Today, I was Skyping with a guy I'm really into. I'm not supposed to Skype at night, so when I heard my mum coming, I minimized the window. She walked in before I could mute my mic and started bitching me out for flushing my tampons down the toilet. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was Skyping with my girlfriend. I was incredibly tired and just wanted to go to bed, but she just kept talking and wouldn't let me go. I ended up blurting out, "Your mom's a cunt." just to start a fight and have an excuse to hang up on her. I feel like an asshole. FML
Today, I was talking on the phone to my crush so I went into the bathroom for some privacy. My drunk mother started banging on the door, asking what I was doing in there. I told her that I was on the phone, so she yelled super loud, "While you're shitting?" He immediately hung up. FML
Today, I thought I could stay on the phone and go to the bathroom without him noticing. My mom knocks on the door and without even thinking, I yelled "I'M ON THE TOILET!" He said "ew.." FML
Today, my friend was confiding all her problems to me over Skype. I pressed the mute button so I could let out a fart, forgetting I'd already muted it earlier. I broke several minutes of my own silence with a devastating wet one. Now she won't talk to me. FML
Today, I was on AIM talking to a really cute guy, whom I've had a crush on for forever, when he asked me to video chat. I got so excited and immediately pressed accept, without thinking. Not until he started screaming and cursing did I realize that I was still using my laptop on the toilet. FML
Today, I was on Skype with the guy I like. After a while of being on Facebook I forgot I was on webcam to him and started picking my nose. He ended the call. FML
Today, my mom decided to infodump on me as I came home needing to take a shit. She wouldn't stop talking and calling me back when I tried to walk off. I couldn't get a word in, and she was ignoring my gestures. She's now calling me disrespectful because I finally ran off and dropped a loud one in the toilet. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, I saw my crush standing at the bus stop. I did the "I'm talking to someone on the phone thing," trying to be cool. Halfway through the conversation my phone actually rang, I quickly answered but it was my mom on loudspeaker yelling, "Did you bring your tampons?" FML
Today, I was taking a shower. My mom thinks it's ok to just walk in on someone when they are in there so she decides to take a crap. The worst part is she thought it would be less awkward to talk to me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI - why would you flush them down the toilet? That's stupid and bad in so many ways.

Few things make me laugh. Kids trying to go behind their parents' backs and getting embarrassed in the process is one of them.

Your mother ever heard of knocking? FML for that. And for Skype being stupid and having no real push to talk. YDI for flushing down the tampons and skyping when youre actually not allowed to.

If the guy doesn't accept you for something that you can't control (periods) then he doesn't deserve you.

He can, however, not accept her for being a moron and flushing her tampons down the toilet.

YDI x 2! You shouldn't have Skype at night when you know you're not supposed to and you shouldn't have flushed your tampons down the toilet!

I don't understand how she deserves it unless her family has a septic tank...maybe? I've flushed my tampons since I've started and there is nothing on the box that says don't flush them (just don't flush the applicator...but y'know, duh). Tampons don't just infinitely expand, that's why there are different absorption levels so I don't see it getting big enough to block a toilet pipe.

What kind of brand do you use? Because all packages I've seen have some sort of warning to not flush down, and it hasn't happened to you yet then you're just lucky.

I have also never seen this warning. In fact the ones I used to use actually stated you could flush them.

Exactly. The only thing I've ever seen instructions say to not flush is the applicator. The directions say that someone can either flush or trash the tampon itself- whichever one prefers. Septic tanks and small toilets will obviously be at risk of issues should a tampon be flushed, but that's about it.

YDI. Going behind your parents back and skyping when you know you're not allowed to, AND flushing tampons down the toilet? No sympathy for you whatsoever.
