Today, I thought I saw a snake while I was watering. I got my son to check it out and he agreed too. I was nervous so I called animal control, and they said it would cost $50 just for them to come out, I agreed. It ends up I paid $50 for them to pick up an old diamond weave farmer's hat. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my son's glasses were missing. My bathroom is not well lit, but I noticed something sticking out from under the toilet seat. I excitedly grabbed it, thinking I saw the band of the glasses. Nope, it was a snake. FML
Today, my 6 ft snake got loose. I found it. It was in my neighbor's backyard, constricting their pet rabbit. FML
Today, I had to chase off the Eastern Brown snake that's been hanging around. When it doubled back, I fell over trying to move out of its way and landed in a bush that contained 3 separate wasp nests. My body feels like it is on fire and the snake is now in my chook shed, refusing to leave. FML
Today, my mother found my escaped pet snake after she had already washed and dried it with the laundry. FML
Today, I was taking a hike through the Appalachians. I lost my balance in a steep area, and grabbed for a root along the trail above me. It turned to not be a root, but a large, angry snake. FML
Today, when going to fill up the kettle, I noticed a bad smell and pieces of something coming out of the tap. Turns out there was a dead snake in my water supply. FML
Today, my mom called me to the laundry room after she saw a dead animal in there. I took a look and agreed we should call animal control. After ten minutes of freaking out, they finally arrived to confirm that the dead animal was the hood to my winter jacket. FML
Today, I was running outside. On the last mile, I was alongside some fields. While running down the side of the road, I glanced down and saw a snake. I was so startled I jumped left in front of a car, screaming like a girl. The snake was dead. FML
Today, I was taking out the trash and I came upon a bill from a veterinary hospital. It was for $50 and it was a bill to put my dog down. My Dad said my dog was missing and I put hundreds of signs around the city. FML
Today, I spent a half hour trying to help my cat down after he got stuck in the tree on my lawn. I finally gave up and called a local tree care company to help. When I returned outside, I found my cat casually walking about by the door. The guy who showed up to help was not happy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for thinking you have to call Animal Control for a (most likely) harmless snake.

Uh why'd you call animal control just for a snake? It was probably harmless if it was a snake.

That's pretty...sad. Must be pretty hard to just get a good look at it and see what it is...

YDI for just being stupid, also for considering calling animal control. not like it was even in your house.

It was probebly just a harmless garden snake. If it was like a 30 ft python, 7 ft away from you, then yeah i'd call animal control. Geesh.

Wait...so the snake was under the hat? At first I thought the OP thought the hat WAS the snake. But that's not possible. My neighborhood used to have snakes around. One was squished under my garage door many years ago.

I think she thought the snake was the hat, because she specified "diamond weave." Didn't you notice it wasn't moving?

And YOU'RE a hypocrite, because you are dumb enough to fail to recognize the difference between "you're" and "your."

Dude, its the internet, people use slang and msn talk all the time, you might as well give him shit for saying "u" instead of "you". You're the hypocrite for not realizing that.
