Today, I got home from work, and saw a note on the counter my roomate left saying "Sorry about the basement." I then went into the basement, and found that it was flooded. My TV, Xbox360, mini-fridge, and couch were all destroyed. Good thing he tried to stop the leak with scotch tape. FML

Then the water will wash away the evidence when you murder him and throw him down there.

hahaha. smartest thig ive heard all day.

#63 - On 08/28/2009 at 12:07am by Scorpitarrius

#44 is either a troll or very jealous, because I obviously got a ton of compliments for that. Not to mention the fact he got buried. Haha, you lose, #44.

#73 - On 08/29/2009 at 3:36am by Intoxicunt

Kill him! Omg FYL

#78 - On 02/13/2010 at 10:42pm by Dunebuggy569

Hey, it's like 80 degrees outside. He did you a favor.

Maybe the OP can swim down there.

#3 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:20pm by screwtaylor

80 degrees? that' nothing.

anyway, FYL OP, that really sucks.

#7 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:27pm by deni_kaos

I was about to say... Is 80 degrees hot? I'm from Florida. 80 degrees is a good day here.

#12 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:34pm by turnedoffTVgrey

She didn't really say 80 is hot, just that it would be good to go for a swim.
I'm from Florida too! FL FTW!

#14 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:37pm by Intoxicunt

80 degrees Celsius will burn shit up though

#23 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:10pm by canucksrule88

That makes more sense I guess. Where in FL?

#26 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:33pm by turnedoffTVgrey

Fort Walton Beach. I loved it. Went back last Christmas to visit. I want to move back. Tennessee is HELL.

#29 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:59pm by Intoxicunt

That sucks. I'm from Tallahassee. Capital city! Is Tennessee bad because of all of the country folk? Because that's like 90% of what is here too.

P.S. I just realized we could have said these things over the private message feature. Message me sometime if you want. Hope you get to come home soon :)

#38 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:25pm by turnedoffTVgrey

Yeah, today it was 94. Palm Beach sucks.

#49 - On 08/27/2009 at 6:13pm by kindofgocrazy

so truee

#52 - On 08/27/2009 at 7:15pm by thatsjustdandy

we get it, Florida's hot

#57 - On 08/27/2009 at 9:53pm by djb23

When the water saw the Xbox 360, it turned 360 degrees and walked away...
JK but sorry for your loss OP

#4 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:22pm by gnbfd

if it turned 360 degrees its still going straight....

Anyways, Duct tape is where its at
Roommate fails for using scotch tape

#5 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:24pm by canucksrule88

rofl #4 less xbox, more math.

#45 - On 08/27/2009 at 5:52pm by jklol2

#5, one word for you.






WIN.

#46 - On 08/27/2009 at 5:52pm by captain_cookie

it's supposed to be stupid, I think it either originated or became popular on world of warcraft forums. It annoyed the hell out of people :P

#62 - On 08/27/2009 at 11:49pm by stereopump

Hell yes! If the Xbox weren't destroyed, he could have the ultimate party.
Games WHILE swimming!

#6 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:24pm by Intoxicunt

jsut rip his head off once you see him around

#8 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:28pm by panpanscow

Holy crap I would kill that man. Seriously, light his hair on fire and throw him down the stairs, and as he drowns in the flooded basement of dispare, throw down the things he loves so that he might drown in his tears as well.

#9 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:30pm by tddygrmlov

nah... I'd go with something dramatic :]

#43 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:56pm by mercyFML

That's what happens when you room with an idiot.

#10 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:32pm by easton_87

I agree. Your life sucks, but you most likely picked that roommate meaning you should have known what kind of person he was and what he would do in certain situations.

#17 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:47pm by TheTruth1428

make him replace everything along with repairs of the bacement, duha

#11 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:33pm by Smardel

Hey! at least now you have a indoor pool :)

#13 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:36pm by XxCoolPersonxX

That is why they make renter's insurance.

#15 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:38pm by DaBombb316

Lol, here in Arizona, quite a few people would appreciate a flooded basement, minus the destroyed xbox, tv, fridge and couch. =_= sorry, fyl.

