Today, I was at a clothing store. I tried on a dress, but decided it was too much for me. Taking it off, I realize my hair was tangled in the big security button. The employees had to bring me to the front of the store, lay me on the counter, and take the button out in front of a laughing crowd. FML

Dressed for success

Today, I realized the dress I bought yesterday still had the security tag on. I returned to the store to get it removed, only to realize I'd lost my receipt. The lady at the counter thought I stole it, called security, and had me escorted out, dress-less. FML

Whoops

Today, I was trying on clothes in a store that had just screens set up for changing. As I took off the first pair of pants had I tried on, my foot got hooked in the cuff and I fell out in my underwear in front of the whole store. FML

Tight fit

Today, I tried on a sweater in a store. It was a bit tight, but I managed to get it on. When I tried to take it off, it got stuck halfway. After several failed attempts, a sales associate had to help me out of it, while other customers watched. FML

Today, I got stuck in a dress in the fitting room and had to call the sales associate for help. She had to crawl under the door to rescue me. FML

Stalling

By Anonymous - 04/10/2009 02:56 - United States

Today, I was trying on dresses in a stall that requires an employee of the store to have a key to open. After I took off one dress to go to another, an employee quickly opens my door, to give the stall to someone else. The entire store could see me in my granny panties and bra. FML

Today, I was in the dressing room of my favorite store. While looking in the mirror at a shirt I really like, the fire alarm went off. In a panic, I ran out of the store like everyone else. The sensor went off on my shirt and I was banned from the store for attempted theft. FML

J'accuse !

Today, I was shopping at a store from which I had previously bought a shirt. The clerk accused me of trying to steal my own shirt and called security. They examined it and argued with me for so long I was late to work. FML

Today, I went to the store to buy some new shirts. I tried them on and none of them fit. When I walked out to return the shirts, everybody was staring at me. I looked down to see why. I'd forgotten to put my original shirt back on. FML

Today, while trying on an outfit in the dressing room at the mall, I got locked in. I decided to take 5 minutes to try and get out by crawling under the door. After I got out, I realized I left my cell phone, my purse and my pants inside. FML

Today, I was at my friend's house, and I asked if I could try on one of her dresses. It was a little snug, but I got it on. When it came time to take it off though, it wouldn't budge. My friend and her mom had to cut it off me. FML

the messed up thing is that retail stores have guns in the back that are for taking sensors on and off in the stock room. FYL for the clerks just being assholes.

I enjoy Plexico's comments, I just hate him for thinking up the noodle joke in the noodle fml before me :( The worst thing is, my head went the same place here as well.... Plexico.... Are you me? Only in a plexi glass house? In Mexico?

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the noodle joke, I laughed the entire time I wrote it! I'm in Texas, which some consider Occupied North Mexico. And I got my name by altering the spelling of a name of an American Football player who happens to be an idiot, but I just liked the sound of his name.

I'm sure they wouldn't have had climb on top of the counter while they cut the security button out of her pubic hair, Thats indecent exposure.

Just cut your hair. Or put your hair up in a bun whenever you go out shopping for clothes.

Not everyone wants to cut their hair off when they can just use the little device that removed security tags. Besides, she still would have had to go to the counter in front of everyone.

uhm...this is very unrealistic. I agree with 43 there are such things as siccors, they could have used those. And they had to lay you down? and LMAO plexico... maybe it WAS the hair down there...
