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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If those things do what they say they do that doesn't sound like a problem to me!

Like my mom said " GET A JOB"

Who says OP doesn't have a job? People are allowed to be, and sometimes are, broke even with a job. Don't be an ass.

Uhh, are people getting more stupid by the second? No where does it indicate that OP pays for his internet access. There are other ways to get internet access, like maybe: Stealing your neighbors wi-fi, going to a coffee shop/restaurant (EX: starbucks, McDonalds, etc.) with free wi-fi, borrow a friends phone for a moment to go here, go to a frickin' library and get a card with the appropriate age (ie: child, teen, adult) and go to FML to post his FML. I mean really, THINK PEOPLE, THINK OUTSIDE OF THE ******* BOX!!!

Ok yes - so he did get free ******* wi-fi. Did get a free computer(or smart phone) as well. You dumb idiot.... The only person who can genuinely be poor enough to not afford a towel would be a homeless guy.

He could have kept it for school projects if he's in college but living in an apartment and couldn't get a dorm. But like I said, PUBLIC/COLLEGE LIBRARY COMPUTER. It's not that hard to understand. "Only homeless people can't afford towels"? Please look up people suffering during the U.S. Ressession, chances are THEY can't afford much stuff like OP here. You dumb idiotic fucktard...

The A Teen - While I agree with you, there's no need for you to become a raging douchenozzle over something like this. Whoever this person is, clearly isn't using their head but I think you need to breathe. Oxygen is good.

You could have just gone to walmart and bought a 5 dollar towel they work just the same.
