Smooth sailing

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - Puerto Rico

Today, I was messing around in computer class when somebody called my name from the hall. Trying to be smooth, I tried rolling my chair backwards out into the hall. The wheels wasted no time jamming and sending me crashing face-first into the floor in front of everyone. FML

The key words that make this a YDI: "...I was messing around..." "...trying to be smooth..."

Someone ****** up and replaced the old chair wheels with the ones from a Wal-Mart cart. You must've crossed a yellow line. Wal-Mart is serious about their carts.

In this case, could YDI also stand for Your Damn Issue?

Nope, right FML.

False. If you were moving backwards and the wheels jammed, you would have been sent flying backwards (cranium-first), not facefirst. Unless you broke the doggone laws of physics.

Because it is a legitimate FML and you are being a dick. You act like you haven't had any embarrassing moments.

Because it was an accident. If I'm sitting in one of those chairs and someone calls my name I would do the same thing. It's not like the OP meant to fall on their face. Stop being an ass

Eh.. Embarrassing moments happen to everyone. Laughing it off is the best remedy. Your friends will laugh with you, and who cares about the rest? Feel better op!

Yeah haters going to hate idc. Physiologically people are united by something to not like. I guess I am that person on FML.

I wasn't making fun of you for the record. And most people on FML dislike comments like "dumbass". Either that or they don't like cheerleaders. Try changing your picture and commenting techniques. Or not. Everybody's a critic, so at least one person will thumb you down. It happens.

Lol I hate cheerleaders too. That is my grandpa and I on a walk for cancer for my mom. And this whole sight is about judging what everyone says. So i don't really car what people think.

Are you trying to suggest that the OP's face is now gloriously shiny and smooth? :O
