Today, I was in the shower 'grooming' myself for my second anniversary with my boyfriend. Halfway through the hot water ran out. I now have the choice of going with the low 'half-fro' or risking hypothermia. My boyfriend thinks hypothermia would be the better option. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend turned down a shower with me because he didn't want to get his hair wet. FML
Today, due to plumbing issues, I had to choose between a goosebump-inducing cold or skin-blistering hot shower. This is the 7th day in a row. My husband says it shouldn't be more than another week before he "gets it figured out". FML
Today, I flushed the toilet while my boyfriend was showering. He responded by throwing a huge fit, saying how if he “gets a cold” from being “forced” to shower in cold water, I’m gonna “have to stay home and take care of him until he’s better.” FML
Today, my boyfriend pointed out that the water bill is getting kind of high. I suggested that we shower together to save water. He said he'd rather deal with the high water bill. FML
Today, my flatmate took his hour plus long shower while we both tried to get ready for work. I had a choice to wet myself or pee in a cooking pot. I chose the pot. FML
Today, the heating in my house broke down. I called my boyfriend and asked if I could stay at his place until I could get it fixed. He said no, and told me my overgrown leg hair would keep me warm. FML
Today, I passed out in the shower with my boyfriend. He just left me there. FML
Today, the water cut out while I was showering, covered in soap and shampoo. I had to rinse with freezing cold drinking water from the fridge. As soon as I'd dried off, the water supply got restored. FML
Today, I turned the shower on the hottest setting so it would warm up quickly. I started to sing and dance around the bathroom. I got too carried away and pelvic thrusted the water, which I hadn't turned back down. FML
Today, I had a planned 12-hour power cut for maintenance work, which I'd forgot all about. In need of a shower before work, I spent 45 minutes boiling pots of water on the stove to take a lukewarm, 6-inch deep bath, before realizing my water heater runs on natural gas and was working fine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You don't get hypothermia in the shower. Because you are a drama queen, OP, YDI. I've had it. It took 45 degree water, wet clothing, and a night in the wet clothing in cold air outside (unplanned overnight on an island after white water kayaking). Two minutes of cool water will not do anything bad to your body.

Why is everyone going on about this extremely obvious point that she's not going to get hypothermia? uhh no shit. hey 31, remember me? of course not and who gives a shit anyways. on about homosexuals again I see, hmmm makes one wonder

I agree!!! don't look like 2 face down there!!! *interesting dialog voice* "half woman, half wolf. shakira was right, it's a shewolf!!!" DUNUNUH!!!

Wait 15 minutes for your hot water heater to warm up the water again. Just a thought.

I'm truly sorry man. you have no idea what your talking about, I can't continue to do this without being a total asshole. I fear your stupidity may lead me to hate all Canadians. I just can't have that, I love Canadia

YDI for letting it get that bad.
indiansfreakx41 4
yeah. completely agree!! I shave everytime I shower or I don't feel clean. that is beyond disgusting. boohoo the water is cold. my water gets ice cold everytime I shower but it doesn't mean I stop bathing. there should never be a fro down there, I don't care if snow starts coming out of the shower head.
tulsafml 0
YDI because I am pretty sure I shower like that alot and I never got hypothermia.
GoingLesbian 0
Not everyone shaves. Some people like it that way, and some people can't due to sensitive skin. I feel like I'm trying to spread 'awareness' about epilepsy or something.. geez..
katie15xx 0
yeah but you can't deny it's not disgusting to have some bush?
indiansfreakx41 4
I think everyones skin is sensitive for a little while. Mine was but after shaving for so long my skin got used to it and it's fine now. plus it does matter what kind of razor you use. and yes, in 2011 it is disgusting to have a big ol' bush. Even for men it's gross in my opinion.

Seriously, OP, you're that helpless that you can't bath or shave without hot running water? Have you heard about warming water in a pot? Using a basin? Hypothermia? WTF are you talking about, are you live on the antarctic? Suck it up, cold water did no harm to anyone (That cold, at least..)

If it seriously takes that long maybe you should **** shave a little more often. Or maybe take it as a sign that you aren't having sex very often, which means your bf finds you repulsive.

I do not think that use of repugnant language is required and personally find your comment rather distasteful :P

Welcome to the internet. Expectation of civility is gone the moment commander dipshit put her situation on FML. Its here for our entertainment. If she didn't want comments of all kinds, she should have kept her personal shaving stories personal.

