Miscellaneous: Today, I went outside to enjoy the cool air without my glasses....

By Phazzer - 16/10/2009 13:39 - United States

Today, I went outside to enjoy the cool air without my glasses. I saw my neighbor doing the same, so I waved and said hi. When she didn't respond, I yelled and went back inside. It was only later when I went back out with my glasses on that I realized I was being ignored by a Halloween decoration. FML

Today, a girl said hi to me very enthusiastically at school, and I heard her friends laughing afterward. I was too lazy to put in my contact lenses this morning so I couldn't tell who it was. FML

We've almost all been there

Today, I was walking down the street when I saw someone I thought I knew. I waved enthusiastically and shouted, "Hey!" The person stared blankly at me, so I quickly turned it into a wave at someone else behind them. There was no one behind them. I was just waving and yelling into the void like an idiot. FML

Today, I spent hours decorating my front yard for Halloween. When I stepped back to admire my work, the wind blew all the decorations into my neighbor's yard. Of course, they're currently away on a long vacation and I can't get to my stuff, so… you're welcome, I guess! FML

Today, I was walking through the main lobby at school and I saw someone waving at me, so I waved back. Turns out she was just cleaning a glass door. I heard laughter behind me. FML

Today, as I sat on the toilet, I heard a noise outside. I peered through the window and found myself staring directly at my neighbor. FML

Sheer class

Today, I saw my crush walking on the other side of the street. She hadn't noticed me, so when she did I nonchalantly looked over and casually waved to look cool. I then walked right into a lamp post. FML

The season of the witch

Today, a little girl and her mother stopped in front of my window to look at the witch I'd put there as a Halloween decoration. The little girl was smiling, so I lifted the curtain and smiled at her. When she saw me, she started to cry, and ran away. FML

Today, a group of carolers was coming up my street, so I went out in the cold to wait for them. When they finally arrived, I waved and greeted them. They huddled up discussing something while pointing at me, then skipped my house. FML

Today, I got into the shower with my glasses on by mistake. I spent 5 minutes convinced that the fog in my vision was me going blind. FML

F your neighbor's life for being ugly enough to pass as a Halloween decoration.

... what did you yell? Just hello, or angrily?

you sound like an egotistical jerk that expects everyone to respond to your Highness or at the very least a deranged weirdo....who yells at someone for not saying hello back at them?

Perhaps he yelled out, so she would hear him. Like another (louder) hello to get her attention. If not, i tend to agree somewhat with you. Yelling at someone for not waving back is just a tad retarded.

YDI for getting angry just because someone wouldn't say hi to you. If your sight is that bad you should always keep your glasses with you, even if you don't wear them. At some others, I can understand why someone would like to take their glasses off for a little bit to relax. Glasses give a lot of people headaches/strain their eyes, so I'd say going "outside to enjoy the cool air" would be nicer without them.

This fails. YDI for mistaking a costume and getting mad very easly. I wear glasses and this never happens to me. Maybe it's the fact that our vision is different...

Lol, this almost happened to me... I felt like there was some stalker behind me... then I squinted and realized it was only some plant outside the neighbor's place.
