Today, some asshat chewed me out over a 10 cent late fine he was charged on his library card. When I tried to explain the fine to him, he started mimicking me. Finally, as he chucked a dime at my head before storming out, I saw the glint of a Rolex watch from beneath his power suit. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was at the library. I went near the computer section when I saw this man cursing and pounding his fists on a computer. He left. I thought I'd check it out. As I sat down, a librarian came over with the security guard and pointed at me. I'm now being fined for destroying public property. FML
Today, I tried to return a library book sneakily to avoid the overdue fine. I slid it on the counter but the scanner screamed, lights flashed, and the librarian announced my humiliatingly overdue name like a game show host. FML
Today, I rushed from work so I could get to the library to return a book that was due. The library closes at 7:00 p.m. I arrived at 6:56, huffing and puffing. The lady saw me, slammed the door in my face, and locked it. I now have to pay a late fee for 4 minutes. FML
Today, I went to a library to return a book that I've had for years. After a heated discussion with the librarian, not only did she charge me over a hundred dollars for the book, she also called the cops to escort me out. FML
Today, while at an important meeting at work, I got to watch helplessly as a police officer gave me a parking meter ticket. Added to that my boss chewed me out for "never paying attention and staring out the window during meetings". FML
Today, I told a customer that we don't do refunds. He responded by throwing his wallet at my face and accusing me of stealing it. FML
Today, I was at work at a coffee shop. We charge 50 cents every 15 minutes of use of our computers. An old man tried sneaking out without paying after being at a computer. As I was telling him to pay for his time, he threw a bagel at me and ran to his car. FML
Today, I bought some shoes, but pissed off the lady working at the store by returning them 5 minutes later. She yelled at me and ripped my receipt in half, everyone in the store watched as she threw a handful of pennies at my face. FML
Today, at the bank, some poor bastard got brutally dumped in front of everyone, prompting some total spastic behind me to cough and mockingly say "Loser!" The guy thought I'd said it, and started shoving me around and threatening to tear me a new asshole. FML
Today, trying to do a good deed, I gave a homeless guy a $10 bill. As I walked away, he yelled after me, "You fucking bitch!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Oh God, *TIME! Why can't I spell at 7am... Apologies.

No no, it was spelled perfectly fine at first, nothing wrong with "one dime at a tine"...

I wish I got a dime every tine I laughed at this comment.

Pretty impressive that OP realized the watch was a Rolex just from a "glint". I bet the suit looked like it was hand-tailored by Gianni Versace, too? He was a dick, but don't be judgmental.

I agree, it made perfect cents to me, too.

74, judgemental? really? to know that it was a Rolex, OP probably saw the whole thing, she was just describing a glint from it. stop being a douche.

some people get rich and forget who there are, some people get rich and reveal who they are some people born rich never know who they are

Maybe it was a fake Rolex?
HWICUNow 10
or... A "Faux-Lex" can I let myself out ..?
angelitared 27
What an asshat!!
iAlissa 34
Yes, OP already made it clear he was an asshat.

Every cent counts, I guess.

I wonder what book it was... How to be Stingy for Dummies?

I hate people. A lot.
asnakelovinbabe 16
It's probably fake.
Dracoboxer357 36
Likely so is he. Sounds like some petty little insecure man, looking to feel important over some irrelevant, triviality by making a big show in public. Translation: A loser by choice. :p

Do you forget what the rules said?

That was probably a Folex, not a Rolex. And that 10 cents was probably all it cost to make.
Enslaved 38
You can tell a real Rolex vs a fake one by the way the second hand sweeps around the face, instead of that "tick-tick" motion. :P
RedPillSucks 33
Yeah, but OP probably didn't have enough observation time to check that out.
OscarDV 8
Its also a possibility that it was a gift.
raininginseattle 9
Not really 26. With cheap movements out there, even the fakes have sweeping second hands.
asnakelovinbabe 16
WHAT THE HELL DOC. I comment above this saying the watch is probably fake and people hate it. You say the same and people love it. TEACH ME YOUR WAYS.
thatonename 7
81) no offense to doc, but it's just proof most of the fml community are sheep. His comments will very rarely, if ever, be down voted just because of who he is. Don't get me wrong, most of his comments are funny, but we all know the second part is also partially true...
michael666 7
he had more details, you only said "its probably fake" while the good ol' doc here explained in a more detailed manner, its all in the presentation.
Chanti_fml 26
That's how he saved up to buy that Rolex!
jrock9093 18
What a di^* you just smile and know that he never grew up and lives off mommys nipple still have a better day op

Dine, diss, dice, died, dive? So many possibilities.
Sinistra_Blue 12
Dime! I think he was trying to say dime.
purebliss_fml 19
Sounds like he has anger issues... If you get angry in a library you must be a special kind of pathetic.
