Today, I'm so broke that when I got out of the shower, I had to slowly dry myself off with a ShamWow sample I received in the mail. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was drying myself with a towel after a shower when I noticed a bad smell. After running out of toilet paper last night, one of my friends decided to use my clean towel to wipe herself instead. FML
Today, I'm so broke, I resorted to breaking into my old apartment complex to do my laundry in the basement for free. FML
Today, my household ran out of toilet paper so we have to shower after every dump. My mom just confessed that she does in fact have money for shit tickets, but won't buy any because it's the only way she can get my brother to shower. FML
Today, I decided to take a well-deserved shower. When I let my hair down, twenty six cents fell onto the floor. I have no idea how they got there. FML
Today, while showering, I broke the cap off the shampoo. Not my shampoo, my roommate's. The $60 shampoo I swore I wouldn't touch. FML
Today, my mom was gifted with a toiletry basket. I grabbed the lotion and used it without asking. When I went out, it began raining hard. I got wet and noticed my skin got very sticky. Turns out the lotion was actually body wash. People were wondering why soap bubbles were coming from my skin. FML
Today, after nearly two weeks of being stressed out due to financial issues, I decided to spend my last 4 dollars on stress-relieving body wash. Apparently this particular body wash causes me to break out in hives and now I have no money for rash cream. FML
Today, I was trying to be extra productive and washed all my clothes at once, including my bedding. I hung everything to dry and only realized too late that I had no dry sheets to sleep in. I ended up sleeping on a bare mattress, wrapped in a bath towel, like some kind of sad burrito. FML
Today, my wife went and bought a set of fancy, expensive towels and threw all our old towels away. These new towels don't dry. I've been rubbing myself for ten minutes and I'm still wet. How did she buy expensive, broken towels? How do you make a towel that doesn't dry? FML
Today, I took a shower in a beach house we're renting for the week. Once I get out, I realize the house doesn't supply towels, my entire family was outside in the front yard, my phone was upstairs, and there are no blinds. I stood under a ceiling fan naked for 20 minutes trying to dry off. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Really.. You can't afford a $2 body towel at Walmart. This post angered me.

Generally towels are not only $2, even at wal-mart. How does other people's poverty anger you? And it doesn't necessarily mean they didn't have towels, they may just have had a couple of towels, and they were dirty or washing or something.

As 32 stated, towels aren't generally 2$ but even if they were, it's still possible to be so broke that you have to decide whether that money is better spent on towels or food. What I don't understand is how someone else's misfortune would anger you.

Yes really... Some people really can't afford everyday things such as towels. No need to be a jerk about it.

Maybe they had to chose between buying a towel, or paying for the water bill so they could actually take a shower, some people don't have a spare $2 after bills and such.

I'm not even going to bother backing up my comment.. It'll only end in me being trolled. I value all of your opinions and I'm sorry none of you can see that my $2 comment was an exaggeration, and yes I'm angered.. OP lives in Illinois, go to a shelter, they'll give you a whole ******* blanket for free.

... or he could go to south park, and get a free talking towel that always wants to get high, that could make shower time fun. :D
