Today, I realized that a classmate and I have the same glasses. To prove it, I tried bending his glasses, since mine are flexible and can bend. I snapped his glasses in half. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while I was normally and gently cleaning my glasses with my shirt they snapped in half. This is the second time this has happened, with the exact same glasses. The optometrist got me another pair last time, but this time they said no because it was too suspicious. I now have to buy $150 glasses again. FML
Today, I inadvertently gave passers by the middle finger as I tried to stop my glasses from sliding off my face. FML
Today, my students took my glasses, hid them from me, and called me a turtle when I squinted my eyes trying to look for them. This carried on for about 25 minutes. FML
Today, I was terribly late for class, so I rushed to the classroom door, thinking it was unlocked. I smacked face-first into the glass, and awkwardly fell to the floor. Once I got back up, I peeked through the glass, only to realise it wasn't even my class. FML
Today, my dad asked to borrow my glasses to look for his glasses. He then took them off because they were extremely tight on his head, and gave them back to me. Then he turned around and walked into a wall. I sure hope my eyes don't get that bad, although they probably will by the time I'm 40. FML
Today, before class I was trying to prove I can twist myself like the people on the front of my anatomy textbook, I got onto a table and twisted my ankles behind my head. Everyone seemed impressed until I farted so loudly that it echoed in the hallway. I couldn't get my legs unstuck. FML
Today, I spent almost 10 minutes cleaning my glasses because everything looked blurry. The problem wasn't my glasses. I was actually wearing my sister's, who apparently got almost the same frames as mine. FML
Today, in class my friend played a joke on me by pulling my seat from under me while i was about to sit. I fell and everybody laughed at me. During the next class, I did the same thing to him. He broke his arm. He was the star of the basketball team. Nobody laughed. FML
Today, I walked into the glass door of my boss’s cabin and broke my spectacles. Thank god for a backup pair, right? Wrong. I fell down the stairs and broke them too. FML
Today, I wore a pair of glasses with no lenses because I thought I'd look smarter. I ended up poking myself in the eye several times, leaving it swollen. So much for making me look smarter. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Were you being that adamant that you had to prove it to them? Seems a bit of a sad thing to prove. YDI and any bill that comes your way.

YDI for being a bully

#43 - OP wasn't being a bully... He clearly didn't intend to break the other guy's glasses. Who knows, maybe he was trying to make friends with the guy by trying to find common ground between them. Granted, next time he should use more common sense, but it's stupid to say that he was being a bully just based off of an FML.

Then I was about ten I hit a kid in the face with a snowball during an after school snowball fight. His glasses broke in like three places. His mom got really mad at me and told me that I was going to have to pay for them. That would have been in the neighborhood of six months of my 'allowance' at the time. I told her that he was throwing snowballs too and it was an accident. But since he was involved it wasn't my responsibility to replace them. They called my folks who backed my play. I later ended up wearing glasses and I can now see why she was so upset. I'd be pretty pissed if mine got broken. But if it was during a snowball fight that I was participating in, well, that's on me. Assumption of risk and personal responsibility have to start somewhere.

If they were exactly the same, he would've accepted it you wouldn't have to prove it!

I hope the next thing you did was buying him new glasses right away.

Why did you need to prove it by doing that? The frames may look the same but not all of them have the springs. My last glasses didn't have them but look exactly the same as what I have now. Even so, why did you bend them hard enough to break them? YDI

Hindsight is 20/20 so one should not need glasses to see this was a bad idea
