Today, I left the iron and ironing board in my room. While I was at school, my mom decided to do some ironing, and did it in my room for convenience. The iron needed water, so she took a water bottle from my dresser and poured it in. It was my secret vodka stash, and the iron caught on fire. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom was in the kitchen when her shirt caught on fire. Acting quickly, I poured my glass of water on her. Instead of thanking me, she yelled at me for making a mess. FML
Today, while ironing some shirts, my cat decided to hop up and investigate. To prevent him from burning himself, I instinctively moved the iron away and placed it flat on my other hand. FML
Today, I tried to make breakfast. I had everything cooking on the stove when I reached to turn on the faucet, only to find out that the head of the faucet was up the sleeve of my robe. After drying off, I went to serve my boyfriend his plate, but when I returned, the stove had caught fire. FML
Today, I decided to be healthy and drink a tall glass of water whilst doing my assignment that is due in three days. I managed to spill the entire glass over my laptop. I flipped it over and used a hairdryer to dry it off. While doing that, I managed to melt my keyboard. FML
Today, I was using my new curling iron to curl my hair. I was sitting down. Suddenly I dropped the iron and, as a reflex, I caught it between my bare thighs. 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, I was refilling my lighter. Afterwards, I gave it a test light. I must've spilled some fluid because my thumb caught on fire. FML
Today, I was pouring boiling water into a cup, and I accidentally spilled it all over my hand. My mother responded by slapping me for getting water everywhere. My hand is scorched red, but thanks, I love you too, mother. FML
Today, I was sleeping in my apartment when I woke up to the smell of smoke. Alarmed, I ran out to the kitchen to find my roommates trying to put out a fire on the stove. As soon as they saw me, they ran for it, informing me that it was my problem now. They used my good frying pan. FML
Today, I spent hours cleaning the kitchen that my slob roommates always neglect. I scrubbed the floor, emptied the fridge, washed all the dishes, etc. When I was done, I was thirsty so I got myself a soda. I opened the can, and it exploded and sprayed everything I had just washed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Sorry to be the one to say it out loud but your mother it's freaking stupid! First that she should stick to the simple and get some fresh water, and second that she should've smelled that weird water that was kinda hidden to see if it wasn't something else like some cleanning stuff... Damn, #77 too big for a simple comment.. O.O

77 has clearly never been a teenager trying to hide alcohol from their parents. Dude, I was a teenager living at home just a year ago, so were my friends, and none of us would ever dare leave a water bottle with vodka out on the dresser-just because it didn't look suspicious doesn't mean that you would take the risk of a parent taking a sip of it or something along those lines. I always hid everything, suspicious looking or not, for the simple fact that it would be way too scary and induce paranoia if I were to just leave it out in the open. That is a normal thing if you are trying to hide something. Also, I drink a lot of vodka and if you open it within a foot of your face, it can usually be smelled. I've drank everything from Fleischman's to Grey Goose and, yes, Goose and other vodka of that caliber smells less pungent, but there is still a smell strong enough to smell when you're within a foot of it. This isn't necessarily fake, but it definitely is a you deserve it because you should always take care to hide things-or at least not leave it sitting out on your dresser.

lol at Epic fail of OP. ~~~ #85, don't drink before you're of the legal age. F***ing idiot. What's so great about alcohol? It makes you a total prick, and it's one of the most selfish things you can do besides smoking. Drinking just ***** up other people's lives, or ends them. And smoking just kills a little bit of everyone around you. Nice job 85. F***nut.

This is Bullshit.. How do you not know the difference between vodka and water? Vodka has a strong smell and she had to smell it when she was pouring it into the iron. I say this is BS.

BS, 80 proof is 40% and will not ignite. Everclear, on the other hand...
