Love: Today, I was walking down the street with my friend, one I walk...

Today, I was walking down the street with my friend, one I walk down every day, and I saw a really cute guy nearby. I felt like I looked better than usual, so I turned my head to offer a smile, and walked right into a pole. The impact was strong enough to send me falling to the floor. FML

Hey there!

Today, I was walking down the street when I saw a friend I hadn't seen in years. I was so excited to catch up with her that I ran across the street without looking and almost got hit by a car. I ended up stumbling out of panic and landed on a pile of trash on the sidewalk. FML

Today, I was walking with my boyfriend down the street and a really hot guy walked past with no shirt on. While distracted by his hardened stomach muscles, I promptly walked into a pole, then became single. FML

Today, I went to the mall and saw a really cute guy. I acted all cool and started doing a sexy hair flip. On the way back up from my hair flip I hit my head on a cellphone stand. FML

Today, I tried to "trip" and fall into this guy I've had a crush on. I missed and fell on my face. He stepped over me and kept walking. FML

Today, I was walking down the street, when I saw a guy in front of me trip and fall forwards, and I quickly jumped forward to steady him. Apparently he thought he was being mugged, and threw his head backwards into my face, leaving my nose a bloody mess. FML

Today, I was riding my bike home from the store. Wanting to impress some passers-by, I tried to do a trick on a sharp turn. I hit a pole with my balls. As I was lying on the ground in agony, a guy pulled over, took a picture, and took off laughing. FML

Today, I was trying to look cute in front of this really nice guy. I sure hope he thinks smacking into a pole, rebounding backwards and knocking over an old man is cute. FML

Show off

Today, I got lunch with a girl I really like. On the way, for some idiotic reason I decided it would be a good idea to show off by jumping up to high-five the red hand on a traffic sign. I ended up slipping and slamming full-force into the pole. I now have a bruise on my face. FML

Today, I saw my crush walking on the other side of the street. She hadn't noticed me, so when she did I nonchalantly looked over and casually waved to look cool. I then walked right into a lamp post. FML

Today, I was riding my long board. A few feet from me an attractive girl was riding one too, in the same direction. We made eye contact right as I slammed into a light pole. She then fell because she was laughing so hard. FML

... so if you walk down this street everyday, why didn't you know about the pole?

If he didn't immediatly offer help while laughing a little, you probably shouldn't bother anyways.

That's made of win. It's one of the biggest compliments you could have paid him at that moment. Also gave him the perfect excuse to approach you. YDI :P

Fact: When you're outside, the "floor" isn't a floor at all! It's actually called the ground, pavement, etc...

How is it possible to slam into a pole, then fall to the ground?!?! Dumbass

Don't you mean 'ground?'

At least he noticed you! :D It's a hilarious start to a beautiful relationship. Why are so many people pointing out the difference between 'floor' and 'ground'? If your inside on the floor, and you fall, you can say " I fell on the floor." or "I hit the ground." But, if you're outside on the ground and you fall, you can't say, "I fell on the ground."?!?!? Doesn't that seem a little strange? Then again, English is a very strange language. Did I just confuse everybody further?
