Today, while running in the park, I noticed some ducks in a pond. I stopped to look at them and began quacking at them, to see if they would react. This would have been OK had I not been wearing ear-buds, blasting music, making me unable to realize just how loud I was quacking. With people all around. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had my earbuds in while walking to work. I was so into a particular song that I didn't notice I was singing out loud despite people being around. A random jogger gave me a thumbs-up and said, "Shit voice, wrong lyrics." FML
Today, I'm training for my first half marathon so I went for a run in a busy park. I tripped on a completely flat path in front of about twenty people. Not only did I fall, but my wireless earbuds flew out dramatically in opposite directions. Some wise ass golf clapped. FML
Today, I was at a pond taking pictures with my new camera. I saw a mama duck leading her babies around and decided to get in closer to take a picture. Mama duck got spooked and led her babies too close to a waterfall escaping. One fell off. It never surfaced. FML
Today, while I was working out, I was listening to music with my earbuds in. The Pokémon theme started playing and I begun singing along. It wasn't too long after that I remembered I was in a crowded gym on a military base. FML
Today, I tried meditating at the park to “be more mindful.” Right as I closed my eyes, a squirrel jumped onto my leg, causing me to scream loud enough to scare a nearby jogger, who then tripped over his own feet. I apologized while shaking uncontrollably. FML
Today, in order to try and get over my slight fear of swans, I went down to the local park to feed them. One decided that I looked tastier than the bread I was throwing and chased me around the feeding area while everybody laughed. FML
Today, my dad thought it would be OK to make sound effects for everything he did, in a public park, with me tagging along behind. FML
Today, I stopped at a park because a duck was following me. I assumed it wanted food, so I gave it a small piece of bread. It followed me to my car, waited beside the door, and then followed me across the parking lot. I may have accidentally adopted a duck. FML
Today, while on a run, I thought I'd run into a flock of geese in a field. Doing so, I learned that when you do this alone, the birds don't fly away, they attack. FML
Today, I wore my new noise-canceling ear buds in a grocery store and nodded along, getting into the groove. When I took them off at checkout, the cashier asked who I was talking to. I realized I’d been quietly singing to myself ASMR-style while making intense eye contact. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your spelling of "weird" is weird.

I think OP is funny. I would do that anyway, even if people noticed - who cares what they think?

17- I would say 1's spelling of "weird" was incorrect, but I kind of think the correct spelling of "weird" is weird. It doesn't follow the rules. English is weird.

I don't care what anyone thinks, I'll quack even louder when they start looking at me.

You couldn't understand yourself, so why do you think they would understand you?

I guess the OP and I are the only people who enjoy communicating with ducks. The rest of you are seriously missing out.

Why wouldn't it be? We are all a little weird, some more than others. Who cares?
Rei_Ayanami 18
Sort of embarrassing, but I'd do the same thing, just in a less crowded area.
SarahSunshine19 2
I agree. When people are around why would you even do that?! I understand if your with people you know, but random people, loud music, and making soud effects, bad combo.

Duck Woman to the rescue!

54, Quacking at ducks to "see if they react" is fun to you? I bet you also enjoy counting blades of grass and watching paint dry.
Samanthamkellyxo 2
Hahahaha
jagsville 8
It's not that funny. Give OP a break for living life and having fun.
Samanthamkellyxo 2
Oh common, anybody that reads FML's for anything other then a few laughs has no life. People on here are way too sensitive. Hahahaha

Those crafty animals forever laughing at me. Don't worry, one day we will get them. In the mean time let us twiddle our thumbs to a David Bowie poster.
