Today, I asked a guy if he could buy me a pack of cigarettes, since I'm still under 18. He took my money, went into the supermarket, and must have slipped out a side-entrance, because he never came back. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Get back here
Today, a man in a hurry asked me for a light. Not being able to find my lighter amongst the muddle inside my handbag, I handed him my lit cigarette so he could light his. He took it from me, started smoking it and walked off. FML
Birthday blues
Today, my loneliness pushed me to buy a pack of cigarettes just so I had to show my ID to the clerk, hoping he would wish me a happy birthday. I don't even smoke and he didn't say anything. FML
Congratulations, you played yourself
Today, my friend and I wanted to get some alcohol (we're under 21). We went to a liquor store and asked a random guy to go in and buy us some vodka. After giving him $20, he said he had to go turn off his car, then he'd get us the drinks. He got in his car and drove off, with my $20. FML
Generous
Today, a homeless guy asked me for a cigarette. Knowing that I only had a couple left in my pack, I gave it to him. He opened it, took one out and thanked me profusely. A bit surprised, I went on my way. Oh yeah, that's right, the pack contained the money I'd withdrawn from an ATM. FML
Sting
Today, when I went to the gas station to buy beer, some underage punk outside asked me to buy him booze. I told him to get bent, but the dumbass cashier had seen me talking to him, and refused to let me buy alcohol because, "This is obviously a sting." FML
Feeling a little lighter
Today, on my way home from grocery shopping, two young adults around my age came up and asked me for a lighter. Thinking they just needed it to light a cigarette, I handed them my only lighter. They immediately ran away. I got robbed for a 1.99$ lighter. FML
Dad priorities
Today, as he was going out, I asked my father if he stop by the store and buy some tampons for me and toilet paper for the house, because we have been out for the last 5 days. He came home with a 30-pack of beer and cigarettes instead. I just started my time of the month and we have no more money. FML
Today, I gave a man a cigarette. He spent the rest of the day so far following me around, telling me all about his medical history, and chasing after me when I got too far away. I couldn't get rid of him for hours. FML
Plumes
Today, I picked up a carton of cigarettes for my stepfather from the store. He smokes the equivalent of nearly half my paycheck a fortnight. FML
Today, I was picking up my little sister from school and while waiting I decided to have a smoke. I was caught and was told to go to the principal's office. I'm 23. FML

Exactly! You pay them AFTER you get the product! Wait, you guys were talking about not smoking early? Oh.

Reminds me of something hilarious my friend did. Similar situation, but he bought a few bags of sweets, and went back to them saying "Here, this is more your age" before walking off with the change.

He made money and helped a stranger look after their health for at least one day, good day to be that guy!

It's funny just how often "YDI for smoking" is the obvious answer. You also deserve it for asking someone to do something illegal.
Iknoweverything 29
136, I was thinking the same age. Even if smoking wasn't disgusting, I refuse to buy for underage kids. I waited until I was of age to buy age-restricted stuff, and they can wait too! It's MY i.d., why should I let anyone else use it?

A) your a smoker B) your underage smoking C) you gave money to a stranger. Therefore, you are tri-tarded (because retarded doesn't even begin to describe you)

This is why I'm happy a gas station near me sells them to underaged kids. I'd have no other way of getting them. But really people, underaged kids who smoke know it's bad for them. Theres no need to keep saying it.

And maybe let your parents know what your up to OP and u may have a better chance of not having your money stolen! YDI, smoking is a dirty habit. Quit whilst your ahead :)

Cigarette smoke contains rat poison and hydrogen cyanide, which is human poison.
bfsd42 20
This is a true fml. The poor guy probably just needs a smoke. Worse still, the government says he isn't allowed to buy them. This results in him being robbed. If you say he deserves it cos he smokes, then you are a judgmental ass.

So to relieve stress people just need to suck on something? I can think of many things that are more healthy to suck on than a cigarette....

-287, exactly! They know it's bad for them, it's their choice, their life. But if my kid ever started smoking, I'll punish him, but not MAKE him quit.

