Today, I learned that chivalry truly is dead when a seemingly fit man pushed me into a door to get a seat on the train before me. My leg is in a cast. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got on the subway with a broken leg. A kind woman stood up and offered me her seat. Before I could sit down, a guy shoved past me and took it for himself. The woman and I pointed out my cast and crutches, and asked him to give up the seat. He responded by flipping us off. FML
Today, I held a door open for my boyfriend and jokingly said, "Chivalry is dead?" He responded with, "Who's chivalry?" FML
Today, on my way to school, I was shouted at by an obnoxious businessman for sitting down on the train when a "full fare paying passenger" was standing. I would normally have given him the seat straight away, except I have a broken leg. I showed him my leg and crutches. He still made me get up. FML
Today, I was brutally run over by a man in a wheelchair. FML
Today, a man slapped me in the face with his newspaper because I didn't get out of his way fast enough at the train station. I guess he didn't notice I was on crutches. FML
Today, I went out on a date with a girl for the first time. I opened her car door for her and then slammed her leg in it upon closing. She will be in a cast for 6 weeks. FML
Today, I was told off for not holding the door open for a woman behind me at work. Yesterday I was informed that chivalry is offensive to women, as it implies that they are not equal to men. I can't win. FML
Today, I had to cut short my New Year's resolution of going to the gym daily, when the meathead next to me dropped some heavy weights, which bounced and landed on my foot. I'm sitting at home in a cast. FML
Today, I ran for the train that was about to leave. I tried to hold the doors open with my leg and got stuck. The conductor just yelled out how unbelievable and ridiculous I was and waited 2 minutes to finally release me. Everyone was laughing at me. FML
Today, while sitting in a handicapped seat on the bus, an old man angrily approached me and chewed me out in front of everyone for not leaving the seat empty for "those who actually need it." Then he stormed off the bus, stepping heavily on my broken foot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

he was probably in the beautiful people club. you aren't, and therefore are a second class citizen.

WTF that doesn't mean he couldn't have opened the door for her instead of being a total jerk about it and rush by ... you're looking at this situation completely wrong -_-

And being shoved out of the way when you're already visibly injured relates to equality how, exactly? Dumbass.

Simple, he treated her like a guy.

If i saw a guy in a cast walking slowly id pass him or push him out of the way to get my bitchin' as **** next to the window first out the door no one sitting next to me seat. Id do the same to a woman, why? Cause this is America where everyone is equal!

What a douchenozzle! I think you would have been justified to shove your cane down his throat our break it across his face...since shoving you seems to be the only language he understands

ok question...are you saying that your leg was already in a cast? or that his actions put your leg in a cast? little confused on that one. I immediately thought it was the 2nd one but a previous post said the 1st one so not quite sure...

I wondered the same thing. I think the OP probably had the cast before though.

there are rights an majority of guyz that like dick well treat girls like shit, no curtesy in this world. He probably running late for something so he probably thought he owns everything so people like them deserve to be late just like people on the freeway speeding to get to work on time that's why I well get in the fast lane an drive as fast as the car next to me an listen to him honk his horn for me to move or get of his way sorry punk not in a hurry so tail gate all u want...
