Today, I woke up to the realization that the 2-hour nap I wanted to take before I went out with my friends last night was actually a 12-hour nap. I missed everything. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I took a quick nap before going out with friends. I set an alarm for 30 minutes. When I woke up, I thought it had been a few minutes, so I jumped up, got my coat, and ran out the door. Turns out, my nap lasted 5 hours, and I missed the entire night out. My friends are still sending me pictures of them having fun. FML
Today, I realised just how badly I procrastinate because I wanted to take a nap before going out for a friend's birthday, but I kept putting it off until I simply didn't have the time. FML
Today, I woke up in a complete daze. It took me a few minutes to realize what had happened. Apparently my sleepwalking problems have returned, only this time I managed to overdose myself with Nyquil. As a result, I slept for fourteen hours, wet my sheets, and lost my job. FML
Today, I went to the airport a full three hours before my flight departure time just to be on the safe side. I ended up having the best nap of my life and missing my flight. FML
Today, I woke up after taking the new sleeping pills I was prescribed for my insomnia. I slept for 12 hours and had 5 missed calls from my boss. FML
Today, I set aside some time to take a power nap at my desk. I set an alarm, but it didn't go off. I woke up hours later to find my coworkers had surrounded my desk, taking bets on when I'd wake up. FML
Today, after countless nights of no sleep and only some spontaneous naps, I was finally seeing a sleeping doctor to analyze the problem. I missed the appointment because I ended up sleeping through my alarm after not being able to sleep at all last night. FML
Today, I thought I'd been really clever by setting my alarm ten minutes earlier to get up on time. I did wake up ten minutes earlier… then promptly fell back asleep for another hour. FML
Today, I took a nap on my couch. I woke up three hours later to my neighbor knocking on my door, asking if I was OK because looking from the outside in, they thought I was dead. Guess I sleep like I’ve been hit by a truck. FML
Today, I went to bed early, feeling responsible. At 2 a.m., I woke up in a panic because I forgot to set my alarm. While fixing it, I actually turned it off completely. I overslept, missed work, and proved once again that I should never trust myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

nap fail. Hardly an FML.

"Why bother using an alarm clock when you're just taking a nap?" Because you could end up sleeping for 12 hours.

Haha, that's happened to me before. 8:30 hey naptime until like 10! Wake up at 4 in the morning, disoriented. Not fun.

Yeah, it's always a fun feeling. Disorientation, with a knot of panic in your stomach for missing your plans.

Always use an alarm just in case, dipshit.

Alarms don't work on everyone. I always set 5 alarms on my phone, and sleep through them all.

That happens to me too. My roommate woke me up at 10 this morning when she came in, and my alarm was still ringing. It was set to 8:30.

This is such a dumb FML. "Today I overslept for something not terribly important. FML" I mean come-on. Clearly this was nothing more than a get together, otherwise it would have been more than a "I missed everything" at the end. So you overslept, big ******* deal. Why are you complaining? It's not like you will never be able to spend time with your "friends" again. Who by the way aren't very good friends if they didn't bother trying to find out where you were.
