Today, I came home from the army and explained to my family how tough it was there. Then, as I was walking away, I stubbed my toe on the couch, fell and cried. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, as I got up from the couch, my computer, which was next to me, fell on to my pinky toe. It fell just so that the edge of it cut my toe open. I cursed, and hobbled toward the bathroom to get a bandage. As I'm going into the bathroom, I stub said toe on the door jamb. FML
Today, I woke up really out of it, and as I was walking into the kitchen, I stubbed my toe on a tile. I sat down, then got up and stubbed the same toe against the table, went over to the kitchen and stubbed the same toe on the same tile again. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs and landed heavily on my foot. Because I wasn't crying, my mom refused to take me to the hospital. It took me an hour of agony to convince her. It turned out to be broken in three different places. FML
Today, I went to shut the door and ended up banging my toe on my guitar stand; then, as I was getting a snack out of a closet, I banged my toe again on the drawer and now I can't walk. FML
Today, I tried to sneak into the kitchen for a midnight snack. I stubbed my toe so hard on a stool leg, I yelped then tried to keep as quiet as possible. My mom came running, thinking our cat and dog were fighting and hissing again. I hobbled back to bed, only to realize I didn't actually get any food. FML
Today, my girlfriend, her grandma, and I were leaving her house to eat lunch. I stubbed my toe on the door while exiting. It hurt, so I stood there shortly in pain. I heard my girlfriend's grandma call me a "pansy". I later saw blood and took off my shoe. My whole toenail had come off of my big toe. FML
Today, the neighbors heard a blood curdling scream and called the cops, thinking I was being murdered. Nope. I just stubbed my toe. FML
Today, I hit my toe against a table. Out of frustration, I kicked the table and broke my little toe. FML
Today, I was home alone in my apartment. I tripped over my dresser and fell and sprained my ankle. As I was laying there in agonizing pain, my downstairs neighbor shouted at me to shut up. FML
Today, since my family and friends always make fun of me for being a wuss when it comes to pain, when I stubbed my toe, I made a point to not scream or complain in any way. Instead, I vomited and fainted. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Just be thankful you didn't step on a lego block. Many a good men have lost their lives to those foul pieces of plastic.

Say it was a land mine the enemy planted in order to thwart you.

awful lot of feminine posters here on fml. pain is relative. You can feel it without having to be a b!tch about it.

People who go to war, which I hate, have to endure things worse than any movie or video game can ever fully capture, and you don't know what it's like unless you've been through that hell yourself. So yeah, I can understand why OP might be more a little more emotional than usual when they finally came home, alive and in once piece after experiencing human behavior at its absolute worst.

He never said anything about going to war. The are several jobs in the Army where the soldier never sees a single day of combat. Why do people automatically assume anyone who is in the military has been to war?!

One time I was running to the living room from the kitchen and I stubbed my left pinky toe on the cabinet, I hit it so hard it actually fractured my foot. My dad was like "Get up you're acting like a baby" then went on to pamper my sister who got a tiny scrape on her knee.

Why is everyone being so douche baggish about this?? My fiance is in the army, and he is the biggest teddy bear i have ever met. Army trains them to be gentlemen, to take orders from their superiors, and to respect others. Not to resist any or all types of pain or to be emotionless. Obviously some people don't understand that....
