Today, I spent the whole day doing a 500 piece puzzle. The last piece didn't fit. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Justifiable anger
Today, I completed a jigsaw puzzle. Almost. You see, there's a problem: One of the pieces is an exact duplicate of another, and the actual missing piece is… gone. So there's one empty space and one piece that doesn't fit. Words cannot describe how irrationally angry this makes me. FML
So frustrating!
Today, I bought a massive new puzzle to take my mind off of things. Hours later, I realized there was a missing piece. Frustrated, I looked everywhere for it, only to discover it was stuck to the bottom of my shoe, and I'd been walking around with it all day. FML
Today, I spent hours putting together a beautifully intricate jigsaw to give to my grandmother, who likes to frame them and hang them on her wall. Just as I was about to finish it, I discovered my dog chewing the last piece. FML
Today, while babysitting I decided to play with a children's puzzle to pass the time. Fifteen minutes in I gave up. The kid then came over and put it together in less than five. There were only ten pieces. FML
Damn you, Ikea!
Today, I attempted to assemble a piece of furniture that claimed to be "easy to build in minutes." Four hours and multiple arguments later, I realized I had misread the instructions, and half the parts were upside down. I'm pretty sure the furniture won this round. FML
Today, I finally got a package for some pieces that my model kit was missing after I had contacted customer services about the problem. The package was still missing a piece. FML
FINNBY boss
Today, I spent two hours building an IKEA bookshelf. When I was finished, I realized it was inside-out. There was no way to fix it without completely taking it apart again. FML
Today, I chipped a tooth trying to solve a Rubik's Cube. FML
Wonky birthday!
Today, halfway through assembling a toy kitchen for a birthday, I realized the instructions made no sense and half the screws looked identical. I still somehow finished it and felt triumphant until the kid opened the oven door, the whole thing tipped sideways, and I had to spend the rest of the party holding it together with one hand. FML
Today, I tried to put together some flat-pack furniture. I wound up in my underpants, screaming stuff like, "Fuck you, fucking Ikea bastard" at pieces of confusing plywood. FML

I would have probably gone back to the store and demand the last puzzle piece because my OCD wouldn't be able to handle it.

That puzzle piece is like people, just because it completes the picture/image, doesn't mean it will all fit in or together

Lol ouch yeah I was helping my mom and grandmothers with theirs we got to last three pieces and none fit. And pretty certain we were missing a piece. It sucked it was one of those big portrait ones that are very nice.

I would probably have flipped the table over.

Yea from my experience with many a puzzle, that's not how this works. They don't simply not fit in the end. You just screwed up somewhere probably with one or two pieces.... Also 500 is EASY talk about bad when it's several thousand piece 3D puzzle with bent cardboard supports.... And all the pieces look almost identical, Stupid Taj Mahal.
