Miscellaneous: People like who?

People like who?

By howembarrasing - 19/04/2009 20:49 - United States

Today, I went to the sandcastle contest at my local beach. While waiting in line for a hotdog, a man cut in front of me and demanded a cup of water. I called him a jackass, saying how people like him give us a bad reputation at the beach. I then saw him running to his choking daughter. FML

Today, I was trying to relax on the beach after a stressful day, just to overhear a bunch of kids near me start fighting over who pooped in the hole they'd dug in the sand. FML

Today, I was at the pool when I saw a man eating the food I had ordered near my seat. I immediately ran up to him and asked him to stop stealing my food. I took the food away and threw it in the trash. Seconds later the attendant came out with my actual food. FML

Family vacation!

Today, at the beach, my son was screaming and crying because the sand was burning his feet. I told him to put on his sandals. He got mad and threw them in the ocean, then started crying harder when he realized they were gone. He's now hiding under the bed in the condo and is refusing to come out. FML

Today, I went to the beach with friends. While splashing around in the ocean and waving to my friends who were sitting on the sand, I got caught in a strong current and had to be rescued by a lifeguard. They gave me a wristband that said, "Needs Adult Supervision". FML

Today, my young son and I were in line at Subway. I guess he got bored and started to insult the teenage girl behind us. I tried to get him to stop, but he wouldn't listen. Eventually the girl punched him in the face and left. As my son cried uncontrollably, everyone else there clapped. FML

Today, I rescued a little boy who looked like he was drowning in a public pool. His mother then smacked me in the face for "touching him". FML

Today, I got stung by jellyfish. As I was writhing in pain on the beach, my dad comes up and asks me to be quiet and that I'm embarrassing him. FML

Today, while at work, I got a complaint from a guest. She complained that after spending two hours to get her hair done for a wedding, she got drenched with water from a child. I work at a WATER PARK. Thank you for calling me a pathetic asshat for no reason in front of other guests. FML

Today, while at the beach, my son needed to pee. I told him to pee in the ocean. He took off his pants and peed from the beach to the water. FML

We live in a society!

Today, after standing in line for most of my lunch break just to buy food, some asshole with a cart full of stuff cut in front of me. He claimed that he was there the whole time, and the whole line, plus the cashier backed him up. I missed lunch. FML

It's not your fault. He should of said "My daughter's choking!" or something. I would call the guy a jackass if he just cut in front of me.

This is F the daughter's life. Today I was at the beach eating a hot dog and I started choking. My father panicked. He ran away, and I assumed that he was going to find someone to help. He comes back with a cup filled with water. I died of asphyxiation. FML.

how does water help a choking kid? and he could say excuse me, or give an explanation for his cutting...

Who's "US" in this description? Do you mean "homosexuals"? If so... then why did he have a daughter? Adopted? Side question: So how were the hot dogs? I ain't gonna lie. that sounds ******* delicious to me right now.. A couple Chicago-style hotdogs.. with everything.. Mmmm...

If I've learned one thing in my life, it's that, if someone frantically asks for water, there must be something wrong.

Ok, everybody needs to shut up. Obviously, being the observer, what the OP saw probably wasn't choking but just heavy coughing. That + people should not have to wait in a long line if all they want is a cup of water since 1) it's usually free and 2) takes 2 seconds to get.

So someone cut in front of you for something that takes five seconds to get on a slow day. Bad form when their daughter isn't choking, but you really had to make a scene about how YOU'RE RUINING IT FOR THE REST OF US? Grow up kthx.

I've read some of the comments here. What the hell happened to being "respectful"? Seriously. What the f*ck? Am I the only one that read "Our Rules"? Besides, you don't EVER give a choking person food or water.

I would have done the same thing. Besides, you don't ever give someone who is choking something to drink. It's common sense. Obviously she wasn't really choking if that's all he did. Probably was just having a coughing fit.
