Today, I came home to find that my roommate had done the laundry. At first, I was very appreciative. However, I wasn't so thankful when I found out she brought home the wrong basket from the laundromat. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to pick up my laundry from the communal machines in my apartment building. When I got there, all my clothes were neatly folded on top of the dryer. I was impressed, until I realized half of the pile wasn’t mine. I'd been carrying someone else’s underwear up to my apartment. FML
Today, I came home and saw my roommate had taken out the garbage for the first time in the three years we have lived in the same house. Unfortunately, the bag of laundry I had by the door was taken out with it as well. FML
Today, I picked up my laundry from the wash-and-fold and proceeded to put everything away. I noticed a hand towel that wasn't mine and made a mental note to return it; turned out they'd given me someone else's boxers as well. My boyfriend doesn't believe me. FML
Today, I did laundry for the first time in weeks. Feeling productive, I dumped everything in, including what I thought was my pile of towels. Turns out, I washed (and shrunk) my roommate’s $200 wool sweater. She found out when I proudly showed her how “clean” everything looked. FML
Today, I went to do my laundry. Having no laundry bag, I put clothes in a suitcase and headed to the basement. When my roommate saw me, she burst into tears with happiness. FML
Today, I went to the laundromat. I put a load in the dryer and walked away to check on my other load. When I came back, I saw a homeless man putting his dirty, wet underwear in the dryer with my clean clothes. FML
Today, after putting a bag of dirty laundry in the laundry room to wait for an open washer, I came back to find a "free stuff" sign on all of my expensive jeans, new towels, and favorite sweatshirts. The bag was over half empty. FML
Today, I finally got around to doing laundry. The washing machines in my condominium building take about an hour to do a load. When I returned to throw my clothes in a dryer, I realized they were never washed in the first place. I used my card and detergent to pay for another person's laundry. FML
Today, at the laundromat. I loaded a huge load into the top dryer, put all the quarters in, and started the bottom one. I realized my mistake when I came to check on it. FML
Today, I found a pair of women's underwear in the laundry that wasn't mine. I confronted my boyfriend about it. They were his. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Disagree. It should be your main priority to get your own mother ****** clothes from the laundramat.. Like I could understand a middle schoolers but considering the OP said room mate I am guessing college and above. Or boarding school.

Agree with Averizzle. How does that even happen? Both the roommate and the person whose laundry she stole would have to be incredibly absent-minded. I would freak if anyone else touched my clothes at a laundromat.

I like to think that this FML is a symbol for the modern world. The 'basket' actually means the 'kid'. By saying one had the right 'basket' at first but returned with the wrong one is like saying one had a white kid at the start and returned with a black one. This FML is trying to tell us people bring the wrong kid home all the time. Cleverly written. :)

This. Though i suppose if you count the roommate who now feels horrible for the error, that makes three.

Eep. When I replied to this one it said thi was a FML for two people: OP and the person who has OP's clothes.

I think it means OP's roommate went to do the laundromat and brought home the wrong basket. But still cleverly written

Did you get anything good?

I don't know why you are upset -- any random shit is probably better looking and of higher quality than the cheap, ill-fitting rags you throw on. The person who gets the FML is the sucker that ends up with your crap.

What if her clothes were very expensive but not so expensive that they require dry-cleaning?
perdix 31
Possible, but leaving expensive clothes at a laundromat doesn't really add up. What if she needed "special" clothes as if she were very tall or fat or needed a special pouch sewn in to hold her colostomy bag? Think about that. . . hmmmmm.
