Today, I realized how much I'm on the computer. At school I tried to "CTRL+Z" on something I wrote down on my paper. FML

Now all the petulant "first" haters are going to comment on your post, throwing petty insults at you while sounding like douches themselves. Care to comment now?

*Throws "jackass"*
*Throws "fucktard"*

How am I doing?

#15 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:59am by Intoxicunt

AHAHA Literally made me laugh outloud!! I hope theres not much time until that starts to happen xD

#55 - On 10/01/2009 at 4:26pm by Mihir

Just going to say, since FML has been allowing all these FMLs moderated and selected by this Kevin Nealon, all of the FMLs he's been accepting have been terrible FMLs.

#75 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:16pm by youreanidiot

I've done this before.

#76 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:39pm by Duckasaurus

Lmao! :P

Ditto to EVERYTHING you said.

I get so disappointed when I realize I can't use ctrl + F in textbooks.

#10 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:37am by TheTragicReturn

+1, especially when there's no index in the book.

#17 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:00am by TC1

I love CTRL + Z. It's a life saver. I wouldn't say FYL though. You know how to use computer shortcuts. You are already way ahead in life compared to a lot of people. lol.

#7 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:31am by wilshires1

you got that right I don't even know what 'cntrl f or cntrl z' would do...

#143 - On 03/10/2010 at 11:20am by EmmaMarieCullen

um....
so computers are rad. I use mine 24/7. and I'm not fat yay

#8 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:34am by lakeylove

Haha don't feel bad I do that A lot when I am drawing free hand

#9 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:35am by suziie

Not an FML. I bring my laptop everywhere with me. When I don't have it I experience crazy withdrawal symptoms...

#11 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:45am by delfinofrank

My version of this is all the times I've misspelled a word accidentally while writing an essay, and half expected a red squiggly line to appear underneath it. FML

#12 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:46am by sonicmega

lol thats okay, i've done that alot =P

#13 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:49am by manderella15

Me too XD
Makes m feel like not such a loser to see that others do that too

#90 - On 10/01/2009 at 8:40pm by Emma_91

yawn. think you're the first to come up with this lame joke?

Just wait until you start *dreaming* in your favourite programming language.

#14 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:58am by foobarbaz

My hero

#135 - On 10/05/2009 at 11:39pm by DorkusD

You should have pressed ctrl + Z after you typed this FML

#19 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:13am by john_bell

I understand! Once instead of laughing at something funny...I said LOL

#20 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:13am by turtlebun777

your point? I've double tapped the space bar on the computer to type a period because that's how I do it on my iPod Touch.

#21 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:23am by PenNameHere

This one really IS stupid. Someone who is this ridiculously dumb deserves to have their FML posted, not OP.

#80 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:58pm by wienerwagon

to make you feel better, I scan all of my textbooks, run OCR through it so I can search for the text, and save them as searchable PDFs on the computer.

I can't even read books anymore.

#22 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:26am by blland

One time, I got lost in the middle of nowhere. The one thing I was thinking was "I wish I could fucking ctrl+Z out of here."

#23 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:41am by eldoritoman

I've heard that an eraser or whiteout works better

#24 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:43am by sar86

It's ok. When I'm hand writting essays when I write "you" I put a "u" instead and I get marks taken off. It sucks'

#25 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:43am by movies12

That's because you're an idiot.

#29 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:20pm by Syn

damn windows. t'would be command+z if you'd have a mac

#26 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:55am by nypd613

Well at least you HAVE a computer!

#27 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:03pm by Cristaderzi

CTRL + moron = YOU

#28 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:10pm by donkey_hang_down

I wish this was Facebook so I could "like" that.

#30 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:20pm by ZacSlap

Dont worry, I "Ctrl+F" all the time.

#31 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:29pm by Dilpickle1

Bet your mother keeps trying to Ctrl+Z something she made with her uterus.

#32 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:43pm by toink

BURRN lol that was mean but good insult XD

#106 - On 10/02/2009 at 12:30am by carlos177567

You're not alone. _>)>

#33 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:44pm by Squeekems

I've said LOL by accident instead of actually laughing. Lol!

#34 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:45pm by iFruit

This is lame. Come on, Kevin!!

#35 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:57pm by Flounder

this is more of a humorous anicdote than a fml!

#36 - On 10/01/2009 at 12:57pm by Zoa

I DO THIS ALL THE TIME TOO!! haha i wish there was really an undo button for life!

#37 - On 10/01/2009 at 1:01pm by honutattoo

...Is it just me, or does this resemble a dA artist's mini comic, with the exact same topic? It was the person that started the original memes, if I remember correctly...

#38 - On 10/01/2009 at 1:09pm by Sakeyaki

:D
You should feel honored: Kevin Nealon picked this!
Lucky.

