Today, while showering, I broke the cap off the shampoo. Not my shampoo, my roommate's. The $60 shampoo I swore I wouldn't touch. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, while showering, I finished off the shampoo bottle. I decided to see if I could shoot it into the trash can over the shower curtain. When I heard the successful "thunk", I got so excited I slipped and cracked my head open. FML
Today, I decided to take a well-deserved shower. When I let my hair down, twenty six cents fell onto the floor. I have no idea how they got there. FML
Today, someone, and I still can't figure out who, switched my shampoo with mayonnaise. FML
Today, I tried to take a slow-motion video of myself flipping my hair like in a shampoo commercial. Instead, I hit my head against the shower door so hard that my shelf of cosmetics collapsed and landed in my toilet. FML
Today, I found out the crappy shampoo I've been borrowing from my girlfriend is actually "feminine wash." FML
Today, only after I almost knocked myself out cold with the shampoo bottle, did I finally get some out. FML
Today, upon waking up, I took a sip on what I thought was a cup of water on my nightstand. I quickly discovered it was my roommate's cup of used mouthwash which she was too lazy to throw out the night before. FML
Today, my nine year-old stepson overheard me telling my husband that I was almost out of my favorite shampoo, and since it was discontinued, I couldn't buy any more. He got in the shower and happily emptied the bottles down the drain. FML
Today, I decided to treat myself to a relaxing bubble bath. Mid-soak, I heard a loud crash and realized my cat had knocked over a shelf, sending shampoo bottles and bath salts tumbling into the water. Now I'm stuck cleaning up a soapy mess instead of enjoying my spa time. FML
Today, I fractured a bone in my foot by dropping a shampoo bottle on it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It's the cap...so what? It's not like the bottle broke and it all went down the drain...simple explanation hell replace the cap if you are still nervous about the reaction

FYL for having a crazy roommate: 60$ shampoos are for people who can afford a million $ villa and don't have any rommates who could destroy their stuff in shared shower.

How does that even make sense? Just because you're not super rich doesn't mean that you shouldn't treat yourself to luxury items once and a while. People can do whatever they want with their money.

Being someone who has dealt with shit roommates for the past 6 years, you deserve that so ******* hard -.- If it's not yours, don't touch it. Grow up and buy your own damn shampoo, not to mention whatever else you're using that your roommate bought for herself and not you.

Jumping to conclusions seems to be the sport of the day. I've broken many a shampoo/body wash cap simply by bumping into them and having them fall to the shower floor at just the right angle. OP probably just bumped it and is now afraid that the roomie will assume, as you all have, that he/she was using it.

If it was truly an accident, then you have nothing to lose by being honest. The sooner the better because no one likes discovering property damage. That just causes angry, sometimes incorrect assumptions that are difficult to negate. However, if you flat out did something you swore not to do, (which the wording of this FML seems to imply), then I guess that was just Karma at its finest. Regardless of how expensive an item may be, if you don't have permission to handle it, simply don't.

This can be both. FYL because the roommate wasn't smart enough to take the bottle out of the shower when he's done. YDI because you were touching his stuff.

Was it an accident or did you touch it on purpose?

I really don't understand why so many people on this site have such an issue with others buying expensive products. Firstly, as has been stated, the shampoo could be medicinal and OPs roommate could have some condition that requires them to use it. Secondly, even if it is just a luxury product, so what? OPs roommate has a right to spend their hard earned money on whatever they choose. There are a lot of people here who have spent hundreds if not thousands on expensive gaming systems or electronics or other non essential items that they really wanted so why would you think someone else who chooses to spend their money on something they want that's expensive deserving of having their stuff broken? It doesn't make sense

Replace the shampoo, apologize..and be more respectful of your roommates belongings. Whether it was an accident or intentional, you should try to make things right
