Today, I found out that just because you collapse from dehydration on the sidewalk, it doesn't mean people are going to stop driving to see if you're okay, even if they saw you fall. FML

Today, after rolling my car on the highway, I witnessed several people stop and get out of their cars to take pictures. No one asked if I was okay, and I was the one who had to call 911 for myself. FML

Today, I was walking to my mailbox when I fell down and couldn't get up. My neighbor walked by with his dog, took one look at me struggling, said, "What is wrong with kids these days, drunk at 9 a.m.?" and continued on. I couldn't get up because I'm still healing from a stress fracture in my hip. FML

Today, it was a hot day and a woman walking in front of me collapsed. I helped her up, and I called an ambulance while she laid down. While we waited, two teenage girls walked past and I heard one say to the other, "I love how this city just lets people tan wherever". FML

Today, while at school, I slipped on a wet patch in the hall and fell over, smacking my head against the floor. I laid there for a good five minutes in agonizing pain while people literally walked over me. Not a single person bothered to help me up or ask if I was okay. FML

Today, I was walking down the street, when I slipped and fell on a patch of ice. It wasn't all that embarrassing, until I walked two more feet and slipped again. The second time, a man pulled over and loudly asked if I was drunk. FML

Today, as I was crossing the slush covered street to catch the bus, I slipped and fell right in the middle of the road. A woman in a car rolled down her window. She didn't ask if I was okay but just laughed and took a picture of me covered in cold, wet slush. FML

Today, as I was walking home, I felt my feet slip out from under me and I face-planted in the slushy, dirty, melting snow. I rolled over, completely soaked, and attempted to get up, thinking no one saw me. A mail-man then passed me without offering to help, and said, "I've seen worse." 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 tripped and fell on the sidewalk. As I did, a car that was passing by stopped, made a U-turn, and then came back so the people inside could laugh at me. When they were done taunting me, they made another U-turn and continued back in their original direction. FML

Today, I was hit by a car speeding through an intersection after the light had already turned red. Still partly blacked out, I crawled onto the sidewalk and I sat down. The woman rolled down her car window and yelled, "Watch where you're going!" as she drove by. FML

Also I've heard that if you are having a heart attack or something you must try to single someone out.. like actually point to some individual and they should help u and get an ambulance, since they will think that they have big responsibility or something like that.

You live in Texas... in August. Unless you're dumb, you should know how important it is to hydrate. YDI for not taking the time to take a sip of water and then expecting other to take time out of their day to help you.

So ******* what? People are (unfortuantly) douchebags nowadays. I avoiding some ******* fatass waling her dog and sidewalk and ******* took up the sidewalk I couldnt ******* avoid the **** and (I was bking forgot to add) I hit the metal railing I fell and was bleeding and this peice of shit walked away looking at me. She knew I fell and walked backwards to make sure I didnt ******* rip her neck off.

Thats your lesson for the day lol.

63: YDI for biking on the sidewalk. OP: FYL 'cause no one helped you when you needed it, but YDI for not staying hydrated. It's not that hard. At least now you'll keep that in mind and hopefully carry a bottle of water with you.

It's nice to know that there are so many people who don't want to be helped when they collapse for whatever reason. :) Karma will kick back one day. Hope the OP is okay.
