Today, I got a computer. When I opened it, I found out that my dad had made himself the administrator. He made it so everything shut off after 11 o'clock, and made it so I couldn't download anything without his password. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my dad was sat on my laptop in the living room trying to learn how to do some rewiring around the house when he, and I quote, ”clicked on the thing.” My laptop is now riddled with so many viruses it’s basically a house brick. FML
Today, my mom borrowed my computer without my permission and downloaded a virus. I came home to a blue screen of death. She refuses to admit fault and pay for a new computer. FML
Today, I found my brother tampering with my laptop. He had changed the entire settings, in ways I don't even know how to fix. I finally had to get my mom to threaten him to change it back to its original setting. I'm 15. He's six and can barely get dressed by himself. FML
Today, I got a blue screen of death on my brand new computer. Why? My parents installed an "anti-virus" before I got home. FML
Today, I borrowed my dad's laptop to type an essay. While I was saving it, I noticed some curious looking files and I opened them. They were rejection letters from all the colleges I had applied to. My dad had been forging them so he wouldn't have to pay for my tuition bills. FML
Today, my dad learned how to use the parental controls. I now have an 11 o'clock curfew. I am 17. FML
Today, our work computers are down so I've been trying to fix it via my home computer for 3 days. My 12-year-old son took one look at the screen, changed 2 settings on a drop down menu, and the problem was fixed. My 12-year-old is better at my job than I am. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, my mom thought it would be a good idea to see what websites I go on from my computer while I wasn't home. She clicked the link that gave my computer a virus that I just got rid of a few days ago. FML
Today, I let my mother use my computer for school work. Later that day my mom asks me what's wrong with the computer. I look at it, only seeing a "Welcome to Windows XP" screen. She said that she saw a blue screen and pressed L and C when it asked her to. My mom managed to clear my hard drive. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Just download tons of horse **** on his computer. When he asks why, tell him that for some reason, you couldn't download anything on yours so you used his instead. :D

My dad did that too... It turned off at 11pm and I couldn't download any of my music at all, but I figured out his password so it was all good xD

Wow, your dad's a prick. Even if you were a child that would still be a ridiculous measure to take.

Wow, all I can say is that sucks. I know I am always on my computer after 11 doing homework and playing games.. Unless you are still in High School, this is completely unacceptable.

When you're old enough to buy your own computer then you can use it whenever you want. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Be happy you got a computer at all.

ydi if you don't fix it, otherwise fyl for having to go through the extra trouble. If it's new it may be Vista (additional fyl) and I don't know if the safe mode trick works in Vista. Format should still work though, just do that.

Boot windows from a flash drive. Figure the password. Google how to hack passwords. Its not hard at all!

That is soooo stupid why the heck are parent so overly protective like that, they should know that you are not that young and don't need to be sheltered or something stupid like getting off the computer at 11 o'clock! Plus isan't it YOUR computer!

Reinstall the system and make yourself an administrator with all those parental controls used on your dads account. If u cant do that YDI :P

That sucks that your parents don't think you're responsible enough to handle going online after 11 pm. That's just dumb. If you've graduated, you're pretty much old enough. Some parents just way overdo things. I'm just glad my parents aren't that computer-savvy. FYL, and I hope you find a way around this.
