Today, good news! The guitar I have been saving up for, for 5 months, finally arrived. It came inside a beautiful black and white case, and impossible to get into without the key. They didn't pack the key. FML

I agree, your life sucks (19656) - you totally deserved it (1285)

FYL for having to wait another week for them send a key! Oh my god, life sucks!! /end sarcasm

#9 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:27pm by cackle

Pick the lock.

#15 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:36pm by bugmenotmofo

I had a friend who suicided for just this reason. It is a big deal. I mean, this is the guitar he had been saving up for, for 5 months.

#17 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:41pm by GreenHacker

Fake. Pic or it didn't happen.

#48 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:24pm by ruben7467

agree with number 9, no big deal at all... earlier this summer my $1,000 new windsurfing sailboard came beautifully packed and they forgot to pack the fin, so I *gasp* called them and they sent down the missing essential part. No big deal.

heheh 17

#57 - On 11/03/2009 at 11:50pm by MagicMeds

never ever buy a guitar without having played it. (thus, don't internet-order it.) YDI for that exact reason.

#76 - On 11/04/2009 at 8:45am by A83

Of the suicide?

This is why you make your own comment, dude.

#93 - On 11/07/2009 at 4:06pm by bandaidface

What do you mean by of the suicide? Your comment makes no sense.

#95 - On 11/07/2009 at 5:29pm by GreenHacker

well that's not good news to me.

#2 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:17pm by whatevaaaa

Quite Obviously the OP is Dr. Farnsworth, but i didn't know he played a guitar.

#88 - On 11/05/2009 at 2:13am by rick_james_b17ch

Dr. Farnsworth would say good news everyone!

#91 - On 11/06/2009 at 2:25pm by Anteezy

lolz dr.farzworth is oldd right now in my head all i can hear is "good news everyone" repeating

#92 - On 11/06/2009 at 8:35pm by stpanimalcrulety

I'm sure you'll get it out somehow.

#3 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:18pm by Noxic

That's what she said!

#18 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:45pm by bean_dawg

That was a good that's what she said.

#38 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:18pm by HahaYDI

I usually hate when people say "that's what she said", but this one made me laugh.

#60 - On 11/04/2009 at 12:18am by dudeitsdanny

just call them and they will send you one duhh

#4 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:19pm by sweetspicegirl

Just call the company. DUHHHHHH.

#5 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:20pm by A71689

You could probably get it opened without damage at a locksmith's. It'll cost you and the situation sucks, but you're not totally screwed.

#6 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:21pm by lancaster355

And this is FML why? They forgot to send you the key. Call a locksmith and have them make you a key. Or call them and make them overnight you a key at their expense for not shipping it to you in the first place.

#7 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:23pm by sydefx

double post.

#8 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:26pm by sydefx

Most lockable guitar cases use the same universal key.

#10 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:27pm by allmidnighteyes

I doubt your life SUCKS because they forgot to send you a key that opens a guitar you've been saving up for 5 months. Anyone with common sense would call the company and they'll send you the key at no expense. The only thing that sucks is that you just have to be more patient and wait for the key to arrive.

#11 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:27pm by NotAlwaysFML

Looks like it's Air Guitar again for you. Wahnn-waahhn /pedal ]:

#12 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:27pm by mercyFML

Awesome number 12~!

#74 - On 11/04/2009 at 5:24am by mirror_opposite

you can take things like this to a locksmith.....i know from personal experience....

#13 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:31pm by purplhaze88

What if he brought a receipt for the purchase? Would that eliminate the problem you had?

I agree with the people who are saying to call the company or the seller, though. That's probably a better solution.

#26 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:33pm by lancaster355

If you open it and find nothing after you get the key , you might post another FML , a much better one.

#14 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:32pm by teddyddet

LOL I agree.

#16 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:37pm by sydefx

use a screwdriver, unscrew or break the lock.

#19 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:48pm by sfgfan10

I would have cried if I were you:(

#20 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:48pm by ChristineAnn

YDI for getting a guitar.

