Today, I went to pick a penny off of the ground for good luck. Someone kneed me in the butt, I fell face first and broke my glasses. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I broke my glasses. How did I break my glasses? A cow kicked me in the face at work. FML
Today, I was standing in the bathroom and farted. It felt like someone stabbed me in the butt. I jumped out of shock, and my head slammed into the mirror. My glasses fell onto the floor and broke. I now need new glasses, a new mirror, and an ice pack for my head. All because I farted. FML
Today, I walked into the glass door of my boss’s cabin and broke my spectacles. Thank god for a backup pair, right? Wrong. I fell down the stairs and broke them too. FML
Today, I was going shopping with a friend. I got up to get off the train and landed on my ass. Not only had I walked into the metal bar, I'd broken my $800 glasses, and the train doors had closed, with my friend on the other side of the doors. FML
Today, I was using the restroom at work when my glasses slipped off my face and landed right in the toilet. FML
Today, I felt something hit my eye as I was riding on my bike. My glasses ended up falling off. I looked for them for ten minutes before giving up. I ran over them. FML
Today, my boss and I were stacking boxes in the back room of the store. One of the boxes fell and hit me in the face, causing me to lose my glasses. My boss stepped on my glasses as she ran to check the box for broken merchandise, which I then had to pay for. FML
Today, I dropped some glass at my job while putting it on the shelf. A shard bounced off the floor and went up my nose. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs while holding some dirty glasses from my room. I ended up pulling pieces of glass from my body. Meanwhile all my mom cares about is the fact that I broke three of her favorite glasses. FML
Today, while scrubbing my car with the foam brush at a car wash, the hose for the brush came whipping around and smacked me hard in the side of the head, knocking off my glasses. I got disoriented from the blow and stepped on my glasses, completely smashing them. FML

Don't worry I'm really unlucky too... Happens to everyone! :)

A similar thing happened to me. I found $50 on the floor at a nightclub. I picked it up, and as I was getting up someone walked into me, causing me to drop my phone and shattering the screen... Which cost $120

No, no it doesn't happen to everyone. Most people would assess the situation and determine that when there are people walking behind you, you don't stop to pick up a penny.

I'm just saying that it happens to a lot of people and a lot of shit happens to me... :/

Well 28, you don't represent 'a lot of people'. Unless you're hella fat, and your weight counts for 'a lot of pwople'

Shit, *people

@28: You can actually, mathematically show that the time it takes to pick up a penny is not worth 1 cent.

I apologize for the improper grammatical structure of my comment. I didn't know I was stating my PhD thesis.

Better to break your glasses instead of your nose or teeth. Silver lining?

How did it make you feel? A penny for your thoughts. I'd recommend picking yourself up, dusting yourself off, and laughing about the whole thing. But that's just my two cents.

A penny for your thoughts, but a dollar for your insights. Oh, a fortune for your disaster.

A penny isn't worth picking up.

I pick up pennies off the floor because the word "God" is on it.

#30 -- actually a penny is worth picking up. I pick up any and all coins I see on the ground, put them in a jar at home and every year, the week before Christmas I cash them in. Last year I got $116 bucks, most of it in pennies. So, it's worth it!

maybe thats why the last person dropped the penny

You must of picked the penny tales up, that's bad luck.
murdersquirrel 15
