viola98 tells us more.
Clarification: I broke the lamp by complete accident. I was vaccuming my living room and I caught the edge of the vaccuum on the end of the coffee table, and the light went crashing to the ground. I did tell my mom, and she was initially upset, but the lamp itself didn't have any sentimental value, making the situation a bit better. It was a vintage lamp she got at an auction in France. Thank you for your concerns and comments, haha, I've learned my lesson.

I spot a troll... feed her the glass from the broken lamp.
Mmmkay, go back to your cave little troll.
Straitjacket, anyone? And you aren't fooling anyone. You're gonna sit there and troll because this is the only thing that can make you feel good about yourself. So have fun going crazy.
Your mom deserves it for keeping something like that
backformorebitch- hypocritical idiots like you annoy me. now everyone, just ignore him. on every FML.
good idea! and if you would be so kind to give this person a negative vote, so nobody can see his/her comment... and, to bad about your lamp, i really am. FYL indeed
OK STOP...... GRAMMAR TIME!
Okay guys, seriously, shut up.
YDI for being a SPAZ.
I'm eating popcorn while reading this comment fight.
ouch! that sucks.
Awww that sucks!!! But it was an accident.. so im sure she'll undersand.. I HOPE FOR YOU
Well, we don't know it was an accident. In fact if it was, that'd add more to the FML factor so it would've been mentioned. Really, we don't know if she accidentally broke it, or broke it while being stupid.
Why would she break it on purpose and then be really upset about not being able to replace it? I kind of doubt this was a "moment of passion" thing (like being angry at her mom for something) and that she then immediately felt bad for it. The most likely situation is that she accidentally broke it. And by the way, guys, if you're calling the OP clumsy, you're being ridiculous. EVERYONE has broken SOMETHING in his or her lifetime.
There's a difference between something being a total accident and being someone's fault even if it is an accident. If she bumped the table it was on while walking by or something, that was an accident. It's different if she was, for instance, having a huge party while her mom was away and it got broken there. THAT would be a YDI. Judging by the fact that the OP doesn't say what actually happened, she was probably doing something stupid and knows it's her fault.
If your mom can afford that for a lamp, she could afford to have it insured.
Good point, although if she could simply afford to keep it around(not sell for $), it probably wouldn't be too much to insure. IMHO, putting out something that valuable is accepting a certain level of risk.
Or maybe it was worth a lot more to her than she could sell it for.
Yeah, if her late grandmother gave it to her or something, it would have sentimental value. Lamps like these can be repared, as long as they're not shattered like safety glass. The OP still has hope.
But sir, you havent paid your electricity bill? THEN WE SHALL FIGHT IN THE DARK!
when you have lightsabers, you don't need lamps, just use the light that comes from the light saber. my advice? Kill a jedi, possibly a sworn enemy, or one who you can tell will go to the dark side and kill other jedis than just sell his lightsaber, I'm sure someone would buy a real life lightsaber over 9000 dollars... I would, that would be awesome, you could deflect bullets. and you could fight in the dark where your lamp used to be
LOL, dude... you are epic. That is all.
you seriously made my entire day. you're awesome.
How did you break it? If you were being wild in the house or having a party--you deserved it. If it was clearly an accident, like bumping into it while cleaning, then indeed, FYL.
