Today, I woke up after a long night of trying to catch a moth. I'd knocked down furniture and screamed up the house to do so, but I finally got it. What did I see first thing this morning? Another moth. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got up and started getting ready for work. As I entered the bathroom, I noticed a moth in the shower. Feeling generous, I caught the moth in a cup and took it to the front porch. I released the moth and watched it fly away… into a giant spider and its web. FML
Today, a moth was flying around my house. Annoyed, I picked up a shoe to crush it with. The moth landed on a light fixture on the ceiling, so I made my move. Dead, the moth slipped gracefully through air and onto my head. So did the light fixture. FML
Today, I saw a moth trapped in a spider web. Feeling gracious, I gently freed it, and then took it to the window to let it out. When I opened the window to set him free, my $300 air conditioner fell two stories and smashed on the sidewalk. The moth flew away. FML
Today, after a long day at work, I was ready to wind down for the night. I sat on my bed and turned towards a fluttering on my left. I saw the biggest daddy-longlegs inches from my face, jumped in the other direction, forgetting there was a wall, and hit my head on it. I'm now officially wide awake. FML
Today, there's a moth in my house, who either does nothing, or flies around like it just ate enough sugar for one lifetime. Every time I see it, I think it's a wasp and, being deathly afraid of them, I go into a full-blown panic attack until the sight of it bumping into light bulbs brings me back to reality. FML
Today, I woke up to a huge, disgusting bug next to my bed. As I tried to squish it, it suddenly flew off at high speed. Now I'm lying in bed, awake and terrified because I can hear it buzzing around but can't see it anywhere. FML
Today, I put up one of those hanging fly catchers in my room due to the unsettling amount of flies in the house. I remarked how stupid flies were to land on them. Within an hour, I got up and walked straight into it. FML
Today, my family decided it would be hilarious to catch the biggest moths they could and let them loose in my room. I'm terrified of moths and they thought it would be "funny as hell" to watch me freak out. FML
Today, I finally slapped the shit out of the mosquito that had been buzzing around my room all night. I celebrated, turned off the light, and immediately began hearing another one. FML
Today, I've been awake since 3 a.m. Why? A bat flew into the house and made its way to my bedroom. We haven't been able to find it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Moths are ANGRY and vicious! Some of them have bloody fangs dripping with venom. You were right to spend all night trying to destroy it. It was life or death for you.

Moths are just bitter because they are ugly butterflies.

They're so not ugly! ;^; they're big fluffly butterflies!

Well, it's not. Otherwise it wouldn't have so many thumbs down. It's just another person trying to hard to get likes.

I make a stupid pun that got thumbed down for a little bit but then some people realized it was pretty punny. Someone was going to do it, so I made it my job to do it first, knowing I'd either get a lot of thumbs up or a lot of thumbs down. It was both. HOW BOUT DAT SHIIIT

Why does that moth bother you so much?

All that for a moth? A wasp or mosquito I could understand - I wouldn't be able to sleep if I thought I might get stung - but what the hell is a moth gonna do? I know they're supposed to eat your clothes but I've never seen that actually happen...and moths are pretty cute. Like fluffy butterflies. I guess if you have a phobia that's somewhat understandable but if you're just one of those people who thinks moths are 'icky' but has no problem with butterflies then I think that's kinda silly...

Something sort of similar happened to me. We got tons of flying ants by a bag of chips and we sprayed them all with bug poison but the next day there were tons more in a different area. I tell ya, bugs must reproduce really fast!
