Miscellaneous: Today, for my art project, I spent hours painting my whole body...

Today, for my art project, I spent hours painting my whole body in black spots with acrylic paint. I then went and stood outside in the snow, naked, so I could take pictures of it. Only then to find out the camera was out of batteries. FML

Today, after some cajoling, I finally posed naked for my long-term partner and his Polaroid camera. After saying he would cherish the intimate snapshots forever, he almost immediately forgot them on a crowded bus. FML

Today, I was lining a soccer field. I had the entire grid laid out, so I began to paint with a handheld cart. I finished the entire field without looking back once. I forgot to put paint in the cart. I walked around a field for an hour painting with air. FML

Today, I went to buy some spray paint for a project. I've never used a spray can before, so I decided to try it on paper provided. Unfortunately I didn't hold the can the right way and ended up with black, permanent, paint all over my face in the middle of a store. FML

Today, I finished a painting I'd spent 3 weeks working on for an exhibition. When I came back from lunch, my cat was perched above it on my desk. He looked at me, then down at the painting, then jumped down onto it. He slipped and smeared the wet paint everywhere, ruining the whole thing. FML

Today, I was working on a painting and went to take a sip of my tea. Instead, I took a swig of paint water. FML

Today, it was my high school graduation. I brought my camera to capture these last memories, only to discover that the batteries were dead. When I got home and went to change them, I realized they were not dead, they were just put in the wrong way. FML

Today, I was painting my mom's house, which so far had taken 12 hours over two days. All of a sudden there was a wind storm. All of the leaves stuck to the wet paint. FML

Not respected anymore

Today, as a respected artist, I was running a workshop with a bunch of rowdy college kids. I was in the middle of demonstrating a painting technique when I accidentally washed my paintbrush in my coffee instead of my paint water. They waited until I then drank from it to burst out in hysterics. FML

Today, in my art class we had to paint a nude portrait of a fat, old woman. About halfway through the piece, and while painting her fat rolls, I realized she was the only person other than myself I had ever seen naked. FML

Today, I was finishing up my art project that was due the next day. I was really tired and fell asleep on my table. Three hours later, I woke up to find my project torn to bits. I went out and saw my cat vomitting out feathers and other materials I used for my project. FML

well clearly you have a computer..webcam?? what about friends with cameras? a neighbor?

Yeah, because naturally the OP wants to lug her computer and webcam (which likely has poor quality) outside, run an extension cord inside, and set everything up in the snow to take a picture. Because that's so much easier than changing the camera's batteries.

Step 2: Prepare yourself for the photograph. Step 3: Stand outside naked in the snow. Step 1: Check the equipment to ensure it's functioning properly. Seems like your steps are out of order...

Today, my kids were playing outside when all of sudden they came running in screaming and into there room and won't say why, I looked outside to see my weird neighbor standing outside in the snow naked with black spots painted all over her, now my kids refuse to come out because "the ugly cow is going to get them", FML

Art is in the eye of the beholder; each person has a different idea of what art is. That's why a blank canvas with a small dot in the middle can fetch thousands; to someone that work was beauty, while to others it was a cheap cash-in. It just depends on your perspective. Same with music, dance, fashion, etc...
