Today, I found out why my room-mates and I have been ill for the past week. Apparently a rodent climbed into our water cooker and died. I have been drinking tea and eating noodles that have been tainted by a corpse all this time. FML
hannaaaahr tells us more.

Sooooo, this was my FML. Sadly, I didn't taste anything, since I didn't drink the water pure, but always mixed in cup-a-soup or something similar. Luckily me and my roommates are fine now, we're all a bit afraid of preparing food though, scared that there might be some kind of rodent in other kitchen devices. Obviously we threw away the water cooker (for those who didn't know what that is, seriously? you couldn't even think of what it 'might' be?) and since we got our new cat, Sammie, we haven't had any mice or rats crawling around! Yaaaay for Sammie!

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That was the rats revenge for you murdering their young in the garbage disposal.

Hmmm...my water kettle feels a little heavier than usual and I think I hear something rattling around inside it. Should I be worried? Naaah! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?

I think a water cooker might be one of those boilers attached to the wall over the sink, not an electric kettle.

Go to the hospital, that could be serious! :-o

I have a similar story. We used to have a roach problem and they got into the reservoir of our water cooler. I didn't realize it until about a year later, when roach remains poured out into my glass. I never got sick from it, but it's still disgusting to think about... FYL op.

We're not compairing surgery scars in competition here. Rat's more disgusting that's why your little story apparently didn't make it. Tough stuff! Get over it.

"rat's"? You know, English is a relatively easy language compared to most. We don't have that many grammar rules and such. Your sentence makes no sense. And it's more satisfying to point out because you were such a bitch. I see that you have attempted and failed to post 10 FMLs, so I wouldn't talk if I were you.

Rat is. = rat's. Can't touch me, i do pay attention.

248- So "rat's more disgusting that's why your little story apparently didn't make it." Yeah, that makes more sense than "rats are more disgusting". And you're right, I can't touch you, this is the Internet.

RATATOLLIE? I'm sorry, I pronounced that out loud and laughed my ass off. C'mon, you obviously have access to the internet. Look up the rat's name.

That joke was bad and you should feel bad!

I do, but it was only one line! I should have written that the illness wasn't caused by germs, but was a haunting of the ghost of the drowned rat. They can't all be winners.

*shakes head* I... I don't understand how something like this could be said by perdix.
