Today, while coming back from skiing, a woman asked me if I could help her carry her stroller. I put my skis down and helped her. When I came back to pick my skis up, I saw two guys running away with my gear. You try chasing someone while wearing ski boots. FML

Hey, OP here. I'm finally gonna answer some of your questions: 1. Yes, i do believe it was a set up. The woman and the thiefs were definitely working together. 2. They were old skis, I bought myself a pair of awesome new ones later :) 3. I didn't go skiing alone. I live in Switzerland and was helping a friend of mine -who is an elementary school teacher- as a skiing instructor for his 9 year old school kids. He teaches and lives in a tiny village about an hour from where I live, and since I don't have a car, I went there by train. So obviously i rode the train back home alone. The only good thing about the whole story is that I didn't have to carry my skis back home. ha. ha. Feel free to message me, if you have any questions.

I tried... I ended up falling in the snow.

I bet they were working together. The old "stroller scam."

Unfortunately, carrying that in your heart doesn't get you new ski gear.

I'm going to get eaten alive for this but what does "OP" mean? I just started using FML and that's the one thing I don't understand.

Looks like I dodged a bullet haha

Yeah 60 must be new. Everybody knows that OP stands for Organic Platypus.

Most skies are around $500+ in the U.S dollar... Good deed or $500 dollars 500 DOLLARS!

I have tried chasing my brother in ski boots before... Down stairs. Not fun

had my snowboard stolen. didn't see it happen. sorry for ya. fyl.

Well, if you ever do find them, just remember that a ski boot to the nuts will **** them up good. Really sorry to hear that, though. The company that made my beloved skis went out of business, so this is the type of thing I have nightmares about.
