Alexa, play "Medication" by Spiritualized

By In Pain - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I had gum surgery. I can't laugh. I can't smile. I can't talk. I can't eat. All I can do is wait for the pain medication to kick in. FML

Merry trippings to you when they finally kick in :)

I'd be playing video games or sleeping. That's two fun ways to escape reality. Find your own way to escape reality OP :)

But you can write, read and relax,can't you?Hope you recover soon: )

Don't understand how this is classified as a "FML"

The "I can't laugh/smile/eat" bit made it a huge FML for me. I'm easily amused and I tend to eat small meals several times a day rather than three large meals, so I'd be starving.

I would be happy, gives you an excuse to: loose weight, not laugh at lame jokes, not reply to ppl, and not have to smile back at other people

Well if the pain meds havent kicked in you really don't have a reason to be smiling or laughing

First world problems. At least you can afford the surgery and keep your mouth healthy, OP. As someone who's had multiple dental surgeries, not a lot of sympathy here. This really isn't an FML. You signed up for this.
