Today, my mum deleted my college research assignment on rape because the subject was too vulgar. I had worked on it for the past month and it was worth 50% of my grade. It's due tomorrow. FML

Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. FML
Today, I found out that my ten-page paper, which has taken me two months to construct perfectly and is worth 30% of my grade, was on the wrong book. It’s due tomorrow. FML
Today, I was trying to show my mother how much detail I'd put into a group project that I had to present tomorrow. I then deleted the project, thinking that I was just removing it from my phone. Everyone's research and my three days of hard work went with it. FML
Today, at college, I was frantically trying to finish an essay on gay rights that was due less than an hour later. In the end I failed, because the college internet filters kept classifying every single page containing the information I needed as "sex", and blocked it all. FML
Today, I asked my professor what happened to the assignment I gave him several weeks ago. Turns out he lost it, and graded me zero as a result. Now if I want a mark, he says I'll have to hand-write it all over again, but that I "probably shouldn't bother," because it was "a bit shit, really." FML
Today, I lost a grade on an essay, because according to my teacher, I put much more detail into my analytical essay than I should have. FML
Today, I failed an assignment because the person I paid to do it plagiarized the entire thing. FML
Today, my baby threw up all over my homework, which I worked really hard on and is due tomorrow. Moral of the story is don’t have a kid when you're in high school. FML
Today, my brother stole my hard drive and wiped it. My hard drive had a 10-page school project on it. The project is due tomorrow. FML
Today, I found out that I chose a wrong class and my 30-page paper worth 10 credit points that I wrote for that class is basically worthless now, and my graduation might be postponed another semester just because of that. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That is terrible! I actually think it is great that you wrote your paper on that. It is something that affects people. Believe me. I know.

Your mom must be those strong religious people that believe rape and murder never occurs. Tell her to get out of her shell.

Don't just have your mom tell your professor what she did. Have your mom talk to your professor in person so she realizes the force of her stupidity.

Take it from me--Mom's NEVER admit to their mistakes. They always play the innocent victim card, no matter how much trouble they'd actually caused.

you're right, #18. moms never want to admit their mistakes. it's aggravating.

@18 and 68, whenever my mom does or says something that I think is wrong I talk to her about it, and if she is wrong then she apologizes or fixes it. Don't assume all moms "play the innocent victim card" just because your mothers do.

160- actually all moms are bitches and never admit their ******* mistakes. Never. They'll play the victim and blame it on how you didnt save it on a super secret back up drive.

I email major assignments like that to my gmail account since it has like unlimited storage. And I can edit my stuff using Google documents on any computer. You should start doing that too.

wow that's horrible! makes me glad school research papers were the ONLY thing I talked to my parents about when it came to school. I hope you were able to recover all or most of it...and that you were able to ask for an extension on the assignment and explain what happened

hmm. "deleted" these days usually means "send to trash folder". Unless you've got one of those rare parents who actually know computers like the back of their hand.

Some people set up their computers so that instead of going to the recycle bin, the file just gets deleted.

Yeah, I bet it's still in the recycle bin / trash folder.

Since you can't use apostrophes, it probably isn't that important.

Stop being an ignorant nit-picker.

Well, if I were to try my hand at being a nit-picker, I'd say that the word 'insolent' is probably better suited here than 'ignorant', as the latter means lacking knowledge, which Cacto is not (rather the opposite). The word 'insolent', on the other hand, means disrespectful, which seems more fitting here. How insolent of me.

While that sucks a great deal, I can't believe that you didn't save such an important file in more than one place. If I'm working on a big project, I periodically will save it to different drives as well as e-mailing it to myself. Paranoid? Sure, most likely. But at least the files don't get lost forever, and they're safe from the gelato aliens who are out to get me.

Damn I hope this was from today. Google "FreeUndelete" quick! You might be able to still get it back!
