Today, on my first ski run down a mountain, I dislocated my patella. Now I get to watch out of the window as my family builds a snowman and names it after me. 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, after months of begging, I finally convinced my friends to go skiing with me. On our first run I suggested a race. Everybody loved the idea. Good news: I came in first. Bad news: I tore a ligament in my knee. It will be operated on tomorrow. FML
Slippery slope
Today, I went skiing for the very first time and spent more time falling down than actually skiing. Despite the fact that I'm up here in the mountains for another week with my family, I'm never trying that again. 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 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 fractured a bone in my knee. Now not only do I have to wear a huge knee brace for the next two months, I'll have to sit around in a hotel room all of next week while my family has fun skiing in the mountains. FML
Today, I went skiing. On the first run of the day, a little girl came out of nowhere and crashed into me. I was fine, but she was hurt, so I called the ski patrol. She told him that I deliberately hit her, and got me kicked out. I was there for 10 minutes. I paid for all day. FML
Absolute beginner
Today, I went snowboarding for the first time. I was so scared that I passed out. I was only on the kiddie hill. FML
Today, I was skiing really fast and there was a sign saying 'Slow Down'. Feeling rather good about myself I decided to jump over the sign. Whilst jumping, however, I caught my ski tips on the sign and went face first into the ground. Hard. FML
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
Today, while skiing down a steep mountain, a man ran over my skis, causing me to fall and roll down the slope. When I regained my balance, I saw the man had followed me just to say "How graceful" and continue on. FML

"then you took an arrow in the knee" never seemed so fitting

I think the "2011" part doesn't fit into this FML, but I can see what you're getting at.

"I used to be a vacationer like you, but then I took a ski to the knee"

hate to be the bearer of bad news but that means said person got married :( but hey we can pretend right?

Saying you took an arrow to the knee does not actually mean they got married. The question was posed to the man who made that line, he meant a literal arrow hit then in the knee, causing serious and irreparable damage, causing then to be a guard.

That's unfortunate but at least your family are having a good time and you have a window.

I cringed, mostly because I've dislocated my patella 3 times already, and am now in need of surgery to fix the problem - so I know the pain ALL too well. Hope you recover quick OP.

I'm not the biggest fan of Frozen, but I loved Olaf :)

I hope you get well soon. Try to enjoy the rest of your vacation.

With someone who actually has a condition which causes my patella to dislocate continuously over the slightest thing, I feel your pain. Honestly though, I think it would be much worse for you, as it isn't a regular occurrence. Hope you're alright
