Today, I got kicked off the train because I refused to stand for an old lady who wanted to sit down. There was an empty seat right next to me. FML
Godsfavourite tells us more.
The train had those seats that run parallel with the walls of the train, not the window and aisle seats. And I tell you know that the lady was just one of those people that looks down their nose at most youth. I was in no way disrespectful to her and when I pointed out the seat next to me and she went and told the security guards that I refused to stand up for her. It's messed up, man. OP

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's right, fight for your damn chair. We can't let the elderly win at everything.

gah thats happened to me. I was sitting at the front of the bus since i had a lot of shopping and the front seats have the space to store it. This old woman (with no stick or trouble walking may i add) looked at me sitting there with two empty seats behind me and stood there and huffed and puffed. I refused to move and she sat behind me. I have always been curteous on the train or bus but sometimes my needs trump others like needing to sit next to the buggy bay but the old women wont move to accomodate you then even when the rest of the bus is practically empty. If the other seat was the window seat then you should have scooted across OP if not then its her fault for not going to the other empty seat.

Why couldn't the old lady take the empty seat? Why should the OP have to move? The old lady and the train operator are idiots, as are all of you that blame the OP.

FYL, Australia's public transportation sucks, here in Portugal you can't get kicked from a transport for not being curteous

So glad my great gran isn't that type of old person. She's the type that would give up her seat for someone else. Any time she comes to my house an there aren't enough chairs for my visitors she offers to stand so I can sit in a chair ((I always choose the floor))
