Today, while at school, some jerk shot me in the foot with a BB gun. While in agonizing pain, I yelled, "FUCK" as loud as possible. A teacher walked by, oblivious to the fact I had just been shot with a BB gun and wrote me up for, "Disrespectful language". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to take my son to the emergency room for shooting himself in the ass with a BB gun. FML
Today, I got in trouble for shooting my paintball gun at a piece of wood, so my dad told me to go wash it. While I was washing it, he shot me several times in the back, yelling, "That's payback for being born." FML
Today, I broke my toe and screamed, "Fuck!" My mom heard and yelled at me for swearing, while I laid on the floor in pain. FML
Today, while sitting in a waiting room, a man assured me, "The safety's on" after he handed his kid his BB gun. A minute later, I practically had a hole in my foot. FML
Today, I had various items thrown at me all day at school, one one of which was a ruler that landed flat on my back where I had blistered and peeling sunburn. I yelped, "Motherf***er!" because of the pain, and I was the one given detention. FML
Today, I was watching my cousin shoot at targets on hay bales with his plastic pellet BB gun. After my sister asked him if it would hurt to be shot with one, my cousin smiled at her and said, "Ask your sister" as he shot me in the leg. I think my screaming was obvious enough. It hurts. FML
Today, I saw my neighbor's delinquent kid shooting squirrels with a BB gun. Shocked and furious at his cruel behavior, I told him to stop, with the threat of telling his parents. He responded by shooting me in the nuts and running away in a fit of laughter. FML
Today, I was babysitting my neighbor's kid. We were playing in the yard, when he fell and got a small scratch on his leg. I gasp, and he takes a huge breath in and yells, "FUUUCK!!!" as loud as possible. The parents thought it was me, and the mother slapped me in the face. FML
Today, I accidentally slammed my leg against the coffee table. It was only after I went to the bathroom a few minutes later that I realized there's now a massive gash on my upper leg. I also got in trouble for yelling, "SON OF A BITCH!" as soon as the impact occurred. FML
Today, I went to the gun range for a birthday and got shot in the foot by my mom. FML

Not sure where you live OP, but if you live in the US, that kid could get into serious trouble bringing one of those into school. If you know the kid report him to school security and he should be at least suspended for a while, if not, he'll be dealing with the police.

Did the teacher not do anything to the bbgun kid? If she didn't, I would be concerned about school shooters

Pretty sure the kid with the BB gun will get into more trouble than you... A lot more trouble. Plus, how come it hurt so much? I mean it's only a bob pellet... Were you bear footed or something???

Why on earth did you tell 'as loud as possible'? If it was for attention then YDI

Idk where you live OP but in the US guns in school is heavily not tolerated. In schools you can't even bring a toy gun! idk if this was here in the Us, but your school should've went into lockdown the moment that kid brought the BB gun in

If you live in the US you can report him to the school resource officer (SRO) he most likely will end up in a lot of trouble, or he could get expelled.

At some times you don't snitch. But this would have been a good time to snitch

If you're at a public in the us they can't do a thing against you because they have to respect the right of freedom of speech.

Ok clearly there's the issue of why did a kid just have a BB gun in school and receive no (known) consequences, but I'd like to stray from the obvious and ask why he even brought it in the first place.. Like he just woke up one morning, saw his BB gun and thought "That kids foot isn't gonna know what hit it"

Yelling is a reflex but WHAT you yell is a learned response. The word or sound is just a habit. For example Americans say ouch but in Japan you say itai! (Short for itaidesu- it hurts) So you do control what you yell or if you make any sound at all. You can easily teach yourself to deal with pain silently by internalizing it. Or with just a small grunt or groan . (Severely abused people, special forces soldiers and early native Americans ... ) If everyone is honest cussing is a habit the more you do it it gets harder to stop until you're cussing all the time. But what you say IS a choice. The teacher should have just said "watch your language young man" and bb boy get in serious trouble! What happened to zero tolerance? I have to admit sometimes Cursing is just more satisfying . :)

Somehow I think you would do the same thing as the teacher. Given that, you know, you completely missed the point of the FML for the first 3/4ths of your comment. OP's swearing wasn't the big issue here, the GUN on school property was.

Wrong. I was commenting on/to the comments people were making. That's why I threw the last bit in to make sure no one thought I didnt understand the larger and obvious point. I was sharing an interesting fact and supporting the side that were saying yes he could have moderated his outburst. I would have done exactly what I suggested the teacher do or I wouldn't have taken the considerable effort to write it out or it even occur to me. Everyone gets a couple chances with me as long as no one gets hurt. Sending a kid up for one bad word is proof of a teacher that can't do his/her job.
