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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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

YDI for 1. not saving, and 2. being too stupid to realize that you ARE wasting electricity and criticizing your mom for caring

YDI for not saving. I mean cmon, if this paper was that important and you have been working on it for days, why didnt you save earlier? I don't know about everyone else but when I write a paper like that, I save every five minutes, it doesnt take long and it ensures that everything will be there in the event of an unexpected shut down.

Stop being an idiot. And if you can't stop doing that, then utilize autosave.

Who doesn't save their work anymore. YDI, bigtime.

Wow. The whole "Save every 15 minutes" thing hasn't sunk through yet, has it? Thank God this happened now, rather than further down the line when it might be something really important.

well thats what u get for not pressing SAVE every few minutes! u dont type a whole paper without hitting save all throughout! u never know WHATS going to happen! ive learned to KEEP PRESSING SAVE eevery couple of minutes! and before u walk away from the computer you ALWAYS hit save! duh!

Seriously, YDI for not saving it. When I'm done with stuff like that, I immediately save it.
