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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm going to say the same thing as everyone else. You idiot!! Just think about this very carefully. You finish doing this huge thing right and you decide to just leave it there, not saved, not backed up, nothing! Your "computer- illiterate" mother is wandering around, so it should have been saved in the first place. Your a freaking moron for not saving it, dumbašš

wow, honestly, if you were working on a paper for DAYS without shutting down your computer (and before doing so saving your work) then your mom is right, you're wasting energy YDI you should've saved it....

You do realize the power could have blinked out for just a second, the computer could have randomly shut down (in particular if you are on vista), the computer could have frozen up because of background applications, etc and you still would have lost your work. YDI because no one who is intelligent enough to be in school would type up an essay without periodically saving it while they are typing it If it was in word, open word, and select document recovery.

I always save my work a few times every minute, idiot. Why in the world would you be working on it for days without saving??

YDI. I'm sorry but you're just an idiot for not saving. I save my work every few paragraphs & definitely if I'm leaving my laptop. You never know can happen.