#39 - On 10/01/2009 at 1:47pm by itspretzelday

You know...You could of just pressed "CTRL + Y"...

#40 - On 10/01/2009 at 1:53pm by BluffMuffin

That is very sad.

#42 - On 10/01/2009 at 2:13pm by GriefBacon

why is there no "this one's just lame" button?

#44 - On 10/01/2009 at 2:23pm by thelegendarystm

Umm Donkey how is he a moron???
Maybe you should clean your mirror cause geeZ really!!!!!

#45 - On 10/01/2009 at 2:27pm by Cristaderzi

Thank you, you are so sweet

#48 - On 10/01/2009 at 3:32pm by donkey_hang_down

#46 - On 10/01/2009 at 2:30pm by BunnyDrastic

I read this before. Be original next time, really >:(

#47 - On 10/01/2009 at 3:25pm by NobodysLover

Your dumb!

#50 - On 10/01/2009 at 3:40pm by Bloodknight

#51 - On 10/01/2009 at 3:46pm by atypicalartist

#56 - On 10/01/2009 at 4:33pm by Cristaderzi

Hug and a Xannie? I like you even more now

#74 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:08pm by donkey_hang_down

Xanax isn't an antidepressant, it's a benzodiazepine used for anxiety.

#79 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:56pm by wienerwagon

Thank you for the science lesson... AHHH the miracle of technology!

#115 - On 10/02/2009 at 10:35am by donkey_hang_down

Don't worry, I've done that before.

#58 - On 10/01/2009 at 4:34pm by DeathShad0

this isnt really an fml imo.

#59 - On 10/01/2009 at 4:44pm by deadmandan91

Ive done that before exept i was doing a word search and was looking for control f my friends still talk about it

#60 - On 10/01/2009 at 4:56pm by corang

I do that all the time! Today I was reading a magazine and I tried to do CTRL-F.

#62 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:00pm by itrustedsnapeHPB

sorry, but what exactly does CTRL+Z do? i am not very computer savvy...

#63 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:01pm by Zwick

CTRL+Z is the undo button... Now, THATS what life needs.... xD

#121 - On 10/02/2009 at 7:54pm by kyleenstar

That's no FYL! It's awesome! Computers geeks FTW!

#64 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:11pm by Chuck1993

how is this an FML? i do this a lot. when i make a mistake that's my first instinct reaction. then i stop laugh at my self then wish life was like a computer. i guess it depends on what you do on the computer. if you spend all day looking for porn because your lonely well i guess that's an fml. but seriously i go to university to study computers. i need a computer for most of my homework. my future career will revolve around computers, my job now uses a computer. all my spare time that im at home i use a computer. hell sometimes i use the computer at my boyfriends house.

OP if you think you spend to much time on the computer then do something about it. this isn't an fml that you can't do anything about. go outside or something.

#65 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:16pm by schmidtty

It's called the tetris effect, wiki it.

#66 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:26pm by lolownedimo

I do that too. Damn, life should have CTRL+F.

#67 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:36pm by ad_infinitum

oh god i've been there....

#68 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:37pm by spoooner

I tryed control c. once

#69 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:40pm by moviemaniac97

hasn't this allready been posted?

#70 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:42pm by TwilghtLuvr13

How do you try to CTRL + Z irl, when writing? Seriously?

#71 - On 10/01/2009 at 5:43pm by DameGreyWulf

haha. NEEEEEERD.

#72 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:00pm by maddi27

i do that if im drawing on paper lol

#73 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:05pm by Shewn

This is so fucking stupid. Everyone's done that, it's not an FML.

#77 - On 10/01/2009 at 6:46pm by wienerwagon

there was a fml just like this...

#81 - On 10/01/2009 at 7:02pm by ilikeu12

Omg!! Iv done that! Haha

#83 - On 10/01/2009 at 7:08pm by Danzergirl1

how is this an fml? i do this all the time, who cares.

#84 - On 10/01/2009 at 7:08pm by andreaco

Kevin Nealon, you are a twat.

#85 - On 10/01/2009 at 7:47pm by DJ_Chutfield

this is a duplicate :P

#86 - On 10/01/2009 at 8:06pm by WTFpancakes

I don't blame you, I once tried to CTRL + F to find a DVD on my shelves.

#88 - On 10/01/2009 at 8:27pm by BLiNdZoRz

hahaha I do that too. dont worry about it. not a big deal.

#89 - On 10/01/2009 at 8:30pm by xOpheliacx

I hate to break the news to you, but you're a moron. If your brain cannot even tell the difference between writing and using a keyboard then you need to go ahead and get your tubes tied so you don't infest the rest of the world with greater numbers of morons. Don't adopt kids either, you will most likely, through moronic parenting, reduce the IQ of some poor child to your level.

