Today, I was walking to class. While waiting at the crosswalk, a guy cat-called me from his car. I guess he was pissed that I didn't respond, because he purposely drove through a puddle and completely soaked me and the expensive textbook I was holding. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was walking home through the slush and snow when a car drove by, soaking me with dirty water. Frustrated, I flipped him off. He then turned around and splashed me again. FML
Today, as I was walking home, a car drove through a puddle and splashed me like in a cheesy movie. As if that wasn't annoying enough, the driver had to pull over because she was laughing too hard. FML
Today, while I was walking to class, I was hit by a car. The driver stopped to let me cross in front of her, started moving again, hit me, and then yelled at me, saying it was my fault for walking in front of her. FML
Today, I was walking to work when it was starting to pour down sideways. I was pretty early anyway, so, I decided to duck into a bus shelter and let it pass. Suddenly, a big truck comes and drenched me with the biggest puddle. Soaking from head to toe. FML
Today, my car is being repaired, so I had to catch a bus to work. When the bus came, the driver pulled toward the curb and gunned it through a large puddle of water, then pulled away and continued down the road, leaving me soaking wet. FML
Today, as I was walking to wash my hands after using the restroom, the guy walking away from the sink flicked water from his hands towards the floor. Water splashed all over my beige shorts. I had to walk back into class looking like I'd peed my pants. FML
Today, while waiting at the bus stop, the guy standing near me started peeing on the sidewalk and on my shoes. FML
Today, I accidentally spilled water on my pants, and my crotch got soaked. To make things worse, I was in class at the time, and I had to walk home afterward. On top of that, I had to pass through a mall, and there were so many people staring at me the whole way. 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, I woke up late and rushed to catch the bus. I sprinted heroically, slipped on wet pavement, and skidded directly into a puddle deep enough to baptize me. The driver waited just long enough to make eye contact before closing the doors and leaving. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hey guys, how many times have you cat-called a woman and she came running to you? Hint, stop doing it. It doesn't work.

Are you kidding me? I would've thrown a rock at his window!

Just be thankful that he didn't attack you, or worse, kill you. Unfortunately that is becoming a big trend in ignoring catcalls. Guys need to understand women don't like it, and need to learn a more respectful approach. Bring back corporal punishment!

Are you seriously trying to say that it's becoming a "big trend" to murder women if they don't respond to catcalling? Where?

Where is it becoming a 'big trend'? Raqqah?
justaweirdgirl 14
I want to think you posted this comment with good intentions, but thankful? really? no, any kind of harassment is wrong, and I'm sure you agree with this, so I encourage you to abstent commenting like you did, it harms the victim even more
sammiaaron 16
yeah where do you live that women are getting murdered for not responding to a man? as a woman I'd like to stay away from there
gracehi 33
I wouldn't say it's a "big trend" but women do, on occasion, get assaulted after being catcalled. It's the result of men believing they are entitled to attention from women.

OP, I just want to say the being that did that is not a man, but some sort of inferior subspecies that refuses to die off. I hope your textbook wasn't too damaged. Stay safe
countryb_cth 38
If I'm not mistaken I'm pretty sure that the subspecies are called douche bags. Very unintelligent subspecies that resides in clubs and the gym. There mating calls are cat calls and calling each other bro. Deffinatly not a species anyone wants to be around. They tend to be aggressive

Christ. I hope he gets a ticket or something as karma. What an asshole

I guess he doesn't know any other way to make the ladies wet? FYL

We really, really need to start teaching this type of man how to handle rejection appropriately.

And not to catcall. Because apparently it's not obvious screaming at a person and commenting sexually to a stranger on the street isn't a way to make them feel good or get their positive attention.
tigerisabelle 31
To boys: Please don't make an inappropriate sexual comment when I'm walking alone. All it does is scare me, not turn me on, and it makes you look like a douche. Even if you're a wonderful person. Seriously. Don't do it.

So patronizing. But thanks for assuming our average intelligence level is so low that we needed that pointed out to us.
gracehi 33
Well, to be fair, 31, it's evident that some of you DO need that pointed out to you.
garalis4 2
Key word: "some". Addressing the comment "to boys" sounds really broad. If a guy said something like "To girls: please don't use your period as an excuse to act like a complete bitch." you'd be the first one complaining, and you'd have every right to.

Your comment on does nothing but insult men who don't do that
gracehi 33
Well it's the subject of the FML. It's not like she just made this comment out of nowhere. Obviously if you don't catcall then this comment doesn't apply to you.
Fairyjoshy 13
Ah, the male ego, so fragile that an insult clearly directed at men who do this is taken personally by anyone of the same gender. Signed, a man.
pixierara 28
All you can do is hope it all catches up to him eventually. Too bad you might never see it in person :/ Sometimes I wonder who raised people like that, they obviously need to go back to the drawing board.

Unfortunately, people have experienced boys catcalling with their father cheering them on.

What a dick! I'm sorry. :(
guttedbrit 26
I'll never understand how cat calling and wolf whistling is a compliment!

Well OP needs to define what this guy did, cause many females will call some things catcalling when it's not. Good to know that all you people will take her side without knowing any of the story.
Fairyjoshy 13
You sound like the kinda guy that would intentionally drive into a puddle if a woman refused to acknowledge you.

You, I like you, such a shame everyone's quick to throw shade

Whether he was yelling gross things at her, complimenting het or even asking for directions, she said she IGNORED him. Then he purposefully splashed her (which you can get a fine for btw because it's illegal) because she chose not to respond. Do you throw tantrums to that extreme when anyone ignores you? Doesn't seem like rocket science to say that anything she did (which was nothing) merited that act.
MzZombicidal 36
I don't need to know the definition of a cat-call to know that when a woman isn't interested, you don't ******* splash her with water. What HE needs to learn is to deflate his ******* ego and don't act like a pissbaby if someone isn't interested.
aspecialspecial 21
Well I'd be willing to bet that he didn't purposefully splash her with water but we don't know the entire story so it's impossible to say, from her perspective he's a total dick, but that's assuming her story is an accurate description of what happened.
DoomedGemini 38
Please, tell me more about how much you know about this situation, enough to say details op says are wrong. Things like this happen to, sadly, many women.
