Today, while skiing, the creepy guy controlling the chair lift said I was pretty. I was so caught off guard that I fell off. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
Today, at a ski resort, I tried to impress an attractive girl on the slopes and failed, horribly. I ended up with a mild concussion and some serious cuts after tripping, tumbling and hitting my head against the ground. I don't think she was impressed. 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
Today, while waiting in line for the ski lift, the lady behind me kept stepping on my skis. Annoyed, I turned around and shouted at her, "Get the fuck off my skis!" Just as the last word escaped my mouth, I noticed that my skis were crossed and it was actually me stepping on them. FML
Today, I was skiing in Vermont for the third day straight. Since I was getting very little sleep, on the top of the chairlift I let out a huge yawn, pulling a muscle in my face. As I slid down the ramp, everyone saw me thrashing my head around and making funny, painful faces as I fell down. 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 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 snowboarding for the first time. I was so scared that I passed out. I was only on the kiddie hill. FML
Today, I was snowboarding when a skier cut me off, resulting in me colliding with a 12 year-old girl. The girl was totally fine, and I was alright except for a slight nose bleed. I apologized to the girl, then her mom hit me over the back with a ski pole as I snowboarded away. FML
Today, I went skiing with a friend of mine. He went first. I heard a loud *THUD* and went to investigate. When I went past him, he yelled, "I ran into a tree. I don't feel so good!" He said it in such a defeated and humorous way, that I crashed into a tree myself because I couldn't stop laughing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Did it catch you off guard because the only time a guy calls you "pretty" is when you look in the mirror and say it in a husky voice?

Overreaction much? Sounds a bit.... I don't know... bitchy. Were you oh so taken aback by a nice thing said because you're not used to being called pretty or is it because he's "creepy"? You should have just said thank you, smiled and enjoyed your skiing. Not embarass the poor guy. Just my two cents.

So only good looking non-creepy guys are allowed to compliment you?

Why do women get so offended when they get complemented on their looks? You spend hours trying to look just so, but when a guy walks by and acknowledges it you get offended.

Depends how it's done. When the old guy at the cookie place yells "hey baby looking good" everytime I walk by (which is frequent since its right next to the restrooms) it's creepy. When a customer walks into my job and asks what a pretty girl from England is doing in the states it's cute.

Not when you're skiing, though. Since you tend to look like an androgynous marshmallow with all that gear on, I can see why OP was surprised and creeped out.

Ur so right bro

Please do not complement the snow bunnies. :)

@81 Oh, that is bull. The fact is that girls, regardless of how old they get (because they sure as hell aren't women and definitely not ladies), get offended if someone they don't find attractive complements them. They say it is weird and creepy. This is because they expect only people they find attractive to look at them and think they are attractive. They have the mentalities of 3 year olds, who can't distinguish between their inner selves and the rest of the universe.
