Today, while waiting for a bus, someone started smoking at the bus shelter, which is illegal in my city. I politely asked him to stop smoking, citing the city ordinance. He just cackled and said that if I'm so concerned about the state of my health, I should start by losing 90 pounds. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was yelled at for smoking at a bus stop, because a woman didn't appreciate me smoking by her children. She did this while waving her own lit cigarette in my face. FML
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
Today, some guy at the bus stop screamed at me because the bus was coming and I wasn’t wearing my mask. I was standing 25 feet from the stop finishing a smoke and there was no one around me. When I sat down on the bus, with my mask on, he stared me down the whole ride. FML
Today, I walked past a few of my coworkers sitting outside smoking. As I got a whiff of the smoke, I coughed. They immediately started to defend their habit, and I was told to "mind my own fucking business." I wasn't trying to be rude; I'm actually allergic to cigarette smoke. FML
Today, I was walking past a homeless guy while smoking; he asked if he could have a cigarette. So I gave him one and said without thinking, "Sorry, it’s a menthol, but beggars can't be choosers." FML
Today, a man in a hurry asked me for a light. Not being able to find my lighter amongst the muddle inside my handbag, I handed him my lit cigarette so he could light his. He took it from me, started smoking it and walked off. FML
Today, I was having a cigarette in a smoking area when a mother with a pram strode towards me and exaggerated a cough to make some sort of point. Reluctantly, I put it out and walked off. I then turned around to see her lighting up a cigarette, and blowing smoke all over her baby. FML
Today, I was walking down the street when I had a coughing fit. The next thing I know I'm being pushed about by a group of guys who were smoking, because they thought I was coughing deliberately to send them a message about smoking being bad. FML
Today, a homeless guy tried to light my hair on fire with a match at the bus stop. FML
Today, a stranger had a go at me for smoking while pregnant. I'm a guy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

While heart disease does kill more people than lung cancer, that guy was a prick.

It really is always fat people complaining about smoking. You inhaling some of my smoke isn't going to kill you faster than the McDonald's will.

I'm not fat and I complain about smoke all the time. It smells gross and it's harder to breathe when I'm around it.

That guy is a total asshole and so is everyone saying OP deserves this. How does she deserve this? The guy was illegally smoking, and spreading the second hand smoke to innocent bystanders, contributing to future lung cancer. Just because OP isn't the size of a super model doesn't mean she deserves to be treated like shit from some ******** who rudely smokes in the presence of others. And to people saying smoking won't kill you as fast as McDonald's will, guess what? McDonald's doesn't have second-hand calories; cigarettes have second-hand smoke, which causes more cases of lung cancer than first-hand smoke. I hope OP called the cops and described the guy to them so they can arrest/fine him for smoking illegally. I can't stand smoke...stupid nasty cancer sticks, I'd like to strangle whoever invented them.

Ugh that sucks, people do that here as well and it's the absolute worst. Especially if people nearby have lung/throat conditions. Smokers don't realise just how much they affect those around them.

Mind your own business. I'm not a smoker but I'm not about to tell someone to put one out while in an open space. Stand on the other side of the shelter wall if you don't like it. We fight for "freedom" but really we have none.
