Today, I was Skyping with a guy I'm really into. I'm not supposed to Skype at night, so when I heard my mum coming, I minimized the window. She walked in before I could mute my mic and started bitching me out for flushing my tampons down the toilet. FML

Today, I was Skyping with my girlfriend. I was incredibly tired and just wanted to go to bed, but she just kept talking and wouldn't let me go. I ended up blurting out, "Your mom's a cunt." just to start a fight and have an excuse to hang up on her. I feel like an asshole. FML
Today, I was talking on the phone to my crush so I went into the bathroom for some privacy. My drunk mother started banging on the door, asking what I was doing in there. I told her that I was on the phone, so she yelled super loud, "While you're shitting?" He immediately hung up. FML
Today, I thought I could stay on the phone and go to the bathroom without him noticing. My mom knocks on the door and without even thinking, I yelled "I'M ON THE TOILET!" He said "ew.." FML
Today, my friend was confiding all her problems to me over Skype. I pressed the mute button so I could let out a fart, forgetting I'd already muted it earlier. I broke several minutes of my own silence with a devastating wet one. Now she won't talk to me. FML
Today, I was on AIM talking to a really cute guy, whom I've had a crush on for forever, when he asked me to video chat. I got so excited and immediately pressed accept, without thinking. Not until he started screaming and cursing did I realize that I was still using my laptop on the toilet. FML
Today, I was on Skype with the guy I like. After a while of being on Facebook I forgot I was on webcam to him and started picking my nose. He ended the call. FML
Today, my mom decided to infodump on me as I came home needing to take a shit. She wouldn't stop talking and calling me back when I tried to walk off. I couldn't get a word in, and she was ignoring my gestures. She's now calling me disrespectful because I finally ran off and dropped a loud one in the toilet. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, I saw my crush standing at the bus stop. I did the "I'm talking to someone on the phone thing," trying to be cool. Halfway through the conversation my phone actually rang, I quickly answered but it was my mom on loudspeaker yelling, "Did you bring your tampons?" FML
Today, I was taking a shower. My mom thinks it's ok to just walk in on someone when they are in there so she decides to take a crap. The worst part is she thought it would be less awkward to talk to me. FML

YDI - why would you flush them down the toilet? That's stupid and bad in so many ways.

Few things make me laugh. Kids trying to go behind their parents' backs and getting embarrassed in the process is one of them.

Why is no one questioning how her mom knows she flushes her tampons?

Probably because she tried flushing the toilet and it clogged?

I stayed overnight with a friend who flushed hers. I woke up early to use the toilet and lo and behold, a tampon was still in the toilet. Not pleasant. They're not supposed to be flushed! YDI.

And to Think, if you would have been following the rules you wouldn't of been embarrassed. Imagine that.

Why would you flush your tampons down the toilet...

Because you don't want to stick them in your pocket?

#70 they are supposed to go in the bin. it's not good to flush tampons, pads, condoms etc. I've been to a sewage plant when I was at college and those items cause problems

Yep the fact that you flush tampons is a YDI. I lived with two dumbasses who used to do that as well and at one point a pipe burst because there were a whole bunch of them stuck in one spot. I'm glad it wasn't my house. One of them even tried justifying it by saying they're "biodegradable" as if that means you can flush them. Even after I explained what that word actually means she still kept blaming it on poor plumbing.

You deserve it so much for flushing down tampons. There are even drawings in some packages warning you NOT to do it, so why on earth would you ignore that?? Thank goodness I wear a cup and don't have to worry about disposing tampons.

At least she didn't flush her condoms down the toilet.

I don't understand why girls make this mistake. Tampons are supposed to absorb liquid so it'll expand in the water pipes and that's never good news.
