Today, I went to my regular pharmacist of three months, and since I've always seen him on a crutch, I asked him how his leg was. His response, "Still missing". FML

He is behind a counter first of all, and second he could have had a prosthetic and been wearing pants.

There isn't much that you could have done in this situation. Hope he understood that it was a genuine mistake!):

Its kinda obvious if you just stare at his leg so do it without getting noticed

Prosthetic legs aren't exactly obvious under pants and behind a counter.. It's rude to stare by the way.

Not if the person doesn't notice hahaha

Sounds like he had a good attitude about your misunderstanding if he made a sarcastic comment like that.

House would've been sarcastic and no one would accuse him of having a good attitude. Still, he may have been jocular but even if he wasn't, he probably realised no offense was meant. A simple apology would clear this right up. Don't dwell on it, OP. Honest mistake given the situation.

Ooooh....open mouth insert missing foot?

She just asked how he was. Didn't bother to find out what the issue was. I'm sure if she knew she wouldn't ask that question

LMAO. Could have happened to anyone. I'm glad it happened to you and not me.

Moderators! This FML should say "... asked him how *his leg was."

Three whole months? He's practically family! You should have asked him if the other one was lonely. You already made an ass of yourself, so you might as well go whole hog (unless you're allergic to bacon.)
