Today, I had just finished re-completing all my assignments because I had lost my USB last week. I reached into my pocket for gum, instead I found the USB that I had apparently lost. I spent my weekend alone rather than spending time with my friends. I don't have another weekend off for a month. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I have a busy week scheduled at work, so I took my file home to smash out some reports. Naturally I did not do any work at home and then I also forgot to take the file back to work the next day. Instead of saving time, I wasted an hour driving home to collect it. FML
Today, after meeting a girl for the first time and having sex with her, I found not only my wallet missing but also the 128 GB pen drive that had my project I've been working on for 6 months on it. I have to give the presentation in 3 days. FML
Today, I finally finished typing up a story I had been working on for about 7 months, saved it on my computer and left to hang with friends. Came home later to find my dad had sold my laptop in order to pay his phone bill. My hard work is now gone. FML
Today, after taking my clothes out of the washer, I noticed at the very bottom of the washer my boyfriend's USB stick I found a couple of days ago. The USB stick contains his English essay, and his novel he has been working on for almost six months. FML
Today, what did I get after a long, tiring week? A long, depressing weekend. FML
Today, I was working at the Soup Kitchen handing out special christmas dinners to the homeless. At the end of the day I collected my things and went home. It was only then I discovered that my wallet, phone, pager and (for some reason) my glasses has been stolen. FML
Today, I noticed that my weekend hobby is crying. I live in a city where I don't have a single friend or relative. FML
Today, I ran 5 miles to catch the bus I take to university after missing my connection. When I got to the bus stop, I realized I had left my U-Pass on my desk at home. On top of the assignment that was due. FML
Today, after I took off a week from work to grieve the loss of my girlfriend, who was very sick and passed due to natural causes, my paycheck suffered because of that and last night, to avoid going back to hard drugs, I went out to the clubs where I blew the only 250 bucks I had on strippers and drinks. Now I have 0 bucks for rent. FML
Today, I found out my dad got Covid after spending the weekend at home. All my classes have me doing final projects, and my dorm's internet is a dumpster fire. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why would you keep gum in your pocket? It will get all hot and soggy. Don't put things like that in your pocket. Especially not a USB.

Because it's where sticky things belong.

A USB will not get hot and soggy OP. Keep it in there.

I learned my lesson the hard way, a long time ago, not to put gum or anything in my pockets. They end up in the washing machine more times than not.

FFML YDI for not checking all your pockets before a wash =) and OP YDI for not checking pockets too. Most obvious placefor little things like that.

I really don't see a problem with having gum or a USB stick in your pocket... I mean what's wrong with it?

How was it that you knew the gum was there and not the USB? I can usually feel man just by patting my pocket. This is just weird. You put a pack of gum in there without feeling the USB, worked until you were done without feeling it, and didn't feel it when you put on your pants, either? I'm gonna say FYL because you must be reallyyyy slow. And the first place you should look is your pants if you take it with you everywhere.

Same here. I have everything in my USB. My laptop's practically empty, really. I go crazy when I take it out and forget where it is.

Sorry OP. It's almost always in the last place you look.
happy_martin 5
almost always? usually when I find something I stop looking. do you sometimes continue?
FFML_314 12
I hate when people say that! Of course it's in the last place you look. Who would continue looking for something that they've already found.

USB: 1. Universal Serial Bus. (Acronym) 2. Colloquial expression for a flash drive using the Universal Serial Bus connection. (Slang) 3. U Stupid B****. Another way to refer to OP. (synonym)

Brilliant. The perils of using the online urban dictionary instead of wikipaedia.

Don't you keep all your documents on your computer? Or do you like type it up, save it on your USB and not on your computer? Pretty silly if you ask me!

22. Like you said. Any idiot saves it to the computer and then copies it to the thumb drive. You do a bunch of work and only save one copy to an easily lost device?

It's not always that simple! For my masters degree, I'm taking this class called crime mapping and it uses this special software that is only available in two computer rooms. It's a $1000 software and I have to save my stuff on a USB because we can't save stuff on the computers in there. I would be screwed if I lost my USB, since all of my work is saved on it!
