Today, I came home to find my younger daughter left her silly band collection on the carpet in front of the fireplace. I now have melted unicorns and princesses stuck in my carpet. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I came home from work to find my five year old daughter drawing unicorns on the wall. The same wall that I had to repaint last week because it had puppies on it. FML
Today, my daughter somehow got a hold of the lighter we keep on top of the fridge. I found this out when she snuck up behind me and thought it would be fun to set my hair on fire. FML
Today, my girlfriend tried to clean out the fireplace with a vacuum cleaner, she sucked up a bunch of embers which set the vacuum on fire. After a crying for a bit, she went back to finish cleaning up only to find that some embers she dumped in a bucket melted through and set part of the carpet on fire. FML
Today, my daughter lost a tooth. I wanted to make the Tooth Fairy experience extra special, so I dipped her doll's feet in paint to leave “tracks” from the window to her bed. As I was adding the finishing touches and spreading glitter, I tripped on a toy, faceplanted and lost my own tooth. FML
Today, I came home from work to find white fabric and crystals all over the apartment floor. I followed the trail of destruction to my bedroom, where my roommate had left our closet door open. Apparently, her cats decided that my wedding gown was to be their newest conquest. FML
Today, I found my 6 year-old daughter upstairs, lying on the floor with scissors. She was giving, "the carpet a haircut." FML
Today, my daughter tried to cover up her relapse into pyromania by explaining to me that the reason our carpet caught on fire was because a hot coal somehow worked its way free from the fireplace. Our fireplace is electric. FML
Today, I babysat my niece and thought a quick shower would be fine. I left her watching cartoons with a blanket and returned to find she’d used washable paints on the carpet and her hands, leaving tiny colorful footprints to the couch. Her proud smile made me forgive the mess, but I spent the evening scrubbing. FML
Today, my daughter threw a can of hairspray into the fireplace because she saw someone do it on YouTube. FML
Today, I got home to the smell of permanent marker and the discovery that my roommate's little sister had drawn flower petals around every polka dot she could reach on my walls. I just put up the wallpaper last weekend. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

@60, and it only cost $3.50 to make all of them. That's a way to turn a profit.

I wonder if OP has tile around their fireplace to keep her carpet from melting. If she doesn't, why not? And if she does, why would the silly bands melt?

Today I was playing infront of my moms fire place when I heard her coming back from work. a minute later I heard her screaming only to find out that there were melted silly bands in the carpet. She never bought me any..only my older sister has them. FML

This would be a super FML if: -OP lived in a third world country where she had to scrub the carpet by hand. -OP had a spinal problem.

You really wouldn't be able to get out melted objects from a carpet other than by hand... in fact you'd probably have to replace that section entirely.

@88, What? :0 Wow, with today's technology one would expect some kind of gadget so you wouldn't have to use your bare hands. I stand corrected. :[
docscientist 10
Maybe, but not that I've heard of. :/

They're just evolving beyond the trend.

Hahaaa that sucks, though it's one more reason for my case against them. Could a carpet-cleaning take care of it?

Wh...wh...what? This make no sense without punctuation. Then again, I'm not sure it would me sense WITH punctuation either.

My friend has one. Its supposed to be some kind of gun but it looks like a penis
ChibiChibi_fml 28
I'm willing to bet they probably do make some form of penis shaped silly bands in sex toy shops. It would make sense since they pretty much sell penis shaped everything else for bachelorette parties and such.

Spencers sells them.. although obviously its an off brand of "silly bandz" but they are impossible to tell the difference.
thrAsHeRr9081 16
They do at Spencers

Spencer's makes penis shaped everything.
