Today, I was babysitting my nephew. He was watching the episode where Spongebob smashes his guitar while playing. I walk into the kitchen to make him a snack, and I hear a loud crash... My nephew smashing my brand new guitar to be like Spongebob. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was babysitting my niece and let her watch cartoons on YouTube while I cooked dinner. She screamed as I was cutting up carrots and I cut myself. She had turned on an episode of Happy Tree Friends and was now crying and wouldn't stop. My brother thumped me for not watching her. I now have a cut hand and black eye. FML
Today, I was babysitting my younger brother while my parents were away. I turned my back on my brother for one minute and then I heard a huge crash from their room. He had somehow destroyed a family heirloom and 200 year-old clock. FML
Today, my older brother puked in the sound hole of my sister's guitar. He blamed it on me, and in revenge my sister beat me with the guitar. FML
Today, I was babysitting my nephew. He was acting up, so instead of spanking him, I put him in the corner for timeout. He screamed and thrashed and kicked the walls so hard my neighbors called the police. My sister wasn’t answering her phone, and I had to explain why a 7-year-old was acting like that. FML
Today, I was babysitting. I was sitting on the sofa when I felt that I need to ajust my sitting arangment. After moving, I felt a small toy snap under me. The little boy said it was fine. One hour later he snuck up on me and beat me with an umbrella for breaking his toy. FML
Today, my 3 year old nephew was sitting on my knee at the computer. He was annoying me as he kept on pressing all the buttons. To scare him off I did a creepy voice in his ear that makes him cry. He turned round and broke my nose. FML
Today, my sister was playing a rock star in a play. When she got home, she told me she used one of my old guitars, because I told her it was ok. I said she could take one to practice on, not destroy on stage. FML
Today, my little brother watched an old video of The Who, who are know for smashing up their guitars and such. He decided it would be cool to try it with mine. That guitar was worth over $3000. FML
Today, I had to explain to my little sister that not all guitars are supposed to have a hole in them, that when I was talking about "breaking it in" I didn't mean I'd smash a hole in it, and that she shouldn't have taken a hammer to my expensive new guitar. FML
Today, I thought babysitting my nephew would be easy. WRONG. He put his wet teddy on the space heater to dry, and caused a fire. While I was putting the fire out, he decided to wash his burnt teddy in the sink, which blocked the plug and flooded my kitchen. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

sue sponge bob. It is every patriotic American's duty to sue whoever they can, whenever they can, for whatever reason they can think of.

OP by no means deserved it, but I vote OP actually babysit instead of using television as a crutch.

He was watching spongebob with the nephew. He only left the room to make the kid a sandwich. That's part of the job, guy. If the kid's big enough to smash a guitar, he's old enough to be left one room away while you make him a sandwich.

Greatest show ever? Either you're 5 or you smoke way too much weed. OP, I hope you told your aunt and/or uncle to tan his hide til he couldn't sit.

Is it sad I knew what episode it was ( the camping episode ) right off the bat?

Nope, I did too. I immediately started singing, "C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song."

YDI for 2 reasons: I guess you weren't watching him very closely. AND you used the phrase "the episode where", meaning you know it well.

you're a heartless person, youthink. like when you said that guy didnt care even though he drove his gf to the hospital. now you're saying that watching spongebob is a bad thing. I cant wait to see what you say next

The OP was sitting there with his nephew. We don't know who picked the channel and as far as we know, this is the only episode he's seen, but I think anyone who has heard of the show can all assume that Spongebob isn't smashing guitars all that often. He was merely pointing out the part of the episode that relates to this anecdote.

"that episode where..." is just explaining the background and the reason behind the story. and is it really that bad to let a kid watch tv for 3 minutes? so you can feed him?

Not to mention Op was watching tv with the nephew, he left to make a sandwich after that part in the show, he doesn't have to watch the show all the time to know what happened 5 minutes ago.

You left a brand new guitar unattended around someone that young? YDI.

How do you know it was in the room? He couldve got up and smashed it in another room. And I think he thought he'd know not too. If he can pick up and smash a guitar then he's old enough to know not to.

That was my thought exactly. You can't leave anything around children. If it's important to you, they'll destroy it. They have an extra sense for these things.

The C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E-S-O-N-G song!~ "youthink", what's wrong with someone like Spongebob?

Do people on this site keep guitars in reach of little kids all the time? Geeze, buy some wall hangers or a locked case or something.
Rejectofsociety9 0
Seriously? That isn't exactly common for people to do, is it? Most people just leave their guitars in their rooms, in the case or such. You don't tend to assume "Oh, shit, my nephew's going to be here one day when I'm babysitting, and act like a prat! Best hang it on the wall 8D" ...idiot.
alex_vik 1
Uh, my guitars are always on their wallhangers, because A: They make great decorations. B: It's nice and safe from being accidentally bumped. And my friend keeps his Gibson Les Paul in a locked case all the time when he's not playing it. But we're used to protecting our instruments, so I guess it's not common sense if you don't care if it gets ruined or not.

I can recite almost every episode of Spongebob just because my niece watches it 24/7. Fortunately if she ever feels the need to smash a guitar, she has her own - I would probably do something illegal if she smashed mine.
