FANTASTIC start to the day!

Heineken Helen

So I was walking to work today, crossing a road and SLIPPED and fell flat on my arse There was a man across the road looking at me and I was waiting for him to laugh, cos I LOVE when other people do stuff like that, and he never did... he started coming towards me so I just shouted I'm ok and got up... and then I pretty much laughed hysterically the rest of the way to work . I always thought I'd be embarrassed if something like that happened... but it was just too feckin funny

I don't know what's funnier, Helen. That story or dunkman's comment. Don't you want to just kick him in the ass sometimes?

You should have milked it... Jumped up in the air, raised your arms and said 'I'm fine people, I'm fine! Nothing to see here'.

I was just waiting for people to laugh and they didn't... what the fuck? Yer man's face was priceless though. I think he was looking at me wondering 'what the fuck's she doing lying on the ground?'

Awww... you're all too sweet

I just don't get it cos it MUST have been really funny! What's wrong with people these days that they can't laugh at somebody elses misfortune? It's all that PC bullshit probably.

Actually, it's worse if people don't laugh! It's like having ink on your face and no one telling you.

In the middle of the road, eh? Or do you mean the path/pavement? Maybe the guy thought you were going to get hit by a truck. :eek:

Nope the road... I was crossing the road. But it's a very very quiet road... lucky me

I would've laughed. It so sad when something like this happens and the people are totally embarrassed and ashamed. Come on, people lighten up, laugh, it's funny. Unless you got hurt of course, then it's hilarious!

I know what ya mean. When people can't laugh at themselves it makes them look even sillier... if they laugh it's funny, if they don't it's even funnier and a bit pathetic.

I think Faith No More said it best.

'It's always funny until someone gets hurt...
And then it's just hilarious !'
