Today, I found out that one of my best mates had his backpack, clothes, and everything else in it stolen at an airport overseas. I was feeling sorry for him all day. It took me 9 hours to remember that I actually loaned him my backpack for his trip. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I arrived at the airport only to find my suitcase was lost and my 3 weeks worth of clothes and supplies gone. All I had left was my wallet and carry ons. Upon leaving the airport I was mugged. FML
Today, I fell asleep with my luggage at a bus terminal. Upon waking up, I found that someone had opened my bags and stolen all my socks. FML
Today, I was heading out for my flight to Australia. I'd put a padlock on my luggage to keep my wallet and passport safe, only to realize way too late that I'd left the key at home. I couldn't get at my passport and ended up missing my flight and my whole vacation along with it. FML
Today, I was the only passenger on a completely booked flight to have all their luggage left behind in another country. FML
Today, my roommate asked me for help finding her wallet because it’s been lost for days. I helped a bit, but it never turned up. I left to go to my boyfriend’s house as I'd planned. Guess whose wallet I found laying on the ground next to his night-stand? And why it was there… FML
Today, I was helping my friend pack her carry on for her vacation. I drove her to the airport, and after her plane took off, I noticed I put my cell phone in her purse. Her vacation is 2 months long. FML
Today, my fiancé forgot his wallet. He realized this once we were 5 hours away from home, before checking into a hotel, that had reservations under his name. FML
Today, my purse was stolen. Too bad it had all of my money and my passport. My flight is tomorrow, and the embassy is closed until Monday. Guess who gets to stay in a foreign country with no money and no identification for the next three days. FML
Today, I was proud of myself for remembering my wallet, keys and phone before leaving for the airport. I got all the way to security before realizing I’d left my passport on the kitchen table, right next to the travel mug I also forgot to bring. FML
Today, after getting booked off work for being sick, I go to work anyway. On the way home, I stop by a colleagues fairwell, being the paranoid type of guy I make sure my car is locked about 3-4 times and head in. Later I get home to find my laptop has been stolen from my boot with my medication. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You lost a bag, he lost his stuff. I can imagine it now... "Today I lost my backpack full of sentimental memorabilia and personal stuff. My 'friend' was sympathetic until he realized it was his Wal-Mart bag that he lent to me. He got all pissy about it and blames me about his backpack, FML."

#20 yup, I agree.

13. the airport can't compensate you if you got it stolen in the airport. it's only when the airlines lose your bags is when they pay you for it.

lol @ #23 for making fun of #13 and not knowing that 'recompense' is a real word. rec·om·pense [rek-uh m-pens] -verb (used with object) 1. to repay; remunerate; reward, as for service, aid, etc.

That's what I was thinking. How is OP's life ******?
kimbaheartsyou 0
Exactly. Those packs that people use to go backpacking can cost $500. Not to mention most people get properly fitted for one that they can haul around for months on end.
samanthaaarose 0
if that is the case, op, then I say YDI for lending your friend something so expensive. everytime you lend something out, you run the risk of it getting damaged. you have to be prepared for that. not to mention the fact that your friend lost EVERYTHING he had, and you lost just the backpack (expensive or not). and yet he's not the one typing the FML.

He never went overseas. This was all part of an elaborate scheme to steal your backpack.
FFML_314 12
Reminds me of the time I made that elaborate scheme to steal this guys virginity. BUT, that's a whole other story. *Walks away whistling*
knibbsy 4
An elaborate plan to steal a guys virginity, eh? Let me guess - you said "Do me." No, not it? Oh, that's right. You said "You know if you put that in here, you will make millions in the next two minutes!" to which he replied "Really?! I'll finally be able to buy that Ferrari I've always wanted!" Two and a half minutes later, he said "Where is the cash?" and your reply was "I wasn't talking about money..."
FFML_314 12
No, I just convinced him that his sperm was made of gold.
knibbsy 4
Hmm...I always thought gold came in pots, not boxes. At least I know what to look for next time I see a rainbow.
FFML_314 12
Boxes?
knibbsy 4
I honestly can't believe you've gone your whole life without hearing that term; it's extremely common. Box is another word for ******. Now please read my comment again and tell me how full of win it is.
justinj21496 0
I've never heard anyone use that term before
knibbsy 4
I'm still waiting, FFML.
FFML_314 12
For?
knibbsy 4
You to jubilantly thank me and say how amazing it feels to know another meaning of box, and to commend me on such a witty comment. Hell, I might even take canned laughter.
FFML_314 12
It takes a privileged person to get a laugh out of me. :] I applaud your witty comment though.
