Today, I was at a family dinner, which had gone into meltdown after my aunt said something sarcastic about my mother's drinking. I went out for some fresh air and stumbled about in the dark, unaware of the fact that a pool was being dug. I fell into the huge hole and lost a shoe. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I fell into a hole. And by hole, I mean a sewer. FML
Today, I found my missing shoe. It hit me as it fell out the tree in our front yard. FML
Today, I was at my friend's birthday party, dancing barefoot because my feet hurt from my shoes' heels. Apparently, someone dropped a glass on the dancefloor and didn't warn anybody. I ended up having to drive myself to the emergency room because all my friends were "having too much fun to leave." FML
Today, I was having a good time drinking with a few friends. Next thing I know, I'm walking down an unknown street, with just one shoe, no wallet and no phone. FML
Today, I was at my friends' farm and we decided that we wanted to go to their old treehouse. When we got down there, it turned out my friend Cat had forgotten her shoes. Being a gentleman, I lent her my sandals. I then climbed the treehouse, fell out, and got a nail through my foot. FML
Today, I was feeling stressed about some upcoming exams, so I went on a nice relaxing nature walk through the nearby bushland. I slipped off a rock and landed in knee-deep mud that claimed my shoe when I pulled my leg free. I'm even more stressed now. FML
Today, after I drank way too much, my friend pulled the car over so I could throw up. Next to my pile of puke was a discarded shoe that looked remarkably like one from my favorite pair. When I got home, I realized that my left shoe was missing. FML
Today, I was wearing flip flops whilst putting out the trash, and was careful not to step near the broken glass surrounding the trash cans. My mother ran up to me hysterically warning me about the glass, which startled me and caused me to step on a shard, slicing my foot open. FML
Today, I couldn't find my reading glasses, thinking perhaps i'd dropped them outside, I stepped off my deck bare foot, straight into a steaming dog turd. Only to see my glasses chewed up a few feet away. It went between my toes. FML
Today, I was playing Spikeball with some friends when the ball got lost and went rolling towards a pond. As I sprinted to grab it before it fell in the water, my shoe came off, causing me to trip and faceplant into the mud. I then watched as the ball rolled into the pond. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think this should be an illustrated FML. The mental picture I got from this was great.

Always remember to have a flashlight, so next time that doesn't happen :)

Of course how could OP forget to bring their flashlight to a family dinner.

i always carry some kind of light source, it's just common sense. even the light from the screen of OP's cellphone could've prevented this.

I always fall in holes. They aren't even there! I know I'd fall into the pool. Then once I fell, I'd get up and fall into another hole that isn't even there.

#33) I'm pretty sure if you're falling into them, they're there.

I like to go for a dip when I'm feeling stressed. But you might want to make sure there's water next time (;

Pool? Nay i say you just fell in someone's elaborate trap.

And failed to mention the sharpened bamboo chutes at the bottom.

You should have stayed and defended your mom's drinking. Explain to your aunt that if she had kids like you, she'd be a sloppy wino, too.

This kinda reminds me of "the little fockers" without the family bitching about of course.

And a little less nudity.

Unfinished pools remind me of that "Poltergeist" scene with the dead corpes floating to the top because they forgot to move the bodies! :o

That's what I was thinking. I wondered if someone would mention that.
