Today, I found out that if I were 2 inches shorter, I would have to sit in a booster seat in the car. I'm about to turn 22. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my parents told me that due to my lacking height and weight, I legally have to sit in a booster seat in the car from now on. I'm nineteen. FML
Today, I got pulled over, not because I was speeding but because apparently, I looked like a kid driving. The officer said I was too short to drive and needed a booster seat. FML
Today, after boarding my flight, the flight attendant looked at me and said that I had to sit elsewhere because I had to be over 14 to sit near the emergency exit. I'm 22. FML
Today, I was seated, once again, at the "too small" children's table. I'm twenty. FML
Today, I found out my lifespan has been reduced by a year just because of where I was born. FML
Today, the seat in my car broke and wouldn't move forward. I had to walk to school in the rain because I was too short to reach the pedals. FML
Today, I discovered that I'm short enough to be legally considered a midget. My daughter now wants to bring me to school for show and tell. FML
Today, despite being in high school, I'm still shorter than the average 3rd grader. FML
Today, I realized I'm too short to use the urinals at work. FML
Today, I was standing in a bus, hanging on to a pole. At a roundabout, I turned with the bus… and blocked my spine. I'm 22 years-old. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

There are worse things in life than being short. At least you aren't a whiny little bitch. Oh, wait...

I'm sorry, but 5'6 is very short. Espescially if you are a guy. I'm a girl and 5'7, and that is concidered normal where I'm from... There is nothing wrong with being short though ;)

No need to apologise, especially as you're talking nonsense. Since when has 5 ft 6" been considered very short?!

the new recommendations that just came out are up to 12 yrs old now, actually. not sure when it changes from "recommendation" to "law" though...

1) You're not 2 inches shorter than you are so don't complain. 3) Don't go up to someone way taller than you and say their hair smells nice

MissBunny - I hope you're kidding, since that's certainly not how you count by threes.

I think missbunny was completely serious. o.0 What are the odds that someone could fail so hard?!

first if all, you aren't 2 inches shorter. second, the day you turned 8 you officially never have to use a booster seat again
livy0611 0
not nessicerely. if you are really that short, then you still need a booster seat, regardless of age.

No, the law clearly states an age limit on it.

Livy, I'm having you arrested for raping the word "necessarily".

I don't know about everywhere but my state has height requirements. if I stand as tall as I can I beat it by a half inch =]. yet I never thought to post a fml about it.

What's a buster seat? Do you mean booster seat?

Hey at least you've got those two inches. I'm too tall to fit into most sports cars (not that I could afford them).
