Today, I noticed my shower drain wasn't draining well. I cleaned it out, thinking it was just a rat's nest of hair. Wrong. It was an actual dead rat. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my water wouldn't go down my shower drain. Confused, I stuck a metal stick expecting hair, but instead stabbed and pulled up a rat that was dead in my drain. FML
Today, I woke up and went into the bathroom and noticed a dark mass in the toilet. Thinking someone took a dump and didn't flush, I approached the toilet ready to dispose of it. That's when I noticed its whiskers and ears. It was a rat, and it was alive. FML
Today, I discovered that the rancid stench in my bathroom was a decaying carcass of a mouse in my toilet tank. FML
Today, I found out the reason my clothes have been smelling a little funny isn't because I sweat heavily, it's because of the dead rat in the back of my dryer. FML
Today, I finally found out what the horrible smell at work was. A rat had decided to make its home in our emergency exit sign and had been fried by the electricity. I now have to fix this. Hello scorched dead rat. FML
Today, I discovered the hard way that all the scare stories I'd heard about rats getting into pipes and finding their way into your toilet are, in fact, true. FML
Today, I discovered why there was such a horrible stench in my bedroom. My cat had a secret stash of shit under my dresser. Along with the carcass of a rat. FML
Today, our rodent problem was taken care of. I discovered this when my cat projectile-vomited a soggy, death-scented wad of dark fur and tiny organs onto the couch. FML
Today, the water in my shower wouldn't drain so I used a snake to unclog it. I pulled almost a full foot of nasty hair and gunk out of the drain. I just moved in, and the previous owner was an elderly woman. I just pulled a foot of old lady pubes out of my drain. FML
Today, I noticed that my new shampoo had an unfamiliar pink color to it. After some investigation, I found a dead mouse that had apparently cut itself on the bottle pump. I've been washing my hair with mouse blood. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That one with the raving old lunatic demanding the freedom of slaves? He parted the red soup too, right?

I don't understand why you're being thumbed down? FML is a strange place.

We suddenly started having crappy water pressure a while back and investigated to find that the pieces of a long since dead spider (a HUGE spider) were the cause of the blockage...

Yeah my first visit to Australia there was a tarantula-asaurus in the kitchen sitting in the sink! Imagine Four people screaming in sync together then it jumped to the wall causing us to almost die tripping over each other.

Well, look on the bright side, OP - at least you didn't grab a rat that was alive! :P

Time to call the exterminator and plumber .. Maybe not in that order

The rat is dead. You no longer need an exterminator.

Good thing it's in the shower, though. If I saw something like that, a shower is exactly what I'd need.

Poor rat drowned in water that washed your butt. FML for the rat

Rats are actually really difficult to drown, or even kill in general. My biology teach fed a rat to his python and the rat chewed its way out and killed the python.

It's like if Chuck Norris was a rat.

That's ******* terrifying

"I heard you got eaten by a snake." "Yeah, but after several hours of unbearable agony, the snake finally died."

Hard to believe unless said rat was directly under the shower grate, and in that case how do you let your shower get that bad?

And here I thought finding a spider was the worse that could happen....

Good thing it wasn't a snake that was still alive.
