Today, good news! The guitar I have been saving up for, for 5 months, finally arrived. It came inside a beautiful black and white case, and impossible to get into without the key. They didn't pack the key. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally had enough to buy my dream guitar, made in 1965. I buckled it into the passenger seat because it unfortunately didn't come with the original case. Once home, I tripped over my own feet before reaching my front door and scratched it on the concrete. It wasn't in mint condition when I bought it, but now it looks like it had a bad relic job. FML
Today, I have a new guitar on its way. I forgot to make up a story, so now my wife won't be happy. FML
Today, I dropped my 6-month-old $3,500 guitar. Luckily, it had a one year warranty from the store so I drove back. It was shut down. FML
Today, my girlfriend and her mother bought a hanger for my $2000 guitar as a birthday present. They wanted to surprise me by hanging it on the wall. They screwed it upside down, so before I came home it fell off and my guitar broke. FML
Today, after I spent 3 months secretly learning guitar so I could surprise everyone at a family barbecue, the moment finally came. I sat down, took a deep breath, and realized I'd practiced every song with a capo I forgot to bring, as well as my tuner. Everything sounded terrible. My uncle asked if I was improvising Free Jazz. FML
Today, after months of wondering what a mysterious key I found in an old kitchen drawer unlocked, I finally discovered it fit the lock on a storage unit. I opened it and found a box containing three other keys I had also forgotten about. FML
Today, my house was broken into. How? My mom left a key under a flower pot on the porch. She also left a note on the door saying so. He stole all of my guitars. FML
Today, I spent the entire day packing my car full of boxes for my move tomorrow. When I finally finished, I realized I didn't have the car key. It's inside one of the boxes. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally played the new guitar I bought to replace the one he broke. He used a $1000 guitar to play me a moving song about my butt. FML
Today, my new mailbox key finally arrived. Not at the front door as I requested, but in the mailbox. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I doubt your life SUCKS because they forgot to send you a key that opens a guitar you've been saving up for 5 months. Anyone with common sense would call the company and they'll send you the key at no expense. The only thing that sucks is that you just have to be more patient and wait for the key to arrive.

I had a friend who suicided for just this reason. It is a big deal. I mean, this is the guitar he had been saving up for, for 5 months.

agree with number 9, no big deal at all... earlier this summer my $1,000 new windsurfing sailboard came beautifully packed and they forgot to pack the fin, so I *gasp* called them and they sent down the missing essential part. No big deal.

never ever buy a guitar without having played it. (thus, don't internet-order it.) YDI for that exact reason.

You could probably get it opened without damage at a locksmith's. It'll cost you and the situation sucks, but you're not totally screwed.

And this is FML why? They forgot to send you the key. Call a locksmith and have them make you a key. Or call them and make them overnight you a key at their expense for not shipping it to you in the first place.

Most lockable guitar cases use the same universal key.
