Today, a tiny worm was wriggling across the screen of my Mac laptop. I tried to wipe it away with my thumb, but it just kept crawling. Turns out the worm lives *inside* my screen, beneath the glass. FML

Today, I saw a spot on my computer screen. I tried to use my finger to rub it off. Then, I tried using my nail. Then I tried to windex it off. I continued scratching at it with my nail. A half hour and one scratched screen later, I realized the spot was part of the webpage I was looking at. FML

Today, at work, a lady came in to have her glasses fixed. When she opened her case, an earwig crawled out. Instead of trying to kill it, she just left it and watched as it crawled over my desk and behind my computer. I later found the earwig in my hair. FML

Today, about to fall asleep, a bug started buzzing behind the screen to my window. Losing my sanity, I punched the screen, forgetting all about the glass. I now have a cracked window and one still annoying bug. FML

Today, I was reading in my bed, and my cat was lying on my chest. I noticed something white on my cat's leg. I'm far-sighted and wasn't wearing my glasses, so I didn't see what it was. I touched it and put on my glasses. Turns out it was a worm hanging out of my cat's anus. It started wiggling. FML

Today, I was sitting on my couch when I felt something weird underneath me. I got up, thinking I'd sat on my phone or something. Wrong. I'd sat on a live mouse. FML

Today, I bit into a cereal bar and thought the inside was oddly damp. I took a look at it and saw a maggot worm wriggling around. Its friend was in my mouth. FML

Today, I was messing around on my laptop by drawing on the screen with a marker pen. When it came time to clean it off, it wouldn't budge. Now I have a full beard and mustache etched permanently on my computer screen. FML

Today, I found out that worms in apples aren't something that you just see in cartoons. FML

Today, while trying to get my attention, my dog got her nail stuck in a usb port in my laptop. She freaked out and ran off, dragging it off my lap and through the house before if came off. Her nail was only slightly chipped- my laptop now has a cracked screen. FML

They are not as much worms are tiny flies, they are attracted to the heat of the screen, if you have a powerfull desk lamp, you can place it next to the side of the screen, turn the computer of for a few hours so the screen cools down. The lamp's heat will attract them and they will wiggle out of microscopic holes in the side of the screen :)

This happens to my tv. It should just find its way out after a while.

You know what they say: "When there's a worm, thou shall find his friends." Well, they don't say that, but you probably should get your laptop checked. Good luck OP! Or you could always become friends with your little worm buddy and name him Steve.

The wall was too high as you can see No matter how he tried he could not break free And the worms ate into his brain

I think I'll take it to the Apple programmers to tell them I spotted a bug they missed. [FML Apple/bug writer here...]

This might sound weird, but are you absolutely certain it's a live worm? I ask because it reminds me of some friends in college who wrote a program designed to make an incredibly realistic virtual spider scurry across the screen at periodic intervals, and then deployed the program onto the laptop of another friend, as a prank.
