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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, because I left my wallet at home, I got arrested for "underage smoking." I'm 32 years old. FML
Today, I got a citation from school. My 10-year-old son was caught smoking cigarettes during recess. FML
Today, my parents found cigarettes in my car. After a long argument lasting over an hour, I convinced them that they weren't mine and that I don't smoke. A few minutes later, I went to work. Guess who decided to visit me during my smoke break. FML
Today I’d been saving a weed cigarette, which is legal where we live, until my parents went on holiday. I had just sparked up when they came back home after dad forgot his passport. The lecture I had to endure went on for so long, I think I’d have preferred an old-fashioned beating. FML
Today, I got caught stealing lollies. I am 25. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a police officer because he thought I was skipping school. I'm 24 and we graduated high school together. FML
Today, I was walking to school and decided to be a good citizen by picking up a beer can on the sidewalk. I then walked on to my school's campus where I then got suspended by my dean for "trying to rebel", grounded by my parents for getting suspended, and an MIP from the school's police guard. FML
Today, my mom found out about my brother smoking. She calmly discussed smoking with him. On the other hand, I got yelled at and made to do chores all day despite having a university exam, just because I knew about it but I didn't tell her, because I knew that I would get the short end of the stick. FML
Today, I was smoking while driving. A cop pulled me over and asked if I knew what I did wrong. I thought he could smell the tobacco, so I decided to just admit it. As it turns out, I was going well over the speed limit. FML
Today, I got suspended from school for smoking in the stairs. I'm grounded for a month without my phone, TV or any type of social connection. All of this would seem like a fair enough punishment if I actually smoked, but instead I just smell like my parent's second-hand smoke. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

inb4 "YDI for smoking" Don't be douchecocks about the OP's lifestyle choice(s), people. That said, I'm pretty sure schools have "NO SMOKING" signs everywhere.

Smoking is your personal choice, but I know that around where I live, no one can smoke (unless on your own personal property) within 500 feet of school grounds. You deserved it for promoting a horrible addiction

LOL, that's a bit contradictory don't you think? #20 "Smoking is your personal choice" - Which it is, nice and fair, there. "You deserved it for promoting a horrible addiction" - Woah there, what happened to the personal choice? This is like how gay-haters are scared that because their child might come in contact with a homosexual that they might somehow "catch it." You said yourself, it's a personal choice, children aren't that easily influenced and will make up their own mind either way. Even then, it's not the worst addiction out there and it's a damn sight better than most things teenagers do. Just because someone does something doesn't necessarily mean they "promote" it, either, that bugs me. Not everyone is a role model, so shouldn't be expected to behave as such.

While I don't promote smoking, I do promote personal choice AS LONG AS the person making the choice is fully informed.

Children aren't easily influenced? Are you kidding me? Granted, we don't know what level of school this is, so we don't know how old the kids are, but in general, most young children will mimic anything they see, especially if they see someone they know/respect, like a parent or older sibling, doing it. And everyone IS a role model, whether you know it or not - whatever you do, someone can see you and be influenced by you.

Most people I know who smoke are well aware of the health risks

most smokers know the risks of smoking. I can't think of a single person who hasn't been lectured on smoking

Bad metaphor: being gay doesn't harm one's health whearas smoking does. I would know; both my grandfathers (both sides) died of lung cancer from smoking.

#23 did you know that monster energy drinks, red bull and some sodas have some of the same chemicals as paint thinner?

And that means what exactly? Unless you state which ones, absolutely nothing.

@CYNNER, energy drinks also tend to have Taurine in them...something which comes from animal bile xD
onlysoph 0
The_Disturbed: Although Taurine is found in the bile in animal's intestines, this isn't the source they use for energy drinks. They make in in a lab somewhere. Otherwise that would be nasty as.

@onlysoph, really? Fair enough :P that's not too bad then, but it's still technically in animal bile xD

Did you know that air contains chemicals of cocaine? Time for you to stop breathing.

Did you know my brain contains chemicals of "i dont give a shit"? Live and let live. Who are you to judge other people for their choices? By you i mean everyone criticizing smokers because they do something unhealthy. Im pretty sure people know the health risks just fine.

If you're aware of the health risks why do you do it? Jesus Christ! It's like jumping down a plane with a parachute that has 1/10 chance of not being deployed normally. IT'S POINTLESS! You guys think you're gangsta or something by smoking? If not, give me one GOOD reason to do it.