... you do realize not all people find looking like a pre-pubesent girl/boy sexy right? Having hair down there is natural and alot of people don't mind, it's a matter of opinion and taste.

**** what is wrong with people from Canada spelling CANADIAN WRONG?! Way to give us a COMPLETELY horrible name! PS; we aren't all idiots!
Athena3_fml 0
Hey dumb ho, "Canadien" is the French spelling for Canadian...you know, since we live in a bilingual country? It isn't "wrong". You're just a stupid **** who made Canadians look even worse while attempting to come off smart. #Fail.

I prefer calling Canadians 'eskimos'
rocketeer_97 1
i absolutely agree with 231 !
daminantion 14
I personally call all Americans "hocks", dice they're from the south. logic makes the same sense as "Eskimo" right? You yanks should really learn more about the world, nonetheless your neighrbours, to bother with world politics. Speaking of which, after Libya who do you plan on bombing next? War-hungry pigs, you should all open your eyes and smell the coffee, which was probably grown outside of the States. Appreciate the world and it's diversity; God help us if the entire world were all like YOU.
daminantion 14
Hicks*** apparently iPhone (an American product) didn't like the word describing it's origin
5t3ff1k4h 45
237 - But then you need to differentiate between genders -- Canadien vs Canadienne Unless you live in Quebec, I don't see why you can't just spell it "Canadian".
Nimmrodel 11
I knew this would turn into my country is better than yours pissing contest, well done guys
Athena3_fml 0
250-When referring to the general population, no you don't. The point is that it isn't wrong, and for that chick to be ignorant of the fact, while attempting to correct someone else at the same time was pathetic.
5t3ff1k4h 45
260 - I didn't read the actual comment itself until just now. When referring to the general population, and when speaking French (as it's not common to do so in English) you would not need to differentiate between genders. That said, it's really stupid to spell it 'Canadien' if you're speaking the rest of your sentence in English.
RUSH777 0
EXACTLY. Like, when I'm speaking about Germany in English, you don't hear me saying Deutschland. I say Germany. Because I'm not speaking in GERMAN.
Athena3_fml 0
#262 I'm aware of that. However, when the original comment was made, the female who made the comment was not aware that Canadien is the French spelling for it. Had she been aware, her comment would not have called those who spell it in French dumb, or implied that they are because they're spelling it "wrong". Instead she would have asked people to spell it in English while communicating in English instead of French.
RUSH777 0
I'm more than aware that's how people from Quebec spell it. But as far I'm also concerned, Quebecers (as a whole) aren't even proud to be Canadian. They want to be their own country for Christ sakes. We (the rest of Canada) have our own stereotypes towards Quebec, as they do for us.
slushpup9696 12
247 - Calling all Americans "war-hungry pigs" has rescinded your right to be mad when somebody makes a Canada stereotype joke. Try being self-aware and realizing not everyone in America has the same opinion about Libya.
lilmissfail 0
a) the only reason my name has fail in it is cause i couldn't think of anything better to name it and b) I spell canadien with an e cause I am ******* French ok? is that so wrong I don't think so. 100$ sais I speak more languages than you
lilmissfail 0
I speak more french in a week than I do English thats why I spelled with an e. and o don't think 2012 will happen I was pointing something out.
5t3ff1k4h 45
280 - I highly doubt you can PROPERLY speak more languages than I can. I cannot speak for anyone else. But since you seem to butcher the English language and can't even differentiate between English and French as a language, I'm going to say you're bluffing or a complete idiot. Just because you're French doesn't mean you're allowed to make that mistake. Sorry, but even the French can remember to a split second prior when they typed an English word. You don't just 'forget' you're speaking English.

oh wow that sucks!

but in all seriousness, a cold shower isn't so bad. just sport through it, you can't get hypothermia from that.
ReynshineCutting 10
It depends. I don't remember where it says OP lives but a cold shower in Colorado is literally painful since the water is so cold here.
Babblez 0
She lives in Australia, its been pretty warm here and it's certainly not the middle of winter. You could quite easily get away with a cold shower, or even using the kettle to put enough warm water in the bath to finish the job, it's not like you need that much water..
ImaginaryFoe 1
My God, you're dramatic. Do you really need Victoria Falls to groom yourself? Presumably you are already damp. Handle your business, rinse off with cool water and be done with it.
mobius8 0
Agreed. I think she just posted this for attention by telling the world she shaves down there. I mean, "I ran out of hot water in the shower" is quite possibly the lamest fml posted on here.

100% agree. This is NOT an fml
