Work: Today, I had to give an important presentation, so I checked...

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, I finished a very important but annoying presentation that took four hours to complete. Only after writing a paragraph to explain the presentation and sending it to my boss did I realize that I saved the document as "Shit I have to do to get a promotion." 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, I practiced a presentation in the work toilet mirror. When it was time to present, I accidentally repeated my “mirror pep talk” out loud: “You are powerful. You are unstoppable.” My coworkers stared like I was summoning spirits before a spreadsheet. FML

Is this a stand up show?

Today, I had a big presentation at work and I was feeling really confident. I'd practiced it over and over and I knew it inside out. But when I got up to speak, I realized I had left my notes at home. I ended up winging it and it was a disaster. FML

Today, I was giving a presentation at work but accidentally spilled water all over my laptop. I tried to dry it off, but it wouldn't turn on. I had to give the presentation awkwardly using my phone and everyone took the piss out of me and my shoddy performance. FML

Today, I walked into my room in only a towel. I walked in front of my brother to get to my computer. He said, "My webcam is on." I replied smartly by screaming, hugging the towel tightly to me, turning, and running straight into the glass door, dropping the towel. His friends saw and laughed. 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

Just a prank, bro

Today, I had a job interview. I was feeling upbeat and confident I was gonna get the position, until I saw that my main qualification on my resume was being a "real n**ga" and "getting bitches and hoes 24/7." My brother had changed it as a prank. FML

Today, I was teasing my little brother. Later that night, I went to the bathroom to wash up. While I'm brushing my teeth, my little brother slips a photo under the door that shows him scrubbing my toothbrush against his nuts. FML

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

This brother is either a teen and extremely immature or a little kid that learned a bad word. Hope your professors will show sympathy OP

I mean personally I would be upset but in most circumstances couldn't you just hit undo?

suspended? Are you a minor and/or still in high school. If you are absolutely sure it was your brother and not a classmate or whatever than for the love of all thing's holy, talk to your parents! If your brother denies it, try to appeal to your brother in the effect a suspension could and will have on your school record and thus future regarding college and stuff. most punishments by parents pale in comparison to an unfairly marred future. I mean. really... if all this fails.. talk to your school counselor maybe?

Considering that it seems that this happened in front of both the professor and your classmates, I'd send a formal apology to them, and request to be able to make one to your classmates before the start of a class. Emphasis that it was something that occurred because of your brother taking advantage of your trust, and that you'll be taking more precautions in the future to prevent him from doing so again, or doing anything similar, and that you apologize for the event and for any offense caused by it. Does it suck to apologize for something that isn't strictly your fault? Hell yes. But at this point all you can do is damage control and take preventative measures aimed towards keeping this from happening again.
