Today, I went on a date with my boyfriend to our local park, and I playfully climbed into one of the baby swings. I planned on having him push me, not getting stuck and having to be cut free from the seat while he laughed. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went on a date with this really cute guy. We were walking in a park and decided to go on the swings. As I was swinging super high up, I threw up. FML
Today, I went to the park with a girl I like. She got playful and climbed a tree, insisting I come up too. While we were sitting and enjoying the view, she suddenly knocked me off the branch, sending me crashing to the ground. FML
Today, I went swinging with my friend at the park. Seeing a few cute guys playing basketball, I tried to act cute, laughing loudly and letting my hair fly all over the place. Just as they look over the swing broke. I fell on my face, my jeans sliding down, mooning them. They laughed hysterically. FML
Today, I went to the park with my friend and we decided to swing. While we were swinging, we decided to jump off backwards. All would have worked out fine if my pants hadn't gotten caught on the metal of the swing, leaving my bare butt exposed. The man who was in the park with his daughter left. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were in my backyard goofing around when he tried to pick me up. He couldn't. I jokingly tried to lift him. I did so without much effort. FML
Today, I finally got to see my boyfriend, after two months apart. As we hugged, he lifted me up and spun me around like in the movies. It would have been really romantic if I hadn't hit a little boy while he was riding past on his bike. I've just traumatized a little kid. FML
Today, my boyfriend wanted to take me out on a date. He doesn't have a car, but he said he'd borrow transport from his neighbor. He showed up at my house on a ride-on lawn mower. FML
Today, my friend and I went to the park. I bet my friend I could fit into the swing that was sized for toddlers. I managed to fit in, but I couldn't get out. My friend had to call 911 to get me out. When they finally did, the fireman told me that fat ladies shouldn't try stuff like that. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to the local park for some romantic time together. By the time we left, I'd been called a pedo and a cradle robber, and been given several dirty looks. I'm 31. My boyfriend is 30 and just very baby-faced. FML
Today, I was pushing my 4 year old on the swing. I did what we call our "under doggie push": I throw her up in the air while I run underneath her before she hits me coming back down. I walked away to get my water and she yelled across the park "Can we do it doggie-style again?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

maybe that's why it's called a baby swing

Are you a baby? It's hard to tell with all these 9 year olds running around calling their 'girlfriend' or 'boyfriend' the love of their life.

Did you at least have a good time?
feven 32
I doubt it.

probably

Her boyfriend sure did.

On the bright side, this could show you have a nicely shaped butt.

I think we're all missing the more important question here: "Did he get laid that night?"
MrCareless 17
Ouchh, that's too bad.. :( Good luck OP!

What? Did u read the FML? Good luck with what?

@ 76 - Underwear, definitely underwear.

Eh it could be worse
mariab2898 13
How? How could it possibly get any worse?
TheOnlyMizLiv 22
I can think of a lot of worse situations. I mean, she might be a little embarrassed, but no one was injured or anything... why so dramatic?

At least it wasn't raining.

*begins raining*

Of course it could be worse. It could always be worse, but that doesn't change that this situation was unfortunate. One could say "Today, both my parents died. FML" and you could still answer "it could be worse you could have cancer and and and"

It's called a "baby seat" for a reason, dip shit. YDI.

Well at least he had a good time??

Agreed, in size and apparently in mind as well.
IndicaPaincakes 28
Yeah, and what's wrong with being pushed in a regular swing? They are most definately more comfortable, and can swing higher.
boredgirl123 11
Seriously, do you know how stupid that is? you're obviously a little big to be getting in it, so why ruin something that wasn't even meant for you?
kylieh72 25
She was obviously just doing it in fun and probably did expect it to be funny, although certainly not in the way that actually happened.
SgtAssCheeks 21
Don't sweat it, OP, you're an adult on a baby swing, had that one coming to you!
PapaMoti 21
I would have laughed too.
TabooSushi 24
You know... There's a reason those things are made for BABIES. Congratulations on your nomination for a Darwin Award.
SgtAssCheeks 21
I doubt getting stuck on a baby swing is anywhere close to lethal or dangerous to your reproductive system (Darwinism is all about the gene pool).
TabooSushi 24
That is why I specifically said "NOMINATION" for an award, not that she had already won it, genius. I don't think it's too far off to extrapolate that someone dumb enough to get themselves stuck in a baby swing would also eventually be dumb enough to cause their own death through their stupidity.
joea21 21
Sadly I agree with the person above me. If you're dumb enough to get yourself stuck in a baby swing, what else are you dumb enough to do...
DemosthenesMB 13
Darwin Award nominees are survivors of stupid near-death experiences. Like those above said, getting stuck in a swing is hardly dangerous at all, and practically every adult/teen has at least TRIED to squeeze themselves into a swing before. Besides, getting stuck in a swing is far from a near-death experience.
SgtAssCheeks 21
I thought a Darwin award could also be given to someone who didn't necessarily died in an oblivious incident but could have injured them in a way that they were no longer able to reproduce, again, enhancing the gene pool, but I could be wrong.
sjbartholome 14
So remove the swing or pit of sharks? :D

They are, #53, but it's hard to think of an injury that would render a woman incapable of reproducing without rendering her dead. However, it's quite possible--although not very common--for a man to achieve the Living Darwin. I've read the books, what can I say? As for you, OP, what were you thinking? If you're old enough to be on the FML site, you're clearly too big to fit into one of those things. Were there not regular-sized swings in the park?
sdroze1389 31
I'm throwing my vote in with #53. if you can't reproduce and taint the gene pool, Darwin won.

Idk, I would laugh too, and I'm not shallow, so go easy on him. You'll look back one day and laugh as well.
