Today, I wanted to impress my girlfriend with a cool fire breathing trick I learned online, and ended up burning half her room. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was showing my 4 year old some of my fire magic tricks. I ended up getting 2nd degree burns on my left hand and burnt off half of her hair. FML
Today, my girlfriend tried to clean out the fireplace with a vacuum cleaner, she sucked up a bunch of embers which set the vacuum on fire. After a crying for a bit, she went back to finish cleaning up only to find that some embers she dumped in a bucket melted through and set part of the carpet on fire. FML
Today, my teenage daughter nearly burned down our house because she wanted to take "artsy" pictures with a lighter for Instagram. FML
Today, I invited my girlfriend to come over, telling her I had a surprise. I filled the bathtub and lit a lot of candles to be romantic. She gets here, and we start doing our thing. Until we smell something burning. It was my hair. I now have a bald spot on the back of my head. FML
Today, my girlfriend threw boiling water at me to get me off my phone. It worked, but now I'm burned. FML
Today, to impress my date with dinner, I spent hours prepping and cooking. Just as I was about to serve her, I realized I'd left the stove on and my kitchen was on fire. As the fire trucks arrived and my date looked on in horror, I couldn't help but think, "My cooking is so hot it literally set the house on fire." FML
Today, my boss told me to not burn the place down while she was outside. When she came back inside, I accidentally started a fire. FML
Today, I decided to light a candle in my room. Since fire intrigues me, I put an old brochure into it. Paper burns fast, and now my carpet has a big, black burn mark. FML
Today, I went over to this girl's house that I really like. I was planning on cooking her dinner. In the process, the grease in the pan got too hot and caught fire. We ended up having to call the fire department. FML
Today, my daughter somehow got a hold of the lighter we keep on top of the fridge. I found this out when she snuck up behind me and thought it would be fun to set my hair on fire. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

you don't do a trick like this inside a house glad she's pressing charges

This is why you don't learn FIRE tricks from videos online that could easily be doctored. Although you probably need one now. Doesn't it take YEARS of practice for someone to learn this kind of trick in the real world?

you're a dumbass. leave that kind of stuff to the people who aren't total idiots.

Do you mean she's suing you for the damages? Pressing charges means she wants you locked up for committing a crime. You weren't being an arsonist; you were just being a careless idiot. If they locked up people for being idiots, we couldn't build enough prisons to keep them.

Couldn't the GF do both? Sue for damages and press charges for vandalism or something like that. Just guessing, Im no law expert.

She could do both, but also, if she had insurance, the insurance company will most likely sue him or his insurance company (do they cover damage your idiot self does at someone else's place??) for damages, whether she wants to or not. They gotta get their money back for someone who's not their client being a moron.

Cool trick, but YDI for doing it in a completely inappropriate location.

You can't press charges when nobody committed a crime. Sadly, stupidity is not a crime. Furthermore, neither is posting fake FML's.

The How-To on fire breathing really needed a warning on it to tell you to try it outside??!?You deserve to have charges pressed against you, moron.

That bitch!!! How could she expect you to be accountable for your own actions? It's called growing up cowboy and it sounds like you need a heaping helping. Have your nuts dropped yet? Because playing with fire indoors should be something a 10 year-old should know without being told.

it's a shame you didn't **** it up and burn yourself instead. your gene pool needs chlorine in it.
