Today, I went to pick a penny off of the ground for good luck. Someone kneed me in the butt, I fell face first and broke my glasses. FML

Don't worry I'm really unlucky too... Happens to everyone! :)

A similar thing happened to me. I found $50 on the floor at a nightclub. I picked it up, and as I was getting up someone walked into me, causing me to drop my phone and shattering the screen... Which cost $120

No, no it doesn't happen to everyone. Most people would assess the situation and determine that when there are people walking behind you, you don't stop to pick up a penny.

Well 28, you don't represent 'a lot of people'. Unless you're hella fat, and your weight counts for 'a lot of pwople'

@28: You can actually, mathematically show that the time it takes to pick up a penny is not worth 1 cent.

She's just saying she's unlucky in general. Calm down, people.

I apologize for the improper grammatical structure of my comment. I didn't know I was stating my PhD thesis.

Better to break your glasses instead of your nose or teeth. Silver lining?

How did it make you feel? A penny for your thoughts. I'd recommend picking yourself up, dusting yourself off, and laughing about the whole thing. But that's just my two cents.

A penny for your thoughts, but a dollar for your insights. Oh, a fortune for your disaster.

A penny isn't worth picking up.

I pick up pennies off the floor because the word "God" is on it.

#30 -- actually a penny is worth picking up. I pick up any and all coins I see on the ground, put them in a jar at home and every year, the week before Christmas I cash them in. Last year I got $116 bucks, most of it in pennies. So, it's worth it!
