Today, someone rang my doorbell. The moment I opened the door, a smell not unlike a cascading torrent of rotting flesh and urine hit my nostrils. I stood there for an eternity as a homeless man leaned on my door and desperately tried to convince me to buy an array of scrap metal from him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I woke up to a homeless man relentlessly shitting on my porch. FML
Today, I had to take a delivery to a known hoarder. I was braced for the sight of the house, but not the naked fat guy and the smell of dead cat when he answered the door. To top it off, they didn't even tip me. FML
Today, I answered the door at my boyfriend's house to an obese woman, who looked and smelled homeless, and rudely tried to barge past me to get inside. I told her to get out or I’d call the police. My boyfriend behind me saw this disgusting woman and said those two awful words: “Hi Mom.” FML
Today, it was an unusually hot day and I saw one of my friends walking down the street carrying a large bag. I stopped and asked if he needed a ride. When he got in, I noticed a horrible stench. He then told me he'd just been dumpster diving. FML
Today, I came home to my front door open and a homeless man taking a 'bath' in my sink. If this wasn't bad enough, he refused to leave because 'finders keepers!' FML
Today, I found the source of the bad smell that has been plaguing me for the past two weeks in my apartment. The police knocked on my door asking if I've seen my neighbor recently. I haven't. The smell has been that of a dead person. It's a smell that even Febreze can't remove. FML
Today, a guy rang my doorbell, yelled "Happy Halloween" and then threw a bunch of leaves that he'd lit on fire at me. FML
Today, I was accosted by an angry homeless man at the recycling center, since I refused to give him my saved up bottles and cans. He insisted that he needed it more and I was "poaching his turf". I needed the recycling to put gas in my car, just to make it to work and hope I could make it back home. FML
Today, whilst at a red light in my car, a homeless man with a spray bottle and a dirty rag came over to clean my windows. He started with the driver's window, which was wide open, and whatever was in his spray bottle smelled suspiciously like urine. FML
Today I had a customer come into my office smelling like feces, urine and body odor. I tried not to get sick to my stomach but failed miserably. I threw up in my trash can in front of him. It now smells like feces, urine, body odor and vomit in here. FML

At least he's trying to make something of himself.

For all you people who're like "Oh my God yeah 'cause YOUR life sucks SOO bad, quit bitching" you know... if it was you who'd opened the door to a homeless guy selling junk to you, I can guarantee a LOT of you would be annoyed too. Sure, the homeless man's life does suck, and I feel sorry for him, but c'mon, you open your door and a bad smelling guy is standing there, you don't know if he's dangerous because he's a complete stranger.. And hey, you don't know if the homeless man was being rude, I mean OP didn't really specify. So yeah, OP maybe shouldn't complain but, if it happened to you, it's likely YOU'D be annoyed too. I do feel bad for the homeless man, and I hope OP wasn't rude to him, and perhaps helped him a little. But still, maybe don't judge them too much.

With an arrogant attitude like yours, if you didn't buy all he had, I hope he pisses on your door step.

Do doors not have peepholes anymore or... ? Seriously, maybe it's because I'm from a big city, but who just OPENS their door??

Peepholes aren't as common in the U.K.
