Today, I took a shower after I finished typing an important essay I've been working on for days. My computer illiterate mum shut the computer down when I was gone, without saving a thing. When I confronted her, she yelled at me for "wasting electricity". FML

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I accidentally left my bedroom light on all day. When I got home, my mum screamed at me for wasting electricity. This is the same woman who leaves the TV on all day while she’s at work, all so our dogs have something to watch and won't be “bored”. FML
Today, my mother told me to take a quick shower. When I got out, she told me I took too long, and now I have to pay the utilities bill. My shower was two minutes long. FML
Today, my mother called me "wasteful" because I left the refrigerator door open and that "electricity money doesn’t grow on trees." This is the same person who lets my little sister have her light on all night, because she’s scared of the dark. FML
Today, I woke up early, went to the gym, then came home and showered. When I went into my room to change, my mom woke up and started pounding on my door, screaming about how lazy and useless I was for sleeping so late. When I tried to tell her otherwise, she grounded me for "talking back". FML
Today, I fell in the shower and knocked myself out. When I came to I turned off the water and called my mom. She seemed more worried about the amount of water I "wasted" than she was about me. FML
Today, I returned home to find out that my new and very expensive computer had overheated. I confronted my mom, and she told me that she had covered up the fan because she didn't like the noise. FML
Today, my mum had no legitimate reason to have her daily yell at me, so she resorted to bitching me out for putting her phone on charge after it started beeping with a low battery warning. FML
Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. FML
Today, my mom demanded that I go into the basement and fix the water heater. I told her that I had no idea how to fix it, so she threw my phone down the stairs, told me to Google it, and locked the basement door behind me. It's been two hours. FML
Today, I woke up to find my power was out. After taking a shower in the dark and being unable to make myself lunch, my power came on two minutes before I had to leave for school. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Illiterate means you can't read. Who are you calling illiterate again?

How do you work on something that important, for DAYS, and not save it??? Completely YDI.

YDI for not knowing how to click a Save button. And I agree with your mom, stop wasting electricity :)

Should've saved...or had a computer new enough to auto save.

Yeah, unless you are in a tv sitcom, this doesn't happen. The autosave would have saved the majority of your work. Plus who walks away without saving?

I hate FMLS like this about people who do a big long assingment without saving it at all then get pissed when something happens so that the computer is turned off. Is it that ******* hard to click the save button? YDI

That is exactly something my mother would do.

I doubt that.... being fully confident, of course, that you would be smart enough to hit the save button, as soon as you were done so that mom would not even be a possible problem, if the assignment is soooo important.lol

If it was so important you would've saved it before you went to take a shower. When I type an important essay, I save every few sentences. You deserved that one.

YDI for not saving early, saving often, but FYL because your mom is rude and FYL because your word processor apparently doesn't even have a rudimentary recovery function.
