Today, I was at Walmart walking around when I slipped on some water and twisted my ankle. As I was getting up, a man came up to me and said, "There's some water on the floor, watch out." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I tripped over a "Caution: Slippery When Wet" floor sign and sprained my ankle. FML
Today, as I was putting some dishes away, I spilled water on the floor. While walking around the dishwasher, I slipped on said water, and after going to urgent care, found out I tore my meniscus. FML
Today, I slipped on the wet floor at work and sprained my wrist badly. I was carrying the wet floor sign so no one would slip. FML
Today, I was at the water park, when I slipped and fell to the ground in front of the no running sign. I was walking. FML
Today, I was shopping when I suddenly slipped on the wet floor and my basket and my groceries were flung everywhere. Moments later, one of the cleaners walked over holding a "wet floor" sign, saw me and laughed. FML
Today, while working at my job at a nursing home, I slipped and fell. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just water. No, one of the residents had just had an "accident". FML
Today, I was at work at Walmart, casually walking in the middle of the store, when my foot caught on something, so I went flying forward and yelled, being caught off guard, to the point I had to pretend I was running for 3 seconds, then someone blocked my path so I suddenly had to stop. Everyone was staring at me. FML
Today, I slipped on a small wet patch of floor in the grocery store and fell flat on my back, bringing my half-full shopping cart down with me. FML
Today, I slipped on a wet floor in the grocery store. Instead of falling gracefully or quickly, I windmilled my arms for a few seconds while making direct eye contact with a toddler who looked genuinely impressed. I didn’t fall, but still… FML
Today, I was at a grocery store when I slipped on a puddle of water. I tried to catch my balance, grabbed a shelf, and instead took down an entire display of chocolate boxes. People rushed over to help, albeit while smirking, and a kid yelled, “Do it again!” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Your fall could be incredibly profitable if you sue everyone indiscriminately.

As long as you weren't hurt I dont think there's a need for a lawsuit. But I think that dude was a little late warning you. FYL for him being a dumbass.

The point of saying something like that after the fact is to be facetious. I appreciate his disposition.

Seriously? I don't understand how people manage to do these kinda things. I can always see water on the floor!

If it's on something like a white tile floor, I usually can't see it unless I get close to it.

Who inspects the floor at all times? Not most people...

You actually CAN sue, if they didn't have a sign. FYL

Actually that's not true, i work at walmart, and I've seen this happen all to often, the only way Op could sue is if he/she make a compliant that prove that it was a spill as a result from an employee and if that spill had been their long, if it was another customer that caused the spill and didn't report it then op is screwed.

Well you do not really know the situation so you cannot assume anything. If the person that came up to OP was a worked then they knew that it was there because it seemed as if they were being sarcastic.

dude that aint true, eg : if i go to your house and something happens to me like a slip and fall on water or sometthing i can sue you ! cuz YOU will are responsible when am on your property. it dusnt matter who spilled the water.

Actually, every store has cameras, and any liquid that they were not taking care of is their problem. They ARE liable.

Not every square foot of a store is covered by a camera at all times, it's too costly and time consuming.

Don't sue op, that'll hurt my bonus, I work for walmart, think of the little people. :p
