Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was told that, although I was sick on the last day before break, they would still accept the 24 page essay that I had written. Tonight, as I went to print it out, I found that my dad had "cleaned up a bit" on my computer, including the documents from last semester. I have school tomorrow. FML
Today, I broke my dominant hand. My teacher insists we hand-write our essays. I called and asked if it was okay for me to type up the essays. She said no. I have two essays due tomorrow, which count for half my grade. FML
Today, I realized I forgot to write a 5000 word essay for my English class. I tried to be calm since I had until midnight to finish, and it was only 8pm. I typed for three hours straight,and finished the assignment. I read over the instruction again, and realized it only had to be 500 words. FML
Today, I got an F because I’m an idiot and wrote my essay on WW1 instead of WW2. I offered to resubmit a correct essay, but my mom stormed to school to demand it be changed to at least a B, because it was a good essay, even if it was on the wrong war. God, she’s impossible and embarrassing. FML
Today, my mum deleted my college research assignment on rape because the subject was too vulgar. I had worked on it for the past month and it was worth 50% of my grade. It's due tomorrow. FML
Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML
Today, my mom woke me up in the middle of the night to make me help my brother write an essay. I read what he wrote so far, gave him my suggestions, and went back to bed. She woke me up 30 mins later because he just sat and stared at his paper instead of fixing anything. Somehow that's my fault. FML
Today, I found out that my ten-page paper, which has taken me two months to construct perfectly and is worth 30% of my grade, was on the wrong book. It’s due tomorrow. FML
Today, I had to hand write a 10 page essay for one of my classes. When I turned it in I got an automatic zero. It was written in blue. Not black. FML
Today, I was busy writing my English final paper and all of a sudden my computer just chose to freeze. I thought Microsoft Word would save it, but alas, 4 pages down the dumpster. Plus my earphones stopped working and I can't afford to buy a new pair. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Your own fault for having an F in the first place.

so fake. terribly made too. paper due on a weekend? don't even have one page but it's saved on the computer? write it on your damned iPod and email it to yourself. or better yet, just pick up a pen and paper. you sir, fail at lying.

I have a project due today for one of my college MIS 111's class, so I don't think it would be fake. Second, it's not as if the OP could've worked on his paper at a library, the school's computers lab, ect. I did that for my last project when my computer fried.

Well, FML's are supposed to start off with today, so this FML could have happened in the past. I've had assignments due on the weekends via blackboard, it is common enough. It wasn't saved on the computer, they don't even have a page YET. Maybe they could have been lying, but your points don't prove it.

not everyone has an ipod or iphone that they can type a paper on.

And the people with iPhones and iPods can barely type with them. I make a mistake like every other word with my iPhone and it's only legible cuz of autocorrect. besides, your fingers would cramp up if you tried typing on this tiny screen for more than a few paragraphs.

Okay first off I'm sure your mother isn't a moron so simply go to her and tell her the situation she's put you in. If she doesn't believe you tell her to open the file up for you.

Why did you wait to the last damn minute to write the paper? Not to mention, how do you not have "one page" yet somehow you have the essay saved on the aforementioned computer? That implies that it is complete. Moron, 100x over. YDI.