#16 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:46pm by AugustBlue

well hopefully you are responsible and have renter's or home owner's insurance.

#18 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:50pm by lrb081

WHOO! I got mentioned in a comment.
Too bad you can't say the same for your hair and erection, old man.
Kidding, kidding.
:)

#22 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:10pm by Intoxicunt

I'm with plex on this one. For all we know it wasn't the roommates fault one bit. Hell, it might even be the OP's fault.

#25 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:29pm by genius_man16

Damm... gotta agree w/ Plexi... not going down as a good day...

This FML proves that FML NEEDs a third button!!
We need a peace rally chant... what rhyms with 'button'??!??

#27 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:41pm by kukopia

Mutton.
Cuttin'.

Or you could do like a choice with voice rhyme. Classic.

#30 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:00pm by Intoxicunt

Your room mate is an idiot.

#21 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:08pm by 24788

YDI for having a 360

& no I'm not a troll :P

#24 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:17pm by sublime93

wellll....saying YDI just because the OP owns an Xbox pretty much makes you a troll...at least on this comment you are, anyway.

#31 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:01pm by mcsnelly

And you're a troll feeder. Why you gotta do that? It reflects poorly on you, ya know.

#37 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:19pm by kukopia

I was just commenting (calmly). Feeding would be if I got mad and started saying he was SOOO DUMB!!!!!!!! or whatever for saying YDI for that reason or if I'd started arguing over what game console is best. I was merely informing this commenter that, although he/she claimed not to be a troll, he/she, in fact, is one.

#41 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:52pm by mcsnelly

Xbox360 for the fail anyway, it wuda probs got red eye b4 the flood. but fyl for everything else :(

#28 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:51pm by Raheemdplayer

You dont keep things like that in a basement -.-

#32 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:02pm by LordKoin772

Uh, some people use the basement as a bedroom or an activity room.

#34 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:05pm by eastmanwolf

I do!
My room, a bathroom, and the den are all in the basement.
Not his fault if part of his house is underground.
If it was a flood due to burst pipes, it could've happened anywhere in the house.

#36 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:10pm by Intoxicunt

nonono! duct tape fixes EVERYTHING! not scotch, geeze.

#33 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:04pm by Th217

Look at the bright side! You don't have a 360 anymore! Now you can get a good video game console instead of that trash!

#35 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:07pm by TheLetterZero

sue him

#1 you just made my day

#40 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:42pm by railfan

WTF on the xbox trash talk? Yo mama plays Call of Duty. But she calls it callin'doodee. so there. pfffftt. xD

#42 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:53pm by mercyFML

#65 - On 08/28/2009 at 12:51am by shizzitsabear

#72 - On 08/28/2009 at 8:26pm by hardskrew

#48 - On 08/27/2009 at 6:07pm by jakebabic15

Whoever said turn 360 degrees and walk away, l2troll.

#50 - On 08/27/2009 at 6:17pm by viral

bummer man I would cry if I lost my 360

#51 - On 08/27/2009 at 6:19pm by Bravesman16

HA 80 degrees? it gets to about 105 here in Texas....

#53 - On 08/27/2009 at 8:21pm by kc2

Um, if your basement's been flooded, an xbox and a ruined couch are the LEAST of your worries.

#54 - On 08/27/2009 at 8:40pm by echarperouge

What a moron.

I mean, who the fuck uses scotch tape to fix leaks?

Duct tape does it right.

Remember, "if you can't duct it, fuck it"

#56 - On 08/27/2009 at 9:32pm by Mr_Sharkings

whats your gt?

#59 - On 08/27/2009 at 10:29pm by asdfghjkl321

A good thing indeed!

#60 - On 08/27/2009 at 11:00pm by iFruit

#66 - On 08/28/2009 at 1:19am by YamahaMama09

Point of advice: Whenever your roommate leaves you a note beginning "Sorry about...", you have all rights to kick him in the groin.

#67 - On 08/28/2009 at 1:32am by JRSpaniel
