(+1)Hideous cover, or color?
If it's on the inside, it's no big deal. However, for revenge, do something to the outside of her house for the whole world to see!

(0)That's it Alan, you're cut off!
(+2)I have a feeling the OP isn't telling us something. I'm seriously not trying to be rude or sarcastic, but maybe the friend is slightly mentally retarded. For everyone to agree with said friend, there must be something wrong with that person.
(+1)Wtf? who does that?
(+2)Like other people said... time for lawsuit. Let's see if she still finds you ungrateful when she gets fined for breaking and entering, hmm?
(+1)wtf who tje hell goes into someone elses house and paints it while they are away seriously WTF?!?
(0)Hey 1, what kind of guitar is that?
(0)God yes.
(-1)well , I like your friend (:
(+1)yeah, or call the cops!
(+1)^^^ I agree. I'd take a bunch of pictures and sue her ass, regardless of what your other friends think, though they sound just as awful as her. Time to get some new friends sweetie.

(+2)op, what kind of retarded friends do you have? make some new friends and nipple twist that friend who messed your house.
#8 - On 07/29/2010 at 10:08am by pokri
(+6)Agree with 1. Paint her car rainbow colors so when she drives around EVERYONE will see, rather than just her house where the only people that will see aer passing ones.

aw i feel sorry for the op but she was only trying to help lol x
(-1)42 from the posts you've made before, I honestly think you're retarded.
(-1)Catfight!
(-1)babe, I don't mind being called retarded but you look like a horse. love you too ;) x
(-1)babe I don't mind being called retarded but you ate something else ;) x
(-2)49 owned 42:) and then was owned back
(-2)49 why you having a go at a random person on FML for no reason? FYL for being so childish!
#96 - On 07/29/2010 at 12:29pm by Sarah__Louise
(+1)I think if the friend was trying to help she wouldn't have left such a big mess for OP to clean up. i mean paint isn't super easy to get outta hardwood floors ya know... FYL OP
(+1)78 huh?
(+1)lol at first it said "but your face looks like a horse" now it says "but you ate somthing else"
(0)Should've handled that bitch.
(0)hahaha.. what are friends for ?
(-1)im sure it isnt as bad as you make it out to be,what color where the walls?
(+3)YDI for calling her a friend.
YDI for having a house that can be broken into.
YDI for coming home from vacation.
YDI for knowing everyone, ESPECIALLY the ones that agree with her. WTF is wrong with you!
(-2)YDI for living in a house
YDI for having a paint store near you
YDI for having friends
YDI for being too picky with colors, SHE probably thought it was pretty.
(-2)... WTF is wrong with you!
(0)Me?
(-2)YDI for being born!
(-1)ydi for having fugly frends
(+6)That's not cool. I would be 'ungrateful' too, if someone broke into my house while I was away and changed things without my consent, and left a mess for me to clean. Especially if it's on my hardwood floor. Your friend is an over zealous idiot, imo.
B&E is still B&E even if it's a friend coming in to paint your walls without telling you, I believe. I think there's a number to call in that case.
(+1)Yes it is still breaking and entering regardless of if you know the home owner.
(+2)If that's something nice, I don't want anyone to do anything nice for me!
(0)whoa what kind of friend would do that
(-2)Maybe you need to get some taste! You don't know hideous from beautiful.
About your hardwoods: a little turpentine ought to fix you right up.
(-2)Yeah, the floors are definitely not ruined. It'll come up easily.
(+1)Have you seen it? If not, then maybe you should STFU about her taste. For all you know, she hates that color, especially on walls. Maybe it is a nice shade of pink or purple or fuchsia.
Oh, and turpentine will make the floors worse, unless she decides to strip the whole floor and stain it again. And, the floors will never be the same quality.
(+1)breathe 51 breathe. no need to go nuts.
(-1)Sarcasm...must not be as obvious as one would think. Or maybe it is, and you're all just uhh...SUPER PERCEPTIVE, 51!
(0)That's messed up! Make her fix that shit...
(0)if u didn't ask them to do it then call the cops. then again it matters how good a friend they r to u. and if there not your friend any more then lawsuit

fuck off I don't care about spelling and my hands r huge and I'm using an I pod
(+3)you spelled everything else correctly, so your logic fails.
if your hands "r" too huge, turn it landscape you fuckin cunt nugget.

ok I didn't read over my "work" so I didn't know I spelt any thing wrong he said I did so I trusted him/her and just to be called on things like u and r

