Today, I was watching a movie online. There was a 15 minute ad. 13 minutes into watching an ad about birth control, I noticed that there was a "skip this ad" button in the corner. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, during the trailers at the movies, my boyfriend elbowed me in the ribs and smiled when an ad for a weight loss institute was shown. FML
Today, at my workplace, a TV was installed just above my register at work which plays the same mind-numbingly awful 13 second ad on loop for the duration of our latest sale. The sale lasts for what are going to be three very long weeks. FML
Today, doesn't it piss anybody else off, as well as it seems a bit suspicious, that YouTube adverts will play perfectly without buffering or delay, yet the actual video you wanted to watch can spend almost 5 minutes buffering, and keeps stopping every 10 seconds to buffer again. FML
Today, I got to the movie theater early to avoid missing the previews. I sat through 20 minutes of trailers before realizing I was in the wrong auditorium. FML
Today, I had my first ever mega brain fart. I was watching videos on YouTube when I noticed strange music playing. I paused the video and the music played on. When I turned the app off, I realized the music was coming from the TV, which I had on at the same time in case ads came up. FML
Today, I cancelled out of a video chat with my boyfriend to go take a dump. I took my computer with me to look at Facebook. It took three minutes for me to realize I was still on video chat. FML
Today, I sent my boss a link to a website I thought would answer a simple question she'd asked. Turns out, yes, the site did answer her question, but it also had some very suggestive ads on it. Apparently I'm the only person in the office who uses adblock. FML
Today, I was in a business meeting. I was giving a Powerpoint presentation to my boss and a few other associates. Then a notification popped up in the middle of my presentation reminding me that I needed to renew my pornhub subscription. FML
Today, I finished watching an entire movie after boarding the plane, before the plane even took off. FML
Today, while in a bathroom stall at work, I pulled out my phone to play Candy Crush. Somehow, I hit the volume button, and my phone blasted a YouTube ad for men’s body spray. The whole room went silent. Then I heard someone say, “You need it, son.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

And while you're at home watching that movie, there's a couple out there using that birth control.

Oh no, 13 minutes of your seemingly oh-so-important life has gone! Maybe this is a message sent from above telling you to get a life.

WTF kind of movie site are you using that has 15 minute ads? I can't think of any company that would go through the trouble and money to make one that long.

it takes 30 secs load the ad, 30 secs to put on the condom and 14 mins to get to the ******. Thats 15 mins worth of birth control ad.

I've never seen an ad that long. But for some teenagers, prolonged ads about birth control is a must. Too many "oops, I'm pregnant" stories these days.

You lost 13 minutes... Not sure how this is an FML and it is likely that some people are more observant than others. I tend to overlook things myself sometimes, it's no real issue. : )

It's an FML because the OP is an idiot, and that isn't a nice realisation for a person to come to, or so Every1luvsboners tells me.

YDI for fantasizing about the woman in the birth control advertisement.
