Embarrassing, Accident and Love: Show off

Show off

By a stupid jackass - 22/06/2012 01:28 - United States - New York

Today, I got lunch with a girl I really like. On the way, for some idiotic reason I decided it would be a good idea to show off by jumping up to high-five the red hand on a traffic sign. I ended up slipping and slamming full-force into the pole. I now have a bruise on my face. FML

Today, at work, I decided to try and impress this girl walking behind me by holding the door open for her. As she was walking through, I inadvertently pulled the door too hard. It slammed against the wall and ricochet back, hitting her right in the face. FML

Today, I was walking down the street with my friend, one I walk down every day, and I saw a really cute guy nearby. I felt like I looked better than usual, so I turned my head to offer a smile, and walked right into a pole. The impact was strong enough to send me falling to the floor. FML

Today, I asked a girl out and made plans to go see a movie. About 5 minutes in, I made a move to put my arm around her and smashed her in the face. FML

Today, I was riding my bike home from the store. Wanting to impress some passers-by, I tried to do a trick on a sharp turn. I hit a pole with my balls. As I was lying on the ground in agony, a guy pulled over, took a picture, and took off laughing. FML

Today, in an attempt to impress a girl I like, I tried to crush a soda can by hitting it with my forehead. Not only did I fail, I knocked myself out in the process. When I regained consciousness, the girl was gone and someone had taken the liberty of drawing a penis on my face. FML

Today, I was riding my long board. A few feet from me an attractive girl was riding one too, in the same direction. We made eye contact right as I slammed into a light pole. She then fell because she was laughing so hard. FML

Why do boys seem to think that girls like it or will be impressed by you doing stupid things? Trust me, she would have probably rather you just have been you than try to be "funny" like that. I know first dates can be nerve-wracking, but just act like normal next time; be yourself.

I'll bet when you set out on this date, you didn't think you'd be the one taking a pole to the face.

This could of went much worse. He's lucky he didn't end up with another pole between his legs.

When something can't even pass as a story for a porno movie, don't do it. I mean, what did you think would happen, anyway? *High-fives stop sign* "Oh my, make love to me!"

Sounds like you shouldn't either, seeings how hard it is for you to make a coherent sentence.

Sorry 54, Mom's BF hadn't seen the memo that idiots are now swarming the comments on the FML page. I'll make it easier for you to understand. By saying that OP is 5 years old, 48 is implying that the OP is extremely immature and therefore is too young to date. The sentence is perfectly coherent - but than again I figured it was a 'using a word out of context' situation. Its okay, its an early morning for me, too.

"decided it would be a good idea to show off" is means for a YDI. If you want her to like you so much, just treat her well, OP. If she's a good girl, shell return the favor.
