Today, I learned that even when you put a sock on the door because you are having sex with your boyfriend, it doesn't mean your mom won't walk into your brand new apartment for a "surprise visit." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I learned that just because you live on a different continent, it doesn't mean your mother won't come knocking when you are having sex. FML
Today, I’m 20 and my mom is well aware I’m having sex. Nonetheless, this morning when my boyfriend was going down on me under the covers, she marched into my room without knocking, dumped a load of wet laundry on my sofa, and walked back out. FML
Today, I realized why it's not a good idea to sleep with your boyfriend when he still lives with his mom. She may walk in, make you get dressed, and demand what you have to say for yourself. Trust me, "Your son is good at sex" is not the right answer. FML
Today, I was having sex with my boyfriend. I was about to suck his dick when my mom walked in. FML
Today, my mom visited my new apartment for the first time. I was showing her the bedroom, when she looked into my opened sock drawer and said, "Using Durex, eh? Yeah, you were born 'cause a Trojan split." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had sex. His mom didn’t know much about it, and she walked in on us. After about 5 minutes she came back up, threw a box of condoms at us, says, "Continue" and walked out. We were still fucking while she was in the room. FML
Today, my boyfriend snuck out of my room so he could have sex with my mom in the next room. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had our parents over to our new apartment for the first time. We spent hours cleaning, cooking, and making sure everything was "parent-appropriate." Apparently we didn't notice the BDSM catalog in the pile on our coffee table... but his mom sure did. FML
Today, I needed to ask my mom for something, so I went to her room without knocking and walked in on her and her boyfriend fucking. FML
Today, my mom walked in on me and my boyfriend having sex. She was completely embarrassed (as was I) and she flew out of the room. My boyfriend, on the other hand, still wanted to finish. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

actually, that's not true. i'm currently in college and the sign for having sex isn't a sock on the door. it's locking the damned thing.

Sock on the door means your getting laid and no1 can come in

you obviously never had sex in college. a sock on the door is the international symbol of: people are getting it on in here, stay out.

mmm...i'm a little surprised by the number of people who don't know what the sock means. either they haven't been to college, or they were REALLY unlucky for four years...

Just locking the door doesn't help when your roommate has a key to your dorm room :p

@ 7 & 11 I'm assuming I'm probably the same generation as OP's mom and I think the sock thing is fairly new. It used to be a tie on the door knob. A sock on the door knob just meant you were a slob

#1 Lock your door! #2 Ask your mom to respect your privacy and knock before entering regardless of if it's a suprise.

#15 very good :D 1) Never ever give your parents the key to your apartment. Only if you're on vacation and someone has to take care of the cats. Or plants. 2) Like #15 said, lock the damn door if you're *******.

This guy is right. For a roommate, a locked door tells them nothing.

Yeah, at my college, we'd use midgets. They'd stand outside and keep guard. It's again, one of those symbolic practices that we get used to.

Well, you could always push some furniture behind your door.

#15: If you live alone, a locked door is all you need. If you have a roommate, who has a key to your shared dorm room, you need some other symbol. A sock on the door has become a college way to signal your roommate not to come in -- somewhat less awkward than either calling to say "hey, I'm going to have sex for a while" or having him/her walk in on you. In this case, though, OP has his own apartment and his mom obviously isn't his roommate. More than that, it's a brand new apartment. Either he didn't lock his door, or the first thing he did when he got his new apartment was take a key to his mother. YDI, totally.

I never gave my mother the key to my apartment - the landlord let her in to my apartment a few times when I didn't want her in the building at all

OP = Woman.

cxal - I think even in the US, the landlord needs to give 24 hours notice. Tell him not to break the law anymore. OP: install a door chain.

well first of when you say apartment i really dont emmidiatly think about college (maybe its just a wrong translation on my part since im dutch..) and secondly even in college they have locks on the doors.. ydi all the way

Well where my brother-in-law went to college the door doesn't have a real lock, it had a deadbolt sort of thing that anyone could just walk into your room in the middle of the night. His roommate had this creepy guy walk right into his room in the middle of the night and watched him sleep. The college is pretty ghetto though

wta symbol does the sock represent? do not disturb?

#1, a sock is sort of the universal collegiate symbol not to enter because someone is getting laid. however, it is more than likely your parents are not going to assume that off the bat...i would suggest locking the door in the future.

hahahah... why a sock... i thought it was a hat

I just assume any article of clothing on a door handle means "sex.. do not disturb."

Locks on your apartment door would help a lot! Number 2 you're an idiot.

See. Instead of taking the time to find a sock, make sure it's clean, head out to the door, open the door, shove the sock onto the door, close the door, open the door to make sure the sock is still on and close the door again, I would have just LOCKED THE DAMN DOOR
