Today, I was vacuuming our house because I wanted to help my parents. I wore a headset while listening to REALLY loud music. The vacuuming job took me two hours and when I took of my headset I noticed that I hadn't started the vacuum cleaner. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I tried out my new noise-canceling headphones while vacuuming my house. They worked so well that I didn't hear the vacuum stop when the plug fell out of the outlet. I accidentally had the vacuum off the entire time. FML
Today, I wore noise-canceling headphones while cleaning my apartment. Apparently I'd been singing at the top of my lungs for nearly an hour, because my neighbor knocked on my door just to ask if everything was OK. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my roommate vacuuming at 7 a.m. I was annoyed because I had stayed up late, but then I realized she was vacuuming in the kitchen… at 7 a.m. because the broom "wasn't powerful enough." I gave her the benefit of the doubt until she started vacuuming my bedroom floor while I was still in bed. FML
Today, I finally finished vacuuming my downstairs. Instead of finding the wall outlet and unplugging the vacuum, I triumphantly tugged the cord from across the room to release the plug from the wall. It flew at me at top speed and hit me in the face. FML
Today, I bought a new vacuum cleaner after having to go several months without one. Immediately, I wanted to try it out. I must have underestimated how powerful it was, as it sucked up my socks and then broke. FML
Today, I realized just how lonely I am when I started singing and harmonizing with the vacuum cleaner. FML
Today, I came into work early to clean equipment, with my headphones on, singing to myself. I lost track of time, and wound up with the entire office watching me belt tunes out. FML
Today, with words of encouragement from my mom, I vacuumed my room. After finishing and admiring my job well done, I went to put the vacuum away. It caught on the plug for my electric razor which was dangling below the dresser and yanked that and everything else that was on top of it off. FML
Today, my daughter decided to wake me up by putting the vacuum in my hair and turning it on. FML
Today, my mother woke me up by loudly vacuuming the house. I had to work the next morning, so I asked her what she was thinking. She told me that if I was really tired and needed sleep, I wouldn't have woken up. It was 3 AM. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

OP = Idiot. How could you not feel that it was off? I mean the vibration and everything, the fact it doesn't pick up stuff off the floor? How vacant WERE you? Jeeze. I call fake on this one, it's just too ridiculous. Either that or you're just completely uninformed about how to vacuum a house.

What kind of mansion do you live in that it takes 2 hours to vacuum? And if it took two hours, you would have had to plug and unplug the vacuum and switch outlets. How would you forget to turn it on every single time you switched outlets?

I was gonna say the exact same thing. You can tell when the vacuum is on. It vibrates and kind of suctions to the floor. Also it actually picks up dirt instead of pushing it around... two hours and you didn't notice? Not even in between songs or during the slow parts? Liar.

I agree with you. And I also love how they decided to emphasize "really" in "REALLY loud music" as if that is going to make us believe them.

Maybe OP was too into the music to realize it wasn't on

Exactly what I was thinking. Theoretically, the dirt and such would've have gone anywhere.
