Transportation: Today, while biking home from work, a 12 mile trip, I was speeding...

Today, while biking home from work, a 12 mile trip, I was speeding down a long hill and my jean pant leg got caught in the chain. It ripped, and then the rest of my pant leg ripped off. I had to bike 10 more miles half naked along the highway. FML

Today, I went biking. I attempted a large hill and lost control, slipped, and fell ten feet into a sewage pit. Riding home covered in crap, my sock caught my chain and I flipped over my bike. My dad had to spray me with the garden hose, bloody and shitty, in the front yard. FML

Today, I decided to ride my bike for the first time in over a year. It was seemingly going well, until I got to the first hill. As I began to ascend, I was trying a bit to hard and shit my pants, 8 kilometers away from my house. FML

Ripper

Today, at work, the seat of my pants ripped open. A coworker lent me a pair of his back-up jeans, and then those ripped in the crotch. FML

Today, my friend and I were racing on our bicycles when my chain snapped. I went over the handlebars and slid, on my back, for about ten feet. FML

Today, while hurrying by bike to an appointment, my chain broke. I quickly got off the road and managed to fix it on the sidewalk, covering my hands in black smear. Dirty but confident about my repair skills, I got up. A second later, felt something warm running down my neck. Bird poop. FML

Today, I went to the drugstore on my bike. The chain came off, the pedal punctured the top of my foot and I was bleeding a lot. To add insult to injury, the ATM inside was broken. I got gauze instead of the cash I came for. FML

Don't mind me

Today, I was cycling home. On the way, my laces got stuck in the bicycle pedals and I couldn't move the foot that got stuck. The bicycle fell over, with me attached to it. Everyone was looking at me like, "What are you doing?" FML

Today, while I was out shopping, my pants decided that they just didn't have enough holes in them, and ripped a new one in the crotch. FML

Today, I was riding on a stationary exercise bike at home, when I went to get off, my shorts got stuck under the seat. I dangled half upside down until my shorts ripped and I fell on the ground face first breaking my front tooth. I broke my tooth riding a bike that doesn’t even move. FML

Today, I came back from a 700-mile round trip. I hit a massive pothole I couldn't avoid and blew out a tire and bent my rim. I was less than a mile from my house. FML

What's with the FML fetish against "proceeded"?

on this website, the word proceeded is usually followed by the word "to". but using correct grammar, it should be followed with the words "with" or "by". "the streak of terrible behavior proceeded with breaking a flower vase" "the angry child proceeded to break a flower vase" the second sentence really doesn't need the word proceeded. people just put it in to sound good, when really they sound stupid. you could say "the angry child broke a flower vase" and sound 10 times smarter.

"on this website, the word proceeded is usually followed by the word "to". but using correct grammar, it should be followed with the words "with" or "by". 'the streak of terrible behavior proceeded with breaking a flower vase'" NO! That's just fail. That sentence doesn't even make sense you moron.

Shut up about "proceeded." I agree it got pretty annoying that one time when every other FML had it, but it hasn't been used in a month; get over it already.

#40, win. (: and #2, what's wrong with jeans? It could have happened with any long pants. And since OP was riding home from work, which I'm supposing is a daily job, shut up unless you expect OP to never wear long pants.

Heya buddy.. It doesn't look very good, especially in the process of correcting someone on their word choice, when you yourself make an error in your response. It's 'sheer'. The sake isn't a sheep. Just helping you out. :)

#47. Most offices have bathrooms. All you need is a pair of pants in a bag. Besides, if you're biking 12 miles to go somewhere where you should look 1/2way decent, then you should always bring a change of clothes. A ton of people at my job bike in and most of them bring clothes and a towel.
