Miscellaneous: Second time

Second time

By timon_n_pumbaa - 11/01/2020 09:00 - Japan - Tokyo

Today, I found myself locked in a bathroom for the second time in my life. This time at least I was at home. I live alone. I had to break the window on the shower door and crawl out. Now, I need to crawl in/out to shower, brush my teeth and more. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I was in the bathroom at work. The lock on the stall door broke, and I couldn't open it. I was all alone and I started having a mini panic attack. After several minutes of frantically trying to fix the lock and hyperventilating, I realized I could just crawl under the door. FML

Break in

Today, I was locked out of my house so I texted my cousin to come over and help me get in. She came over, stood on a chair and lifted me through the smallest unlocked window possible. Sadly, this was my bathroom window and I ended up head-first into my toilet. FML

Today, I fell in the shower and the doors jammed shut. I was stuck in there for hours, waiting for my parents to come home. They had to open the door for me while I was still naked inside. FML

Stuck

Today, I found myself locked out of my house. I had to squeeze myself through a tiny window around the back. While hanging upside down, my hood fell over my head. My dog ran through to investigate the noise and ravaged me thinking I was a burglar. I then fell and broke my wrist. FML

Today, I freaked out when I couldn't get my bathroom door open. After ten minutes of panic when thinking about how I'd be stuck there for at least 8 hours until my roommate would get home, and another five mentally going over survival skills, I realized that I had forgotten to unlock the door. FML

Today, I've managed to lock myself in my own bedroom. It won't open no matter what I do. FML

Locked and loaded

Today, I left work early, and discovered I was locked out of my house. I subsequently had to use a spoon I found on the ground to smash the bathroom window. I cut my leg on the glass when I climbed through. While inspecting the wound, I felt a lump in my pocket. It was my house key. FML

Today, I knocked on the door of the bathroom to make sure nobody was in there before I walked in. Then I remembered I live alone. FML

Today, after a few beers, I was exiting the bathroom of a loud house party when the door jammed. I had to climb out through the shower window. It was fool proof until my foot got stuck. I hung outside the house upside down in the dark yelling for an hour before someone figured out where I was. FML

Today, I was locked out of my house. After hours of trying to break the door, I found out I accidentally left a window open. The door, however, still needs to be replaced. FML

I’m confused did you get locked in the bathroom or get locked in the tub/shower area. If bathroom: check the door knob if it not working get a new one. If that’s not it check the door itself the moisture might have cause the door to warp. Borrow a belt sander and sand the door down and I should be fine. If you got locked in the tub: if you have sliding shower doors you should be able to push the door in or out and then take it off it track. If you have a shower curtain then the pull the curtain to one side and get out

If you live alone, why are you locking yourself in the bathroom? Who's going to walk in on you? Also, if you're a tenant, speak to your landlord. If you own the place yourself, kick the door in, and get it replaced later. Not that you need one, because you live alone.

you should need a star or flathead screwdriver to take the handle off if this is the issue. sometimes bathroom doors have really shitty locks that can be opened with a butter knife, i had to do this to check on my ex, when she had an episode shed be unresponsive on the floor sometimes and the door was locked.

I always lock the bathroom door no matter who is in the house. Partly habit and partly because I’m just uncomfortable with an unlocked bathroom door.

I want to know how you get locked in a bathroom. Twice.

This makes no sense at all. I don't understand how you got out and I don't understand why once out you didn't fix the door. You don't seem too swift. ydi

This FML is phrased weirdly but I'm going to assume that you just live in one of those weird houses that has a window by the tub/shower rather than you being a bit dense and not being able to remove a glass paneled shower door. That's the assumption I'm using because otherwise I can't see why you would have to crawl in to brush your teeth and that. Having said that, You live alone. So pray tell why you couldn't just break the bathroom door in (if a warping issue) or remove the handle and such from the door and just leave it that way so it can't latch closed. Yes it may be awkward if you decided to have company but I can't see how doing either of those things would be any more awkward than asking a guest to crawl in and out of the window in your shower to be able to use the restroom.
