Today, after the two week winter break, I went back to school to find that the bookbag that I'd left in my car was covered in some creepy, pink gooey stuff. Under the freezing conditions, my lotion had exploded all over my notes and bag. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I discovered my water bottle had leaked and spilled water all over my backpack, ruining my notebooks, soaking my schoolbooks, and destroying my midterm portfolio. FML
Today, while getting ice cream with a friend, her car got broken into. Nothing was taken except my backpack, which contained assignments making up 50% or more for grades in four separate classes. FML
Today, as the weather is getting cold, I got my cozy fall sweater out of the closet. I soon realized I had left a candy bar in the pocket sometime last year, and it had melted all over the inside. FML
Today, I went into my classroom to find a bag of shit on my desk with a note saying, "Thanks for failing me b*tch!" FML
Today, someone left sticky notes with inspirational messages on everyone's locker. Well, almost everyone. My locker was the only one without a note. FML
Today, I was sitting in Science class and to my surprise I felt my pants suddenly becoming warm and wet. I looked behind me to see that 4 boys from my class had inserted a small funnel into my exposed buttcrack and where pouring the melted butter from the experiment into that area. FML
Today, I bought a fancy reusable water bottle because I wanted to be properly hydrated. On the first day, I filled it, put it in my backpack, and went to work. Six hours later, I discovered the lid wasn't fully closed. My laptop survived, but every document in my bag smelled like cucumber. FML
Today, I went out to get groceries and ice-cream. When I got home, I couldn't find my house keys. I retraced my steps, but with no luck. I returned home and had to break in. While unpacking, I found my keys in the bag, right next to the completely melted ice cream. FML
Today, I took my binder on a short road trip two hours away from my home, so that I could study for my upcoming finals. When I got home, I realized I that had left my binder all the way there, containing my notes, classwork, homework, finals notes, etc. FML
Today, my book bag was so heavy that it set off my car's passenger detection system in the front seat. I had to buckle in my textbooks. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I smell shenanigans. Most lotions are water based, so it wouldn't just explode, it would freeze inside the bottle. Perhaps the bottle cracks because the ice expands, but unless the lotion thawed, and leaked out the crack, it wouldn't just ooze out.

Happened to me before, lotionexplosion, and how to explain that to your teacher?

I don't know if lotion explodes in freezing conditions or not, but why would anyone care? Wiping the lotion off the bag or putting it in the wash would take at most 30 minutes of total time to fix. Plus, it's a new semester for every school in America, who cares about your old notes? This is so irrelevant it borders on the non-existent. I mean, are there submitters here who walk around going "the first moderately inconvenient thing that happens to me, I'm submitting this to FML"? Is this what people think of when they think "**** my life": lotion inside a bookbag?

new semester doesn't start until late January, and some schools have midterm testing that they need the notes for. But yes people do just want something to post

In my area, the high schools resume after break and have 2 weeks until the new semester starts. And it's also possible that this isn't from a high school student. And though colleges all start new semesters after the break, it's possible that the OP Is taking a sequential class, or would have a need to consult otherwise-outdated notes. And if there were any textbooks in the bag, whether high school or college, the OP is screwed. That shit's expensive.

My university has finals after winter break (which was only two weeks this year). We don't start a new semester until February.

It's like this numnutz: An expanding liquid could explode a container. At best, you left the cap loose or unscrewed. At worse, the container cracked from the cold and the liquid leaked. I suspect the former. FYL for the mess. FYL for your ignorance. FYL for avoiding responsibility.
