Today, I scratched a lottery ticket I had gotten for my birthday and won $10,000. In celebration, I jumped up and raised my hands directly into a ceiling fan. Oh, and it was a fake ticket. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got a scratcher lottery ticket, scratched it in the store, and won $5,000! I screamed and danced around. The guy next to me shoved me over, yanked the ticket from my hands, and tore ass out the door. The cops couldn't find him. FML
Today, behind a cabinet, I found a scratch-off lottery ticket I hadn't scratched yet. After scratching it off, I realized it's a $2,500 winner. The lottery commission won't accept it because they stopped using that game 2 years ago. FML
Today, I won 10,555 dollars on scratch cards! My sister got me to do a happy dance and filmed it. The video is on facebook and the tickets were fake. FML
Today, I won $5000 dollars from a lottery ticket and tried giving the man next to me a high five. He had no hands. FML
Today, I drove 3 hours to the Capitol and back to cash my winning scratch ticket of $2000. When I got there, it was pointed out to me that it wasn't in fact a winning ticket. I'd already planned a weekend vacation at an adventure park the next state over. I’m flat broke and rent is due. FML
Today, to prove a point to my brother that playing the lotto isn't a sure thing. I got a $10 scratcher. Thinking I'd get nothing or maybe just another scratcher, I ended up winning a free scratcher plus $100. The second scratcher I got an additional $50. Now he's even more confident he'll win every time. FML
Today, I went to get a scratch off lottery ticket, and the dude in front of me got the same one I was going to get. He won 500 dollars. I got 2 bucks. FML
Today, while buying lottery tickets, I mixed up "jackpot" and "scratch off" and asked for "$10 worth of jackoffs." FML
Today, I won a big raffle. However, my name is so ridiculous-sounding that they thought someone was playing a prank, and pulled a different ticket. I was too embarrassed to say anything. FML
Today, I won the lottery. My ex-girlfriend has the ticket. I just broke up with her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I don't see how this is an FML. OP got pranked... and there wasn't even any public humiliation involved... and then OP got whacked by a ceiling fan... okay that hurts for 5 minutes, seriously. People are way too ******* whiny i swear

msbraindamage this site is for people to post... you know what nevermind. I'm so sick of explaining to idiots.
MsBrainDamage 0
Hm, actually I'm fully aware of the purpose of this site; something shitty happens to someone, they come back here and say "This and this happened! FML!!!" Many of the FMLs belong here, but I really don't see how this would cause someone to say, "**** my LIFE!!!" Maybe their life is easygoing and great and something like this, (that I consider minor) really does "**** up their life." Either way, it's my opinion that this isn't FML-worthy, and guess what? That's the other purpose of this site. In other words, you sir, are the idiot.

104, do you know how much this could have affected the OP? you have absolutely no idea if this person broke their fingers, and happens to be a pianist or something similar. so don't be so quick to judge if you have little or no background knowledge please:)

#106 - It's only a ceiling fan. It is NOT going to break bones. If the OP was a pianist, they would have stated it.

Fans cannot break bones, even on high speed. Industrial fans can, though.

the tiniest things in life are normally the most important things in life for us poor and depressed people. Finding out it's a fake lottery ticket is pretty bad...then getting hit by the ceiling fan is bad too! Overall, if you got nothing nice to say don't say it at all! No one wants to hear your $h!t! thats why this world is the way it is cuz we have to many people just like you!!!!! Your just another piece of the dust from the rest of the b!tch3$ in this world...you j***@$$

I'm gonna have to disagree with you. I busted my head open on a ceiling fan and had to have that two inch thick gash glued back. That definitely hurt more than five minutes.

I wish I could jump up and reach a ceiling fan. OP must be tall.

I'm 6 feet tall, but I didn't grow tell I was like 17 years old. Give yourself some time before you complain.
bishhitsandii 3
Most girls stop growing at an earlier age. I've been 5'7" since I was about fourteen.
FYLDeep 26
You would have been significantly taller than the 14 year old version of me. I was maybe 5'4''.
CitrusGirl 0
I'm 17, and 5'1" I haven't grown since I was 13. I'm a girl so I'm pretty sure I'm done.
FYLDeep 26
I guess so. 13 still seems pretty young to be completely done growing though. I'm glad I wasn't done growing at 13 at least.

Ceiling fans aren't going to do any real damage.

I agree @119 most ceiling fans aren't gonna hurt you unless somehow you modify it and make the blades spin fast enough to do some serious damage

I tricked my step mom with one of those fake lottery tickets. She jumped out of the car and ran inside the gas station screaming like a lunatic. The lady in the gas station took twenty minutes to convince her the ticket wasn't real. :) Fake lottery tickets are good pranks for gullible people.

Loving god is like loving a step parent. You never really feel any love back. ( I know this is random, but your comment made me remember this. I don't know wher I got this from though...)
