The ball game
Today, I was at a baseball game. I was eating my nachos when all of a sudden I woke up in the hospital, with my dad sitting next to the bed. Apparently, I was hit with a foul ball. He kept the ball for himself. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was in the cafeteria at a table near the guy I like. He was playing around with a ball with a couple of his friends. They dropped it, and it rolled over next to my foot. When I bent down to pick it up, I smashed my head against a chair. FML
Today, I was walking in the street, and the next thing I know, I'm waking up in a hospital. According to witnesses, a guy came up and hit me over the head with a baseball bat. Apparently that's a thing that happens now. But it's okay, he had an excuse: he said he was drunk. FML
Today, I got hit so hard in the head by a dodgeball that a contact popped right out. To make matters worse, I continued to get hit as a futilely searched for it. FML
Today, I went to a baseball game. It was windy, so I decided to get my hat from the car trunk. When I opened it and reached in, loose papers started flying everywhere. Panicked, my dad slammed the trunk shut on my fingers. Entering the stadium, I discovered it was free hat day. FML
Today, my baseball team had a game and one of our best players was injured sliding into first. I'm pretty fast so when the coach called my name I grabbed a helmet assuming it was finally my chance to get in the game. Turns out he just wanted me to get ice. The entire team couldn't stop laughing. FML
Today, I had a crucial volleyball playoff game. My dad came to watch. While in a set, my friend pointed over to the bench where my dad was sitting. I turned to see my dad snoring loudly as a result of him falling asleep. He achieved this with loudly cheering people all around him. FML
Today, my first date consisted of him and me in the emergency room of the hospital after his little brother hit me in the face with a baseball bat. FML
Today, I was pitching at a fastpitch softball game. The other team chanted about the ball being too high and almost hitting the batter in the eye. After throwing the next pitch, the ball was savagely returned by the batter, straight into my eyes. FML
Today, I went to the game with my boss and some people he does business with on his tab. I got so drunk that I blacked out, threw up all over the table, and passed out in the bathroom. I woke up alone with my body reeking of vomit, and no phone. FML
Today, I went to an amateur baseball game with some family and friends. When our team hit a home run, my grandpa took it upon himself to start screaming wildly, removing his prosthetic leg and waving it jubilantly in the air. FML

Were the nachos hurt?

Apparently, you like getting smacked with balls. Why do you want it? I wouldn't want to hold onto balls other people have held and smacked around.

Ouch...Well at least he stayed with you. I think he had a fair claim to it, seeing as you were kinda knocked out when it bounced off your head and landed between the seats...

The whole knocked out thing is an FYL, but as for the ball........ we need a "Who cares" Button.

That's exactly how capitalism works! Your dad made the catch, mainly because of your failure, so he keeps the ball and doesn't have to share it with you. [sarcasm]I'm sure your hospital bills will make you proud to live in a country where we freely choose our health insurance from a wide range of competitive options.[/sarcasm] Unfortunately, this story probably has a subversive socialist ending, because the stupid nacho hog is going to have access to the ball eventually. So, kiddies, to succeed in capitalism, keep your eyes open for others' failures as opportunities to profit. Jump right in take what is there.

So you were so absorbed in your nachos you didn't notice any of the signs that a foul ball was coming your way? Like the smack of a bat, and all the people around you lunging to catch it? YDI. That's the stupidest thing ever. If you like nachos that much you ought to cut back on them.... might get hurt.

Good job @ being alert @ the ball game. if you want some nachos, you should eat them elsewhere. The mall might be better suited for you. leave the ball games to the real fans!

uhhh don't you listen to the warning before the game that foul balls and broken bats may fly back into the audience? YDI to the max.

TOTALLY like A Prayer for Owen Meany (book) slash Simon Birch (the movie)... ridiculously so. Made me laugh though, but hope you're okay!

Count yourself as lucky for waking up. There was a little boy hit with a foul ball a few weeks ago. It broke his skull. The doctor's don't know if he will ever fully recover.
