Today, while studying for a big test at the library, some idiots started playing hide-and-seek. After putting up with their snorting and giggling for nearly an hour, I finally lost my shit and told them to knock it off. I then got kicked out for causing a disturbance. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was working on a project in my school's library when a group of teenagers came in and began talking and laughing and being loud. When I asked them to please quiet down, the librarian asked me to leave for being too loud. FML
Today, I went to the library to study an upcoming exam. I sat in a quiet corner and was feeling focused. Suddenly, I sneezed so loudly that the entire library went silent. I could feel the stares of every student on me as I tried to pretend I didn’t just disrupt the entire study session. FML
Today, I had a big exam. Twenty minutes in I could feel people turning round looking at me. I ignored them at first, but towards the one hour mark it got more distracting. I stood up and yelled, "Why's everyone staring at me!" I got kicked out. Turns out I was seated directly in front of the clock. FML
Today, I was at the library doing research for my midterm. All of the computers were in use, so I decided to use my laptop instead. Ten minutes later, I was confronted and kicked out. My offense? Unauthorized use of the library's so-called "Free Public WiFi". FML
Today, my roommate told me that she was studying in the library. Turns out, she didn't feel like going to the library and just spent all afternoon studying in a friend's room because she didn't think I was capable of shutting up for long enough to get any work done. Our other friends agreed. FML
Today, I was in a quiet library, trying to stifle a sneeze. In the process, I let out an embarrassingly loud and dramatic snort that echoed through the room. Heads turned. Many stared. FML
Today, my friend wasn't responding to my whispers in the library, so I walked over and very slightly moved his chair. At that exact moment, the librarian walked in. Regardless of our efforts to tell her anything, she got us banned from the library. FML
Today, I was at the library. I went near the computer section when I saw this man cursing and pounding his fists on a computer. He left. I thought I'd check it out. As I sat down, a librarian came over with the security guard and pointed at me. I'm now being fined for destroying public property. FML
Today, I was at the library studying. There was a really cute guy across the room. I decided to play it cool and walk his way and grab some water. Right as I walked by, my body decided to let out the loudest fart. He laughed. I kept walking and asked my friend to grab my books. FML
Today, I snuck a snack into a library study hall. One tiny crinkle of the wrapper and every head turned like I’d detonated a siren. I tried to nibble silently, misjudged the crunch, dropped the pack, and it performed an encore. The professor glared at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Going to some who can actually do something about it is always the better option, especially if you stopping them creates more of a disturbance usually than they were.

If they were laughing and yelling wouldn't the librarian have noticed?

No respect anymore.

Maybe their regular place was all booked up

That librarian sounds really, really bad at her job. Hope you found a quiet place to study!

If it is at uni there might not have been a librarian on the floor (our uni library is 24/7 and we don't have a lot of supervision on upper floors). Might not have been a uni library though.

If someone kicked the OP out there must have been someone there.

Personally I think hide and seek in the library is a novel idea. Of course if you get caught it's hard (to) cover it up. All your yelling did,was make you the author of your own demise. They kept playing and expended Seth energy and stress and you lost out in the end

I've never met Seth energy. Could you introduce me sometime?

I was using voice activated dictation and didn't proofread it should've said excess energy. LOL

LOL I figured it was an autocorrect/dictation issue, just couldn't resist taking advantage of the humor in it. I feel your pain though - I think English was Siri's second or maybe third language.

Did you turn the game back on them by hiding outside the building and tackling them when they came out?

Sounds like you should loosen up

How would you be even able to play hide and seek in a library, it's all isles and you would have to stay mobile the whole time
