Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I received a package from Amazon that was supposed to contain the book I needed for my open book final exam tonight. They must have mixed up my order, because the box contained a large pink dildo. I think the universe just told me to get fucked. FML

Insane parents
Today, I was wondering why the new book series I'd ordered hadn’t arrived. I ordered new books because my mom constantly bitched at me about being on the internet too often. She took my laptop away to "teach me a lesson". Only I need my laptop to get the confirmation number to track my books. FML

Today, I bought a book by a #1 bestselling author, hoping it would distract me from having my manuscript rejected, as well as learn what made their book so successful. Now I realize I need to say stuff like, "I wish I had great boobs (hehe... boobs)" to get my works published. FML

Today, I received a package that I thought contained a textbook for law school, for which I paid $130 used. Instead, I received a paperback novel titled "The Nosy Neighbor" by Fern Michaels. My semester starts next week. FML

Small business woes
Today, I run a small online shop and I got an order from a new customer. I packed everything, added a handwritten thank-you note… and mixed up the shipping label with another package. One customer got handmade candles, the other got a box of unrelated items and a note saying, “Hope this smells amazing.” FML

Did you mean to send this to the vendor and got confused about what website you were posting on? The other day I received a shirt in the wrong size, so I guess FML too?

Use this as an opportunity to learn about something new! And while I'm not sure why you needed a book about makeup, online tutorials and going out to get actual makeup to practice with are usually better options than just reading about it, unless that's not what you wanted the book for 🤷🏽♀️

If this is the biggest FML of your life, I'm terrified to think of how you'd react to a real problem.

Um ... so send it back and ask for a refund. It's really not that hard.
