Today, I thought it would be cool to hit a basketball with a baseball bat. Ended up in the ER with seven stitches. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went to the emergency room. Apparently, when your ex-girlfriend hits you in the nuts with a bat, it can do some damage. FML
Today, my first date consisted of him and me in the emergency room of the hospital after his little brother hit me in the face with a baseball bat. FML
Today, while practicing for a competition, someone decided to spin a rifle with a bayonet. I'm currently sitting in the ER with stitches in my foot. FML
Today, I was trying out for a local basketball team, so I put extra effort into showing off my baller skills. Unfortunately, I managed to hit myself in the face with the ball, knocking out one of my own teeth. FML
Today, I walked outside, slipped, busted my head, and had to get 7 stitches. Turns out my son thought it would be funny to spray the sidewalk with water last night so it would freeze. He got a laugh, and I spent over $100 on the stitches. FML
Today, I was laying on the couch with a cast on my broken ankle. My brother thought it would be funny to shoot my cast with a high-powered pellet gun. It went straight through the cast and now I need to go back to the hospital. FML
Today, I went to the orthopedist resulting from an incident last Sunday during a baseball game. After crushing a hit into right field, I slid into second base, making it thankfully, toppling over the base. The orthopedist needs a STAT MRI about a possible torn ACL and a possible torn MCL. We also lost 22-1. FML
Today, I was playing rugby. I was tackled very hard at the end of a play, and I got up to find my head bleeding profusely. Not one person offered to drive me to the ER. I had to drive myself to get six stitches in the face. FML
Today, while practicing my gymnastics routine on the uneven bars, I was so distracted by my teammates' conversation about a party later that I miscalculated my flip and smacked my head on a bar. Ten stitches and a concussion later, I was left alone in the hospital. FML
Today, I had to be go to the ER after I fell on a rake. After having stiches put in, my Mom wanted me to go to the store with her. My friend saw me at the store and thought it would be funny to rip off the band aid because she thought I was hiding a zit. She ripped out my stitches. FML

I feel like every FML that starts with "I thought it'd be funny/cool" ends in the same way, and they always deserved it.

Next, try hitting a bowling ball with a hockey stick

Nothing would happen really. Just a clunk and the bowling ball would fall to the ground.

reall? do you know nothing about basic physics. the hockey stick would break if the bowling ball was tossed at you. its hitting the wider end of a wooden stick with quite a long space between you and the blade plus bowling balls are all pretty heavy. if my some chance it didnt snap you are going to hurt your arms from the impact.

what did you think would happen? just a question.

God I hope you never have kids... There is way more to this story then told, I could go outside right now and 10 times out of 10 I won't get hurt hitting a basketball with a bat.

Depends on how hard you hit it.

All I gotta say is YDI. Anything that begins with "today I thought it would be cool to..." YDI. You put yourself in the hospital for your mistake

Did you ever think that It's called a BASEBALL bat for a reason.

I'm gonna get down voted into oblivion for this, but I think we're being a little too harsh on OP. I remember doing the same thing back in my youth and never thought anything bad would come of it. It's not like he stuck a knife in a toaster. He hit a basketball with a baseball bat thinking it'd be harmless fun. We may not know his age or how hard he hit it, but it seems like it was just OP having a little fun and it blew up (literally maybe?) in his face.

I love it when stupidity is painful
