Today, I was out for a walk, wearing a T-shirt with a fist on it and the words "Bump it." A guy came up to me, looked at my shirt, shrugged, and punched me in the stomach. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I tried to give my friend a fist bump. He thought I was trying to punch him so he punched me in the face. FML
Today, on the way to work, I was punched in the balls by a complete stranger. 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, while I was standing in line at the store, some guy insulted the girl in front of me as he walked past. She turned around and socked me in the face. FML
Today, a man pulled me violently into an alleyway and informed me I was being mugged. Being a body-builder, I said, "Oh yeah? Go on then." He kicked my ass in a matter of seconds, stole my wallet, then farted on my bruised face. He called me a wimp. FML
Today, I was walking home, when I saw a homeless man trying to tear the wallet out of another guy's hand. I can't stand bums, so I smacked him across the jaw. That's when the other one kneed me in the balls and made off with my wallet as well. FML
Today, I fistbumped a cashier as they tried to hand me my change. FML
Today, I was walking home when a stranger came up to me and told me to give him a good reason why he shouldn't punch me in the face. I guess none were good enough. FML
Today, I saw a girl with the same shirt as me. I excitedly pointed it out. She punched me in the face. I didn’t think people actually got mad about that. FML
Today, I was showing some new karate moves in the park to my friends. I mimed a punch behind a girl walking past to show my technique and control, but she must have seen me. She turned around and kicked me in the stomach. To add insult to injury, her technique was better than mine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Ah yes. Wearing a t-shirt is most certainly deserving of physical pain.

He maybe should have expected it because people are stupid, but he didn't deserve it in the least.
zBLAKEz 23
I still don't understand how he should even expect it. You shouldn't have to worry about being assaulted simply because you wore a stupid shirt, regardless of how shitty people are.

He was just following instructions OP.

Unless you're in New York, where New Yorkers have a lust for blood and are known to track the scent of prey from up to 10 miles away

Wearing a cool shirt means I should get punched in the stomach? What a wonderful world we live in.

He obviously didn't deserve it but stop being such a ****** mate

Ahh.. and i suppose that the girl in the short skirt and top showing cleavage should have "seen it coming" when she got raped, because... you know... what you wear determines how others should act toward you? No, you don't think that, because the victim isn't to blame.

If only all the people who are against victim blaming were against it in more than just cases of rape.

How did this go from a dude fist bumping someone's stomach to the whole rape discussion. leave that shit out of here, you're not getting anything accomplished on FML. take it to the real world

It wasn't about rape? It's about saying that it's somebody's fault if a stranger punches them just because they wore a shirt they didn't like. I'm just pointing out that so many people are violently anti victim blaming on the subject of rape, but when it comes to anything else in life then it's somehow always the person's fault when bad shit happens to them. Just taking note of the inconsistencies in people who are against victim blaming.

There is a huge difference in victim blaming for rape and this. Most rape vics weren't wearing shirts that explicitly requested rape. If your shirt is requesting fistbumps don't be surprised if someone eventually does it. And some of us fistbump pretty hard.

Since when does anyone fist bump with the same force as a punch? It'd be fine if the guy actually fist bumped the shirt, but he just used it as an excuse to punch him. Which is why it's being compared to victim blaming.

Would be something i could have done, but i would bump it gently.

I don't know why everyone's down voting you, that makes sense. It says "bump it" not "punch it".
KatVa 23
Wtf #1 and #2.. It says bump it, not punch it.

Step 1: Do a fist bump. Step 2: Now do it again, but faster.

He must've taken it as a invitation.

What the ****...I hope you punched him back

In this world containing the people it has, what did you expect?
