Today, I was in a car accident, two days before Christmas. I'm now laying at home, not able to walk. My whole family thinks that I'm joking. A car drove over my foot, I'm not joking. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a car was waiting for me to cross the street so I thought it would be funny to slowly limp across the street. When I got to the end, I jumped as high as I could to show I was faking. Turns out I tripped and hit my head hard on the sidewalk. That car took me to the hospital. FML
Today, my family and I were burning our Christmas tree. For a laugh, my dad jokingly pushed me toward the fire. I tripped, and my doctor says the burns are probably going to scar. FML
Today, I was joking around with my manager about faking an injury to collect Worker's Compensation. Then I actually slipped and sprained my foot, and now my manager thinks I'm lying. FML
Today, I didn't feel like going to work, so I called in sick. Five hours later while out shopping, I got hit by a car at a crosswalk. Now I'm laid-up in the local hospital, really wishing I was with the guys at work. FML
Today, I decided to take my girlfriend out to look at Christmas lights and get hot chocolate. While cleaning my snow-covered truck, I slipped and broke three bones in my ankle, and now need surgery. FML
Today, while walking to work, I sneezed so violently that I slipped on a patch of ice and hit the ground hard, badly spraining my shoulder. I lay there in agony as a pair of bystanders just stood there, laughing their asses off. FML
Today, I fell over on the bus. X-Rays revealed not only that I have been growing extra bones in my foot, but that when I fell, I crushed all of them. Doctors don't know how to fix bones that aren't supposed to be there, so they're just going to cut them out. Two days before Christmas. FML
Today, after my at-the-time partner got in a car wreck with minimal injuries, I drove two hours and got a week off classes to take care of them on hand and foot, they are currently my platonic roommate and I nearly broke my foot… and they keep acting annoyed when I ask for something because I can't walk. FML
Today, my boyfriend knocked into me with his car. I drove myself to the hospital because he couldn't stop laughing long enough to drive. FML
Today, I called the campus police to give me a ride to the cafeteria since I am on crutches from knee surgery. I was only halfway into the car when the man started driving and ran over my foot. Now neither my right knee or my left foot work. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

My uncle broke a bone when a car ran drove over his foot several years ago. I hope you at least went to the hospital to make sure how much damage has actually happened.

My friends mom got her foot run over by a car too once. She was pretty sore for awhile and had to stay off it for a few days. Hope nothing's broken and that it heals quickly!

Were you in an accident or did a car run over your foot? Not to say getting your foot run over isn't a big deal, but I don't think that's the same as being in an accident.

You think he had the car run over his foot on purpose?

#23, probably not, but people usually tend to think of accidents as a car crash, rather than simply someone running over your foot.

I wanted to say something but I didn't want to seem like a bitch. I think of two cars crashing into each other when I hear "car accident." I don't think running over a foot is the same either,

Maybe you should show them your hospital records?

OP shouldn't have to prove them anything. They are their family, after all. Kind of dickish for them to not believe the OP.

OP, you really should go to the doctor and get some X-rays on your foot, if you have not already done so. Forget about your family, if they actually think you're joking about this, screw them. The thing I would be concerned with is is anything is broken. I think I remember learning in grade school that there are like 200 hundred bones in each of your feet and hands.(?) Just in case, if any of them are broken, you want to make sure that they heal properly. Sorry OP. :(

256 or so bones in a human adult total, so i think that number is a bit high, but there are alot xD

I've had 2 cars drive over my for before... it really doesn't hurt that bad

Depends how and where they roll over you. If it's over a big joint it'll definitely **** it up and hurt a lot.

Such a badass.

Post a picture of your foot on Facebook. Then, if they accuse you of joking, they'll seem like the assholes when everyone realizes the truth.

Quit bitching Julie. We all know you're faking to get out of the family Christmas party

Ouch. Don't let your family get to you and try to enjoy your holidays!
