Today, as I was getting out of my car, an old and obese lady walked up to me and called me an "inconsiderate heartless bitch" for using the last handicap parking spot. I guess she didn't see my wheelchair. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was taking a walk, when an elderly lady in a motorized wheelchair slammed into me from behind. There was plenty of room to pass by, but noooo, trying to run me down like a dog, then giving me the finger and yelling "Watch where you're walking!" is so damn preferable. FML
Today, after parking in the handicapped spot of a lot with my placard, an older couple with their 7-year-old grandchild came up and yelled at me for being a lying asshole and taking the parking spot. When I showed them my prosthetic leg, the kid started crying and guess who got yelled at again. FML
Today, I parked in a "Disabled" space. A woman and her kids comes yelling at me about how I don't look disabled and I was just being selfish. I roll my pants up to reveal two prosthetic legs. She then yells at me that I should have warned her before showing my legs since it could scare her kids. FML
Today, I was sitting in a parked car. A woman was having difficulties maneuvering out. She honked the horn repeatedly for me to move, then looked me in the eye and called me a "f**king bitch", before driving off. I was in the passenger seat. FML
Today, I was walking to my dorm room while it was snowing heavily. I saw a girl in a wheelchair trying to get up a slippery incline. Being a good person, I asked to help. I'm a pretty weak guy, and I couldn't push her up. She wheeled away crying because she thought she was fat. FML
Today, while leaving work, I noticed a woman struggling with her wheelchair. Trying to be kind, I grabbed the handles and began to push her. A few moments later, the front wheels caught on something and I ended up dumping her onto the ground. Now my coworkers all think I'm a huge douche. FML
Today, I noticed a flashy car badly parking itself in a handicapped space. I hate the asshats who do this, so I went up to berate the driver. After an opening salvo of coarse language, a glint of light on his wheelchair in the back caught my eye. I then had to apologise for being a shitehawk. FML
Today, I really had to pee so I took the only stall that was available in the bathroom: the handicapped stall. A girl in a wheelchair came in seconds later and cursed at me for taking her designated spot. FML
Today, an old lady asked me the way to the shopping mall. The shopping mall was not too far away, but I could see that the lady could barely walk so I offered to drive her there. She smacked my car's door into a pole while getting in my car. She didn't even notice that she'd done something wrong. FML
Today, I parked in a disabled bay so I could drop my son off at his appointment. My son uses crutches and has a blue badge. As I was trying to leave, an absolute Karen started chewing my ass for using a disabled bay while “not looking disabled”, then lay under my wheels to stop me leaving. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

She probably couldn't see past her massive gut.

Fatties have no place in the disabled parking spot, it is not a disability that you get so fat that movement is a chore, it is gluttony and laziness! I have nothing against naturally large people who eat moderately and exercise and stay that shape, but acting like like an entitled **** because you scarfed down enough greasy food to turn yourself into a sphere does not earn you any pity in my eyes. Put them on a giant hamster wheel and slap them with whipping branches (the most painful areas are the fatty areas) in order to generate electricity.

Easy Tiger!!! We must not assume that every large person is overweight just because they love Maccas.. Do you personally know the story of everyone with a disabled permit? Do you think its fair to pass judgement without knowing the full story? I know two people who have disabled parking permits. Both as a result of car accidents. The first appears able bodied, however cant walk more than a few hundred metres at a time. He was in a coma for 3 months after a bike accident. The second one is obese, and she was that way before hers. Afew years ago she was in an accident breaking both legs. Her knees dislocate when she walks sometimes. Im not saying what this lady in OPs situation was right. But i know 100% you sure as hell arent!

I got a permanent disability permit/license plate, because I am also the kind that only walk so far before having to stop because of an impairment with my right leg. I look able bodied, but the trauma I had received was to the part of my brain that controls my right leg and I have a very bad noticeable limp and need a cane, since it did take me about 2 years to walk right again without a wheelchair or walker. I get glares and evil looks for overweight people and old people all the time. if they only knew that trauma I had gone through nearly 12 years ago because of a drunk driver. And op, I hope that idiots like this stop misjudging you. And to number #23, thanks for mentioning and supporting your friends :)

If she hasn't seen her feet in years, what makes you think she saw your wheelchair?

Yeah, unfortunately that's just part of being in a wheelchair. I've been paralyzed for about 8 years and some people are just ridiculously inconsiderate. try to focus on the people who go out of their way to be polite and considerate rather than idiots like this woman.

I feel your pain op. I'm a quadriplegic and old people love to take the van only spaces designed for vans with ramps. If i have to I'll just take up 6 normal parking spaces.

Got to love riding around town and seeing one fat lady in a hoverround wheelchair tied to and pulling one in a push wheelchair.

I hate that. I get it all the time. I have a rare "invisible disease" that is extremely painful called ehlers danlos syndrom. Hellllooo, I have a handicap sticker for a reason. Sometimes even my service dog doesnt complete the picture for them.

I have EDS and OI. I have arthritis because of EDS but it's not extremely painful.

For the most part, being fat isn't a disability. I would've told her off.

Why would you assume this person doesn't have a disability besides being fat? You guys are ridiculous. I hope none of you ever get an illness and get judged.

She bitched someone out who uses a wheelchair. She should've been more considerate.

I once drove my grandfather's car, that had a handicap sticker on it. Since it was me and not him driving, I parked in a normal spot. Someone bitched me out, claiming that I should have parked in the handicap to leave the rest for others. :P
