Today, a man pulled a knife on me just so he could mug me of the cigarette I was smoking. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, a man tried to mug me. I actually apologized to him for not having my wallet on me. FML

Get back here
Today, a man in a hurry asked me for a light. Not being able to find my lighter amongst the muddle inside my handbag, I handed him my lit cigarette so he could light his. He took it from me, started smoking it and walked off. FML

Today, I was walking down the street in the dark, and the woman in front of me kept looking back nervously. I jokingly assured her that I wasn't a mugger. She then took out a knife and mugged me. FML

Today, a total stranger asked me to marry him while we were waiting for the bus. I turned him down. He then pulled a knife on me, grabbed my purse and ran. FML
irony, huh?

Today, I got mugged. For an actual mug. FML

Leg it
Today, someone tried to mug me. I panicked and ran. As they chased me with their knife out, I heard a slip and a shout behind me but kept running. Six blocks later I was spotted, arrested, and held for questioning by the police. The mugger fell, stabbed themselves, and told a cop that I did it. FML

Today, some guy on the street threatened to stab me. I called his bluff, and walked away. He wasn't bluffing. FML

Today, I gave a man a cigarette. He spent the rest of the day so far following me around, telling me all about his medical history, and chasing after me when I got too far away. I couldn't get rid of him for hours. FML

Thanks, dude
Today, I was late to work and couldn't get my gas tank open. Panicking, I asked the only person around to help me who happened to be a very large man. He was able to open it for me and seemed really nice. That is until he pulled out a knife and robbed me. FML

Great timing
Today, I got mugged. As the guys who took my purse were about to walk away, my cellphone rang in my pocket. FML

lest he didn't smoke you.

That was a horrible pun. As for OP, just be thankful all he wanted was a smoke.
puggypark 14
OP, you shouldn't even smoke anyway. Give that man a medal.
xlord 27
Stop being so pretentious. Alcohol, television, junk food and so many other things are bad for you. I'll be happy to take your television away and you can give me a medal.

Did you mean stab?

It's their problem if they smoke or not, why should it concern you? Like my poem goes: You brought it on yourself, you're dying on a bed. Your lungs are filled with smoke and tar, you ignored what they had said.

71- your poem kind of goes against what you were saying.
imaginaryvoice 18
It could have been a lot worse.

40- I'm not entirely sure on alcohol, but television and junk food don't give you cancer -.-

All those thing you just stated are good in moderation. Smoking is bad no matter how often you do it.

120- that is debatable

He's sending you a message OP!!

When you were in elementary school, had anyone ever stolen your pencil? Did you take that as a sign to never write again, or to drop out of school?
fml1365 30
A message from the heavens (:
Dancer3626 11
Last time I checked pencils weren't bad for you at all.

53- unless you sharpen one a lot then absentmindedly stab yourself with it.

And just earlier, someone was buried for their anti-smoking stance. FML is always an enigma.

53- Well, in all fairness, I haven't seen many stats on the medical side effects of smoking a box of pencils daily for 15 years, but I somehow doubt that's particularly good for you. ;)

Man, the struggle is real!

Well **** you. OP can make their own personal decisions. They don't need you trying to do it for them. If they want to do something unhealthy that's entirely their choice.

I don't know, playing with pencils might escalate to stabbing with forks

Buddy, he did you a favor.

He must have a killer nicotine addiction!

Yeah. Smoking kills.

YDI for smoking.
michelleJ11 25
You're saying he deserves to have a knife pulled on him because he smokes? With that logic, I think you deserve to have a knife pulled on you because you're ignorant.

Where the heck do you live that smoking is deserving of being mugged and threatened with a knife?

FLERIDAH!
bosox29 14
As previously stated there is no logic in what you're saying. That would be like someone pulling a knife on you for eating. In which case I would say "YDI at least now you won't get diabetes" yeah see how stupid that sounds?
Hollywoodgirl79 18
Just be glad he didn't take your phone or wallet. This is the one time I'm going to say it's actually good you were smoking....
DudeEvil 22
But the only reason he got mugged, was because he was smoking.
assassinthefirst 5
Swiss people love their knives...
brave_josh 9
Well....you're lucky he didn't mug you for something more valuable.
Catkam623 27
Well that's one bad addiction
slimkelsey 17
Smoking isn't good for you anyway.....maybe he was trying to save your life! Always a positive side!
MrConcise 35
And was willing to end it if he didn't get his way!
slimkelsey 17
He might've done it in a way that would be quick and painless unlike lung cancer!

Just remember nicotine is not habit-forming.

I'm pretty sure that it is.

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm.

I'm pretty sure you're wrong.

I'm pretty sure I'm late to the thread but I'm going to comment anyway.
