Today, my towel was stolen at the swimming pool. I quickly found the culprit, and to avoid a conflict, I just swiped it back when he wasn't looking. I felt pretty good about everything, until I got back home and realized it wasn't actually my towel after all. FML

Today, I was showering at my dorm. I had my clothes locked in a locker and my towel and robe hanging outside the stall. Someone took off with my towel and robe, which had my keys. I had to walk down three flights of stairs to get an extra key in nothing but a plastic shower curtain. FML

Today, while taking a shower in the dorm bathroom, my roommate thought it would be funny to steal my towel, robe, and key. I spent over an hour waiting for someone to come into the bathroom so I could ask them to bring me something to cover up. FML

Today, I picked up my laundry from the wash-and-fold and proceeded to put everything away. I noticed a hand towel that wasn't mine and made a mental note to return it; turned out they'd given me someone else's boxers as well. My boyfriend doesn't believe me. FML

Today, I lost my watch at the pool. After giving a detailed description of it at the desk, I was really happy to hear someone had found it and handed it in. Too bad I was too late, because someone had already claimed it. FML

Today, I was at the gym. At the end of my workout, I realised I lost the bundle of keys I had in my pocket that contained the key to my locker with all my stuff. I panic and start looking for them. After an hour of desperate searching, I find them thrown in the bottom of the public toilet. Thanks. FML

Today, I found out who's been stealing clothes from me during swim practice. She called me a liar, despite wearing one of my sweaters, which has my initials stitched into it. FML

Today, while taking a shower, I was enthusiastically singing one of my favorite songs. When I got out, I noticed a bunch of things missing, and a note on my desk saying "shut the f*ck up, you suck." I was robbed and judged by a thief. FML

Today, I was washing some clothes in the laundry room at my apartment complex. I went back an hour later, passed my neighbor on the way in, and moved my clothes to the dryer. I just brought them back from the dryer, and all my underwear are missing. FML

Today, I went to the beach with a friend. We'd forgotten to get our towels out of the SUV, so I rushed back to the parking lot. I opened the passenger-side door and climbed in to begin my search. After ten seconds or so, I realized I'd busted into someone else's car. FML

Today, I went to take a shower, but forgot my towel and dorm key in my room. After my shower, I had to run down to the front desk butt-naked, using only a shampoo bottle as cover, and ask for a temporary key. The person running the front desk was my ex-girlfriend’s current boyfriend. FML

So is it only acceptable to make fun of someone's appearance if they're doing the duck face on this site?

kelsorg 21

pretty much. if you haven't seen all the gifs or memes of duck face yet, look it up.

#43 it's still pretty f'd up to judge or make fun of someones appearance. Why should it matter where? It's never ok to be a cyber bully.

No matter who you are or what you look like, you should be able to enjoy this site to the same degree as everyone else without having to worry about being judged.

Actually, Crofty, it's the third time this week. I think it's the Egyptian cotton that makes OP's towels so damn steal-able.

You're right but if he had said "no" OP would have thought he was lying (even though the guy wasn't). *Fight breaks out*

Poor guy. Next time ask the life guards if they have seen who took it.

Mauskau 35

Tuesday 1 July 2014 2:21

Life guards are supposed to watch the pool incase someone is in danger, if they spent their time watching to see if there are any towel thieves around there would be more serious cases in pools.

acerredrum 23

Tuesday 1 July 2014 2:52

Actually their job is to watch the entire pool area, not just the water, for dangerous behavior as well. If people are rough housing around the water or running around the pool the life guard is suppose to stop them as a preventive measure.
