Today, while I was in the shower, my older brother thought it would be funny to change the language on my phone to Serbo-Croatian. I don't know how and can't change it back. FML

Today, my friend thought it would be funny to change the language setting on my phone to Mandarin. Unfortunately, neither of us knows Mandarin, and we can't change it back to English. FML

Today, I found my brother tampering with my laptop. He had changed the entire settings, in ways I don't even know how to fix. I finally had to get my mom to threaten him to change it back to its original setting. I'm 15. He's six and can barely get dressed by himself. FML

Today, I had to give an important presentation, so I checked it over one last time before taking a shower and heading out. I found out too late that my brother used that window of opportunity to replace the entire document with the N-word repeating over and over again. FML

Today, while I thought my brother was playing with my new phone, he was actually texting a bunch of my friends that I have chlamydia. He deleted his texts so I wouldn't see them, and I spent a half-hour trying to figure out why I kept getting texts of shock and sympathy. We're both in our 20's. FML

Panic! In the Bathroom

By MAWZ - 19/07/2011 06:33 - United States

Today, while I was showering, my brother thought it would be funny to burst through the door pretending he was a burglar. Panicked, I went to grab the soap bar as a weapon, slipped, fell, and hit my head on the faucet. FML

Today, in an idle moment I tried to change the language on a Word document. Instead, I changed my default Office language, and now all my Office apps - plus all my work Excel files - are now in Ukrainian. It's really hard to fix when you can't read the instructions. FML

Today, I was using the bathroom and checking Facebook on my phone. As I'm checking my newsfeed, I noticed a new photo upload by my brother. I guess I forgot to properly shut the door to the bathroom, because it's me on the toilet. FML

Today, my brother sent me an image by Skype, saying I really had to see it. I figured it was some kind of stupid joke, but I tried to look anyway. It wouldn't open. Turns out he thought he could just rename the ".exe" on a virus to ".jpg" and it would still run. My brother's a cretin. FML

You must put it on the top rack of the dishwasher and run the cycle with the heated drying. Then it'll work great.

google how to change languages on your phone, and there's usually a number sequence to follow (unless it's a smart phone) but even still the interface should look the same, just the words are different. videos help

First thing you do, learn how to access the prankable settings on your phone. I once set my phone to Chinese in order to use the Lunar Calendar (it was a while ago, I was young and stupid) and easily changed it back to English (UK).

Serbo-Croatian stopped existing 20 years ago. Now there's Serbian and Croatian. Plus it's not that difficult if it's in Latin script then it's probably Croatian, and if it's cyrillic, it's def Serbian.

Serbian and Croatian are practically the same language, with only minor differences. So, Google Translate can totally help you. "Settings" is Podešavanja, or in Cyrillic writing Подешавања. "Language" is Jezik, so it's probably somewhere under Podešavanje jezika (Подешавање језика) or Jezička podešavanja (Језичка подешавања), еtc. I'm guessing you know at least a little about your phone, so I'm sure it's not that difficult to change it back. I mean, just Google changing your phone language and that's it.
