Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, my financial situation is so dire that I tried to steal toilet paper from work. I got caught. FML
Today, I realized that I'd run out of deodorant. On top of that, I was late to work so I had to run, making me all sweaty and smelly. To cover it up, I used the air-freshener in the toilet at work. Everyone recognized the "Lemon Tree" scent and now all of my colleagues think I'm a cheap bastard. FML
Today, I was drying myself with a towel after a shower when I noticed a bad smell. After running out of toilet paper last night, one of my friends decided to use my clean towel to wipe herself instead. FML
Today, I was standing in the gas station, pulling out my wallet to pay the $100 of gas I just filled my car with. I opened my wallet and found a note saying "borrowed money for food". FML
Today, while at work, I was trying to locate the source of the really bad BO wafting around, when I realized I'd forgotten to put on deodorant this morning. I have 5 hours of shame left to go. FML
Today, I had to use antiperspirant deodorant under my breasts. FML

Today, I'm so poor that I've been scrounging around my house all day trying to find quarters and dimes so that I can buy myself a cup of coffee tomorrow. FML
Today, I'm so broke, I resorted to breaking into my old apartment complex to do my laundry in the basement for free. FML
Today, I'm so chronically sleep-deprived that I sprayed a bathroom air freshener under my arms instead of my deodorant. FML

You could try getting a job getting shot at with paintballs for 6 hours

Please don't steal. Asking for help is a much better option. Better to borrow or even beg.

You can try to make it sound more innocent by saying "swiping," but it's still stealing. Dollar store.

Also with all these people saying you'd ruin your friendship, that's just dumb. If your friends are going to end a friendship over deodorant then they aren't very good friends haha. My friends would think it was hilarious then buy me some, not get rid of me!

You probably have a friend who does buy-one-get-one shopping, or who stockpiles things like deodorant. Be honest with that friend and ask if they can spare a deodorant, maybe toothpaste, etc. If a friend in need asked me, I'd be happy to give what I could - and would never hold it against them or think less of them as a result. Friends - real friends - aren't like that.

You can use lime or lemon. It actually works, I had to use it for a few days because my power went out. :/ and it works ok.

Your power controls the water supply and the deodorant?
