Today, I was taking the bus home from work. As I was getting off an old man whistled at me, I told him to go to hell and got off the bus. When the bus drove away the old man stood in the back of the bus, holding up the wallet I left that he was trying to give to me. FML

Today, I gave a homeless man my last bit of spare change so he could get on the bus. Just as I was about to get on too, I realized I'd lost my bus card. I had to get off the bus and watch as the man waved at me through the window. FML

Today, while sitting in a handicapped seat on the bus, an old man angrily approached me and chewed me out in front of everyone for not leaving the seat empty for "those who actually need it." Then he stormed off the bus, stepping heavily on my broken foot. FML

Today, I was sitting on the bus to the gym. I saw that an old woman needed help to get off the bus, so I got up, and helped her off. When I had finally got her down the stairs the bus closed the doors and drove away. I was in the middle of nowhere and the bus drove away with all my things. FML

Today, I saw a cute guy on the bus. I smiled at him and he smiled back. After a couple of stops, he got off the bus. He bumped into me, turned around, apologized, and winked. I stood there feeling good about myself. Then I realized he stole my wallet. FML

Today, I said thanks to a man who got up for me in the bus. He angrily said "no, not you!". The old lady who sat down is now staring at me. FML

Today, I missed my bus. I had to ride my bike 2 miles. Once I left, some jerk nearly hit me. I flipped him off and shouted obsceneties. It was my dad, offering me a ride. He left. FML

Nice try

Today, I was on the bus and a woman got on with her 3 young children. I offered her my seat so they could all sit together. When I went to get off the bus, I realized I'd left my bag underneath my old seat. When I tried to get it back the woman hit me and yelled at me for trying to steal her purse. FML

Trash

Today, I rode the public bus. When I got off, I put my hood up only to discover that the old man who sat behind me had used my hood as a trashcan for his gum and used Kleenex. I can't get the gum out of my hair. FML

i agree with #26 completely. he didnt have to whistle. could have SAID something. women get whistled at alot and it gets irritating, so its easy to misjudge them

@26: His whistling wasn't a come-on, it was a way to get her attention. As a guy who has her wallet, he doesn't have to delve into her psychology and what it's like being a woman living in a man's world. It's up to her to respond in a sane manner.

what's with this whole karma thing? if an old man whistled at me, i'm sure the first thing i'd do is get the hell off the bus not turn around to see what the eff he wants! i can't count the numerous times i've been creepily stared/whstled at on public transit and cause of that i call it a smart move!

Don't flatter yourself; you probably aren't very attractive anyway. :] Also catcalls don't sound anything like ordinary whistles. Fail. ;D

If a chick or dude whistled at me I would be flattered. Hell, a 10-year-old told me that my hair was a pretty (yes pretty) color and I felt better about myself. OP: fail for not being able to tell the difference. A sexual one is usually 2 whistles with the first being a higher pitch. An attention whistle is one loud, high-pitch whistle. Stuck up women in the topic: Get over it. It's a compliment to be whistled at. The OP deserved this one for assuming that an old man whistled at her because he was a pervert. That's demeaning to men (turning the tables on ya'!) and shows that she is arrogant by thinking that she is attractive enough to be whistled at sexually.
