Double down

By Dani_Rich - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was pulled over by a motorcycle cop for speeding in a 25 MPH zone. As the cop was walking towards my car, I flicked my cigarette butt out of my window. So, the cop did me the pleasure of writing me two tickets instead of one. FML
I agree, your life sucks 14 035

In general, when I find out someone smokes, my respect for them drops. Hugely. Likely due to the fact that I've seen first hand, people I love dying because of it. Smoking to begin with is stupid. Speeding in a 25mph means you were in a residential area and likely there were kids in the neighborhood, again stupid. And finally, literring out your car window as a cop is walking up to it, stupid idea number 3. 3 Strikes and you're out. Your life is only "******" becuase of your own stupid decisions.

Flicking your bud out of your car is illegal. it's called litering

OH MY GOD EXACTLY thank you for saying that that's exactly what I was thinking.

hey douch, just cuz there a smoker doesn't mean there bad, it just means they made a bad decision in there life. my best friends mom Is a smoker and she is a very respectful person. she quit but she got hooked again. so stfu and get ur crumb of a brain some common sense befor u bash on people who smoke. I don't smoke nor will I ever but people who smoke aren't bad. they made a bad decision, that's all.

I have to say, you have no life. plain and simple.

I agree with him for the most part. The comments about smoking isn't fair because not all people that smoke are bad, but I understand where he is coming from. But this dude that posted the FML made some dumb mistakes.

Good. You totally deserved that one, buddy.

Keep your butts in the car. Same thing that happened in Australia happens in Texas all the time too. It's easy to start a fire with burning ashes. Plus, to non smokers, when they see the burning ashes fly on the road from the person in front of them flicking their butt out the window, it makes you look like a self-absorbed jackass.

That's no one's fault but your own for being careless and stupid. Seriously. I'd sympathize but it's just incredibly stupid.

Wow, I can't even feel bad for you. There's a reason certain areas have certain speed limits, sounds like you were in a residential area and you're a real d bag for speeding. I know I grow angry when people speed in my neighborhood, I have an outdoor cat and there are plenty of children. There is also many reasons why you shouldn't throw your cigarette butts out of the window, especially in front of a cop. You should feel really embarrassed. You're a little slow, aren't you?

#13, just because it's legal doesn't mean it's a good thing. My respect for a person drops as well when I find out they smoke, because 99% of them are inconsiderate enough to not care who they smoke around. I don't hate them, but it's a disgusting activity to partake in. But that has nothing to do with this FML. It doesn't matter what you threw out the window. You sped in a 25mph zone, likely where kids play, and you littered. Glad to see justice served.
