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.

Wait and see if you need to sue, but don't close the door. I have spinal problems due to a similar fall, that got worse as time went on. Protecting yourself is not being a "bottom feeder".

Haha, I would say the same thing :p But, I'm sorry you fell. I hope your ankle heels fast.

Ankle injuries heal SLOW if at all. Most people can't stay off them entirely until the healing is done, which means it could be made worse.

I'm sorry, but why sue? It's your own fault for not paying attention to where you are walking. It's like the chick who sued McDonalds because they didn't tell her the coffee was hot. It could have been a customer, or maybe they were getting custodial help to get the spill. Just be cautious of where you are walking.

Wal-marts have white tile floors, water is clear and transparent, how could it be the op's fault if practically a large percent of human beings cant tell if there is water in the floor.

I work at fred meyers and it is against policy for us to to leave a spill on the floor even when getting supplies to cleab up the mess. Its a two person job. One watchs the mess to protect our customers from slipping while the other gets the spill kit. So Id say what happened is unacceptable.
