Today, my one-year-old son threw up on the man sitting next to us on a plane. I felt bad and apologized profusely. When I tried to give him money for dry cleaning, he slapped me. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, a toddler threw up on my backpack mid-flight. FML
Today, while riding the bus to a really important job interview the child sitting next to me threw up in my lap. His mother then told him to wipe his mouth. He used my sleeve. FML
Today, I was on an airplane back from California. I decided to check out my new $1500 MacBook that I bought the day before. My son decided to projectile vomit all over me, my new computer, and my bag. None of it got on him. FML
Today, while I was flying on American Airlines back from visiting family, a newborn puked its breakfast all over my HP mini, knocked my orange juice into my lap, then coughed up another layer on top of it all. I couldn't change my pants because of we were about to experience turbulence. FML
Today, on my airplane ride home, the woman next to me wasn't feeling too well. She pulled out the air sickness bag to throw up into and missed. Her vomit splattered all over the seat in front of her and all over me. We were both covered in puke. And that was only my first of two flights. FML
Today, I took my toddler on a flight alone for the first time. I packed snacks, toys, everything. Thirty minutes after takeoff, he threw his juice straight onto my lap, then screamed for the exact snack I'd forgotten. The passenger next to me offered tissues and said, “First time?” I nodded, covered in sticky apple juice, for the next two hours. FML
Today, my 3 year-old son projectile vomited on me. I was covered head to toe in blue Gatorade vomit. FML
Today, I accused my son of faking being sick. He then blew chunks all over me. FML
Today, at the mall, my 4-year-old son threw up on a man's shoes. When he approached me, I immediately machine-gun mouthed him in public. The man apparently is a doctor and concernedly said that my son may have a rare gastric disease based on the puke. I got him checked, and he's right. FML
Today, I was on an airplane and had to go to the bathroom. The guy next to me was asleep and blocking the aisle. I tapped him on the shoulder, and he responded by punching me in the stomach. FML

For those who says kids need to be banned from flights, you guys obviously never take care of one yourself or live away from family and friends. What if the parents need to attend funeral? Family members on their death bed? Sure, leave the kids alone by themselves while the parents fly on the plane!

Can't take care of a kid?....don't have one...see simple. Breeders don't get that.

I agree that slapping you was harsh but you shouldn't have offered him money for dry clean. FYL anyways.

I would have slapped him back, then call a flight attendant. Sorry OP definitely needs a follow up.

Yeah, I would have called the attendant over and made sure the police were waiting at the gate..

You deserved it for having kids.

First of all Justin- shut your mouth only open it when you something intelligent to say. Secondly OP what he did is assault I hope that you had him arrested. People like that are just a waste of space like Justin. Maybe I'm guessing you don't feel as bad now right ?

I hate it when I see people vote situations like this YDI. No one deserves that.

I would gladly pay a twenty dollar premium to not be on a plane with old people or babies. I bet if enough people were willing, the airlines would do it for us. :D

While no one deserves to be slapped by a stranger, ever, I do believe that you should have had a better handle on your child. If they were sick or have a nervous tummy during unfamiliar situations you should have been prepared. You knew you'd be in close quarters and trapped on a plane, and should have planned accordingly. I can deal with crying babies, but if one got bodily fluids on me - I'd be pretty pissed.

It's a one year old child. How was the mother supposed to know her baby was going to be sick? You're really something else.
