Today, I decided to motivate myself to workout by looking at a picture of a guy with a six-pack on my computer screen while doing abs. My dad walked in after I finished and was still breathing heavily from working out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the gym after months of procrastinating. I walked straight into the glass wall next to the entrance instead of the door. A guy lifting near the front desk winced in sympathy. I still worked out, but I could see my face slowly swelling in the mirror. FML
Today, I was at the gym on the elliptical. Feeling proud of myself for finishing a very intense workout, I looked to my left to see that the maintenance guy fixing the machine next to me had burned more calories testing the machine than I did during my entire workout. FML
Today, I told my dad I was gonna to start working out again. He looked at me with honest confusion on his face and said, "You worked out before?" My mother started laughing. She was all the way upstairs. FML
Today, I told my dad I was going to the gym. He stood up and clapped. FML
Today, at the gym, I caught sight of myself in the mirror while lifting weights and thought, “Damn, I look good!” I smiled. Then I realized the mirror was actually a window. A group of people outside had been watching me flex with a shit-eating grin on my face for God know how long. FML
Today, I was at the gym running with intensity on the treadmill. As I was working out, I noticed a few guys behind me staring at me. I figured they were checking me out because I was losing some weight and looking better. Turns out they were betting on how much longer "Fat Ass" could last. FML
Today, I finally felt motivated to do some exercise. As I got my weights out, I noticed out of the corner of my eye someone moving about outside my window. I got scared and dropped a weight on my foot. The person outside was my own reflection. FML
Today, I was working out at the gym. A very attractive girl was watching me work out, so feeling like a stud, I tried to lift a really heavy weight. I failed, got trapped, and watched helplessly as she walked away laughing. FML
Today, while working out at the gym, I paused to check out a beautiful woman. The guy behind me said "Are you going to do your set or are you going to keep staring at my wife?" FML
Today, I decided to start my exercise video routine. It's an African dance workout DVD. Just as I felt confident and motivated about getting in shape, I realized that my window was wide open and my neighbors were getting a front row seat to me waving my arms in the air like an idiot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Next time try and motivate yourself while looking at a female bodybuilder, still awkward but at least she doesn't have a penis

To me, this seems like the perfect opportunity to play mind games with your dad.

You were heavy breathing from working on abs...? Maybe a tad out of shape. Toning shouldn't take your breath away OP

I am a lazy s.o.b. and sometimes when I run into pics of muscular guys online I want to save them, because the pictures motivate me to actually working out. But I worry that someone would find them on my computer and it would be awkward.

Well im a girl so thats why i save pics of like taylor lautner or liam payne or zayne malik or kellan lutz-- for motivation to work out and because they r amazing and i love them. For motivation, guys should us pics of women with abs.

Is it really THAT bad being gay?
the_true_batman 10
No, but it can be that bad having people think you are gay when you are not. For example, girls will think you are just using them to trick people into thinking you're straight, and so won't go out with you. I can imagine a month from now: Today, I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents. My dad told her that I am gay and am just using her as a beard, and it would be best for me if she dumped me so that I could accept who I am and start living as a gay man. I'm straight. FML

It's not as if your pants were around your knees at the time and to be honest you had an explanation (who cares if he thinks you are gay anyway that is his problem).
