Thanks for your help

Today, I was on the subway when I felt like I was going to faint. I got off the train at the next stop, walked to a bench, but fell over and passed out. When I woke up, I looked around at at least 25 people, who had stepped around me, passed out, in the middle of the platform. FML

Today, I was on the train to work. I was up late the night before, causing me to doze off. When I woke up, I was at my station. I stood up, went to walk out of the door and fell flat on my face on a platform full of people. Someone had tied my shoelaces together. FML

Crotch rot

Today, while on the train to university, I realized it was my stop and quickly stood up to get off. Or I would have, if my leg hadn't gone to sleep and caused me to fall, landing face first into the crotch of the old guy in front of me. FML

Today, I was on the train when I fell asleep. Everything would have been fine but I was suddenly jerked awake by the very loud sound of my own fart, followed by the stares of many strangers. FML

GET ME OUT!

By bluemonday - 17/04/2009 11:47 - Canada

Today, I was having a dream that I was climbing out of a well. While almost out, I felt someone grab my knee; I screamed loud in terror. When I opened my eyes, nearly 25 people were staring at me. The lady across from me apologized for hitting me with her bag. I was on the C-train. FML

Today, I was rushing to get on the train to work as I heard the "door closing" beeps. I was about to step onto the train when a man pushed me out of the way so that he could get on. My handbag fell out of my hand into the carriage. I stayed on the platform. FML

Today, I was sitting waiting for my train for a long while. When it finally came, I had pins and needles in my foot. When I got up, I fell and unsuccessfully stumbled towards the train. The doors closed and it left without me. FML

Today, I was riding the train and fell asleep. A friend of mine got on a few stops later, and to be funny, shouted 'BOO!'. I woke up and was so startled I peed myself. FML

Today, while waiting on the platform, a blind man asked out loud for some help getting into the subway car. I helped him through the doors and into a seat. I decided to sit down as well. Twenty minutes later, I realized I was on the wrong subway line. FML

Today, I fainted on the sidewalk. When I woke up, I was still lying on the sidewalk, people were stepping over me and my purse was gone. FML

Today, I was so tired that I fell asleep on a bus. When I awoke suddenly, half of the bus was staring at me, with some people chuckling and smiling. I have no idea what I did. FML

There were 25 people who stepped over you and passed out? You may need to wear less perfume, or something.

Who on earth voted that she " deserved it"? She couldn't help it and was a disappointment On society itself.

I know I'm going to get voted down for this, but they do tell to to try to avoid getting on the train if you don't feel well. But yeah, people are assholes. That's why I'm a cynic.

Read the FML again. She didn't start to feel unwell until she was already on the train, and she got off at the next stop.

they probably thought you were a drunk

I'm not trying to call you ugly, but I bet someone would've helped if you were hot. Looks can go a long way.

At least no one robbed or molested you.

But why would it matter if it were a drunk or not? I helped an alcoholic the other day, who had fallen and couldn't get up. There he was, lying in the snow, and people just didn't care. What makes alcoholics less worth the help of people? :|

Sorry that this happened to you. Fainting when you don't know why is the most horrible experience.

So sorry you had to live through that, OP- but, on the other hand, you woke up and no one robbed you, hurt you, took advantage of you, did anything to you other than leave you alone and give you the room you needed to recuperate- soooo what are you complaining about?

I don't know, maybe because her airway could have been restricted and she could have died as a result? Or a multitude of other things that would have resulted in a worse outcome.
