Today, someone stole the massive pumpkin I've been painstakingly growing all year. What did they do with it? They put it in the middle of a busy intersection. FML
dagreatpumpkin tells us more.
The pumpkin was for a contest. It weighed in at over 500 LBS. No-one was hurt by it being in the intersection, only vehicle damage. Cuplrits have been found and charged with Meyham, 2 counts of Grand Theft (one for the pumpkin, and one for a forklift), Criminal Trespass, and Vandalism. Cinderella, didn't make it to the ball.

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Wow, nice job on growing the pumpkin! So sorry that some idiotic jerks stole it (and your possible win) from you!

The replies to bad first comments are almost more annoying than bad first comments.

Is anyone else wondering how OP knew what the theif did with the pumkin?
Comet_Candy 23
He probably saw the remains of his beloved pumpkin in the nearby intersection... What a tragedy!!

Not a good pumpkin. The Great Pumpkin.

I now have a goal for next year... I'm going to grow a huge ass pumpkin.

Reminds me of the 'Hey Arnold!' episode where Stinky grew the giant pumpkin.

Aww ... I am sorry for that :(

Don't be thick, 16. If someone offered condolences on the death of a loved one, would you shout "Murder!" as well?

27) I believe that penguin was joking. The way the apology was written made it sound like she stole the pumpkin. "I'm sorry for that" could mean "I'm sorry I stole your pumpkin." Therefor, it seem Penguin took this as an opportunity to make a witty joke that seemingly went right over your head. At least, that's what I got out of this whole ordeal :D

In order for it to be a witty joke that went over 27 head it'd have to first be witty. However for you to perceive this as witty I really must question your mental capacity as well.
raraisbang 12
I didn't perceive it at a witty joke, I said Penguin used it as the opportunity to make it a witty joke, meaning Penguin might've thought they were making a witty joke. My entire comment was situational; maybe Penguin did, in fact, think that 4 was the pumpkin thief.

I'm wondering where he found the time to do it and how he did put it in the middle of a busy intersection.
Qandol 26
Maybe it wasn't he, who stole the Pumpkin, maybe the Pumpkin run itself and got stuck in the middle of the road, when seeing a lots of car running towards it. You know like one of those scary movies.
P374RD3D 9
I have never seen a movie where a pumpkin got up and ran into the street.

How did he manage to put a giant pumpkin in the middle of a busy intersection, was nobody wondering what the hell he was doing?
TheEpicPies 15
The question is: how did he put the pumpkin in the middle of the busy intersection without getting hit by a car?!
Quinn32 16
Why did the pumpkin cross the road? It didn't. It got stuck in the middle.

"busy itersection" Translation: he smashed it.

50 - The answer to the question in your profile picture is that you have succeeded in failing. That's all..
loloalltheway 23
the thief probably just rolled it out or put it there at night when there weren't so many cars out.
JustAnotherKid4U 5
This is the greatest thing I have ever read hahaXD
sarah6786 14
Really? So when someone hits it and causes a major accident in which people get hurt, it would be awesome?
mfischer 17
7 - I recommend Tolkien, Hemingway, or just about anything at your local bookstore. Trust me, they're all a lot more entertaining than an FML.
JustAnotherKid4U 5
Haha agreed. A book is more entertaining. But its really pThetic people cant see the humor in putting a giant pumpkin in an intersection.
bingababe 16
I find the people who CAN find the humor in endangering peoples lives pathetic. But that's just me.
Soloman212 28
69- Humor is always at someone's expense. Car accidents usually aren't funny, but one ring caused by a giant pumpkin in the middle of a busy intersection is. At least to me.
bingababe 16
"Usually" aren't funny?? I'd say car accidents are NEVER funny. But again, that's just me.
NoFlippinWai 24
I kind of see the morbid humor. Imagine that Insurance call: "Hi. I have a claim to file. No the damage is only to my car. I hit a stationary object. No. No. It wasnt a pole or anything. I was a giant pumpkin that was in the middle of an intersection. My fault? What?" Or the calls to the police: "Uh hi, there was just a giant pumpkin that appeared in this uh intersection. No. Not Kidding. Serously. Stop Laughing."

You can still buy one.
BeaterOfTheDrums 15
One does not simply buy a massive(possibly prize winning) pumpkin.
Dixbfloppin 11
It's not the same.

Was there a Smashing Pumpkins show nearby? Their fans are too literal.
Psych101 9
Let's just hope OP isn't a literal fan of Avenge Sevenfold, or the culprit(s) may be the one(s) in the middle of the road next time...
Cartera 10
Avenged Sevenhold has some pretty ****** up songs.
TrueTriage 16
Mix it with 36 Crazyfists and five finger death punch and the guy who stole the pumpkin just dug their own grave

Watch out for the Butthole Surfers. They might go find your iPhone!

And Queens of the Stone Age. I suffered several concussions.

Find out who it was, pick up all the pumpkin and scatter it all over their lawn. :3
