Today, my apartment complex added $250 to the $1,000 my roomate and I already owe because of an unauthorized pet and complaints from neighbors that our dog barks all night long. We don't have a dog, we don't even have a pet. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my roommate and I got charged $100 for having a cat in our apartment. I was only babysitting the cat so my neighbors wouldn't get caught and fined. We got caught because my roommate reported the people downstairs for having a noisy dog, so they reported that someone else in the building had a cat. FML
Today, I got several noise complaints from various neighbours about my "dog that won't stop barking". I don't own a dog, my neighbour owns the noisy dog. She sent me a complaint as well. FML
Today, I asked my landlord if I could get a dog. He said no, and gave me an illegal rent increase. FML
Today, I received a $500 fine for an "unruly" dog. I don't have a dog. FML
Today, our landlord has begun eviction proceedings because he’s received over 100 complaints about our dog, who barks constantly, and who my wife has stubbornly refused to get rid of. My wife has basically forced us to choose between that fucking mutt and being homeless. FML
Today, my landlord came to my apartment because of complaints from my neighbors, saying that animals are not allowed inside. Turns out my roommate makes cat-noises when she's bored. My landlord still doesn't believe me. FML
Today, I came home to an eviction notice after an apartment inspection. The reason? Having an unauthorized pet that could cause unnecessary damage to my suite. My pet is a goldfish. FML
Today, most of my neighbours came to my house in an angry mob to complain about my dog barking. I don't have a dog. FML
Today, I was given an ultimatum; either get rid of my beloved dog who’s my literal only source of happiness, or find a new place to live (which I can’t afford). My asshole neighbors keep complaining about my sweet boy’s barking, meanwhile their bratty bastards are 10 times louder. It’s not fair. FML
Today, my door broke. My normally reclusive, antisocial cat, who runs and hides at the slightest noise, decided to come out and get friendly with the maintenance man. Now I owe a huge fee and my rent is increasing for having a pet I’m not supposed to have. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

this is just like the other FML where a guy got fined $200 when his/her neighbors complained about the dog...but it turns out he didn't own a dog...even if your story is real, keep it to yourself because no one wants to read repeats of lame FMLs.

So that's it then? You are going to pay the extra $250 just because they asked you to pay?

I would say, "I don't have a dog." Instead of writing a FML about it, and paying 250 dollars for nothing. The most disturbing part of this is that this extra 250 dollars isn't really the FML. The FML is this, "I just found out today I'm an idiot because my rent was increased by 250 dollars because the landlord mistakenly thought I owned a pet dog and I just accepted it and complained online about how my life sucks."

And then my landlord came over and saw that we don't actually have a dog. MLIA

Copycat FMLs are lame. It's not like that should be hard to fight since you don't have a pet anyway. Get real.

Stop pooping in the hallways and humping your neighbors' legs and you won't keep racking up fines.

They have to first check your apartment to find out if you have a dog. I would fight it and say that you've never had a dog in the apartment. The landlord has to prove it first which of coarse he can't
