Today, I uploaded a video to YouTube. I have around 20k subscribers, so I'm not a huge deal. I used a "fail" sound effect. I just got an email from YouTube saying that I got a copyright strike. They told me that it was the 4-second sound effect. They copyrighted 4 seconds of my video. FML

It wasn't until later on after I'd poured myself a cup and taken a sip, I realized I had given them margarita mix. The kids are 4 and 2. FML

My boss doesn't email me when I don't have to work. In fact, she doesn't email me at all. We always communicate face-to-face, unless one of us is ill, in which case, we call. She even came to my apartment to tell me that I had the job. And that's also the beginning of the story of how my boss started dating my roommate's dad. The wedding is in April. If anyone has a good excuse to get me out of it, but one that won't get me fired, I'd really appreciate it.
