Today, my brother sent me an image by Skype, saying I really had to see it. I figured it was some kind of stupid joke, but I tried to look anyway. It wouldn't open. Turns out he thought he could just rename the ".exe" on a virus to ".jpg" and it would still run. My brother's a cretin. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my nitwit son infected our family computer with some sort of mad bastard virus after getting fooled by the promise of some non-existent Hannah Montana nudes. FML
Today, my brother thought it would be absolutely hilarious to replace my cold sore cream with superglue. FML
Today, my little brother left the house with my phone by accident. He called from his school to ask for my password so he could access his email. When he got home and gave me my phone back, while closing the open apps, my photo gallery was open. When I clicked on it, my naked selfie was open. FML
Today, my brother sent me over a dozen screenshots from his phone, because he couldn't work out why it wasn't capturing all the paint he'd managed to smear on the screen. FML
Today, I was chatting to my brother on Skype. Out of the blue, and just as I read the punchline to a hilarious joke, he said his girlfriend had been cheating on him. I couldn't stifle my side-splitting laughter, and he's been ignoring my calls since. FML
Today, while I thought my brother was playing with my new phone, he was actually texting a bunch of my friends that I have chlamydia. He deleted his texts so I wouldn't see them, and I spent a half-hour trying to figure out why I kept getting texts of shock and sympathy. We're both in our 20's. FML
Today, while I was in the shower, my older brother thought it would be funny to change the language on my phone to Serbo-Croatian. I don't know how and can't change it back. FML
Today, while I was in my room sleeping, my little brother deemed it necessary to come in and drop a book on my face. When I sat up with a now bloody nose, he looked at me, pointed, and said "You've just been Facebooked" and ran away giggling. FML
Today, I tried to prank my little brother by jumping out from behind a door to scare him. I ended up scaring myself when I caught a glimpse of my weirdly-lit reflection in a mirror mid-jump. FML
Today, I had to give an important presentation, so I checked it over one last time before taking a shower and heading out. I found out too late that my brother used that window of opportunity to replace the entire document with the N-word repeating over and over again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If only the rest of the people who made viruses were as stupid as him.

A cretin? Isn't that what you call people from Crete? So if people leave Crete, does that make them excretions?

It's a virus..... How do you **** up your computer by NOT opening a virus?

If you have a descent. virus. protection program on you computer in the overall scheme. of this you should be fine.

she is fine. the file did not open because he had labelled a program as a JPEG. she probably was able to see the source code for the virus but thats it.
screamingpanda 6
just because you can't open it doesn't mean anything. I know several people that have had a virus because of something like this.
monnanon 14
again she is fine. viruses need to be triggered or executed. they are either hidden in files that when opened trigger the virus or are bogus files themselves. ops brother changed the file to a jpeg disabling the trigger function therefore no virus.

Probably copied and pasted a command onto notepad and saved it as an exe file. Anyone can do it.
monnanon 14
wow. a command in notepad will not a virus make.unless you want a really shitty virus that does next to nothing.

Why would your brother want to send you a virus in the first place?

-sigh- I don't advise opening anything he sends you ever. If he thinks a virus is a "joke" he has a messed up sense of humor.