47 wins. who spell checks an fml these days? cuz I dnt. this isn't school:)
(+7)Only those who wish to appear to have more than just the two brain cells? It doesn't matter if it's not school. Are you saying being in school is the only reason to do things correctly? So when you get paid are you not going to bother checking the amount you get, (maths), correctly, because you're not in school?
(+1)actually pendatik wins because everyone should spell check.
sure, i don't capitalize my letters, but at least i spell everything correctly.
and ymmot_45, i don't even know what the fuck you wrote on your last comment.
to me it look like a leprechaun to me.
(-1)What are you saying? 47, who is 'he' and stuff?? I don't get it.... :/
Btw, school is a place to educate you into thinking smarter and preparing you for the future, my teacher always tells me to doublecheck and it's become a habit. :|
But this is FML and alot of people use this from the app (like me) so it's harder to type...so I don't blame 47 for using stuff like 'u' or 'r' because it's text language. :)

56, kind of. but I'm mostly just saying that when I'm at home and my comments on my fml aren't really important to me and I dnt rlly care about them, y put in the extra effort? to me u waste ure time by typing it all out on something as primitive as an fml. get me? haha and u think I have only like 2 brain cells, but if u knew me; ud knw u were wrong. I go to a listed middle school academy and I take high school classes:) not trying to brag or anything, but my point is that I do have a brain ya knw.

(+1)Fucking this ^^^^^.
(Sorry, I just refuckingread a previous fucking thread.)
(0)i like our recent triple-team action.
...am i the only one? I'M COOL, RIGHT?! PLEASE?!
(+4)81 and 84: Please reread pendatik's first comment. If you don't care what others think of you, then don't bother to spellcheck. But again, the fact that you, Vegas, bothered to tell us about your academic career tells me you do care; otherwise, why mention it? I'm still constantly shocked when people on the internet don't bother to type correctly, yet expect others to take them seriously in an argument or debate.
EVERYONE judges how you present yourself in the adult world-- and yes, the internet is part of the adult world. That's just the way it is. It may be unfair and it may suck. However, you're only doing yourself a disservice by rebelling against that. Most people won't give you a chance to prove their assessment is wrong, whether they based that assessment on appearance or something like your writing skills. If you make yourself look like an idiot, don't get upset when strangers treat you like one.
(+2)ON NO PLANET would any friend I've ever had in life consider it "OK" to break into someone's house and change their decor without their consent. You need new friends. BADLY.
(+2)Yikes. My dad hired someone to paint in our house when he was laid up after surgery and they got paint all over our floors. Since when are people too stupid to use newspapers?
Don't use any abrasive cleaners! They can ruin hardwood. My dad used a heat gun and was able to scrape the paint off with a minimum of damage for ours (nothing some waxing didn't fix). I'm sure, however, you have better people to advise you than a random person on FML.
(+1)One should not use newspaper as paint can run over the edge and even soak through. Better to use actual drop cloths.
(+1)it's best to breed and utilize termites so they can clean your hardwood floors.
(+2)My mum is insisting on redecorating the house over the last few weeks. Hence absolutely every single conceivable item in the house being paint splattered. People should know that good gestures and cheap work are lousy if badly carried out.

