Today, I saw myself on the news. I was one of the random passers by they had filmed for their story on the "Fat Epidemic." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I turned on the TV just in time to see my picture on the news. I have no idea what they said about me. FML
Today, I discovered I am the "before picture" in an internet weight loss advert. FML
Today, while watching the morning news, I unexpectedly saw myself! Too bad I was looking puffy at a pizza buffet, loading up my plate. I have tendinitis in my arm and wrist, and the NSAIDs hadn’t kicked in yet. At least I dressed up that day, though. FML
Today, I discovered that a company has been using a photo of me for one of those "she lost 50 pounds" online ads. I'm the "before" photo. FML
Today, there was a story called "Looking Good" about fashion in school that ran in the local newspaper. On the front page of that section it featured a picture of my class. I was photoshopped out. FML
Today, one of our local news stations decided it was the perfect day to film random people at the beach. I saw myself on TV, holding hands with my side chick. I hope my girlfriend doesn’t watch the news. FML
Today, I found a picture of myself on the "People of Walmart" site. FML
Today, my friend found a picture of herself on a website filled with pictures of thin people. I was in the picture, also. I was crossed-out with the word, "EWW" written next to me. FML
Today, I was passing a building and saw a fat, ugly person inside. I started to laugh and noticed it was my reflection. FML
Today, I was walking home from the gym. I was thinking about how proud of myself I was for losing 34 pounds when someone yelled from a car window, "Look at that fat lump!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I guess that's a wake up call? but that's really sad, no one deserves that, sorry OP. :(

maybe if they stopped judging people and looked for solutions to fix it such as eliminating all fast food chains we could fix this.

If you feel like it, you can sue them for publishing videos of you without your consent :P

not really, thats a myth when you're in public, you don't expect privacy and thus can't sue, or maybe you can but you won't get much

Usually the people who insult fat people are insulted by fat people. Problem?

Wow 17, that's not even a good comeback..

yea I'm pretty sure they need to ask your permission if they show your face
EagorLuvsBigFoot 8
117 they do it's illegal to have your face shown on TV without the persons permission. Why do u think they blur out some criminals faces on cop shows? Because they didn't want to be on TV

206, hey Josh ! you do understand that obesity sometimes isn't because of the person morally? sometimes its out of a persons control. remember, karmas a bitch - only if you are ;)

That's probably a sign that it's time to lose some weight.

exactly! I don't feel sorry for OP. You are the only one who can make yourself fat, so YDI!

haha, did they do a close up of your fat ass???

I agree 61... A lot of people can't bear to do the work to lose weight because they're afraid to have people look at them...

Are you fat? Most fat girls are unattractive.

is that why you don't go!! HAHA

sorry, I find it very hard to understand how by me posting comments of minor insult (and yes, it was a very minor insult) is preventing morbidly obese citizens from making simple lifestyle changes. in my opinion this is an excuse made by the lazy because "its the easy way out." Stop being so pathetic. if it's needed, seek nutritionalists advice and enjoy a happy HEALTHY long life.

that's mean and NOT funny!

108.i agree.maybe people should stop being so sensitive and just lose weight if they want to.its hard and people are cruel.thats life.everybody has been picked on for something so they should just get over it and work on that weight

and ok, I was a little harsh in my original comment. I will take both "fat" and "ass" and replace them with more child friendly words such as "wobbly" and "bottom"

for 108 didn't want to make it seem like I supported the comment I posted on..

1. I think she's very pretty and 2. at least she has the balls to post a picture of herself unlike you. really easy to insult someone when you're hidden behind a screen and keyboard.

haha I've been wondering what that means for months

People have explained this at one point or another. If you want the fun version, it's "Optimus Prime", the boring version is "Original Poster".

27, your an idiot it means original poster. "online person" wtf?
iAmScrubs 19
Yeah, it's "original poster". I had to search it up on Urban Dictionary when I first came to FML.

133- Although I understand how you could think that, you should have looked it up online before telling someone else the meaning. If that person you told tells another person that OP means online person, and that person tells another person, and that person tells another person, and etc., a lot of people would be misinformed.

I agree with 133, ignorance is like a virus in this case... please stop spreading it.
