Today, I was walking down the stairs with my guitar in hand, singing, "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" to my wife. I sang, "I don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall…" Before I could say "…asleep", I fell down the stairs. My wife almost pissed her pants laughing. My bum hurts. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was performing for a fairly large crowd with my band. I decided it would look cool to stand on one of the speakers and sing from there. It did look pretty cool for a bit until I tried to step off and fell face-first on the floor mid-song. FML
Today, I was getting ready for school and stepped out on my porch to go wait for the bus. I literally said out loud, “Today is gonna be a good day.” I took one step and fell all the way down the stairs. FML
Today, I was walking up some stairs, and I told the guy in front of me to be careful, as the handrail was loose and well-worn. I then put my hand on it, and promptly fell backwards down the stairs with a piece of handrail still in my hand. FML
Today, after a month of things going wrong in my life and finally getting better, I woke up refreshed and ready to face the day. Then, I fell down the stairs. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs while reading the 'mind your step' sign. FML
Today, while playing a gig with my band, I tried pulling the classic "playing the guitar with one foot on the monitor" rock-star pose. However, I misjudged the height of the monitor, didn't notice the puddle of beer in front of it, slipped, and fell off the stage into the security guy. FML
Today, I laced up my fabulous new boots and walked outside to find my hot neighbor, with whom I carpool every morning. I struck a pose, feeling quite confident. Upon taking my first step down the stairs, I fell forward. I woke up an hour later with 7 stitches in my head. FML
Today, I was walking down the street with my acoustic guitar on my back. I saw a girl that I like coming down the opposite way, so I decided to play my guitar to try and impress her. I started to tune it quickly, but while I wasn't paying attention, I ran into a pole. Now my guitar is cracked. FML
Today, I was walking down my very steep basement stairs when I fell and rolled all the way down but luckily I didn't hurt anything. While walking back up around the very last stair, my cat jumped out on me, causing me to roll all the way back down. FML
Today, I went to a karaoke bar that my girlfriend works at. I'm a halfway decent singer, so I picked out a song we both liked and decided to give it a go. Halfway through the song I sneezed, tripped, fell off the stage and knocked myself out in front of my girlfriend and fifty bar patrons. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Rule #1 of any instrumental accident: check the equipment first

I'm sure the sex afterwards makes up for any butt pain you may have.

I don't know how someone doesn't laugh at this :) Sorry that you hurt yourself, but this will make a great story to tell your friends

I didn't laugh because I recently fell down a flight of stairs and was injured so badly that I couldn't walk for days. My doctor put me on heavy duty anti inflammatory painkillers and told me I wasn't allowed to work for two weeks. It's been a month now and it still hurts. So I don't actually think falling down stairs is very funny. If OP was hurt even half as badly as I was, then I feel terrible for him and hope he has good painkillers because he'll be needing them for quite a while.

There's probably a different website for "Things that actually Really **** Up My Life". This site is meant for more humorous stuff. Sorry for your pain.

And that's why you eat all your meat and veggies, 45. Not just the vegetables.

@64 There are some really sad and messed up fmls on here, most are humorous but there are some that are heart-wrenching.

Steven Tyler is a god! any song he sings is a great song!!!
EMTchic 14
Are you kidding me?! That song is amazing! I love that song to pieces! (and not just because it is me and my fiancé's song, either! Although that fact may have a hand in my opinion as well...)
