Today, I was studying for a midterm, so I put my computer on the side of my desk to make more room for my books. My roommate came in while I wasn't paying attention and tackle-hugged me from behind - I fell over, knocking my computer out the window. I live on the 8th floor. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was messing around in computer class when somebody called my name from the hall. Trying to be smooth, I tried rolling my chair backwards out into the hall. The wheels wasted no time jamming and sending me crashing face-first into the floor in front of everyone. FML
Today, as I was leaving for my chemistry exam, I stepped on one of the countless sheets of chemistry notes that littered the floor following last night's studying. I managed to slip and knock myself out in my own living room. FML
Today, I was reading on my couch when I noticed my cat trying to escape out of an open window. I leapt up to stop her, but in my panic, I tripped over a coffee table leg, slammed my face into a wall, and knocked over a guitar. My cat, meanwhile, just sauntered down, and went off to the kitchen. FML
Today, my alarm went off. I reached to swat it, missed, slipped, smacked my face on my dresser, and fell on the floor. As I picked myself up off the floor, I hit my head on the open top drawer of my other dresser. In 30 seconds of consciousness, I was attacked by two pieces of furniture. FML
Today, in the middle of the night, I got up to go get some water. When I came back, I was going to flop onto my bed, but I faceplanted into my floor. I'd forgotten that I'd rearranged my room and moved my bed. FML
Today, I fell asleep after finishing my exam. I had a dream I was falling and woke up smashing my face on the desk. Everyone laughed. FML
Today, I got a text message. My phone was sitting on the edge of the bed and set on vibrate, so it fell off. I reached down to grab my phone and fell off the bed. My macbook landed on top of me. I fractured my arm and broke my laptop to read a text from facebook. FML
Today, while my teacher was in the middle of a lecture, I accidentally made it so my laptop would display everything upside down. It took me the rest of class to get it right side up again. FML
Today, after a long day at work, I walked into my room with the lights off and jumped on my bed. At least I would've if I haven't rearranged my room and instead face-planted onto my desk. FML
Today, I was terribly late for class, so I rushed to the classroom door, thinking it was unlocked. I smacked face-first into the glass, and awkwardly fell to the floor. Once I got back up, I peeked through the glass, only to realise it wasn't even my class. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Don't know about anyone else, but I would never ever put something as valuable as a laptop next to an open window... That's just asking for an accident to happen.

a) your a dumbass. like #48 said, why the **** is your laptop beside an open window. b) why the hell does it matter that you live on the 8th floor...like a typical FML story, that is supposed to make it funnier or emphasize the misfortune of the story, but in this particular case it does neither. Being on anything other than the first floor would all end in the same result shit lips.

I don't know why everyone's assuming it's a laptop, but in their defense, there are too many wires for an entire desktop computer to fall out of a window. It'd have to unplug itself from the LAN, power outlet, speakers, keyboard, and mouse, and drag the monitor out with it.

#29: He could be taking correspondence courses. They go year round, so you can have midterms at any point in the year. I just wrote one myself.

Ouch. Reminds me of Stoke Hall at UNH, 8 floors. Anyway, it is always possible that the desks are bolted to the floor, as they once were at Stoke. In which case, the writer of this FML isn't to blame- whoever had the idea to bolt the desks to the floor is.

#52 it does matter that he/she lives in the 8th floor because it DOES make it funnier and it DOES emphasize the story!

aw. poor kid. =/ Did you laugh? Sometimes when something really bad happens you can't do anything else. And i agree with #59. They should definetely pay. In the meantime, use the library?
