Today, I went to go use an automatic cart in Walmart because I broke my hip in January. They were all being used by morbidly obese people throughout the store. I asked a manager if she could get me one, but apparently their weight issues are more impeding than my broken hip. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my lazy, obese mother took the last motor cart at the grocery store. My leg is in a cast. She told me to "use the shopping cart to help with the limp" as she rolled away. FML
Today, when I went to the shopping centre, the automatic door wouldn't open for me. I had to stand there and wait until someone else walked by to open it for me. I have dwarfism and this is a daily occurrence. FML
Today, I had to explain to a lady at Walmart that my mom, who is rather big-boned, actually suffers from fibromyalgia and arthritis, which is why she has to use motor carts. She didn't believe us, and called my mom "selfish". This is a common occurrence. FML
Today, being near-broke, I resorted to shopping at Walmart. Barely ten minutes in, an obese sack of lard posing as a human being shoved me away from the bacon I was looking at. I fell, busted my lip, then got screamed at by another woman for not watching where I was going. FML
Today, I drove my dad to Walmart to do some shopping. His leg is still in a cast after an accident, so I helped him to the last mobility scooter. A guy whose only disability was clearly Fat-Fuck Syndrome then yelled at us, claiming he needed it more and that my dad was a faker. FML
Today, I was in Walmart on a motorized cart and got stuck on a clothing rack next to a super hot guy. Panicking, I said "I just had surgery, I'm a new driver." After failing to get myself unstuck he had to pull the clothes rack and I apart. FML
Today, I was at Walmart. A guy in a mobility scooter bumped into me, then told me to "get the fuck out of the way." When I told him to watch his mouth, he got up and shoved me into a shelf. Just a few minutes prior, he'd yelled that he was paralyzed from the waist down. FML
Today, I walked into the gym to do legs and walked up to the leg press machine where a trainer was taking weights off. I asked him if he was about to use the machine and he gave me an odd look and said no, then walked back to his client who was in a wheelchair. FML
Today, my co-workers agreed that I was the one causing the elevator to be over its weight limit. When I protested, saying that I only weigh around 150 pounds, one asked me if that included the weight of my wheelchair. They made me get out. FML
Today, I ordered food at McDonald's. I'm on crutches, and a guy offered to carry my tray to the table. He rushed out with my food. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's happened to me before. Right after I got out of the hospital from surgery I had to wait after some fat ass who needed a motorized cart. People like that seriously don't give a shit. They looked at me and saw that I was probably more able to walk because I didn't have 300lbs hanging over my body.

Why do fat people need motorized carts? Can't they just like, roll?

Omg op, wow, did it hurt your feelings that you had to wait a little while? While I agree that SOME ppl have a problem with their weight that can be corrected with exercise and diet, maybe not all. Just curious, how did you break your hip, doing something active when you're a couch potato? I bet you're one of those ppl that would see a thin person in a cart and wonder what's so wrong that they need it more than you. It's called sympathy, have some sometime. You sound old and bitchy. Lol.

that totally sucks for you. maybe if those fatties would get up and walk through the store they wouldn't be as obese. come on...seriously...the majority of their weight issues probably come from being lazy asses

Make them ******* walk. They could use the damn exercise. It's alright for someone to be fat to a certain extent because some people just keep on a lot weight for no reason but that is pushing it.

In my opinion, everyone has the RIGHT to use one. Doesn't mean I think everyone SHOULD use one, but I can't look at someone and judge (unless its obvious) how badly the need the cart. Some people do genuinely have issues with their weight for whatever reason and yes some people are better off with taking a little longer and getting in some gentle exercise. But if they feel it is better for their health to take one then go right ahead. It's the people who use one, get off and walk around outside store area for 20 minutes with no hassle whatsoever that piss me off. And even though I wish the manager could have more power to say "look I saw you outside getting around fine and I have a lady with serious hip injuries may I have your cart?" but the amount of lawsuits, angry customers and fired employes that it would result in isn't worth it. If they had to have some sort of medical "badge" or something small to signify that yes they are considered disabled/in need of a chair by their doctor, then we wouldn't have problems as bad as this. Just like how to park in a disabled parking spot you need the proper sticker on your car (Or at least that is how it is where I live)

SAgirl - It's "sue" not "sew". That's twice I caught someone messing that up. They're two entirely different sounds, people!

That's coz they eat like cows and the store knows they're gonna by lots of food.