You're an awful person, OP
Monii_Harlz 11
332 - yeah your right! :) 335 - it doesnt make them an awful person for smoking, it's just a choice they have made... Just like someone who chooses to drink drive has a risk of a crash and die (eventually if you keep doing it)
kwchambers92 10
335 you're a dick, don't call someone an awful person for smoking.
geovanni 9
Other people breathe in the second hand smoke, thus it affects everyone, not just the smoker.
kwchambers92 10
true that. that's why I chew haha
a_nutritionist 10
a personal choice that affects millions of people. way go to with that argument. being a "personal choice" doesnt make it anything other than stupid, nor does it negate the right to comment on said stupidity. being underage only makes it even more pathetic.

For those of you who don't know, #7 is Sean. One of the nicest people you'd meet on here.
Idonebeenhad 17
90 - I feel like a weirdo for reading your profile... but there's a typo at the end. I think you meant to say 'Je parle francais aussie' not 'Jparle'
scrapmetal58 9
208 - No worries haha. 'Je parle' is the proper way so you're correct, but in slang, and spoken French, it's 'Jparle' or even just 'parle'. It's similar to 'I am' and 'I'm'. Cheers!

Sean is the only honest person on here and the only person that I remember seeing on here before most

I don't see how this isn't a YDI.
hiyourcute 0
For real? Aside from the fact that it is ridiculously stupid to trust a stranger with your money, it's also very irresponsible to be smoking, especially if you're under eighteen. Cue the onslaught of potheads and nicotine addicts pissing on my comment because "laws are gay" and "cancer is a lie".

I would do the same thing to you. Quit smoking - I don't want to pay for your drawn-out suicide.
lawls79 14
as a smoker I'd like to know how you pay for my drawn-out suicide?
Person1233 13
Obamacare.
KiddNYC1O 22
I know this flight attendant who smokes about a whole pack in a span of like an hour and a half before she embarks on a 6 hour flight to CA. Quite disgusting. No offense to the smokers. I once smoked as well but never became addicted and completely stopped in 2008. Best decision.
aFatFuck 0
person1233 why the hell does obamacare (a made up, bullshit term) have to do with it. Taxes have always gone to hospitals, it doesn't matter who is president.....
hiyourcute 0
Because Obama wants to socialize medicine dumbfuck, ie put everyone's medical insurance into one big pot and pick sticks to see who gets treatment.
smashgrab 0
I am a smoker, and I have my own insurance. So you can take your objection to 'paying for my suicide' and shove it in the darkest part of your pasty ass. You may not like smoking, but luckily for those of us that do, your opinion is worth less than the squirrel carcass I ran over this morning.
Person1233 13
It's interesting that there are people out there who know they are killing themselves by smoking, but still do it. Do the tobacco companies pay you or sonething?
a_nutritionist 10
@351 first, theres the environmental impact. second, theres secondhand smoke. third, you cant comment on the value of someone elses opinion when youre stupid enough to pay people money to harm you, with zero benefit beyond alleviating the symptoms that only exist because of the previous transaction. its funny how smokers tell everyone else to shut up, as though their right to smoke is greater than our right to complain about it. then again, who expects intelligence from such a group of fuckwits...
smashgrab 0
Enviromental impact? If you're talking about litter from cigarette butts, some of us put them in the trash, not on the ground. Some of us also don't smoke around non-smokers, because it's rude to blow our habit in their faces. I don't even smoke in my own home, I go outside.
a_nutritionist 10
i dont give a shit what you personally do. if you were the only smoker on the planet then maybe this would be a valid point. you arent. you can make whatever stupid personal choices you like, but simply because you dont do particular things that does not negate everyones right to complain about the majority who do. besides which, simply moving outside doesnt mean you arent contributing to second hand smoking.

do you know how much other shit gives you cancer? quite a bit. He still deserves it for smoking underage or at least for not asking a friend instead. but if you're smoking, you obviously don't give a shit what other people think about it. me included. fuckstick.