(-8)Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
See, a lot of people might feel for the OP, except for a small detail, if everyone agrees with her that he's being ungrateful it probably means that she actually did a nice job, the color is probably something nice, the mess probably wasn't THAT big (you can't NOT have a little mess after painting) and the floor I'm sure it isn't ruined, maybe a stain or two which are very hard to avoid when painting, but you can probably clean them up.
(+5)Why would one be grateful that someone BROKE INTO ONE'S HOME (which is a felony), painted a room a color one does not like without permission (which could be either a felony or a misdemeanor), and ruined one's hardwood floors (which could be either a felony or a misdemeanor), and left the mess for him to clean up?
It doesn't matter if anyone else likes the color, the OP doesn't like it and doesn't want it.
She didn't ask, didn't take into account her taste, violated her privacy, ruined his things, and made work for her for when she returned from vacation.
(+5)A few things here.
1. I just painted my living room and dining room. Not by a professional, just me, and there are no paint stains on my floor or any of my trim for that matter. If you do it right, there is no paint where it's shouldn't be.
2. If you come in to do a job, especially a surprise one, you should probably clean up after yourself and not leave it for someone else to do. After all, you made the mess, and like your mother hopefully taught you, you clean up your own mess.
3. Regardless of whether or not the job was done well or if the colour is nice to other people, it is commonly considered rude, if not illegal to break into someones house (B&E) and paint (vandalism).
4. Just because someone else likes the colour, doesn't make it OK. They don't live there. You should get to choose what colours your walls are painted, unless you agree to let someone else pick and paint.
(-5)Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
yeah, it sounds to me like the op is exaggerating and leaving details out. I highly doubt this friend just decided on a whim to do all this, the op probably bitched about or actually needed her walls painted, and I'd guess her friend was just trying to do something nice and surprise her. the op probably just doesnt like the color and is being and brat and exaggerating. not the best idea, but it's not like the friends intentions were bad. and if all her friends agree, I'd have to assume this is the most likely scenario. just tell her you appreciate what she was trying to do but explain what upsets you about it all, and ask if shell help you fix it. make a painting party out of it or something, don't let a misunderstanding ruin your friendship.
(+2)You'd be surprised what people would do. My family is big on the idea that whatever they think is best, is definitely best. Example: my grandparents came into my house one day while I was out of town (I had no clue they had a key and from what I understand, they lied to my dad saying I had given them permission to get one) and threw away all the things they thought were trash, including mementos, homework, and clothing. They hammered nails into my walls to hang up pictures that I didn't want there, and, while they didn't actually leave a mess, per se, it was a huge nuisance.
My dad is similar. I was in the hospital for a month once, and when I came back my whole bedroom had been rearranged. I was pissed, but, it was his house, so technically I couldn't bitch too much, but it was very infuriating.
(0)lol that was wrong fml comment but way to make it work for this haha
(0)Yes #15 Your just a boss. It's not like you have the same promblems that he was having.
(+3)he has just a boss?!
what is this and where can i get one?
(+2)Can you get them holesail?
I can remember it for you holesail!
(0)HAHAHAHAHAHA! this made me laugh so hard.
(+3)You need to sue for the cost of fixing it and then FIND NEW FRIENDS. those people are clearly trash.
(+2)you need new friends
#62 - On 07/29/2010 at 11:25am by jlsblue
(+2)you need new friends but good luck with that because it just proves people are fucking morons since everyone agreed with her.
(+3)i think its time to get revenge and get new friends
(+2)do the same to her. when she confronts you, call her ungrateful. Simple.
(+4)The hideous paint color isn't the issue for me. Perhaps the OP had been complaining about the wall color and the friend really did think that this was a color the OP wanted. However, the hardwood floors are what kill me! You shouldn't take on major household projects you don't know how to do--which your friend obviously didn't. If she won't pay for the repairs to your floor, it sounds like lawsuit time to me.
(+3)This is the silliest thing since Goldilocks and the 3 bears.
It's called "breaking and entering". You should call the cops on her, or minimally go to small claims court to get her to fix what she did.
(+2)That's not nice RedPill; knocking the only literature some of the people on FML have ever read!
(-1)Haha I bet you're one of the popular kids at school. not!
(-2)Do you always make friends with lunatics? YDI for not having an alarm system or some shit.
(+1)sucks!

well, if she was doing it as a good deed, then you are ungrateful.
(0)Rationale fail.
(+1)what you should do is wait until she's out for the night, go to her house - and everyone who agrees with her, do this to them too - and paint rude words all over their houses. save the worst for the bitch who got you into this mess, of course.
(+3)Take that bitch to court, I know I would.
(+3)press charges
(0)I feel like we're missing some back story here. I cant imagine a scenario where one person would break into another persons house and paint it then all the mutual friends would agree that this was a kind thing to do. Im wondering if OP had talked to their friend about painting their house and the friend decided to do it as a surprise while they were gone.
Even with that kind of back story it still sucks to come home to a mess and hate the color.
(-1)agree.
(+2)Well that sucks! As soon as she's on holiday return the favour an ruin her house see hpw she likes it.
(+1)sue~
(0)everyone you know is stupid

Well, you ARE ungrateful, aren't you?
(-1)Yea that was rude to do without asking you .
But I got some good news for yor hardwood floors if it's latex paint it with come up with hot water and light scrubbing . I know I took up carpets in my house to find my hardwood floors cover with paint from the same thing .

