Today, my parents decided on my punishment for failing an English test. No deodorant for a week. They think they're so hilarious, they told all their friends, and now it's all over Facebook. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my parents got a call from my English teacher. She told them that I have 14 days of detention because I've been cutting class. I've been there every day, but apparently she never noticed me. FML
Today, I faked being sick so I could weasel out of a chemistry test at school. Happy that I pulled it off, I posted my accomplishment on Facebook. I forgot that I'm friends with my parents. FML
Today, my parents told me that they've been having a contest to see who could punish me the most this week. So far, my mom is in the lead by kicking me out of the car near railroad tracks, and making me walk the 4 miles home in the freezing rain. FML
Today, my parents punished me and made me wash my mouth out with soap for cursing. I'm almost 19. I said the word "Hell". FML
Today, my mother refused to talk to me because I wouldn't let her use my deodorant stick. FML
Today, my parents yelled at me for 10 minutes without letting me get a word in edgeways for getting a 48 on my test. They took my phone, unplugged my internet, and took my car keys. They wouldn't listen no matter how many times I told them, "It was out of 50". It actually was. FML
Today, during science, my friend thought it would be funny to pour corrosive acids into the reaction test I was making. I had to explain to my parents why I have no eyebrows, but the worst part is that I only got a D. FML
Today, I was supervising a written exam, which took place in a really warm room. Half of the two hundred participants has probably never heard of deodorants. The other half used probably the whole can this morning. I had to stay in this inferno of stench for five hours. FML
Today, my friends confronted me and told me that they no longer want to visit my house because my dog smells really disgusting. I didn't have the heart to tell them that the smell is actually my parents, who have been trying to "save water" by only showering once a fortnight. FML
Today, I got suspended from school for smoking in the stairs. I'm grounded for a month without my phone, TV or any type of social connection. All of this would seem like a fair enough punishment if I actually smoked, but instead I just smell like my parent's second-hand smoke. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You can just take a bunch of showers or buy your own deoderant. Problem diverted.

Wow, that is quite a creative punishment but I feel for you OP, it isn't like you did anything bad. People can fail tests for all kinds of reasons, unless you didn't bother at all I don't see why you should be punished. Anyway, I can help you out, try using baking soda, or lemon juice. apple cider vinegar, rubbing alcohol, virtually anything that will kill bacteria

You can't go buy a stick of deodorant yourself?

I'm guessing if the parents still have the power to punish her, she's not old enough to have her own means of transportation and income. *Shit, just realized like 5 other people said the same thing. This applies to all of you!!

Don't you have some cheap perfume? Perfume was the first kind of deodorant.

Perfume mixed with sweat and body odor does not smell good. It smells like a sweaty "exotic" dancer. Perfume has nothing in it to kill bacteria, so it can't mask the smell it just makes your sweat smell fruitier.

Visit your school nurse in the morning and explain what your parents did. They will almost surely have some or the gym teacher will. So sorry your parents are abusive asses who enjoy humiliating you

Do your parents mean no deodorant for you or for them? Everyone seems to assume it's no deodorant for the OP, when it could be cruel olfactory torture for the parents to go without. Think of the old person smell that would arise tinged by hints of sex and yard work. It borders on abuse.
