Today, while I was on the bus to work, a morbidly obese man sat down next to me. When my stop came and I stood up to get off, he just looked at me, said with a smirk, "good luck with that," and went back to reading his paper. I missed my stop. FML

Today, I was riding the public bus and a really fat, smelly guy sat next to me. He put his arm around my shoulder and asked me if I was single. My stop wasn't for three more miles. FML

Today, on the bus, a large smelly man was sat next to me, pushing me against the divider and sliding into me on every turn. When he got up for his stop, his pants had loosened and his bare ass was staring me in the face. FML

Today, a pregnant woman got on the bus. There were no free seats, so I stood up to give her mine. An obese man pushed past her, waddled over, and oozed into my seat. I said it was for the pregnant lady. He called me a "sexist bitch" and claimed he needed it more. FML

Today, I was on the London underground reading a newspaper. A huge guy was sitting next to me and there weren't many other people around. As I turned a page, he leaned into me, glaring, and said, "I'm not finished yet". At the next stop I put down the paper and jumped off. It wasn't even my stop. FML

Today, a total stranger on the bus called me hideous and threw a soda in my face. I only asked him if the seat next to him was taken. FML

Today, while on the bus, I found out the seat I'd taken was the preferred spot of a very hostile and extremely overweight freshman. Instead of letting me find different place to sit, she half sat on me, and completely ignored my attempts to dislodge myself all the way to school. FML

Today, while sitting in a handicapped seat on the bus, an old man angrily approached me and chewed me out in front of everyone for not leaving the seat empty for "those who actually need it." Then he stormed off the bus, stepping heavily on my broken foot. FML

Today, I was sitting on the bus and as I'm quite short my legs were dangling. Some guy, who wasn't looking where he was going, tripped over my foot and went flying. He and everyone else on the bus glared at me like it was deliberate. The man next to me even changed seats in disgust. FML

Today, a really cute guy sat across from me on the bus. He smiled at me, then tensed his muscles and lifted a heavy bag with one arm. Thinking he was trying to act "macho" to impress me, I rolled my eyes and threw him an annoyed/disgusted look. When he got off, I realized he only had one arm. FML

Today, I got on a bus that was so overcrowded I had to stand next to the driver with nothing to hang on to. A drunk man got on and for the rest of the half hour journey continuously fell on me. When I got off, he smiled and told me as the doors were closing, "The last twelve times was for fun." FML

This is just a few of the many reasons I hate riding the bus. I prefer to walk anyways...

Since you bring that up, 79. Op, I don't get how he stopped you from getting out. I mean I get he's real fat and all but you clearly state you "stood up to get off" and buses usually have 2 exits so it's not like he completely blocked you.

Disregard that last comment. I failed to realize that op was most likely sitting at a window seat.

I like where RoseChystal is coming from. I personally would have just climbed over the fat bastard, hopefully in heals if I'd worn them.

Tell him that he should get on a treadmill. Works like a charm.

Read the FML very slowly and aloud to yourself. You should be able to answer your own question. That is unless you're really that stupid.

I am wondering the same thing, why did you miss your stop? Just because someone decides to be a dick doesn't mean you have to take it. If you were in a hurry, you wouldn't have really cared about this fat **** in your way, as your goal is to reach the door before it closes. You need to learn to invade the personal space of others if you're going to get by in life. Open doors for yourself.

Wiccanbeauty, the problem is that the big fat bastard doesn't give a **** about anyone but himself. If he got the OP fired, so what? What is that to him? He'll still be a 500-lb. whale. The fat SOB probably enjoyed screwing over the OP because it gave him a sense of power. He got as fat as he is because he has no control over himself. By forcing the OP to miss his stop, he had control over SOMEONE.
