Today, after three weeks of hard work, I finally finished painting my room. Apparently my 6-year-old brother thought I wasn't done and that he should help me out. I now have little red handprints all over my white walls. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finished a big painting for art class. It's also the day my little brother decided it didn't have enough puke on it. FML
Today, while I was painting, my little nephew came in and started watching me. I left to clean my brushes. When I came back into the room, my nephew had spilled paint all over the carpet making a rainbow. It took me 5 hours to clean it up. FML
Today, I finished painting my living room. I had to leave the house in a rush. When I got home, I found smears of paint all around and the carpet crusted with paint that had dried. My cat had rubbed up against the walls and tracked it around. FML
Today, while setting up for a party I was having, I put black lights into our bathroom for the cool bright, neon color you get when you pee. When I turn them on to see where I need to continue cleaning, I see many, small, yellow hand prints on the walls. I have a nine year old brother. FML
Today, I got home to the smell of permanent marker and the discovery that my roommate's little sister had drawn flower petals around every polka dot she could reach on my walls. I just put up the wallpaper last weekend. FML
Today, after nearly three weeks of hard work, I finally completed my best drawing yet, a self-portrait. I was incredibly excited to take it to class tomorrow. That is, until I came home from a walk later on, only to find my brother had drawn a stick figure on it, wanking into my face. FML
Today, it's been over a week since I started painting a mural on my bedroom wall. Turns out, I'm not as artistic as I thought, because my attempt at a serene landscape now looks more like a psychedelic nightmare. FML
Today, I was painting my bedroom walls, when I was struck with an uncontrollable bout of diarrhea. I had to watch helplessly from the en-suite bathroom as my 2 year old daughter painted a lovely picture for me, all over my new $500 sofa. FML
Today, I painted my daughter's room with the new paint we bought. It's an oil-based paint which hides all blemishes on the wall, but apparently makes me sick. I'm now throwing up everywhere, but at least the room looks good. FML
Today, I spent the afternoon painting my bedroom and was really pleased with how it turned out. When I moved the furniture back, I noticed a large patch behind the wardrobe I'd missed. The paint shop had closed, and I had no idea which shade I'd used. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Tell your visitors that they'll share the same, bloody fate if they mess with you.

Actually red hand prints on white walls sounds like a pretty stellar design. Keep positive.

Whenever you have new visitors, just show them the room, and say "and this is where we keep the demonspawn".

where did he get the red paint? do you just have a rainbow of colors sitting around? usually when I paint a room, the only color I have out is the one I purchased for the room, lol.

Maybe he/she had other things going on between... I had to put 2 coats of a color-blocking primer on before I could paint my walls- then had 2 coats of paint- so it took a LOT longer than normal. It depends on the color that was being covered, how many coats were needed, as well as how humid it was waiting for it to dry. Plus baseboards etc.

Three weeks to paint one room?! Did you try with a 1/4" brush or something?

Sorry OP, I've gotta ask. How large is that room... o.O For it to take you three weeks to paint it? If truly gigantuous - how many tiny red hands? 100? And how long will it take to redo the white paint job?