Get a haircut, buy some nice clothes, and start paying attention in high school.

#21 - On 11/03/2009 at 7:52pm by blalien

LOL! BEST. REPLY. EVER.

#22 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:03pm by sydefx

it's not so nice to envy someone for something you can't do :)

#23 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:05pm by fleurs_du_mal

What if he is already out of high school? What if he doesn't have long hair and what if he does have nice clothes? I know plenty of boys who look appropriate and they play the guitar. They may not act mature but just because they play the guitar doesn't mean they look like rockstars. People blame our generation but they never stop to think about who the hell raised us. This would probably be why your child is telling you to fuck off and leave them alone. If I were you, I'd take thier advice.

#32 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:50pm by Tigg3r

Whaaaaaa Whaaaaaa Whaaaaaa.

I don't care how old you are or what gender you are.. Will you marry me? =O

#62 - On 11/04/2009 at 12:24am by dudeitsdanny

Call the company that you bought it from! You'll probably get the key for it soon.

#24 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:07pm by hellomeli712

so... CALL THE COMPANY. jeez. don't make a big deal.

#25 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:10pm by mastory96

Dude, I feel your pain. lol

#27 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:34pm by Pretty_Tied_Up

You can pick a guitar, but you can't pick a lock?

Maybe you can pick your nose while they mail you a key.

#28 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:34pm by perdix

He could always pick a better reason to whine about why his life is fucked.

#79 - On 11/04/2009 at 9:45am by MaddogTotten

I feel ya man I ordered a brand new Gibson Les Paul with a sunburst finish. it came in a nice case to. mother fuckers didn't send a key. and I wanted to play that thing then and there.

#29 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:35pm by jw90

YDI for buying a Les Paul, SGs are way better

#83 - On 11/04/2009 at 11:27am by wyld3fyr3

Don't be silly. They sent the key. It's inside the case, didn't you look? /sarcasm

#30 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:37pm by RHOPKINS13

YDI for using sarcasm.
Don't complain about it, get the key.

#31 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:43pm by fatherpunk

Where is this sarcasm making him deserve it? He said good news, but that was because his guitar arrived. THEN the bad part.

#73 - On 11/04/2009 at 5:02am by Chunchunchun

Why would the case come locked? Idk, just seems weird to me.....when I ordered my guitar it didn't come locked. Totally not saying this is fake or anything, just seems weird that's all.

#34 - On 11/03/2009 at 8:59pm by UGFTW

crowbar. make them send you a new case

#35 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:12pm by saculmot

Impossible is nothing. I'm sure you can get the case open if you really want to.

#36 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:14pm by FerrariCake

Ha, Ha I just got 3 broken glasses from eBay...so we're sort of having a similar day FOL

#39 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:20pm by baknbits

They obviously didn't want anyone stealing it, so they threw the keys in the case then locked it.

#40 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:28pm by Vonuc

dude really not that great, but it does still suck. i would be pissed too.

#41 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:33pm by ForgottenRemix0

*finally?

#42 - On 11/03/2009 at 9:53pm by DinosAndAliens22

Maybe you should call them? Or have someone write a letter, as you clearly have a poor grasp on grammar.

#43 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:03pm by youEQUALtosser

dude just use the force on the lock, Luke.

#44 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:10pm by sydd

Every problem has an answer! Or in this case a key! Don't fret!

#45 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:19pm by mauseum

Haha. I don't know if your use of fret was an intentional pun or not, but I still giggled.

#55 - On 11/03/2009 at 11:26pm by AndelleRae

Hehe, yes i meant to, and I thought nobody would understand! : )

#86 - On 11/04/2009 at 11:41pm by mauseum

s u c k s

#46 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:19pm by eat9zoo

So? Just call/e-mail them and get them to send you the key. Not a FML.

#47 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:24pm by darkmis1

that blows!!!!

#49 - On 11/03/2009 at 10:38pm by Satans_Taint

FYL. I mean obviously it's not the worst that could happen but it still sucks. They should send you the key rush delivery and not make you pay for it.

