Today, I broke my dominant hand. My teacher insists we hand-write our essays. I called and asked if it was okay for me to type up the essays. She said no. I have two essays due tomorrow, which count for half my grade. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my teacher told me that she couldn't find my hand-written essay on the Renaissance, and that I have to re-do it all by tomorrow. I later saw my essay on her desk, covered in a massive coffee stain that made virtually everything unreadable. FML
Today, I had to hand write a 10 page essay for one of my classes. When I turned it in I got an automatic zero. It was written in blue. Not black. FML
Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. FML
Today, I received a Saturday detention because the assignment I'd handed in had different handwriting. I've been practicing my handwriting skills for the past month. FML
Today, I was told that, although I was sick on the last day before break, they would still accept the 24 page essay that I had written. Tonight, as I went to print it out, I found that my dad had "cleaned up a bit" on my computer, including the documents from last semester. I have school tomorrow. FML
Today, I had my teacher look over my essay before turning it in. He said it was extremely well-written, so I handed it in. When I got it back, the feedback he left said it was one of the worst essays he'd ever read. FML
Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML
Today, in the class I'm teaching, I assigned my students an essay to complete for homework. One student asked me if I was deducting points for bad spelling. I teach English. FML
Today, I turned in my homework. Too bad I accidentally handed in the printed answer sheet I found online to copy from. FML
Today, I attempted to cheat on a test by writing some notes on my hand. During the test I had a question. I raised my hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You guys are dumb as ****. If he called his teacher, do you really think he would leave out the "I broke my hand, which is why I'm asking"?

lol write the papers with your other hand and when the teacher can't read it and gives it back tell them that your other hand is broken and they wouldn't let you type it so unless they let you type it, that's the way it's gonna be

Type it out, have someone hand-write the essays for you, at the very end of the hand written essays have the person use the MLA format for noting dictation. Hand in the typed essay, the hand written essay, the doctor's diagnosis, and a typed letter to your professor telling him he's an *explicative* ..... and send a copy of everything care of the dean of the department. For added bonus points, note all the recipients of the assignment in the header.

Funny, I would have assumed your dominant hand broke your submissive hand, not the other way around...

Is your whole hand immobilized? I've broken my wrist twice, had to have my thumb immobilized as well on the first one due to the location of the fracture, but I was still able to write (albiet sloppily), and do most anything except put my hair in a ponytail. If not, you can claim ADA, even though it's only a temporary disability. My experience is schools don't want to deal with paperwork in that area and will work with you (My sisters are both teachers in a very rednecky area, and my band director in high school knocked me down a chair because she set up the challenge right after the 2nd broken wrist).

Well, did you actually tell her your hand was broken? How many weeks have you known about this assignment?
