Today, I was walking to a job interview. I needed to get rid of some gum but there were no trash cans in sight, so I spat it out on the ground. Next thing I know, some guy grabs me, sticks the gum in my hair, and walks off, muttering curses. I couldn't get it out in time for the interview. FML

Today, I noticed a cute girl in the checkout lane at the store. Feeling a little flirtatious, I decided to blow a bubble with my gum to get her attention. I accidentally shot the gum out of my mouth onto the guy next to me, spitting all over myself in the process. FML

Today, I was about to make out with my boyfriend, so I quickly swallowed my gum. Moments later, I started choking on the gum, and ended up spitting it out into his face. FML

Today, in an effort to avoid my school's strict no-gum policy as my teacher made a b-line to me, I swallowed it. By the time the teacher reached me, the gum was on my desk, as well as my breakfast, thanks to my overactive gag reflex. FML

Today, I had an interview for my dream job. I was offered coffee and a donut. It was going well until I took a bite of the donut and started choking on it. I coughed so hard I ended up vomiting into his garbage can. FML

Today, I rushed to a job interview, but my cat rubbed against me, covering my suit in fur. I grabbed a lint roller, tripped over the cat, and knocked out a front tooth. I showed up sweaty, disheveled, and missing a tooth. I didn’t get the job. FML

Today, was my first day of work in my life. I was excited, and so was my dad, who saw me to the door and ruffled my hair as he wished me luck. I didn't notice until half an hour after arriving at work that he'd stuck his gum in my hair. Nobody bothered to tell me. FML

Trash

Today, I rode the public bus. When I got off, I put my hood up only to discover that the old man who sat behind me had used my hood as a trashcan for his gum and used Kleenex. I can't get the gum out of my hair. FML

Today, I was on the phone with a client, when the gum I was casually chewing fell out of my mouth and down my shirt. While I was trying to dig it out, two of our newest customers walked into the lobby to see what looked like me fondling my breasts. FML

I don't think you deserve it like a lot of the people here, I mean, you shouldn't have thrown it on the ground, but that's no excuse for him putting the gum in your hair...

You should've stick it under the table/chair or wrap it in a paper? Don't chew a gum if you don't know how to dispose it.

I like how you say 'stick it under the table/chair' as a way to dispose gum correctly. Next you'll be telling us to flush our condoms and tampons too.

Sidewalk understandable the street I am not sure why wasn't there a bush or something nearby or even just take it out when you arrive at the interview? There are many options...come on

Why didn't you just swallow it or wait? Nobody wants to step in somebody else's chewed up gum.

I mean it was kind of gross to spit it on the sidewalk, but it was still totally uncalled for what the guy did

What i don't understand is that all of you don't care that she was assaulted. Just because she spat her gum out on the ground gives no one the right to manhandle her and do that. Would you like that done to you? And don't give me that crap where you tell me you wouldn't do what she did. I see people do that all the time.
