Today, I broke my arm, and posted a picture of my X-ray on Facebook to show everyone how bad the break is. Nobody even asked me if I was OK. FML

Help!

Today, I fell down the stairs. Lying on my back in extreme pain, I called my mom for help. When she came over, she said I looked like a dead bug, took a picture and posted it on Facebook. FML

Today, I fell down the stairs and broke my arm. I went into hospital to get it put in a cast, but still went into school afterwards. I got written up for truancy because I didn't have a doctor's note. The cast was still on my arm. FML

The staircase

Today, I broke my arm because my fucking ass friend pushed me off the stairs, and while I was in pain and was screaming, no one helped me. The worst part is that it happened at school. FML

Today, my doctor called and asked me when I could have my broken hand x-rayed again. I said the ER staff had told me it was a bad sprain over two weeks ago. I'm now in a full cast, and have to have my partially healed bones re-broken. There goes my summer. FML

Today, I changed my relationship status on Facebook from "in a relationship" to "single." I forgot to take my phone to work, and when I got back, I saw someone had replied, "What happened?" Someone else commented, "He broke his hand." My ex and a bunch of other "friends" liked it. FML

Today, I blacked out going up a roller coaster. Instead of helping me, my friend took pictures of my face and posted them on Facebook. FML

Today, at a party that was pretty big, I thought it would be funny to photobomb a photo. In doing so, I slipped over and snapped my arm in. I may now have to get surgery. The good thing is I made a hell of a photobomb. FML

Well if you could post the pics on Facebook, then you were obviously fine.

What's with all the YDIs? OP doesn't deserve this, he/she broke their arm and no one even cared enough to ask if they were okay. Now yeah, if they were able to post pics on Facebook it probably isn't that bad, but that doesn't mean OP deserves no one to even care.

People aren't saying that she deserves no-one caring, they're saying she deserves being ignored when she's attention seeking like a small child.

Exactly (to the comment not the reply) Now u know that at least two people care(although u had to post it to the world to find out.) On the bright side, every minute ur wearing it is a minute closer to getting it off. Also, it could be a guy/chick magnet :) get one that they can sign!

Did you JUST post the picture? Or did you post it with a caption to let people know what it represents? If the former, YDI; I hate that shit on FB. If the latter, then yeah, FYL.

Maybe because you were asking for them to.

Obviously they know you're not ok because they see the X-ray. You want someone to ask you "Are you ok?", and you reply back: "Hell no, I broke my f%^+# arm, why would I be ok?!?" :|

Typically if you can take the time to post it on Facebook, that means you're not hurt that awful bad..

Today, I told my wife I had a huge Zoom interview and could not be disturbed under any circumstances. Nevertheless, she called her mom, got into a screaming argument the interviewer could clearly hear, then came into my office to cry on my shoulder. She doesn't understand why I'm furious with her.
