Today, I went to an over-crowded grocery store. As I reached the front of a long line, I noticed that a cart had been abandoned in everybody's way. Trying to be helpful, I moved it to the side. An enormous woman then shoved me and yelled at me for "pushing her property around." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was grocery shopping when I left my cart to grab an item. I returned, and started pushing the cart again. Halfway through the store, a furious lady confronted me, demanding her cart back. I had to walk back in shame to find my own actual cart, which was now nowhere to be found. FML
Today, I saw an elderly woman struggling to reach the top shelf in my local grocery store, so I went over and asked if she needed help. She then accused me of flirting with her and had me escorted from the property. FML
Today, I was shopping at Walmart, when a large lady and her friend blocked the aisle I was trying to go down. After saying, "Excuse me," twice and being ignored, I pushed my way through. After getting past, I looked back and noticed she was glaring at me while signing to her friend. FML
Today, I was at the store when I saw that a cart in the checkout line next to me was starting to roll away and the owner hadn't noticed. I tried to help by reaching out to stop the cart from moving, but when the owner saw me with the cart, she began to hit me for trying to steal her purse. FML
Today, an old lady savagely shoved me out of a queue, after I'd been waiting for twenty minutes. I couldn't bring myself to fight back or say anything, and ended up dragging my sorry arse to the back of the queue. FML
Today, I was at work, stocking shelves. A customer got mad because I was in the way of her "shopping time" and knocked down all the work I had done. FML
Today, I was grocery shopping, when an elderly lady walked up to me and tripped over her own feet. I caught her by the arm, at which point she shrieked at me for "groping" her. She ended up smirking as security threw me out of the store. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for trying to return a shopping cart to the cart corral. She then forced me to leave it in the parking lot. FML
Today, as I was working in retail, this guy shoved me into the shelves for asking if he needed help with anything, screaming at me that I need to leave him alone. FML
Today, I was at the supermarket when an elderly lady asked if I'd grab some coffee for her from a high shelf. The moment I took my hands off my almost-full shopping cart, she made off with it. I ended up getting thrown out by security after she claimed I was trying to steal it from her. FML

So she responds by pushing you around. Flawless logic.

Another fine example of the People of Walmart specimen.

Does it matter that the woman was "enormous?" Her behavior would have been inappropriate regardless of her size. Why did she just leave her cart there in the middle of the store? /facepalm Some people...

It doesn't matter, really. It's just an excuse for someone to make fun of fat people or try to justify that being fat makes one an unlikable person.

I like it when the OP includes details in the FML, it makes it more interesting. It could have just said: "Today, I was at the store. I moved a cart out of the way. A person pushed me and yelled at me." But what was actually posted was much more entertaining to read.

Was she, or was she not, the Mother of Honey Boo Boo?

This kinda happened to my mom in New York once, she just had to get something from I believe Walmart on the first day she was there..Bad choice, haha. There was an empty cart in a line for a register and she moved it, only to have an elderly woman come back with her arms full of things, drop it into the cart, and then ram the cart into the back of my moms ankles while cussing her out..

First off, why does her size matter? Would this have been okay if she looked like a super model? Second, I can't stand when people do that... my favorite is when there's nothing in a nearby empty cart but whoever had the cart just leaves it there to look at something, then come back and get all pissy at me for taking what was an empty cart with no one near it. Or if there's a random item in it that looks like it was also abandoned. Seriously, if people would just stay with their damn carts, this kind of crap wouldn't happen.
