Today, I'm staying in a hotel where the lights are automatic. They turn on when something moves and turn off when everything is still. I'm a sensitive sleeper and I move in my sleep, so the light wakes me up. It's currently 2 a.m. and all together I've gotten about 20 minutes of sleep. FML

Today, I was lying in bed, staring at the ceiling with the lights off. It was 1AM and I'd just finished watching a scary movie so I was a little paranoid. I was about to fall asleep when an eerie light lit the room. I jumped, got tangled in the sheets, and hit my head against the bed frame. Where'd the light come from? Not a space ship. Not someone breaking in. It was my phone. FML

when will people learn that saying "first" only gives you shit from other people >.>

hey thank you for the useless, annoying comment 1. what did you think, people would be like "omg dude your soooo cool! first comment?!" thats badass!"

Just say the reality of it: he's first because he wants to feel special. Perhaps his mommy dropped him as a child?

I love all of your replies...

OP, you should've complained to the front desk.

sorry if I offended you guys that much

I'm pretty sure that there are settings that you can change whether the lights turn on automatically or you turn them on manually.

Looks like you're having sex with the lights on

I've heard of those in the bathrooms but not in the main room, how rude! lol

I think the better question here is: Who goes to bed before 2 am?

ur doing it wrong. clearly on the wrong setting. ydi for being stupid

Yeah, there are usually settings that let you turn the automatic setting off and only turns on if you manually touch it.

people with responsibilities and jobs....

It was a Motel 6. They said they'd leave the light on for you.

Unplug/remove battery from the light ??

Those kind of lights are stupid, this is one of those times where the idea that sounds great, until you try it.

just unscrew the light bulb?

I'm sure if you contacted some sort of management they could disable it.

Srsly just call the front desk and complain! if they can't disable it tell them to just take the bulbs out of the light.

also they should not be so sensitive that when you roll over in bed they turn on.

Or just find the movement captor and put something on it.

we did that in our hockey dressing rooms then when the lights turned off we all started fighting and stuff like that

Dumbass, it was a monster in the closet joke not a homosexual innuendo.

Unless there's a teletubbie in the closet, then it's gay AND a monster.

Your picture and comment made me laugh.

wouldn't that be awkward when the cleaning people come in, in the morning? lol

I don't think anyone would be coming in your hotel room while your sleeping!

that sucks, something better would be of you clap your hands to turn the lights on and off

it's all relative gurpreet, of the 2000 people who voted on this FML so far only a tiny 20 of them either didn't like your idea or were confused because you accidentally put 'of' instead of 'if'.

LOL Mihalka... it would start off blinking slow and work it's way up to an effin' strobe light.

Then cover the sensor with a towel or a piece of tap and sheet of paper from the front desk. Duh.

Piece of tap... Hahaha, fail.

35 you should probably lay off the weed for a bit
