Today, I left on a 2 month trip. I was in a hurry to pack so I wouldn't miss my plane. There were 2 piles of clothes on my bed. One pile was clothes that didn't fit to take to a thrift store, one was to take with me. Guess which one I brought? FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I put all my clothes into two piles. One pile had clothes I usually wear, the other clothes I wanted to donate. When I was done, I put the piles into two jumbo trash bags. I came back a bit later and they both were gone. My mom donated both bags. I have no clothes. 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, I packed all my clothes in a black garbage bag, so I could easily move them to my new house. When I came back outside to load it into my car, the bag was missing, and all I could see was a garbage truck driving away with the week's trash. FML
Today, I spent my entire paycheck on a new summer wardrobe. I then left my shopping bags on the train. FML
Today, I was sitting in the airport, watching the baggage handlers load the plane I was about to get on. They were being really rough with it, one bag came open and all the clothes spilled out onto the tarmac. The clothes looked familiar. They were mine. FML
Today, I went to do my laundry. Having no laundry bag, I put clothes in a suitcase and headed to the basement. When my roommate saw me, she burst into tears with happiness. FML
Today, I flew across country to college. My luggage did not. FML
Today, I found out where a few of my favorite outfits went. My mother had taken them out of my closet, wrapped them, and given them to my cousin as a gift. FML
Today, I got my stuff together before leaving to take the bus: cigarettes, newspaper, mobile phone and the trash. I took me at least 5 minutes in the bus to realize that I was travelling with the trash on my knees. FML
Today, I went to a thrift store and found heaps of clothes that I loved that fit me perfectly. Then I found a special distinctive dress. My dress. My dad had thrown away heaps of my clothes and I had to buy them all back. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Not sure how u could do that. I always make a list and double check that I have everything when I pack. Obviously not everyone makes a list but you'd think you would at least look at what u put in your suitcase...

YDI, you would obviously know which one to take, if you knew what clothes you didn't need durrhh? anyways these FMLS are so similar. i saw the saying "guess which one i pick/choose/took/whatever" like 10 thousand times and there always repeats, sorry to be rude, but like the site is going downhill with all these repeats.

People like you make this site go downhill. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to be an asshole and diss the site, get off here if you don't like it. It's simple fuckface.

Actually kaaz, it's people like you who are screwing this site over. People who needlessly attack either the OP or other commenters with obscenities and insults. #41 was simply stating an opinion! You don't have to agree with it but there's no reason to be that rude. You obviously have unresolved issues and are forced to find release by calling strangers on the internet "asshole" and "fuckface".

Well, good reason to buy a lot of new clothes, aye?

You're supposed to pack DAYS in advance for a trip that long! Well, maybe not days, but not hours before you leave, either.

I can see at least two points where you screwed yourself over. Don't play these kinds of games with yourself--you won't win.

Who in their right mind waits till the very last possible minute to pack for a 2 month trip? Right before you have to leave to get on the plane... righttt. And when were you going to take the pile of clothes to the thrift store? When you got back 2 months later? You were going to leave a pile of clothes on your bed for 2 months? Nothing about this adds up!
