Today, I was at the gym trying to work up the courage to ask a girl out. She was on the treadmill, and I thought it would be cute to wave hello. Instead, she looked horrified and sped up, then slipped and fell off the treadmill. She thought I was mocking her, and now everyone at the gym hates me. FML

Today, I was walking down the street and while stopped at a light, this old man waved at me. Thinking nothing of it, I walked through a parking lot to get to where I was going, where he not only followed me, but mistook me for a prostitute. It was 5pm. FML

Today, I got punched in the face, had hair ripped out of my skull and broke a tooth on the pavement when I fell. Some guy mistook me for someone else. FML

Today, I mistook a little girl for a boy. Unfortunately, I only realised my mistake until after I'd cut her hair. FML

Today, while walking home after a night of partying, I saw a thin, bald person in a suit looking at me from across the street. I got flashbacks to the Slender Man, screamed like a little bitch and ran. Then I realized I'd just humiliated myself in front of some random guy waiting for a bus. FML

Today, I was at the store when I ran into an old friend from high school. He didn't recognize me at first, but when I told him who I was, he instantly shouted "Oh! Yeah! The fat chick from Mr. H's class!" FML

My question is.... How many FMLs are we going to get with people looking like Richard Simmons? This is the 4th or 5th one in the past six months. Either Richard Simmons had a lot of babies when no one was looking or he's being cloned.

I was wondering if OP was male or female...I assumed male. But I guess it doesn't matter what gender. It's shitty either way to be compared to him. Although I do think he IS quite fabulous!

If you are as fit as him at least it's not half bad. However, I don't think there is much of a market for a Richard Simmons look-alike.

The young version or the older one?

Well, do you look like Richard Simmons?

Nope. He looks like Bob Ross. How the girl mistook him for Richard Simmons was a misunderstanding.

Yet your profile says you're from canada? Or am I missing a joke...

just because she lives in Canada, doesn't make her Canadian or even *from* Canada.

Yes it does. For example, living in the US and becoming a citizen makes you American.

Clioo_fml 17

Saturday 10 May 2014 6:16

No, #50, it doesn't. You can live as an immigrant/refugee/resident of Canada/US without being Canadian or American. I live in Canada and I'm not yet a citizen, hence, I'm not Canadian.

To be fair, he did say become a citizen.

Today, and every single time someone I actually feel comfortable with comes into my life, I end up fucking everything up. Whenever they don't reply, I won't for a while too, just to see if they'll check on me but they never do. Am I really that shitty? Is it so bad that I want to feel wanted? FML

Today, my boyfriend wanted to show me a magic trick. He filled a bowl with wine, pushed it on top of the ceiling using a broom stick, and held it up there. He told me to hold it and left. Taking my hands off the broomstick would cause the bowl to fall on my expensive new suit. Eventually, it did. FML
