Today, I inadvertently gave passers by the middle finger as I tried to stop my glasses from sliding off my face. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
How does that happen?
Today, I accidentally super-glued my hand to my face while trying to fix a broken pair of glasses. I yanked it off in a panic, taking a patch of my face along with it. FML
Sorry Sharon
Today, I tried to high-five someone but somehow ended up slapping them in the face. FML
Today, I was using the restroom at work when my glasses slipped off my face and landed right in the toilet. FML
Played a blinder
Today, I felt something hit my eye as I was riding on my bike. My glasses ended up falling off. I looked for them for ten minutes before giving up. I ran over them. FML
Today, after a badly misjudged hand signal, I accidentally hit my boss in the face instead of high-fiving her. FML
Fight! Fight!
Today, I accidentally slapped myself in the face with my belt when I pulled it from my belt loops too quickly. FML
Multitasking
Today, I managed to multitask too much at work. I turned around, adjusted my glasses, swept hair out of my face, and blinked. In the process, I walked into my manager, causing me to simultaneously punch myself in the mouth. FML
Tricked
Today, I did the "suck your finger" trick in the car to prevent my lipstick from getting on my teeth and halfway locked eyes with a random dude outside. FML
Charming
Today, I was walking across a pedestrian crossing and waved at the driver of the car who'd stopped, just to say thank you. She stuck her middle finger up at me. FML
Today, I got into the shower with my glasses on by mistake. I spent 5 minutes convinced that the fog in my vision was me going blind. FML

That was you?! Oh, I was ready to kick your ass, ma'am. Appreciating these anger management classes about now.

I do it all the time without thinking, when my sunglasses are loose. Nobody ever seems to notice or care. I wouldn't beat myself up over it if I was OP.

I don't think many people would notice what finger you used, and most of the ones that did are very unlikely to have cared. And if someone did take offense, that's absurdity on their part.

<p>2 options</p> <p> </p> <p>1. You can play it off like Mr. Bean in the movie and make it seem like you're greeting someone.. or instead of a greet, how bout a salute.</p> <p> </p> <p>2. A salute as in The Stone Cold salute. People will appreciate you for being confident with this new demeanor.</p> <p> </p> <p>*Results may vary. Not liable for injury or death.</p>

Read the disclaimer fast in that man's voice I hear on tv and radio.

<p>My mom used to do it all the time. Navigate or do things woth her middle or ring fingers and I'd ask her nicely to not. It was so ingrained to me that the normal way to do that stuff was with the pointer finger, and that the middle was bad. It still annoys me for those reasons. (seems wrong and also rude) But OP's situation might be a more legitimate good reason not to do it. </p>

God.. I do this way too much.. But I've kinda just started to go with it, you know, adding a smile on my face while doing it just to show that I'm not an asshole. I'm a smiling asshole.

<p>OP here. I'm not someone who swears or constantly uses my middle finger on purpose. I was walking to my local mall, one day, and my sunglasses were falling off my face so, without thinking, I used my middle finger to push them back up onto my face and it stuck. Whenever I used my middle finger for something without thinking, it doesn't bother me but I always wonder if someone saw it and thought I was flipping them off. </p>
