disappeared from the screen, and she said, "You ARE filming me." FML
Today, I was trying to take a sneaky picture of a cute guy sitting across from me on a train. My phone’s flash went off. I panicked, dropped my phone, and then had to awkwardly stand up to retrieve it while he just smirked at me, clearly aware of what had just happened. FML

Today, I saw a group of attractive guys at the mall. One of them looked exactly like a friend, so I decided to take a picture. Trying to be discreet, I put my phone up to my ear as if I was making a phone call, and pressed the capture button. The flash went off. FML
Today, I tried to secretly take a photo of a cute guy on the train. I forgot my flash was on. He looked straight at me, smirked, and said, “If you wanted my picture, you could’ve just asked.” I got off three stops early. FML
Today, I was at Sea World and was about to take a picture of the big walrus. I noticed my phone was still set to use the front camera, and I muttered "Oops, selfie mode." A guy next to me turned, looked at me, and said "Not like there's a difference for you." FML
Today, I was walking my dog. A cute guy stopped me and said, "Wow, you are gorgeous!" I said thanks. He looked at me like I was nuts and said, "Not you, your dog." FML
Today, I tried to take a subtle picture of a cute guy reading at a café. My phone flash went off. He looked up, made direct eye contact, and said, “You could’ve just asked.” I packed up my stuff and left immediately. FML
Today, I was at the Apple Store taking random pictures of myself. I took one with a really stupid face. This girl passes by and says, "Wow, that's a cool effect! You look just like an alien!" I wasn't using any effects. It was a regular picture. FML

I'm sure he didn't mean any harm, probably just trying to inform you he's not a creep. I think it'd be pretty weird if he was trying to take a picture of you

...So, you actually want some random ******** to take pictures of you for wanking purposes? Call me crazy, but I would consider Pokemon Go to be a far better than taking my picture.

You'd rather a random stranger came up to you and took your picture?! I would find that creepy af and he's obviously trying to avoid you thinking he's a creeper, as most people would. YDI.

He was not saying you did *not* look nice. He was informing you he was not some questionable individual trying to take a picture of a stranger without their permission. Chances are he was thinking something along the lines of, "Oh, ****, I sure hope this woman doesn't think I'm a stalker or something, so I better explain myself..."

I'm sorry but you're actually disappointed some guy wasn't just wandering over to take a picture of you without your permission?

That's the time you'd wish you had a taser - zap him and tell him you're really Pikachu (that's the only one I know).
