Today, I accidentally spilled a big glass of water on the table, where I had some papers, my cellphone, and a box of donuts. With lightning reflexes, my sister heroically jumped forward and saved the donuts. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while working on my laptop, I accidentally spilled a glass of water. I quickly moved my laptop out of the way of the oncoming stream. It fell on the floor and broke. FML
Today, I tried to open my water bottle, which is like trying to open a pickle jar, and after several seconds, it exploded all over my desk and clothes. Then, when I was going to get paper towels and a change of clothes, I slipped on the puddle and hit my head on my desk as I came crashing down. FML
Today, I heroically caught a falling cup of coffee that I'd knocked off the counter. I thought I'd saved the day, until I realized I didn’t actually grab the cup; I'd grabbed the hot coffee directly with my bare hand. I spent the next few seconds hopping around like a maniac while everyone in the office watched. FML
Today, the alarm on my phone went off. I picked it up, hit snooze, and dropped it back on my desk without looking. I woke up an hour later to find that I had dropped it directly in a full glass of water. FML
Today, while trying to find my phone in the depths of the sheets on my bed, I gave my comforter a huge shake. A second later, I heard a crash. My phone had miraculously flown straight into the glass of water on my nightstand. Found it. FML
Today, I decided to be healthy and drink a tall glass of water whilst doing my assignment that is due in three days. I managed to spill the entire glass over my laptop. I flipped it over and used a hairdryer to dry it off. While doing that, I managed to melt my keyboard. 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, I woke up earlier to food prep for lunch later. Just as I was preparing the ingredients, I dropped a thick glass saucer on the kitchen counter and it shattered like a hail storm - everywhere in the kitchen. I ended up spending more time cleaning it out and obviously logged in to work later than usual. FML
Today, I made a delicious casserole for dinner. Just as I was about to serve it, a bowl fell from the cupboard above, exploded on the counter and made it rain tiny, sharp glass shards on my food. I can't pick them all out. FML
Today, I was in class with a water bottle on my desk. I was on my phone not paying attention, when some girl knocked it over by accident. I went to grab it, even though it was in the corner of my eye. I caught the bottle of water but I also happened to grab her ass at the same time. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

She definitely has her priorities in order.

The papers are likely ruined, but try taking apart your phone and keeping it in a bag of uncooked rice. And you still have donuts!

She defiently sounds like a hero to me

Not her fault you drop the glass of water you can't really blame her

At #36, accidents happen and don't say that kind of thing hasn't happened to you because I'm sure it's happened to a lot of people.

She saved the things that matter to her. What does she care about your papers and phone?
alysssssssa 16
I don't see anything that would have been more important to save.

That's a tricky one, I don't know what priority i'd give if it were me in that situation. If it were bacon, that'd be easy but donuts? Maybe chocolate coated donuts with sprinkles would be worth saving over a phone...

Do NOT take your phone apart. If it was in water for more than a few seconds, then carefully leaving it in uncooked rice overnight is a good idea, but be sure to not get anything jammed into the ports.

Really? I've heard you're supposed to take the battery out.
SkullsRules1 26
Yeah, Your only meant to take the battery out but not unscrew anything from your phone :)
MrSassypants 34
Wait, wait, wait! Your supposed to put in in rice? ****! I got to go remove my phone from the bowl of spice I put it in. Think it voids the warranty?

Silica gel also works wonders- you know those little packets that come in your shoes, jerky, etc.? They soak up moisture!
jigglypuff34 16
I heard if you put it in the microwave for a few minutes it'll dry right up. ;)
homesuckfucker 28
Okay. I thought #13 meant that you were supposed to leave the device completely sealed up, which is untrue. They probably have a newer phone that doesn't come apart without actually unscrewing or potentially breaking things.

That sucks, you cant just buy phones like you can with donuts
MrConcise 35
Are cell phones not bought with money anymore? Damn, I knew Verizon only wanted my soul...
Ian7890 23
I'm pretty sure he means a $500 phone is a lot more than a dozen donuts.

I'm pretty sure you've never heard of sarcasm
xSLEEPYxHEADx 22
#48, there's sarcasm on the internet!? What!?

You don't seem you know chocolate donuts
Divergentlover 10
You always save the donuts first
MrSassypants 34
I agree. Donuts are for dipping in milk, not water.

the fml said the doughnuts were in a box. tothing wouldve happened to them but the box would get a little wet.
JadeWinter 16
With great powers come great responsibilities, and she definitely put her powers of lightening reflexes to good use. Your sister is a hero.

Unless one's grammatical and/or spelling error is so terrible that it's painful to read or difficult to comprehend, let it go. Mistakes happen.
mahughes 19
what were you expecting her to save?
rdenkewicz 11
Agreed. It's not like it has her phone or her papers!
ProfessorMctitie 20
You would pick the phone and papers over doughnuts.. you must be crazy
Steve97 32
Totally worth it I mean it was a whole BOX of donuts!
Witchylady 18
Were they Krispy Creams ?

bluebluhblou 15