ungrateful insect .... she did her best to pleased you...and you the only one from her friends couldn't value her creation... :-)
(-7)Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
she was just trying to be nice and make it prettier... and failed... be greatful you have a friend that likes you so much that she'd try to pretty up your house... I agree with your friends... maybe you should get her to come back and help redo the floors though... asking in the nicest possible way.
(+3)oh and breaking into someone's house is crazy.. no matter how close of friends... u have to ask..
(+2)so when she's out, you break into her apt and cook a disgusting meal, ruin her stoves, and leave a huge mass to clean up
(+1)When your friend goes somewhere for vacation, break into her house, clean it and paint her room an awesome color and then... spray paint every wall in the house saying, "Sorry I was a bitch."
(+1)first of all, why? why'd she do that? and if you didn't like it, you could have probably went liek, "thanks for trying to help, i appreciate it but.... ect ect" and yea, you can do it over. if you're a person of revenge, then have fun painting her house.
(+3)So call the cops, have her arrested for breaking in, then call professionals to clean the place up and paint it back to the original color, then send her the bill. If she bitches, tell her she'll be hearing from your lawyer. Then take her to court. P.S. Your friends are idiots. Find new ones.
#127 - On 07/29/2010 at 2:56pm by RayeofSunshine
(+2)Press charges, sue for damages, or decide her car "needs" a new paint job with a few gallons of latex paint. Don't get caught.
(+3)I don't see how a so called "friend" can do something like that... i think its time for you to get better friends...
(-2)Ever heard of a house alarm? Would've came in handy here.
(+3)silly, call the cops
(+2)Like other people said, you can save the floors. Ask a professional before doing anything.
(-1)ydi for not having cameras
(+2)Hey, this is the OP...just made an account to clarify this. She painted my room black, then tried to paint turquoise stripes over it. The hardwood floor might be fixable, yeah, but getting the black paint out of my white carpet...? Not so much. Not to mention she broke my patio door to get in...and she tried to poor the extra paint down the drain in my bathroom sink, so that's all clogged up. Needless to say, she's not my friend anymore...if I can get her to pay for the damages and a painter to fix my room, I won't press charges.
(+1)I'd say go ahead and file a report while you can. I suspect you're going to have a tough time getting any money out of her. A police report will help you in the civil suit. And yeah, get friends who aren't morons.
(+1)thank goodness you're taking charge! that friggin sucks though she should have offered to clean up or even had it done before you got there and how dumb are your other friends who agreed that you're ungrateful? hope you get better friends! it wouldn't hurt to get a psychological exam for those potential friends.... ;)
(+1)This was just totally wrong. Get a police report. There is a whole lot you can do. And there are some options if you don't want to hire an attorney. Your county courthouse (or some courthouse in your county, if not the one nearest you) probably has a self-help center where you can find info on getting your own court case going. I think an attorney would save you a lot of time and trouble, though. There is always the Legal Aid Society who will charge you only what you can afford.
(0)she clearly isn't a friend if she did that to you. some people are just bitches.
(0)omg I'd fuck her up
(0)i'd be pissed.
(0)I really don't understand how none of you have seen the episode of House where this exact situation happens to house, except without him... having friends....
(-2)Why exactly are you on the internet whining about this instead of filing a police report for breaking and entering with willful destruction of property? If all you plan to do about this is complain, you're a bigger idiot than your 'friend'.
(+1)When I did I say that all I plan to do is complain? And why would you get an account on a website that's devoted to people "whining" on the internet if it bothers you so much?
(-1)YDI for being a female.
(+1)is she slow? I just don't understand...that sucks, though. thanks for clarifying; I agree, fyl
(0)time for new friends! sorry.
(0)If one of my friends did that, I would smash that person. :)
(+1)what a fucking retard, who does she think she is breaking and entering AND destroying your shit?
(-2)I don't think it was like that. Your friend was just trying to do a nice thing and redecorate your room. If you really feel that bad about it, you could go do that to her while she's on a trip?
(0)say fuck you were not friends any more friendship ends right here
(+1)your friend is an idiot lol.
(+3)Whether OP's friend was trying to do a nice thing for them or not, the ends do not justify the means. Many crimes are probably committed with good intentions. Breaking and entering is breaking and entering. Vandalism is vandalism. Even if OP's friend did have permission to paint her room, she should clean up her own mess no matter how small or how big, and offer to replace anything that was damaged in the process.
OP, you have a bunch of psycho friends who obviously have no concept of property or privacy. I don't know of any way anyone could sugar coat this to make it not seem wrong.
(0)sue her!!
the hell with being social ur friends a lunatic
(0)paint ur friend a hideous color and tell her she's ungrateful! that'll teach her