#51 - On 11/03/2009 at 11:05pm by allihall127

what kind of guitar is it? i got into my buddies les pal case when he forgot the code to one of them and reset it in under 2 min with only the aide of a flashlight.

#52 - On 11/03/2009 at 11:10pm by armyman56m

Those locks are shitty as hell.

#56 - On 11/03/2009 at 11:37pm by anonacs

woopty doo juss tell them to send it to u no biggie

#58 - On 11/04/2009 at 12:09am by dc_elite

OMFG YOU ARE SO FUCKED UP LIKE YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO GET THE GUITAR SINCE THE KEYS ARE LOST FOREVAR OMGOMGOMGOMG

#61 - On 11/04/2009 at 12:19am by lolwatlol

since its there mistake you can probably have them ship it over night and if you sound angry enough can score some picks or strngs

#64 - On 11/04/2009 at 12:50am by ZiggyMorrison

haha. sucks for you!

#65 - On 11/04/2009 at 1:12am by DJR

SMASH THE DAMN CASE OPEN! providing that you do it just enough so it won't damage your guitar :D

#66 - On 11/04/2009 at 1:27am by EveryDayJackAss

That's assuming the guitar was still in there (yikes!). On the other hand, they'll probably send you a spare if you request it. In other words, spend less time on FML and more time on the Customer Service Line. Derp.

#67 - On 11/04/2009 at 1:36am by blastvortex

I really hope that doesn't happen to me....I've been saving up for my guitar for nearly a year! Man, that really sucks!

#68 - On 11/04/2009 at 1:56am by klutzy_145

Oh no! Delayed gratification!

#69 - On 11/04/2009 at 1:56am by therealmike

lol, the "good news" reminds me of Futurama

#70 - On 11/04/2009 at 2:33am by trizdan

Haha me too!

#75 - On 11/04/2009 at 5:42am by Sazula

Either you make a ridiculously small wage, or you bought the most awesome guitar ever. Easy solution either way - force your way in to the case or have them ship a key.

If it is that nice of a guitar, you didn't pay for the bitchin case, you payed for the bitchin guitar. Just force the lock or cut in to the case. If you "can't live" another day without playing it then quit being a whiny little bitch and get it out of there.

If you payed more for the case than the guitar is worth to you, and you saved for 5 months, then you fail on too many levels for me or anyone else to help you. If that is your case, then just off yourself now and save everyone else the wasted time of having to deal with you.

#71 - On 11/04/2009 at 4:41am by MaddogTotten

One of my all-time favorite quotes anywhere:
"I can't swallow that!"
"Good news then, its a suppository."

#72 - On 11/04/2009 at 4:43am by MaddogTotten

nice

#84 - On 11/04/2009 at 11:30am by wyld3fyr3

not worthy, its called patience

#77 - On 11/04/2009 at 9:35am by thisishilarious

Seriosuly...how is this an FML? Quit being a whiny bitch over your guitar and call the company you ordered it from to get the fucking key.

#78 - On 11/04/2009 at 9:37am by crash52181

They send the key in the mail. It'll prob be there tomorrow.
Pull up your knickers and wait a day. You waited 5 mos, what's one more day?

#80 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:13am by kukopia

They sent the key, it's inside the case. Just open... Oh wait.

Sucker! Just take it to a locksmith dumbass.

#81 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:24am by blueknight1st

haha thats funny. but i agree with #81

#82 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:43am by soadgorillaz

No key you say?

STOP!Hammer time!

#85 - On 11/04/2009 at 8:04pm by SGTSlaughter

I got an SG last week. and yeah. pick the lock. or get a locksmith. no big deal

#87 - On 11/05/2009 at 1:21am by jamminguitarist

learn to pick a lock retard.. it isn't that hard.. espcially on guitar cases

#89 - On 11/05/2009 at 2:36am by Paige_Nicole10

Gee, 5 whole months. I guess that is a long time for the "instant gratification" generation. One more week won't kill you.

#90 - On 11/05/2009 at 5:43pm by ragsy

Who said he was young? He could be 50, dumbass.
