Today, my ceiling fan was rocking violently so I turned it off. I stood under it trying to figure out what the problem is, it fell on my face. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I found out how painful it is when your ceiling fan falls on you. FML
Today, I woke up to the rickety old ceiling fan above my bed crashing down on top of me. I'm fine, however I am now grounded until I can buy a new ceiling fan to replace the one I "broke". FML
Today, I fell off the top of my bunk bed in my sleep onto a running fan. FML
Today, just for old time's sake, I decided to jump on my bed. I ended up hitting my head on the spinning fan and knocking myself unconscious. FML
Today, I was moving into my new house. While trying to turn on the light in the bedroom, I realized I couldn't reach the string on the fan. I got a chair, climbed up, reached over, and fell badly. While writhing in agony on the floor, I looked over to see a light switch on the wall. FML
Today, after having a pretty rough day, I decided a nice, hot shower would be great. Ten minutes in, the shower head apparently couldn't take the water pressure anymore, and it flew off and hit me in the face. FML
Today, a picture fell off of the wall in the middle of the night. It hit me smack bang in the middle of face. FML
Today, while trying to relax because I'm sick and I feel like crap, the shower head attachment fell and hit me on the head. FML
Today, at work, I managed to hit myself in the face with a large sheet pan. The force made me back into a shelf, which knocked a box off the top, which hit me in the head and knocked me out-cold. I now have a fat lip, a sore head, and bruises all over from the fall. FML
Today, after vacuuming, I struggled to pull the nozzle attachment out. I yanked it too hard and it flew out, hitting me in the face and causing my head to jerk back into the wall behind me. My girlfriend had to drive me to the hospital for my concussion. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

And now you have an eye patch, and a gimp leg... in about a month you will realize your gimp leg is dead and will have it amputated, then you will get a peg leg(because you can't afford a prostetic limb) and be known as calico jack the pirate

Sounds to me like you need to go find 2 more stooges and get the old act back together. Ydi for being dumb enough to stand under a loose ceiling fan.

Haha that's the reason why I don't want a single ceiling fan in the house

reguler ceiling fans only weigh 5 pounds at most, its mostly plastic and light wood, for those ppl saying the op is slow, i dont know how high up your ceilings are but mines like 8-9 feet and im 6 feet tall so if i wasnt expecting it the fan would easily fall the 2-3 feet to my face before i could realise it, and move, you could probly move somewhat but it will still hit you on the way down, on the other hand of common sense, i think anybody would assume the fan was loose if it was shaking violently and making that noise so the op should have stayed at arms length of it and held it up in case it did want to fall the op's speed is not an issue, just their common sense, but theres no reason they should have died its not that big of a deal, i could have my fan fall on my head and just brush it off

i dont need to think that long to understand things unlike you people who take 2 seconds to read part of an fml and make wild assumptions

I feel your pain OP. Ceiling fans make me so paranoid. But standing under a malfunctioning fan wasn't your brightest solution.
