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

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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?

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

Reason #572 to quit smoking....

Being mugged is a reason to stop smoking? You should stop carrying everything around with you because you could get mugged, with your logic. Don't ever leave the house, in fact; you could get mugged.

Dude. Calm down ^

You should have stuck the cigarette butt in his eye and mug him instead for his knife.

are people really gonna go the "YDI for smoking" route....really?? no one deserves having a knife pulled on them for ANY reason, especially when they're just casually standing there not bothering anyone. (inb4 being bothered by cigarette smoke, which is only a valid argument if the smoker is indoors) how about we focus on the attacker, who's clearly not right in the head for mugging someone of one cigarette (or mugging anyone, for anything at all)?

Preach.

Yeah, I mean come on. He had the knife out already, why not take the whole pack?

Another cause of smoking-related deaths

I'm pretty sure, if OP was killed, it would be considered a murder.

A smoking-related murder is still a smoking related death. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

But then he could die from smoking #34.

Was asking just too hard for him, or was it your last smoke?

Desperate times, indeed.

Seems a bit too extreme...

Yes, because he couldnt have just asked for one?

Muggers aren't usually that polite.

That was the first thing I thought of. Unless I'm down to only two or three I'll gladly give one to someone who asks politely.

I don't smoke but we all have vices. Everyone, stop playing holier than thou! The OP didn't deserve to get mugged!
