Today, I chuckled at a "No Smoking" sign as I lit my cigarette. I bent my head down to light it and somehow managed to light my hair on fire. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I lit a cigarette in the opposite direction of the wind. My hair blew into it, and caught on fire. FML
Today, while lighting a cigar, I set my beard on fire. FML
Today, I was standing on the patio when one of my upstairs neighbors threw a cigarette butt over the balcony. It landed on my head and burned some of my hair. FML
Today, I was smoking a cigarette in my backyard while my parents were out, because I'm not allowed to smoke. While smoking, my parents came home unexpectedly. In a rush, I flicked it over the fence, and it landed in my neighbor's hair. It was still lit. FML
Today, I was refilling my lighter. Afterwards, I gave it a test light. I must've spilled some fluid because my thumb caught on fire. FML
Today, I was at a fire roasting marshmallows. When mine caught on fire, I pulled it back so I could blow out the flames. It flew off the stick, and, still flaming, landed on my face. FML
Today, my daughter somehow got a hold of the lighter we keep on top of the fridge. I found this out when she snuck up behind me and thought it would be fun to set my hair on fire. FML
Today, due to the dry weather, my nose became dry and began to bleed so I plugged it with toilet paper and went about my business. Forgetting about it, I later went out to smoke a cigarette. Not paying attention, I lit the toilet paper on fire as well. FML
Today, I quit smoking cigarettes. While driving to work, the car in front of me flicked his out the window, flying straight into mine. It set the bottom of my seat on fire. FML
Today, I burned my nose. How? I tried sniffing a lit candle. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I don't blame older people for smoking back when they started it was cool, all it's harmful effects weren't known, and tobacco companies could still advertise and distort the facts. but anyone who has chosen to smoke after these things stopped is a ******* idiot.

They don't deserve it for smoking. They deserve it for lighting up in a no-smoking area.

This could just as easily have been "Today, I chuckled at a no smoking sign as I proceeded to light my cigarette. Then a man nearby had a serious asthma attack triggered by the smoke and had to go to the hospital. Now I may be getting sued because I'm an inconsiderate moron who thinks rules only apply to other people." YDI for sure. If it was ok for you to smoke just anywhere, there wouldn't be designated smoking areas. What happened to you was karma. And funny.

Is there a reason why EVERYONE assumes this is a he not a she? Kind of sexist here...

So, before I comment I'd like to preface my statement with a note about where I'm coming from on this issue. I play with fire, it's a hobby, plenty of people do. Some like to blow stuff up, some like getting their skin branded as a body modification, I preform fire dancing. I spin fire poi and "breathe" fire, if you don't know what it is then google it you will find plenty about the history of fire dancing and some cool videos. Anyone who puts fire that close to their face and isn't careful with it totally deserves to light themselves on fire. Also everyone knows that hair products are flammable so if you are using those and get fire that close to your head then YDI. I don't have anything against smokers, I don't smoke, but no smoking signs are there for a reason. If you want to go play in traffic in front of a sign that says "No Jaywalking" then I'll thank you for taking yourself out of the gene pool when your poor choices finally end up killing you. On a side note, I love the Death sticks, and the Monty Python references! Yes I know that makes me a total nerd, I don't care.

Normally, I would respond with a "tl;dr" comment, but I liked how you phrased your response. And anyone who likes the Simpsons and MPATHG is a good person. PS - I've seen and tried "fire spinning" on South Beach before; it's a bla... um... cool... um... awesome!

Yeah it's lots of fun, I do it for the adrenaline rush, and to entertain friends but I expect to get burned sometimes. Comes with the territory.
