Today, my sister found out she contracted ringworm and scabies from her best friend's rescued kittens. The entire family now has to be treated to prevent it from spreading. There are 7 people in our house and none of us have health insurance. FML

Today, our new cat, which my mum was hesitant about letting us keep because she believes they're diseased, gave us all ringworm. FML
Today, I found out that people can get ringworm from cats. I found out because I have ringworm. I don't have a cat. Then I remembered I helped a friend move about two weeks ago, and spent the night sharing a bed with her cat. That's the last time I ever help her move. FML
Hypochondriacs of the world unite!
Today, I was woken up at 2 in the morning by my wife frantically saying something about her having scabies, and that I had to take her to the ER. It turned out to be eczema. FML
Today, even though I'm the most neat freak germophobe there is, I was diagnosed with scabies. FML
Today, my sister is nursing an injured cat back to health in our home because she accidentally hit it with her car. Now I can't decide which is contributing more to my insomnia: the incessant meowing, or the constant itching because our house is infested with fleas. FML
Keep them to yourself, buddy
Today, my sister had a friend for a sleepover. They filmed a video in which the friend was lying in my bed, singing. An hour after the girl went home, her parents called. She has lice, and had brought them to our house unknowingly. I can see each and every individual larva on my pillow. FML
Today, I decided to go thrifting to save some money. Ironically, I ended up having to pay for an emergency trip to the hospital because somebody was too lazy to wash the cat hair off their clothes. I'm severely allergic to cats. FML
Parting gift
Today, a friend who visited me a week ago with "allergy rashes" told me that it's actually scabies, and she hopes I didn't catch it from her. It takes 2-6 weeks for the symptoms to show and I can't use the medication for it anyway because I'm pregnant. FML
Rats!
Today, I'm feeling extremely sick and itchy. I'd bought rats as pets to help with my anxiety, and they gave me ringworm. I now have ringworm in about nine places on my body, including my face. I don’t know which one is worse, being dizzy from the medication or the itching. I’m feeling more anxious than ever. FML
Today, my four roommates and I contracted lice. While all our heads were slathered in mayonnaise and saran wrap, our building's fire alarm went off. FML

yeah, canada ha free healthcare, but you have to wait two to three times as long to get treated. you might either be healed or dead by the time you get ur prescription filled
urdirtyolduncle 15
I usually die before my prescriptions are filled.
scrapmetal58 9
Uh, you clearly have no idea about that which you talk. Wait times every time I've gone to the ER, or hospital, or doctor have been fine.

I dunno how much treating it costs, but my brother got the same stuff from wrestling. All you have to do is apply this topical stuff you get like once or twice and you're done.

Just to clear up the matter... I live in Canada and I've never had to wait for more than a few hours in the emergency room for non-urgent care, and while some may have to wait months for specialist appointments (which obviously OP would not need for her treatment, any GP could get on that), people with urgent healthcare issues do not. People here aren't dying because they can't see a doctor in time, and, even better, no one stays sick because they can't afford to get better. Canada FTW.

Iamnotmyself 17
-74 Look you use grammar as a tool to make yourself look spectacular, stunning, intelligent. A high vocabulary is a sign of intelligence statistically, good grammar is a sign of OCD. or CDO the letters of the alphabet in order! Either way everytime you do that your getting closer and closer to being awesome...less.
Iamnotmyself 17
-87 I hope they do, I feel accomplished as If I mean something Like other people!

I seriously think you're high. have you been reading your comments? they make NO sense!
tsume24 3
...or I just know how to speak/type in proper English. ever think of that one? besides, I was correcting you because it's funny how much it bothers you. :3 *waits for another nonsensical reply*

aw that's mean 93, he could have some kind of mental disease and you'd be abusing the poor guy.
Iamnotmyself 17
-92 Dude, I'm sick and tired of more than half of the people on this website commenting I don't feel like I have many standards, sure all of my comments will get moderated, but I just wish that this place wasn't runs by hypocritical grammar Nazi's *cough* and everyone could enjoy the humor on this website, I lol everytime I see first, everyone atomatically flames him! he's obviously a noobie why not teach him better. And everyone follows the FML commentating Gods like a religion, so I give up on trying to make everyone happier and am now being self conscious.
tsume24 3
or he's just high...
BaconDave 12
I like your comments. **** all of the people who think you're high.
Iamnotmyself 17
-93 still up for that phone number? besides the more ego I give you the more of a douchebag you'll become so if I do this I might finally make you people look luke idiots! and I can has use da proper engrish, as well as thare freench
Garyy_fml 11
I think having good grammar is a sign of NOT being a dumbass. You should consider, iamnotmyself.
Iamnotmyself 17
-99 hehehe thanks I'm just gona troll people with a good lol that are idiots and leave the smart people to die of attention loss, just like 95% of these people
tsume24 3
101, that's a TERRIBLE way to ask a girl for her number, hahahaha. oh and I never called you a name, but thanks! I think you should have your medication switched...ASAP.
Iamnotmyself 17
102, I have proper grammar, I choose my time and place to use it. It is very tedious and difficult doing it often, as I have learned sometimes proper grammar is not the best way to approach things.
Iamnotmyself 17
-105 I don't like my homosexual drugs, they never help me not like guys, besides schizophrenic drugs are de bomb
tsume24 3
if you had more than 2/3 of a working brain, you'd find that proper grammar comes naturally to those who know how to use it. if it's difficult or tedious, you've got a serious problem.
Iamnotmyself 17
-109 Fine, then I will use a different word, "slow." Does that satisfy you? Try asking my friend with down syndrome that question. I'm sure he'll agree.
monzach 5
Iamnotmyself- allow me to rebut all of your arguments if you're sick of "half the people on this website commenting" then don't go to the comments. if your comments always get moderated, DON'T COMMENT. How are grammar nazis hypocritical if they correct someone then always write perfectly? That doesn't sound hypocritical to me. People "flame" other people who write "first" because it's a stupid, worthless, and pointless comment. it brings no worthwhile value as a Comment and they usually do it to troll. and I wasn't aware there were commentating Gods...I think I have found my new religion. and so far all of your comments have been stupid and irritating so you aren't very good at making people happy. And you should be self-conscious, you've made yourself an idiot for the entire Internet to see.
tsume24 3
very well-put, 113!
ThreeSheetsGone 12
Wow, that ENTIRE thread gave me a headache. I'm gonna go shoot a peacock to feel better.
Iamnotmyself 17
Well, this actually was one of my first times:)
Iamnotmyself 17
she said capitalization didn't matter in one of her posts, not to long ago.
Iamnotmyself 17
113 by very many people, you mean you and the grammar nazi.. lol I am just not used to /b/
Iamnotmyself 17
Also 113, I've been here for awhile, a year without a profile, 6 months observing comments, and finally making a profile, I've experimented, I've rated comments (first) down and they've gone all the way down to buried, ave rated them up and see them go allthe way up, and I've used the buttons differently, the thumbs already in play determine the outcome, and everyone backs up famous fmlers even in the rare case he's wrong, on everything.
ThreeSheetsGone 12
120- After reading, quite painstakingly, I might add, a vast quantity of your seemingly idiotic and pointless comments, I've finally found one that I can agree with. Congrats! You get a Snoopy balloon and a size 7.5 men's ring I found in the Wal-Mart parking lot earlier today.
Iamnotmyself 17
-123 to be honest i didnt make sense on most of my comments on purpose.

Eh. Who cares? We're all here to laugh at the misfortunes of others anyway.
