Today, someone put a whole packet of glitter on the blades of my ceiling fan. Too bad I only noticed when I turned it on. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I was helping a friend with a DIY project and thought it would be fun to add some glitter to the mix. We ended up using WAY too much, and now I have glitter everywhere. Not only am I covered head to toe, but I keep finding it in the weirdest places, like inside my shoes, on my phone, and even in my coffee cup. FML
Today, my ceiling fan was rocking violently so I turned it off. I stood under it trying to figure out what the problem is, it fell on my face. FML
Today, I found out how painful it is when your ceiling fan falls on you. FML
Today, I decided to bring down a very old fan from the attic. I plugged it in, and as soon as I turned it on, tiny spiders were blown all over my room. FML
Today, I woke up and looked in the mirror and noticed that my face was covered in glitter. I asked my wife about it and she said she put it on me while I was sleeping so that I would sparkle like Edward from Twilight when I'm in the sunlight. FML
Today, I woke up to the rickety old ceiling fan above my bed crashing down on top of me. I'm fine, however I am now grounded until I can buy a new ceiling fan to replace the one I "broke". FML
Today, I attempted a DIY home improvement project: installing a ceiling fan. After hours of sweat and frustration, I managed to hang it up, only to realize I'd installed it upside down. Now, instead of cooling, the fan blades are dangerously close to becoming an unconventional chandelier-slash-helicopter. At least I can say my home decor is truly "uplifting." FML
Today, I painted an area I had carefully sanded, cleaned, and taped off. I pulled a fan out of the closet to help dry it faster. I turned the fan on, and a million dust particles flew off onto the wet paint. FML
Today, someone switched my hairspray with bug spray when I didn't notice. I used it. FML
Today, I lifted up my blinds, only for them to detach from the wall, hit me on the head, knock a pile of paper over, spill a can of Pepsi, leave plaster all over the floor and a gaping hole in the wall above my window. FML

Glitter is made from aluminum and I've heard that inhaling aluminum can cause Alzheimer's. I'd give a reference, but I forgot where I heard that . . .

That's what some people say as to why you shouldn't use antiperspirant, because of the aluminum (use deodorant without aluminum salts instead). As for you, OP, you got glitterbombed!

You're so weird, OP. How did that not make your day ever so magical? Here your friend goes out of his way to brighten your day and all you do is complain. Clearly the normal reaction would have been to jump for joy while shrieking "SPAAAAAAAARKLEEEEEE!!!!" Talk about ungrateful. Sheesh.

Tin roof rusted! My pleasure. (: To this day, I can't drink out of a coke bottle without thinking about your anal picture.

Everyone thinks this sounds like a pretty nifty prank, and I like glitter, but I was thinking, did it get in your eyes? If it did than I am so sorry for you, glitter is a bitch to the eyes.
