Today, while sitting in a waiting room, a man assured me, "The safety's on" after he handed his kid his BB gun. A minute later, I practically had a hole in my foot. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to take my son to the emergency room for shooting himself in the ass with a BB gun. FML
Today, I was at my friend's house. We were looking at her dad's guns, and I was explaining gun safety and how you should never put your finger on the trigger. I then shot a hole in the floor of her house. FML
Today, while at school, some jerk shot me in the foot with a BB gun. While in agonizing pain, I yelled, "FUCK" as loud as possible. A teacher walked by, oblivious to the fact I had just been shot with a BB gun and wrote me up for, "Disrespectful language". FML
Today, I went to the gun range for a birthday and got shot in the foot by my mom. FML
Today, my 14 year-old son asked to join my buddies and me at the gun range. The second I finished the safety lecture and handed him a pistol, he started twirling it on his finger (thankfully, it was unloaded). I smacked him in the head and took him home. Now he's moping and sulking like a bitch. FML
Today, my aunt asked to see my new airsoft pistol. Not thinking anything of it, I handed it to her. She shot me in the leg. I was standing next to her. FML
Today, I took my 15-year-old daughter to our local shooting range for her birthday, as she requested. While she was setting up a target in front of me, I jokingly pulled the trigger and shouted, "Think Fast!" not realizing that the safety was off. I shot my daughter in the arm on her birthday. FML
Today, only a few hours after getting certified and buying my first pistol, I dropped it and blew off two of my toes. FML
Today, at a paintball match, my boyfriend shot me between the legs and asked, "Still want kids now?" FML
Today, I saw a gun on my dad's bedside table. I knew it wasn't real, so I picked it up and posed like a badass. Then I shot a hole in their bedroom TV, blew out my eardrums, and my mom flew in and started screaming at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Was it a hospital waiting room? That would be convenient.

I hope that guy pays for what he did to you. Weapons are not meant for children (unless its non-lethal) and he should pay for his lapse of judgement >:(
doodlecloud 27
So non-lethal weapons are actually meant for children? Pretty sure that's not right. Plus isn't a BB gun usually non-lethal anyways? And it clearly wasn't okay in this situation. Just because OP didn't die, doesn't make a BB gun a wholesome family toy.

It's only ok to allow a kid to handle a weapon of any kind after they've consistently demonstrated responsibility, have been extensively drilled in strict safety precautions with heavy consequences for lapses, are placed in a tightly controlled environment with constant supervision and hands-on instruction, and damn well know how to handle it. Note "controlled environments" do not include public areas. My family has handled a metric shit-ton of firearms for as long as anyone can trace and has never unintentionally harmed themselves or another with a gun.

Just pull out a real gun and say it's on safe. His kid won't have a BB gun for long after that.

One of the many reasons why I don't like people: They're stupid. Why the hell would you give a kid a BB gun, especially with people around, ESPECIALLY in a waiting room?

Maybe you don't like some of the people in that waiting room... If someone gets shot, hey he's just a kid he didn't mean tooooooooo. Right?
heinous966 15
No. I don't like someone unless they give reason otherwise.

I don't know what all the other commenters here are talking about. I always take a BB gun with me to the doctor's office. The lines are so long I have to intimidate the other patients who are waiting along with me. "NO, sit down! I'm going first." *waves BB gun wildly*

I have been shot with BB gun more then once and never had a hole in me. that's a powerful BB gun. I blame the parent more then the child.
