Books and Miscellaneous: Bathtime

Bathtime

By LemmyIsWet - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I took a relaxing bath, but got the book I was reading slightly wet when getting out. I put it on top of the towel dryer after delicately shaking it. Five minutes later, I heard a splash; I went into the bathroom to find that my book had toppled into the toilet bowl. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, while reading in the bath, I accidentally switched the shower on. Not wanting my book to get soaked, I threw it out of the tub. When I got out of the tub later, I found it had landed squarely in the toilet. FML

So sexy

Today, I was relaxing in the bath with oils and candles and a new book when my husband burst in with diarrhoea, filled the toilet, polluted the air, and knocked my new book into the bathwater. Then, while washing his hands, he asked if I wanted an oil covered shag. Romantic, right? 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

Quiet night in

Today, as a stressed NHS nurse, I tried to take a relaxing bath, except I dropped my book in the water, my candle set my hair on fire, I slipped getting out and may have broken my finger. The noise woke up my two kids, so I had to start their bedtime routine over again, and I got bath salt crystals in my eye. FML

Today, I realized I'd put on my shirt on inside out, so I went to the bathroom stalls to fix it. As I was taking it off, I accidentally dropped it in the toilet. FML

Today, thanks to my habit of peeing in the shower, I accidentally peed in the bath. FML

Today, I pulled out a book and my bookmark fell out. My crush picked it up and a weird look came across his face. I then realized I had used toilet paper. Now I'm the girl who reads while taking dumps. FML

Today, I was taking a warm shower when someone in my house flushed the toilet, making the shower extremely hot. In my rush to get out so I wouldn't get burned, I slipped and knocked a tooth out. FML

Chill

Today, I decided to take a relaxing bubble bath in my jacuzzi. I poured in the bubbles, turned on the jets, and got in. I realized too late that the jets had caused the bubbles to overflow and had made a huge mess in my bathroom. Relaxing, indeed. FML

You OK in there?

Today, I went to the bathroom at a friend’s house, used the toilet paper, and realized there was none left on the roll. I grabbed a replacement pack but it was all the way on the top shelf that was too high for me. I stood on tiptoes, balancing precariously on the toilet lid when it suddenly flipped down, knocking me off, and splashing pisswater everywhere. FML

I'm going to laugh if you were reading Twilight. I laughed anyways.

By chance, was the book ROYAL FLUSH by Lynda La Plante?

I might be dumb for asking but why read while taking a bath. That seems like asking your book to accidentally get wet.

I meant to make that period after bath a question mark.

Exactly what I was thinking! I mean, I like to read a lot myself but I've never even thought of taking my books into the bathroom much less the bath...

Today I was reading FML and I read a post of a lady dropping her book in the toilet. WoW I said to myself that really is rough. Then I realized that its all a matter of perspective. FML

A man who takes baths and reads books while doing it? Clear violation of man code.

Disgusting, put the damn lid down. I don't know how anyone can just leave it up like that. I bet you don't even close it to flush do you? Do you like having poop all over your toothbrush? Do you? Really bugs me when women don't put the lid down too, you bitch if guys don't put the seat down but you leave the lid up!!!!
