Today, I was playing basketball outside in my driveway. I saw three cute girls walking by, so I thought I would try to show off a little by doing a backwards slam dunk. I jumped, completely missed the rim and hit my head on the backboard. Then my mom ran out to help me up. FML

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

why showoff? the likeliness of you making that is probably very slim. And i bet that hoop was on 8ft or something. ydi

Actually, it is possible to hit your head on the backboard. Blake Griffin, who is 6'8", hit his head twice while dunking it. He wasn't even in the NBA yet. Furthermore, I have seen Dwight Howard's head go over the rim. Finally, the greats of Julius Irving and Michael Jordan have 'kissed' the rim. Of course, the real game of basketball is not played on a 6 foot hoop.

8 foot goal probably...

Hahah sounds like my exboyfriend. He lives next door to me and would always show off by doing backwards dunks when a car would pass by when we would play basketball.

Which guy hasn't made a fool of themselves trying to impress a girl. Me that's who. I make a fool out of myself all of the time ;) and ydi op

I don't see how this would ever get you laid. Sorry YDI for being a tool.

What happened to talking to a girl instead of making yourself look like a complete moron? Oh, and YDI, OP.

I hit the YDI button as soon as I saw "show off." Anyone reading FML, AT ALL, should know attempting to impress girls with lame-ass physical feats that will only end in severe physical pain and humiliation anyway, is a bad ******* idea.
