Today, I managed to accidentally drop an entire cake on my laptop's keyboard. There's so much frosting stuck under the keys, I have no idea how I'm going to clean it out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 woke up to find that my cat had barfed all over my laptop's keyboard and screen, filling each nook and cranny of the stuff. As if that wasn't bad enough, when I went to make coffee to deal with the stress, I found that I was out of coffee. FML
Today, my coworker spilled sticky fruit glaze all over my cake display cake and left it overnight uncleaned. The same display case I spent 2 hours cleaning the day before. FML
Today, I was setting up my keyboard when the stand came loose. The keyboard started to fall, so I tried to save it, held it up in the air, and ended up falling off the stool onto the floor. I’ll feel that tomorrow, but at least the keyboard survived. FML
Today, I found out that you can ruin a $500 computer with a few stray drops of 100% acetone nail polish remover on the keyboard. FML
Today, while working on my laptop, I accidentally spilled a glass of water. I quickly moved my laptop out of the way of the oncoming stream. It fell on the floor and broke. FML
Today, I tried to clean my keyboard by turning it upside down and shaking it. Something important apparently fell out, because now the “E” key only works if I smack it hard enough to look like I’m typing angry emails. My coworkers are concerned. FML
Today, I spilled some milk on my laptop. I was pretty sure it would be fine as it was only a bit of milk. While cleaning the residue, I knocked a whole bucket of water into the insides of the laptop. RIP Macbook. FML
Today, I sat down at my computer for the first time in a week, and discovered that my cat had thrown up all over my keyboard. I needed to write up an important document but the chunks were stuck down in the keys, effectively locking it up and making it useless. FML
Today, I baked a cake. After feeding it to my entire family, I opened the stove, planning to temporarily store the cake inside. I then noticed a mouse, burnt to a crisp. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I've heard of Sticky Keys, but this one takes the cake.

It's called removing the keys and wiping the frosting off -_- and replacements aren't expensive depending on what kind of keyboard it is.

get a new keyboard, then sell your computer

Place it is a bag of rice. The Asians will turn up and fix it.

I've done that before... you have to dunk it in water

You can run it through a dishwasher so long as you let it completely dry out over a couple of days. If you turn it on before it's dry, it will short out and be ruined

Oh lol don't put your laptop through the dw. Thought you said keyboard.

What you can do is take out the keyboard and wash it with water and then let it dry COMPLETELY by submerging it in rice for about two to three days to completely remove all water then put the keyboard back in. Hope I could help :)

I'm wondering how you managed to drop an entire cake on the laptop. Were you trying to eat it all? Were you moving carrying it somewhere else and the laptop was in the path? Either way, that sucks. Hopefully some of the suggestions in these comments will help you out.

Who holds cake above their keyboard?
