Today, my husband decided to drain his motorcycle oil into an empty bottle of laundry detergent. Also today, I decided to lift a stain out of my white comforter with some detergent I found in the garage. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my husband decided to be helpful and do all the laundry, including pre-treating all the stains. He felt that Clorox Clean-Up with Bleach would be the most effective. FML
Today, my husband finally decided to help with the laundry. He washed a pen and it exploded in the dryer. FML
Today, it was laundry day. After my fifth and final load, I noticed I never added any laundry detergent. FML
Today, as I was about to go to bed, the lid came off a brand new bottle of laundry detergent and it toppled down my carpeted basement steps. 3 hours, 2 dozen microfiber cloths, and a bucket of water later and my steps are still full of suds. I went to bed at 3 am and my 10 week old was up at 4 am. FML
Today, I came home to find my fiancé trying to do laundry. His version was "rubbing the smelly spots with baby powder". Looks like I'll be the only one doing laundry for the rest of our lives. FML
Today, I went to gather the laundry out of the dryer. My daughter had seen my wife put bleach in the washer, so she decided that honey in the dryer would make the clothes smell sweet. She wasn't wrong, but now I have a giant ball of sticky socks and underwear. FML
Today, I spilt purple washing detergent all over my white carpet. Desperate to get it up I grabbed a blue towel and started mopping it up. The detergent hasn't stained the carpet at all, the blue dye from the towel has. FML
Today, my wife complained that the coffee grounds I swept into the sink grossed her out. Yesterday, I removed several panty-liners from her soiled underwear before doing the laundry. FML
Today, I had to do my laundry. Being too lazy to separate them into different colors, or even check the pockets of my jeans, I threw everything I own into one load. Turns out I had left a tin of lip balm in one of my pockets. My whole wardrobe is now covered in spots that won't come out. FML
Today, I did laundry for the first time in weeks. Feeling productive, I dumped everything in, including what I thought was my pile of towels. Turns out, I washed (and shrunk) my roommate’s $200 wool sweater. She found out when I proudly showed her how “clean” everything looked. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

YDI. At least now when your husband ***** other women (You're obviously an ungrateful bitch, you should be doing all the work like a proper female), you will see the sex stains and can talk to him about it. And he'll bitch slap your damn ass out onto the street, you stupid ****.

Yeah, FYL, not only for having such a dumbass of a husband, but also for having such idiotic FML'ers who're blaming YOU for the whole thing. Go bonk your husband on the head with the detergent bottle.

Some peoples' washer and dryer are in the garage, having detergent there isn't all that uncommon. However, YDI. The differences are obvious.

some people stock things in their garages, that's probably where they put things when they aren't using them. Also, FYL and I hope you're husband got an earful or a foot up his arse.

Even if you dont have a washer in the garage (like me) You still store surplus detergent and other stuff in the garage when you dont use it... Also.. How can you not tell the difference between detergent and oil... Detergent smells... nice...and doesnt have an oil color...

Maybe she just dumped some of it in straight out of the bottle and didn't pour it in the cap first.

As for the people saying "well I have my washer in my garage" I'm also sure you are like most that put their detergent ON TOP of said washer machine or have a general area for said things. I'm pretty sure the husband didn't put the motor oil by the bulk foods or on the shelf with the detergent since most of the time we put like shit in a collective pile. So either OP wasn't paying attention (YDI) or your husband wasn't (FYL).

I'm a little confused here- if it was a top loading washer, you'd pour the detergent in before stuffing the comforter in there. If it was a front loader with a soap tray, you could have just pulled the comforter out before it started the wash. You'd have to be pretty moronic to just not notice and go on washing it.

Some people would pour the detergent in after loading it - I know that's how my family does it.
Bleep_fml 0
Even if you put the detergent in after loading the maching, you can still open the door and unload it as soon as you notice that you poured something else than detergent. And how can you not notice the difference? Even if the detergent bottle wasn't see-through, you would've seen the difference when the stuff came out of the bottle, and smelled the used oil stench as soon as you opened the bottle.

So in order to find something to clean your clothes you look in the garage? Where cars and whatnot are. And you didn't noticed it was black and gross smelling. Do you always use black detergent? 'Cause my detergent is blue and meadow scented.

To be fair, you don't necessarily look at what you're pouring before it's poured. She could have only poured a little bit before she realized - she didn't say she went and poured the whole thing and ran the washer and what not before she noticed. Anyway, that sucks. Maybe you could tie-dye it any make it look even better?
Starchild21 3
agreed
amaranthphantom 0
finally, someone with sense. She might have just poured a little bit. It's still gonna stain the white comforter... Or hell, maybe she had lots of shit to do, and wasn't paying attention. I mean, do all of you "YDI" posters really check your laundry detergent for motor oil? Probably not, as I bet your mom does your laundry. I say FYL, OP.

I believe this because my dad changed his motorcycle oil and put it into a clorox container. The auto parts guy refused to accept it. And also, I think she wanted to pre-treat her stain with the detergent. It doesn't really mean she poured it into the washing machine. PS: People put all sorts of things in garages. I know tons of people who have an extra fridge. It's not weird at all....
Starchild21 3
except she implies that she did
letitbe56 0
It doesn't imply that she put it in the washing machine at all. If she was treating a stain, it would make the most sense to assume that she put it directly on the stain. (I'm thinking the people assuming she put it in the machine are laundry neophytes at best.) I don't see how there is any way she could have deserved this. When I grab a jug of Tide, I don't think to check to see if it's motor oil. FYL, OP.