#91 - On 10/01/2009 at 8:51pm by stanzskin

Oh my god that hpnd to me today. I wanted to show my friend a funny text on my phone and opened my menu and went straight to the web browser by instinct.

#95 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:23pm by leksileks

ahahahahaha i do that all the time.

#96 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:27pm by your_mother

Ever wander around your house looking for somthing thinking to your self, "Real life needs a Ctrl+F"?

#99 - On 10/01/2009 at 10:54pm by Voids

Obviously it happed to other people, so why assume that it's fake? And why do you have to say so? Why don't you just leave the FML for other people to enjoy and shut the hell up?

#104 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:33pm by kyleenstar

Ahahahahha this is plain hilarious.

#100 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:09pm by SilentOwning

I thought I was the only one who thought copy and paste would be so much easier than writing all of the note out. Haha

#101 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:13pm by sarahsometimes13

Haha. I'm so glad I'm not the only one who's done this... As well as trying CTRL+F on textbooks... Damn. xD

#102 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:20pm by kyleenstar

join the club
i'll be reading something and then make a motion to press 'CTRL + F'.
wasnt exactly my proudest moment

#103 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:24pm by shawhsay

FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!

#105 - On 10/01/2009 at 11:54pm by WolfFreak

same

#107 - On 10/02/2009 at 12:32am by carlos177567

I know how you feel. Many times during art class I've found myself wishing that real life had Ctrl+Alt+Z.

Next time try Alt+F4. :P

#108 - On 10/02/2009 at 1:30am by Ninjaface

i tried to control+f trying to find something in my text book

#109 - On 10/02/2009 at 1:50am by epikz

I bet I'm not the only one who CTRL+Z'd my keyboard to figure out what command it is...

#110 - On 10/02/2009 at 2:14am by shaerbear00

Not much of an FML. I tell people the "Ctrl-Z" story all the time! :D But yeah, I'm always trying to Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+F things in school.

#111 - On 10/02/2009 at 6:33am by Exilis

I think everyone has done that. I've even tried to ctrl+f to find stuff in my backpack. Pretty bad.

#112 - On 10/02/2009 at 8:32am by christopherdlane

today I realized how much am in to computer. I tried to "CTRL+C" the nerd sitting infront of me and then "CTRL+V" it on my paper. unfortunately I the administrator found and deleted me!fhl!!!...

#113 - On 10/02/2009 at 8:59am by Merciless

lmao

#116 - On 10/02/2009 at 11:59am by heatrider986

omg

#118 - On 10/02/2009 at 5:19pm by alypet40

That's hilarious and totally stolen from bash.org

#119 - On 10/02/2009 at 6:08pm by monkey314159

lol i did that once

#120 - On 10/02/2009 at 7:46pm by WarriPengoo

that's almost as bad as thinking "L-O-L" in response to most of the FML stories you read... lol AH!

#122 - On 10/02/2009 at 9:29pm by eastbaybunny

how sad is it thagt i do exactly the same thing every time i mess something p on paper, either bring 2 fingers down to the lower left to ctrlz, or try to goto rdit and undo...seriously...with my hands as the mouse too...*facepalm*

#123 - On 10/02/2009 at 9:32pm by madame_malfoy

hahahah omg i do that all the timee

#124 - On 10/02/2009 at 9:55pm by fuckerlife

I do this all the time.

#126 - On 10/02/2009 at 10:36pm by foryoublue94

Write ^Z on your eraser. Problem solved.

#127 - On 10/02/2009 at 11:00pm by Jernau_Gurgeh

I do that too often. I've been becoming addicted to mmo's lately and sometimes I find myself wondering where the "w" key is for me to start moving forward.

#128 - On 10/03/2009 at 12:07am by Arsenic_Cupcake

this isnt fml this is just funny :P

#129 - On 10/03/2009 at 2:05am by melyeah

this is funny
something similar happened to me. When i was writing something on paper suddenly i started looking for the enter button to submit it xD

#130 - On 10/03/2009 at 4:23pm by justbella

i agree with hairynutsack but i will say that it will be an fml when he starts alt F4ing things

#133 - On 10/04/2009 at 2:08pm by SS_Anon

Sadly, I've done that so many times....... People laugh at me because I get confused while trying to sketch something, because I'm looking for my keyboard.

#134 - On 10/05/2009 at 12:54am by Cindex

Whoaaa!! No way, I do that too!
Once, I was supposed to write an essay, and I wrote my screen name and password and was like...whoa...wait a sec.. xD

i've tried to delete and enter on paper and honestly... delete is so much easier than using an eraser. wish it was really real.

#140 - On 12/16/2009 at 5:58pm by 555MA_AM555

dumbass why dont you just undo what you did?
