Today, as I was walking to my car, I noticed a car with a tail light out. Trying to be a good citizen, I walked up to the driver's side door and said, "Excuse me…" The lady then maced me through the open window. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a woman maced me from her car window because I was approaching her in a menacing, rapist kind of way. She never happened to consider that my car was in the parking spot right next to hers. She didn’t apologise, just said it was my fault for looking like a rapist, and drove away leaving me half blind. FML
Today, I was walking through a crosswalk when a lady in a car looked at me with a horrified expression and then hit her door locks repeatedly. FML
Today, I was hit by a car speeding through an intersection after the light had already turned red. Still partly blacked out, I crawled onto the sidewalk and I sat down. The woman rolled down her car window and yelled, "Watch where you're going!" as she drove by. FML
Today, I got rear-ended. An old woman got out and came over to my car window. I thought she was coming to apologize and trade insurance companies. Instead, she poured her soda on my head, ran back into her car, and drove away. FML
Today, I was driving when a woman started crossing the street against the light at the upcoming intersection, so I slammed on the brakes and stopped short of hitting her. That's when she intentionally jumped onto my car and started screaming that I had "mowed her down". The cops believed her. FML
Today, I was sitting in a parked car. A woman was having difficulties maneuvering out. She honked the horn repeatedly for me to move, then looked me in the eye and called me a "f**king bitch", before driving off. I was in the passenger seat. FML
Today, after parking my car, I was informed by an incredibly hot girl that my tail light was faulty. I tried hitting it to make it work again. Guess who has 5 stitches and a smashed tail light? FML
Today, I got pulled over by a cop. Since my window wasn't working, I opened the door, causing him to run towards me with a drawn gun. He then had a go at me with his night stick. After realizing my window was broken, he laughed and let me off with a warning. FML
Today, while I was walking to class, I was hit by a car. The driver stopped to let me cross in front of her, started moving again, hit me, and then yelled at me, saying it was my fault for walking in front of her. FML
Today, I couldn't get into my car. In an attempt to get in, I broke a window. As I climbed in, the actual owner of the car walked up. Mine was across the street. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Don't mess with people. Just let the cops issue the tickets and make that lady go to several courthouses simultaneously.

And she was trying to be a good citizen by burning your eyeballs. Awesome how things work out.

I'm more interested in the circumstances. Where were you that you were able to just go up to her window? Were you a hobo on the side of the road? Did you get out of your car just to go up to her window? I probably would have maced you too.

Hate when that happens...

4# Perhaps OP's car was parked in a parking lot and as op was walking towards it, they noticed the other car.

It would be kind of hard for op to do that.

Depends what state they're in, some states it's legal to shoot anyone you think may pose an immediate threat. OP, a stranger to this woman checks out her car, then walks upto her window, she maced him (far less severe than shooting), so a judge could see how the woman thought she was under threat.

I'm just gonna assume that there probably are not all too many black people left in these states, right? Just cause... y'know, those poor old ladies who are scared of black people and then the fact that pretty much every single person above the age of 13 carries a weapon around.

Maybe, but starting a conversation hardly constitutes a threat. There would have to be a weapon visible, or physical contact should have been made. Just talking to someone is a long way from a threat :P.

The woman probably thought you were the state trooper that ticketed her twice for the same reason!

You probably should have removed your Jason mask prior to approaching her.

Why is that? Where does this statement come from, anyone know? Please do tell. Because it seems to be frighteningly true lately with me.

46 - I don't believe it to be true. I recon what goes around comes around. Do good and it'll come right back at ya. Try it.

46- well, it's a song in Wicked (a musical, if you don't know) but aside from that, it's probably something that comes from biblical origin, what with Jesus doing good things then being killed for them and such. other than that I don't know

She thought you were a cop and was trying to make a getaway, don't take it offensively OP.
