Today, I ordered pick-up from a restaurant I really like. It was pouring, so instead of taking the long way across the pedestrian walk, I ran through a grass-covered area and tripped on tree roots. I was right in front of the restaurant, so everybody saw me. FML

Today, at work, I tripped and fell face-first into a food display. As I picked myself up, totally humiliated, I tripped again and fell right back into it, earning a bunch of pitying looks from nearby customers. FML

Today, I ran for the first time in ages when I saw my bus coming. My loose shoe went flying into a shop doorway, and I tripped into the gutter. FML

Today, I was leaving work after a storm. They're building some new offices outside, so I had to walk on an uneven path near the construction zone. I came to a big puddle and tried to jump across to what I thought was a piece of asphalt. It was mud. I slipped and fell backwards into the puddle. FML

I'm not okay

Today, I went to a coffee shop. As I headed over to stand in line, I tripped over my own feet. I got back up, then tripped up yet again. Everyone was staring, and I was so mortified that I went to leave. I then struggled with the door under their glares before realising it opened the other way. FML

Today, I went into a restaurant with my family. I slipped off my chair, pulling the tablecloth with all the food and drinks on it with me onto the floor. FML

Today, I was walking down the street when I saw a friend I hadn't seen in years. I was so excited to catch up with her that I ran across the street without looking and almost got hit by a car. I ended up stumbling out of panic and landed on a pile of trash on the sidewalk. FML

Today, it was pouring rain outside, I had 2 textbooks in my hands. I took a shortcut, and instead of running around the small pole that directed the line at the cafe, I decided to jump over it. In front of a group of guys, my foot got caught and I face planted with my books flying everywhere. FML

Today, I slipped on a small wet patch of floor in the grocery store and fell flat on my back, bringing my half-full shopping cart down with me. FML

Autumn vibes

Today, I went for a jog to enjoy the fall weather. I tripped over a tree root and fell face-first into a pile of leaves. As I tried to get up, a bunch of kids had gathered to laugh, and one even shouted something about, “A grown-ass man playing in the leaves!” FML

Today, I was at the water park, when I slipped and fell to the ground in front of the no running sign. I was walking. FML

The admins also no longer respond to messages about the issues. I'm pretty sure they've just given up completely on trying to fix it.

It seems that the app's developers no longer care about updating it, and care more about finding more places to put ads.

I hate to victim-blame, but is your phone outdated? Most of the issues are happening on pretty old phones. FYI LyricaSilvan and Paws_Cat - the devs are hard at work and still take the time to let you know what's going on: http://www.fmylife.com/article/technically-speaking-what-s-up_192956.html In case you need a tl;dr - Android 8.0.0 is ready and iOS will be up in a few days.

In case you didn't know someone invented this device that if you open it and put it over your head you won't get wet. It's called an umbrella and there like $10 go buy 2 keep 1 in the car and 1 in the house.

You did see the part where she said she ran across the grass, right? Pretty sure she was on foot, not in a car.

Also the previous commenter was saying they keep it in the car so they have it on the go, genius. Of course they don't think it'll rain inside their car.
