Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You've obviously never heard of the "Free Hug Tax".

The local ******' Guild had you arrested for product dumping. Or maybe an undercover cop heard you hawk your paid services while receiving said "free" hug. It's like those "free" vacations where you have to attend a boring timeshare speech. Nothing is free.

I'm actually wearing a free hug shirt right now, and one day a cop even gave me a hug. I don't know what's wrong with your cops

Legally, they are. You might find it funny or crazy (and I'm not saying it isn't), but it's legally considered a form of soliciting and akin to prostitution. Most people let it slip, but every once in a while, someone gets arrested for it. Either because they were being annoying or the cop suspected there might be something more to it, or the cop was just in an angry day and decided to apply the law all the way instead of closing their eyes. Incidentally, you are the crazed one if you need to insult some random woman because you disagree with what she was saying. The no free hugs thing may suck, it's still the law and what she said was accurate...

That's funny, I'm walking around with my "Free Hugs" thong wearing nothing else but flip-flops. The cops are laughing at me and giving me the thumbs-up! I guess Texas > Georgia.

Consider yourself lucky. I broke the nose of one of you idiots when he came running at me flinging a sign around so a fine is still better.
