LtlCheeseburger · 31 May 2012, 18:15 ·Derby, United Kingdom Help! Today, I was shopping, and tried on a skirt that was a size smaller than usual, thinking that I would fit in. Not only did it not fit, neither I nor the sales assistant could get it off me, because the zip got stuck. She had to cut me out of it.

Anonymous · 25 August 2025, 15:00 ·Australia It's a trap! Today, I tried on a tight sweater at the mall. It got stuck halfway over my head, and I couldn’t get it off. I had to shuffle out of the changing room, arms trapped in the air, and ask the clerk for help while blinded by the fabric. FML I agree, your life sucks 200 You deserved it 340 0 comment Share
Pudgy · 11 April 2022, 10:01 Tight Today, I tried on a dress for prom. It took a while to zip, but I insisted it'd fit. I asked for help. When the lady finally managed to zip all the way, the dress completely ripped at the seams. Not only did I have to pay $169 for it, but the lady told me, “We have more dresses in the plus-sized section!” FML I agree, your life sucks 252 You deserved it 1 841 6 comments Share

It's a size smaller than my usual, just to encourage me to lose weight.

Anonymous · 7 October 2009, 01:11 ·Canada Silver linings Today, I went shopping for a new pair of jeans. I was feeling good about the fact that I was going down a waist size until the cashier decided to discuss with me, three co-workers, and the ten other people in line how she didn't even know jeans came in sizes that big.

There's no way that's 1 size down, unless you're wearing too tight of clothing to begin with.

I find it hard to believe that getting it on went smoothly. You surely had indications that it was too small and ignored them.

How did you get into it? Also why would you put on a size smaller?
