Today, I went on a hike. It had snowed the night before so I wore warm clothes. They didn’t help when I slipped and broke my leg. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, it was snowing but I had to let my dog out, so I picked him up and carried him outside. I slipped, landed on him and ended up breaking his leg. FML
Steady as she goes
Today, I tried to walk on the sidewalk. Actually, it was so slippery that I had to shimmy across it. Then I shimmied too quickly and fell down. Now everything hurts. Maybe next time I should bring a sled. FML
Today, I walked in the snow and saw some kid slip. I laughed and felt good about myself. Then I fell. FML
Today, I was feeling depressed, so I decided to go snowboarding with friends to cheer myself up. I fell on the first trail and broke my dominant wrist. FML
Today, I had my first real break from work in ages, so I decided to go hiking. Less than 20 minutes in, I tumbled a couple hundred feet down a steep hill, broke my leg and several toes, and lay there in agony for an eternity before I was finally rescued. FML
Today, I went sledding with my friends. I said I was tired and didn't want to go, but they press-ganged me into it. I ended up sledding right into a tree, fracturing my leg, and scraping up my entire face. FML
Today, I jumped into a pile of snow which had built up against a wall. Turns out it wasn't snow but a pile of cement covered by an inch of snow. I now have a 3 inch cut along my leg and a sprained wrist from falling. FML
Today, I thought I'd wear my snow boots so I wouldn't slip on the ice at work. I crashed my car because I can't feel the pedals with my boots on. FML
Today, it snowed. So, a guy I like and I decided to go sledding. I really wanted to impress him by going down the hill and casually slowing down at the bottom right at his feet. Instead, I crashed into him and broke his ankle. FML
Today, I went skiing. Trying to show off to some inexperienced skiers, I flew past them at my top speed, a bracket snapped off my boot and I slid on my face for about 30 metres. FML

Today, i took the blue bag when i went shopping. That didn't help when they were out of my favourite cereal.

You knew it snowed, yet you still risked it for a hike. I wouldn't say YDI, but not exactly FYL.

They surely have helped when you were laying on the cold hard ground waiting for someone to rescue you and save you life.

Hmm, maybe they malfunctioned. If they’re still under warranty, I’d try to get them replaced with new ones. You’d think clothing manufacturers would thoroughly test the leg-saving abilities of their products.

Surprised anyone would hike in the snow if they didn't have to, but hopefully the break wasn't too bad

”Hey, I’m going on a hike.” ”Okay, break a leg!”

I hope you weren’t too far on your hike when you fell!

I think you were wearing the wrong shoes, but even with the right shoes there is always the chance of getting hurt while hiking. Either way I hope for a speedy recovery and hopefully you will be out their hiking again

Hopefully putting ice on it will- ...wait, hold on a second...
