Today, as I was using my mom's computer, a spider crawled onto the screen. So as per my usual reaction to seeing a spider, I smashed it as fast as I could. I missed the spider, but now I have to buy my mom a new monitor. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a spider crawled across my glasses' lens. My first reaction was to smack myself in the face. FML
Today, I saw a spider crawling across a poster in my bedroom, so I smacked the spot below it to scare the spider into climbing back up the wall. Instead, because the poster wasn't completely flat to the wall, I catapulted the spider straight into my face. FML
Today, I saw a spider in my room. I got a piece of paper to try and put it outside. As I reached, it jumped out of nowhere and landed on my face. My reaction was to smack where the spider was - my face. I fell on the floor disoriented. The spider got away. FML
Today, I was washing my hands in the bathroom when I looked up and saw a spider on my cheek. Panicking, I slapped myself in the face as hard as I could to kill it. Turns out the spider was on the mirror. FML
Today, I saw what I thought was a spider. Wanting to kill it as quickly as possible, I smacked my hand against the wall with force. It was a nail. FML
Today, I saw a spider in my kitchen. Freaked, but trying to be humane, I held out a piece of paper so it would climb on, and I would then put it outside. However, it jumped out of nowhere and landed on my face. My reaction was to whack at where the spider was - my face. I stumbled around, disoriented; the spider got away. FML
Today, as I was watching a DVD, I noticed a spider crawling on my crotch area. So, I panicked and smashed the spider, smashing my nuts in the process. FML
Today, I was laying on the couch, reading, when I noticed a spindly leg poking round the corner of my book. Upon realising it was a spider, I calmly and rationally threw my book across the room, breaking the TV. FML
Today, I found a big spider on my wall. I have arachnophobia, and I was trying to kill it with my shoe. I pulled back and hit myself in the face, causing me to fall backwards. The spider is still alive somewhere in my house. FML
Today, my mum vented her anger on me by shattering my mouse on the floor, taking my keyboard and nearly ripping out my monitor. At least a spare mouse and the on screen keyboard are better than nothing. This hurts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why is everyone saying YDI? Maybe that's the OP's natural reaction to a spider. You can't fight instinct. I'm glad the thing was okay, FYL though.

Good thing it wasn't a butterfly. She'd have to buy her mom a new monitor, computer, desk and wall.

Wow you didn't have to punch the shit out a spider to kill it smart one. You can just flick it with your finger. YDI for being scared of a little spider.

I hate spiders too, most of them bite. But YDI for not actually paying attention to the surface you were killing it on. Ever think about waiting until it crawled on the desk or another hard surface?

I HATE SPIDERS!!! Once I had this huge fat barn spider drop down in front of my face. I had two wooden blocks in my hands, so I smooshed it. The guts came flying out and I hit me in the face. I was traumatized for months. It gives me the shivers just to think about it.

Maybe it was karma for killing it? How would you feel if someone got two cars and crushed you. The spider did nothing wrong

Why does everyone seem to hate spiders? There are loads of little spiders living in and around my house and we all leave them alone and they leave us alone. When they stray into our areas, we put them back into their corners. Just by leaving them alone, we have almost no bug problem. Same at my dad's place; all the centipedes (and we almost never even SEE them) keep out the occasional cockroach that we had to deal with.

It's probably a cheap plastic screen, not too difficult to break. If it were glass like most old CRT monitors, that'd be much more of an accomplishment.

Just be thankful it wasn't an iMac, or you'd have to be buying a whole new computer :p.
