Today, I lost my job because I was late. I was late because I had no alarm. I had no alarm because my roommate got mad and broke my phone when I beat her at scrabble. FML

I wouldn't think your job would fire you if this was your first time offense. Maybe you're just a screw up that's good at board games. But fyl for having a crazy roommate.

I missed out on getting laid because I beat a girl at Scrabble. I'm not sure it was my gloating that cost me my chance or the victory dance where I farted in her face. You decide. I hope you know that AA, AE, HM, MM, SH, JO, QI, XI, XU & ZA are all legal Scrabble words. Now go grind your roommate into dust!

dude, i found out that all of those "words" were usable in scrabble, and i just about freaked out. time and time again, i was told that abbreviations, under any circumstance, weren't allowed, and then they pull this shit. oh, and if you haven't tried already, try to beat the computer on hard mode in the iphone scrabble app. you just may cry. |the kid|

If the iPad Scrabble is the same as the iPhone version, I know what you mean. I beat the Normal version over 95% of the time, but when I try the Hard level, it sends me back crying to my sweet, fat momma! Too bad it doesn't have more gradations between Normal and Hard, so I could have a competitive game. I have a Mac version of Scrabble that has 8 levels. I pwned the first 5 and now the 6th, Elite, beats me 80% of the time, but a lot of the games are competitive, and it sure feels great to win. Don't forget TRANQ, QAT, FAQIR, QAID and QOPH. You've got to know all the Q words that don't have a U. I think there are a few more. Strange game, indeed.

I'd say FYL because of what happened but if you went to bed KNOWING that you didn't have an alarm then I'd have to say YDI.

Umm...why not go buy an alarm clock? FYL for having a psycho roommate, but YDI for not buying an alarm clock.
