Today, while cleaning up, I dropped a box of thumbtacks, spilling them all over the floor. As I fumbled to pick them up, the power went out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was driving home from a long day at work fixing people's electronics. When I got home, I got a call from work saying I needed to go back and help a customer with their TV again. When I got there, after an hour of driving, I realized I'd accidentally kicked the power cord out. FML
Today, I bought a pack of toothpicks. There were 500 of them. When I got home I accidentally dropped the pack. After twenty long minutes of picking them up, I dropped them again. FML
Today, I finally finished vacuuming my downstairs. Instead of finding the wall outlet and unplugging the vacuum, I triumphantly tugged the cord from across the room to release the plug from the wall. It flew at me at top speed and hit me in the face. FML
Today, I got unbelievably drunk and pissed in the corner of my room, all over a plug socket, which blew out the electrics. FML
Today, I decided to be productive and clean behind my couch. I found dust, old receipts, and one sock I thought was stolen by the universe. When I stood up proudly, I smashed my head on the shelf above. I knocked down three picture frames. All shattered. FML
Today, I was doing an online live exam with the camera on when the power suddenly went out. FML
Today, I spilled a glass of iced tea all over my desk. It trickled down the wall and fried an extension cord. FML
Today, a strong storm knocked the power out at our office. I was dismissed five hours early, had my desk locked up and was walking toward the doors to leave when the power came back on. FML
Today, after I had finished vacuuming, I ripped the cord out of the outlet and it hit me in the face cutting both my top and bottom lip. FML
Today, I almost burned the house down while changing a lightbulb. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You must have been on carpet, else you could have slid along the floor pretty easily instead of stepping. I realize the recent trend has been to post lots of puns in the comments, but here that would just be tacky.

You humped the floor at this point, right?

FYL. the best way to not hurt yourself in that situation would probably be to not lift your feet while walking, but only sliding them along the ground.

Not to be a pain in the foot or anything, but if there are puns here I'm totally in the dark about it.

Ah, this could go on forever. :] I hate to be blunt, but as glad as I am that we're all as sharp as a tack when coming up with these cutting puns, we should probably stop now before they get prickly. We don't want to get ourselves in a thorny situation.
null_fml 11
Well, I hate to poke fun, but your point kinda struck a nerve. We're not hurting anyone or stepping on anyone's toes here. But I guess it is getting a little dull, so I thought I'd just take one last stab at it before it's time for lights out.

Your words pierced me, I apologise for my painful jab. I was merely pointing out a suggestion.
