Today, while I was on the bus to work, a morbidly obese man sat down next to me. When my stop came and I stood up to get off, he just looked at me, said with a smirk, "good luck with that," and went back to reading his paper. I missed my stop. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was riding the public bus and a really fat, smelly guy sat next to me. He put his arm around my shoulder and asked me if I was single. My stop wasn't for three more miles. FML
Today, on the bus, a large smelly man was sat next to me, pushing me against the divider and sliding into me on every turn. When he got up for his stop, his pants had loosened and his bare ass was staring me in the face. FML
Today, a pregnant woman got on the bus. There were no free seats, so I stood up to give her mine. An obese man pushed past her, waddled over, and oozed into my seat. I said it was for the pregnant lady. He called me a "sexist bitch" and claimed he needed it more. FML
Today, I was on the London underground reading a newspaper. A huge guy was sitting next to me and there weren't many other people around. As I turned a page, he leaned into me, glaring, and said, "I'm not finished yet". At the next stop I put down the paper and jumped off. It wasn't even my stop. FML
Today, a total stranger on the bus called me hideous and threw a soda in my face. I only asked him if the seat next to him was taken. FML
Today, while on the bus, I found out the seat I'd taken was the preferred spot of a very hostile and extremely overweight freshman. Instead of letting me find different place to sit, she half sat on me, and completely ignored my attempts to dislodge myself all the way to school. FML
Today, while sitting in a handicapped seat on the bus, an old man angrily approached me and chewed me out in front of everyone for not leaving the seat empty for "those who actually need it." Then he stormed off the bus, stepping heavily on my broken foot. FML
Today, I was sitting on the bus and as I'm quite short my legs were dangling. Some guy, who wasn't looking where he was going, tripped over my foot and went flying. He and everyone else on the bus glared at me like it was deliberate. The man next to me even changed seats in disgust. FML
Today, a really cute guy sat across from me on the bus. He smiled at me, then tensed his muscles and lifted a heavy bag with one arm. Thinking he was trying to act "macho" to impress me, I rolled my eyes and threw him an annoyed/disgusted look. When he got off, I realized he only had one arm. FML
Today, I got on a bus that was so overcrowded I had to stand next to the driver with nothing to hang on to. A drunk man got on and for the rest of the half hour journey continuously fell on me. When I got off, he smiled and told me as the doors were closing, "The last twelve times was for fun." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What an asshole. You shouldn't sit next to someone if you're not at least gonna attempt to move when the bus arrives at your stop. That's just rude. It's one thing if, after sitting down, he attempted to get out of the seat and let you off, then jokingly said what he said, but to just sit there like you're long of the world is extremely douchey.

The man was finally fed up with the derision and demeaning attitude people have been giving him all his life. Obese doesn't mean out of shape and it isn't an automatic death sentence. You don't automatically get clogged arteries from weighing too much and the only malady proven to be linked to obesity is heart disease, which is also caused by stress. The single most beneficial thing you can do for your health is to walk, not lose weight. Had I been in your shoes I would not have been cowed by his surly attitude but would have simply climbed over the top of him. He gave you his permission.

Being morbidly obese does mean out of shape, and lets face it genius, this isn't a medical diagnosis. He doesn't know the guy, its an opinion of a layman on what he is visually seeing of some fat idiot. Considering this, we can safely assume he wasn't a bodybuilder or in any way in shape. You're also quite wrong in your diagnosis. We also know for a fact that the weight does cause issues such as inflammation and strain on organs and structure of the body. On top of this, the propensity for injury, and a fairly strong case for plenty of various chronic diseases.

@119: You think that just because people have been giving him shit all his life, that he can treat people the way he was treated? You think that just because I've been given shit to all MY life, that I'm going to be a rude bitch to other people? NO. Why the **** should I be mean to people that haven't done a thing to me? I can hold my head up high with pride knowing that I am a better person than those who seek revenge.

That is understandable. I am not discounting his actions and the fact that he was rude, but the fact that he's obese shouldn't be brought into it. There are just as many nice obese people and rude thin people. People shouldn't be making assumptions. I've been treated like crap, yet I still hold my head high and respect other people. I made my comments as politely as possible and all I was saying was that some people on here really need to learn how to be respectful towards others.

Sounds like the douchebag deserves the heart attack that's coming his way. You can smirk and think to yourself "good luck with that".

Should've walked over his fat ass and kept making a scene loud enough for the driver to hear you.

Would have said : "Yeah, good luck getting laid", just before walking on his fat belly, and head if needed
