Today, I dropped my keys in the drain. Thankfully, my new flat mate generously offered his help to reach the keys via flower pot. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I dropped my keys in the sewer. The spare ones are inside my locked car. FML
Today, I dropped my keys in the toilet. While in the kitchen looking for something to fish them out with, I heard a door slam. My sister had to use the bathroom and didn’t see my keys in the toilet before sitting down. Lucky me, I caught her just as she was about to flush. FML
Today, I had to call a locksmith because I got locked out of my apartment. It cost a total of $350 to break in and repair the lock. Not even 3 hours later, I dropped my only key in the sewer. FML
Today, I was at the gym. At the end of my workout, I realised I lost the bundle of keys I had in my pocket that contained the key to my locker with all my stuff. I panic and start looking for them. After an hour of desperate searching, I find them thrown in the bottom of the public toilet. Thanks. FML
Today, I dropped my car keys down the elevator shaft at my dorm. I had parked my car at a parking meter, and now had no way to get change out of my car. It took six hours for someone to get my keys, and I now have a $75 parking ticket. FML
Today, I shut my finger in the car door. The door locked. Then I dropped the keys on the ground and couldn't reach them. FML
Today, I dropped my keys down the gap between the train platform and the wall. I stood there feeling awful until a station employee came over with a long grabber. He picked them up in about ten seconds. I'd spent twenty minutes panicking for nothing. FML
Today, I locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. FML
Today, I finally got my new car delivered to my home. After clicking some pics, I was walking around it, just admiring it, and tripped. Both sets of keys fell down the storm water drain. It rained heavily last night and this morning, so the water inside is still flowing. FML
Today, I lost my keys. My roommate locked me out, then yelled at me when I made her come home to let me in. I tore my room apart searching for them, and even went out to search my locker room. When I got home, I glanced at my wall only to find my keys hanging on the hook I set up specifically for them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm a bit confused too. But according to urbandictionary, "flower pot" means "When you soil/shart you underwear, then remove the underwear and put them on someones head." Maybe the person who posted the fml meant soiled underwear? Even then its a bit confusing...unless the flatmate had sh*t themselves and came out in their underwear to help.

sarcasm is a foreign language to you, isn't it?

i believe the new guy had a blooming marijuana plant in the pot and they rolled a doobie to clear their minds and think of ways to reach the keys. i dont get how that would be FML though

Retards. Its not a storm drain, then it wouldnt be an FML. The drain is a sink/bath drain, and this guy's new roomate wants to try to reach it with a flower pot (impossible), meaning his roommate is almost as dumb as half the comments on this page. Honestly. I'm 12 and get this, (and found it funny), and it's sad you dumb@$$es don't. And #18 was obviously kidding.

For all you guys who dont get it, this is what happened: The OP lost their keys down the drain. The OP's flatmate offered to help. The OP thought, 'Yes! Thank you! I'm going to get my keys back!' But that hapiness went down the drain with his keys when the flatmate offered a flower pot... Result: The OP lives with an idiot and still hasnt gotten his keys... Hope that clears it up for people :)

Basically it means that Mr. OP lives with an idiot who thinks he can retreive keys with a flower pot.
