Today, I realized that choosing to live in the honors dorms was a terrible mistake. Quiet hours start at 6 PM and the only exception is if you are a member of the university marching band, which means you can practice your instrument at anytime in the lounge... located next to my room. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I had to study for an important test but I could barely focus because my roommate had his music blasting at full volume. Since we get along well, I decided to put up with it. I just found out he forgot to turn it off and left over 6 hours ago. FML
Today, to make my dorm neighbours think I'm popular, I blasted music and screamed at the top of my lungs so it sounded like I was having a party. My residence manager slapped me with a noise violation, and demanded to come in to make sure we weren't drinking. I had to explain why I was by myself. FML
Today, the guy on the floor above me decided it was time for a tuba jam session. Apparently optimal tuba time is 2am. FML
Today, I had a nasty headache so I tried to take a nap. Unfortunately, my college had a homecoming parade a block away from where I live. I never knew our marching band sounded that awful. FML
Today, I forgot my headphones at home. When I got to work I found out that today was also the day the band next door had decided to practice their only song for 8 hours. FML
Today, after a long night of studying, my roommate and her friends decided it would be fun to throw a mini party in my room at 7am. FML
Today, I went to my first class of the semester. After an hour of intense note writing, I realized I was in the wrong class. FML
Today, the clock in the study lounge was off, so I was half-an-hour late to class. I was too embarrassed to walk in late, so I sat for the next half-hour with my ear against the door trying to hear the lecture. People stopped to ask if there was something wrong with me. Yeah, probably. FML
Today, I walked into my dorm to find my roommate and his friends using my bass clarinet to smoke weed. FML
Today, my new roommate woke me up at noon to bitch about my "selfish sleeping habits" and how they ruin her ability to invite anyone over. I work the graveyard shift at the hospital. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Ask for a transfer... ...Otherwise, earplugs might work. Quiet hours, though? Tell your preschool teacher that you don't want naptime. Hold your breathe and stomp your feet until she lets you make some NOYZE, biznatch.

Tasers don't make much noise... can you use them after 6pm? Don't be a victim.

Hey, you made the right choice. You want to be on the right side when we nerds take our sweet revenge. It will be much more brutal than in the movie. We have lightsabers.

go into the lounge and strike up a conversation, if you can't persuade them to not play there, at the very least you keep them from playing while you and they talk. Who knows, maybe you'll make a friend.

Why are you complaining? Free music! Think of all the money you'll save on iTunes, or the secret visits from RIAA ninjas who harvest your kidney for all the music you've pirated.

I can't believe this really, I don't know any music majors who don't go practise in the band hall or music building.... except the classical guitar majors and they sit outside most of the time.

Not everyone in the marching band is a music major...

Still, they don't practice in the dorms...

YDI for going to UMD. I assume you're living in Denton Hall. That's one of the shittiest dorms on campus.

Haha, ten bucks says he does and he's in Richmond. Just call the RA on duty next time and one of them will tell your bandie to STFU.

Didn't you check out the rules of the honors dorm before you moved in?

At my school, the people on the honors floor are the most fun people i have ever met...i have woken up there many times and not remembered how i got there..

I'm pretty sure I go to the school you're talking about since it says Maryland and that 6pm quiet hours must be new cause when I lived in the honors dorm we just got drunk every night.
