Today, I was eating lunch, and accidentally got ketchup on the sofa, so I hastily doused it with stain remover. The ketchup is now no longer there; however there is a larger stain in its place. I stained the sofa with stain remover. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I'm using mold and mildew stain remover on my mattress, all because I threw up on it drunk, and was to lazy to clean it up when it happened. FML
Today, I dyed my hair. It was all going well, until I forgot I had a head full of product and scratched an itch. I didn't realise my mistake until later, and now have to replace my six-month old sofa because it has a huge stain that alternates from purple to bleach. FML
Today, despite trying to lose weight for months and making progress, I went out to lunch with coworkers and ended up eating a huge burger and fries. When I got back to the office, I noticed that I'd spilled ketchup all over my shirt. Now I not only feel guilty about the food I ate but I also look like a slob. FML
Today, my sister and I got into a fight. I came home to find everything in my room covered in ketchup. FML
Today, I went on a date. I went to the bathroom for five minutes and returned to find my date had not only left, but poured ketchup all over our food to ruin it. FML
Today, while I was trying to put my high fluoride toothpaste on my toothbrush, I miscalculated the pressure and ended up squirting a massive glob all over the bathroom cabinet and a rug that was on the floor. My stepmom says if we can't get the bleach stain out of the brown rug, I'm going to have to replace it. FML
Today, I remembered my mom got her carpet cleaned and to be careful while she was at work. To be nice, I vacuumed the whole house. Feeling proud of myself, I got a drink and went upstairs. I tripped and spilled red Kool-Aid all over the floor. FML
Today, while correcting essays, I spilled ketchup on a student's paper. I managed to successfully turn it into a happy smiley face but when proudly looking at the result, noticed it was right next to the big "F" that I had graded it. FML
Today, I spilled vanilla yogurt on my pants while eating breakfast, but I forgot to clean it up. It left a very conspicuous white stain on my pants, that was there the entire day. I only noticed it when I looked in the mirror after getting home. FML
Today, I had to clean my house to hide the evidence of the party I threw last night. I attempted to clean the puke stain on my carpet while still drunk. I didn't realize until this morning that the All Purpose cleaner I used was actually All Purpose Adhesive. The evidence is now glued to my carpet. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Could it be that now that spot is actually just cleaner than the rest of the couch now?

Ironic... Try getting a couch cover if it really bothers you.

That sucks. Did you wipe the stain first, and then apply a damp cloth several times? Then add the stain remover, blot, and dampen again. That usually works. But sometimes there's nothing that will fix it :(

Ketchup and period blood look different anyway... In my experience, anyway.
caplox 6
Yes, but of stain remover is applied, then the color would be a faint red.

Blood is usually a darker red though

Green??????

I think there'd be something medically wrong with you if it was green!

Whenever I ask my girlfriend if she's on her period she usually says "No, I'm blowing a ******* rainbow out my pussy." I guess there's something wrong with her.

On Saint Patrick's Day you can get green ketchup anywhere.

Hmm someone panic.

oh..I've done that too.. that's why it says to test the stain remover on the small less visible area before applying. We learn best, the hard way.

Well, that's technically illegal, so I would call the company up and demand a refund and a new sofa. Sorry for your troubles OP. company's trying to make a quick buck....

How is that illegal in anyway ?
lonkite101 14
Cuz it's obviously not doing why it's "supposed to do" and the company can be fined and have a refund if it happens to enough people.

Yes... But on the back of all bottles there are things listed that the stain remover should not be used for and also it tells you to "test" it in a small, unnoticeable area first... The reason this is all stated on the back is so someone CAN'T sue them.
lonkite101 14
But not all bottles do. Actually most brands these days tell u to just "spray on" and it will automatically clean it. OP did so. Why would they make it so it would stain? It's either stale or REFUND TIME!!! xD. But idc, ik u kinda won the argument, I'm not afraid to say it.

How is this illegal? It states clearly on cleaning supplies of any sort to test a small area that is not visible before using it on larger bits, just in case something like this happens. Some cleaners are not made for certain surfaces. OP may have used a carpet stain remover. Edit: sorry I said the same thing as Above :( my phone told me there were no previous responses to this post.
