Today, I finally used the statistics book that I forked out $120 to buy. To kill an ant. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I bought my very first college textbook. I received a stack of hole-punched papers. My $195 "book" isn’t even bound together. FML
Today, I saw a small bug on the wall, so I decided to send it straight to the insect afterlife by smashing it with a book. The book crushed it, and caused my clock to come free from the wall and crash down onto my TV. FML
Today, I went to the local used books store to sell all my college textbooks. I spent several hundred dollars on them in total. I ended up walking out of the shop a pathetic $3.50 richer. FML
Today, I was at work when my mother called. She gave me great news that she had finally cleaned out my room and all those "old and useless" books that I had in there. Those "useless" books that she had just trashed were all antiques and worth about $500 each. There were 27 books in there. FML
Today, I woke up early to weird scratching and smacking noises. After gathering enough courage to check what it was, I found out it was just an ant stuck on a piece of paper. FML
Today, I sprayed down some ants in my house. In the sea of ant corpses was a single living ant seemingly cradling a dead one in its arms. I'm convinced I just became the villain in an epic tragedy. Now I have to live with my ant problem because I can't bear to tear another family apart. FML
Today, I got up, curtains still closed, and in the dim light noticed something dark on the floor, which wasn’t there yesterday. I turned on the light to find out what it was. A tiny ant hill. FML
Today, my roommate thought it would be a good idea to show me his huge new tarantula despite knowing that I have extremely severe arachnophobia. I ended up killing it with a book and apparently now owe him $500. FML
Today, I woke up to find that my cat had knocked over a $35 can of powdered baby formula, and there were TWO different colonies of ants warring over the bounty all over the counter. FML
Today, I found a horde of ants in one of my socks when I put it on my foot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Or that the ant is a statistic. 34% of ants die each year in unused text book accidents.

You'll use it one day... Who knows... Maybe you'll need to place it under a table leg that is shorter than the other three. Or maybe you'll run into a taxi driver who is vertically challenged, and will give you a free ride somewhere just for giving him something to sit on. Gotta be optimistic, my friend.

...but you don't get dick for them. I spent $170 on a chem book and they offered me $5 to buy it back. Then sometimes they won't even buy some of them back. I only sold back like 2 books this semester because they weren't buying all of them back.

The probability that the ant is dead equals 1.

I hate when teachers make you buy a book and they never use it. I paid $218 for a Biology book and it still has the wrapper on it and the school won't buy it back from me until late July and I bought it last August. College -_-
