Today, on my way home to Bordeaux after a weekend in Paris, I had the pleasure of being sat next to a man who took out all the peanuts from a packet, counted them one by one, then sorted them into piles of five. This went on for an hour. FML

Why does it bother you with what he does with his own time?

Was he counting out loud? If not, I see no problem with a passenger quietly amusing himself.

I'd love to see what you'd do sitting next to my autistic son with his bag of 53 trains, lining them up, in "order", and saying each of their names as he pulls them out. Try not to judge peoples' quirks. They may not be able to help it.

My cousin is autistic also - your son sounds like a sweetheart. They are very special souls arent they ☺

Not so much a comment on the FML as a comment about the FML staff. How was my earlier post in violation against the rules? What is sarcasm at a stupid FML like this not allowed? Seems like someone is a little butt hurt today. Do you need lube to help make sure you are not so uptight?

Ehh, it's just something to do. Not far off than playing on your phone. Like people may think wow always on your phone yet, you wouldn't batter an eye lid.

Sound like a situation where minding your own business would help.

Just be glad he didn't sort your nuts.

Okay and how is that YOUR problem??

That's what's called a "nut job" from where I come from

Holy shit Op..like others said the guy may have OCD, thats not funny - Ive got it too and I count. Or he may have something else, mayby anxiety. Or he's fine and was bored and counting and sorting the peanuts for something to do. Why the hell didnt you find something to do instead of worry about others - guaranteed the guy wasnt half as worried about you as you were of him. I cant stand judgemental people.

how did this get past moderation? This "fml" sucks
