Today, I got punched in the face, had hair ripped out of my skull and broke a tooth on the pavement when I fell. Some guy mistook me for someone else. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was walking down the street, when I saw a guy in front of me trip and fall forwards, and I quickly jumped forward to steady him. Apparently he thought he was being mugged, and threw his head backwards into my face, leaving my nose a bloody mess. FML
Today, I was walking down the street to go to the movies, when I got punched in the back of the head. When I turned around, a stranger said, "HAHA! It's punch a random person day!" When I asked him why he chose me, he replied "You're ugly." FML
Today, I was walking down the street when someone started yelling at me, saying I was dead. I bolted, ran into a pole and when they caught up to me, said "Oh, wrong person." and walked off, leaving me bruised on the ground. FML
Today, someone punched me in the back of the head, so I swung round and broke their nose. It was some woman screaming at me for wearing headphones and ignoring her. She then pulled a hidden disability badge out her pocket so everyone thought I was beating up a disabled person. FML
Today, I was walking to class, when a kid came up behind me and smacked me in the face a few times until I fell to the ground. I rolled over and he said, "Oh shit! Wrong person, my bad." FML
Today, whilst presenting a report to the head of my college, I was arrested by a police officer for assault. I was in a bar the night before and accidentally bumped into a local tough guy on the way to the toilet. I got punched in the face. The witnesses got our names mixed up. That'll look great on my CV. FML
Today, some dumbass ripped my facemask off, spit in my face, and ran away. FML
Today, I got punched in the face by a girl for asking if she was okay after I had seen her crying. FML
Today, some guy punched me so hard I lost a tooth. I defended myself and broke his nose, so he started screaming for his mother. He turned out to be autistic, so witnesses, including the police, said I should have been more understanding of his disability after HE HIT ME AND TOOK MY FUCKING TOOTH OUT. FML
Today, I was beaten up by a complete stranger for “giving her a dirty look.” I can’t see my own face. FML

How can OP deserve this? Did you set that couch on fire?

I really hope you called the cops OP, because this person not only assaulted you, but is probably going to do the same to someone else. Hope you're feeling better!

Wait and time your revenge

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. And this guy dosen't need another injury.

She should take revenge in the form of assault charges. Even if the guy thought she was someone else....what kind of douche just goes up to a woman and beats her up?

#29 would be a good idea if it was a real thing maybe.

Wow that's horrible. Sorry OP.
Wizardo 34
May be completely irrelevant, but this guy has my nickname and therefore I am now off-hand famous. Glad I'm not this Zizi though.
MrSassypants 34
If you were too famous and your name was Zizi, would you be Zizi-top?
Wizardo 34
I wish, if anyone was to be related to an amazing band that would be well, amazing.

By 'police' you mean 'assault and battery charges'?

I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that a GUY would attack a GIRL without any reason(she looked like someone else is not a reason)..I can't believe what I'm reading. I'm devastated that anyone would do this.
emilyjgraham 34
39, let's just reverse it for a second here. Let's just say if a bloke did it to another bloke would you not be devastated that some could do that to another human? What about a woman to another woman or even a woman to a man? I'm, personally, ashamed that ANYONE could think this is right way to handle a situation and to end up getting the wrong person is just absolutely crazy!
sstahpp 33
No matter who did what or how..just attacking someone or anyone is disgusting.
Aimeejasmine 15
#41 I absolutely hate it people do this. Thing is the situation isn't reversed, so how is your comment helping OP in any way? They did not mean one form of abuse is somehow more worthy of attention than another? It is surprising to see someone attack anyone like that, get off their back they didn't purposely try to offend you. Gah
MrSassypants 34
#48, I think you missed #41's point. She wasn't offended; she was simply saying it was wrong to beat anyone up for no real reason, probably because #39 was putting "guy" and "girl" in capital letters, so it did seem like she was saying that was more messed up. Then #39 replied again as #47 and cleared it up saying attacking anyone is wrong. More of a misunderstanding rather than #41 getting offended. Also, sorry if I made my comment confusing with all the numbers. I hope that doesn't lead to another misunderstanding. :P

#48, the comment doesn't have to help OP in any way because this is FML and we can say whatever we want, regardless if it's advice or a clever pun. The reason she gave the reverse scenario is because #39 explicitly pointed out that a man beat up a girl. She then followed with how devastating that was, saying he can't wrap his head around it. This makes it seem like a guy hitting a girl is the worst thing ever, making it worthier than other assaults.
shessohighh 10
I think what #39 was trying to say is that it's not something you see often. It's devastating when anyone fights but much rarer to see this situation.
sstahpp 33
Imagine seeing this play out before you. A guy walking up to a random girl(that HE mistook for another GIRL)and attacking her. Think about it. Anyone fighting is absolutely ridiculous..but this poor girl didn't even see it coming. This wasn't a random bitch fight where a few people got slapped around and then had a few beers after. This guy attacked this girl and actually tried to justify what he did by saying he thought she was someone else. Bullfuckingshit. Even if he had the right person you don't just attack someone from behind with or without a readon. And her being a girl and him being a guy makes this a bit worse in my eyes,you don't have to necessarily agree with that.(Sorry if I have bad grammar I'm not english)

that's going to be really confusing when that comes up on someone's random FML feed

It's Norway. No point in calling the cops. Those are the most incompetent beings on this earth. It took them years to find the killer of an 8 year old girl. Not because it was hard, but because they didn't want to work on the case and told everyone it was a suicide. Her phone was gone, the window was broken. Sorry, but these people are the worst and I've completely given up on them.
xDeadlyBlade99x 9
Yea true, and he thought she was another GIRL. Abuse, well honestly in my opinion, depends what she did. If it is cause she broke up with him then no. But if she killed his family or his dog. **** the bitch.

What kind of guy rips out people's hair? That's not how men are supposed to fight..
MzZombicidal 36
Pretty sure anyone is capable of ripping out hair...
daemonsparta 16
obviously you've never been in a street fight. anything is a handle to hold someone and punch their face in
may14th 26
Please report it
5secondsofvvifi 21
I know I would definitely report and press charges. Let's just hope OP will too.
karacakal2 30
Hope you called the cops on him and FYL. hope you will feel better soon
axfabxdisaster 25
That guy will probably do it to the guy he mistook you for, or others. Report it to your police immediately, OP
Megatron_Griffin 25
Actually it says a woman posted this...so this is some guy who ambushed a woman and will probably do it again. I already think it's a cowardly move to attack some one without giving them a fighting chance, but to be a grown ass man doing this to a woman is a whole new level of being a coward
Rkikkas9713 25
Women can stand up for themselves though, it doesn't matter if it's a man or woman. It matters that she was ambushed and didn't have a chance. OP, please report this to the police because someone else is in danger too! I really hope he gets what's coming to him.
emilyjgraham 34
I agree with 22. Plus OP could have gotten off 'lucky' compared to the woman she was MEANT to be. This guy could have been intending to beat her to within an inch of her life but realised OP wasn't who he thought. I really do hope he gets caught. To ambush like that with clear intention to wound the victim without being 100% you've got the right person is scary!
ThatHorse 15
To ambush with intent to wound is scary in most situations. The only time it's really acceptable is if that person is currently preparing to harm you or others in the same way. Or a worse way.
tdawg91 17
Call me sexist but an ambush is cowardly, an ambush on a woman is even more cowardly. I only say this because my partner is 6ft2, 110KG and in the army, I'm 5ft2, 48KG and a bartender. Do you think it would be worse for him to punch on with one of his mates of equal size and training or with me?
