Today, I went for a soak in a mineral hot pool to relax after a stressful day teaching middle school. There were 120 middle schoolers there on a school trip. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was teaching swim lessons. I got felt up by a 6 year-old boy. Three times. FML
Today, I had a stressful day at work and decided to go in the jacuzzi. I hadn't used it for a year, so it was a little dirty. After I cleaned it, filled it up, and jumped in, I pressed the jets. Immediately, thousands of dead moths shot out at full speed towards me. FML
Today, after an extremely stressful day, I took a hot bath when I got home. I used my little sister's bubble bath to make it more enjoyable and relaxing. I then broke out in hives. I guess I'm allergic to bubble bath. FML
Today, I went to get a nice, relaxing hot stone massage. Instead I got second degree burns on my legs. FML
Today, I was teaching swimming. A small boy said his stomach hurt, so I placed him on my back and carried him to the main building where he could lay down. He then jumped off my back and ran back towards the beach because 'he felt better'. I had explosive diarrhea all over my back. FML
Today, I decided to take a relaxing bubble bath in my jacuzzi. I poured in the bubbles, turned on the jets, and got in. I realized too late that the jets had caused the bubbles to overflow and had made a huge mess in my bathroom. Relaxing, indeed. FML
Today, a riot broke out while I was on shift at the community swimming pool. A family snuck in soap so they could use the pool as a giant bath tub. FML
Today, after two years of vigorously fundraising on behalf of my senior class, they voted on spending the senior trip money at a waterpark. It's less than thirty minutes from where we all live. FML
Today, I went to the water park, and got in a line on a staircase to get on a waterslide. A couple of minutes in, I felt a large amount of warm liquid drip on my head. Seconds later, a crying girl was being lead down the stairs, and being told that "everyone wets themselves sometimes." FML
Today, it's the first day of a long-needed vacation after weeks of stress and overtime. I'm having such intense period cramps, I'm bathed in sweat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Soaking in irony, and probably a lot of sweat and hormones too.

Well, the best relaxation is at home! Buy some bath salts, maybe some bubble bath, and indulge yourself in se chocolate, OP.

I hear those bath salts are great for relaxation if you indulge in those as well..

@#39: if they aren't from the US they may not realize that bath salts are a designer drug that makes you trip balls...

Do you own the pool or something? Despite the bad timing, you can't really complain about a public area being used by the public.

If I'm stuck in traffic for a hour, I think I have the right to complain. Or if I'm eating and someone is chewing with their mouth open by me.They have the right to be there, but that doesn't mean it doesn't frustrate or get on another person's nerves. And that person can voice their frustrations if they want to.
mds9986 24
You can't expect the whole world to move out of the way for you. Just relax and deal with things. No point in being frustrated. There's no point. Stick in traffic? Put on some music and relax. Somebody eating with their mouth open? Move somewhere else.

oh my god, 10, op is complaining over the irony that the thing he went there to decompress from is also present at his place of relaxation. he's not saying the kids don't have a right to be there, he's commenting on how shitty the situation is.

Nobody thinks that you are funny or cute. So shut up

Stuck*

Where does it say op wanted them to even move? She is just frustrated and voicing it, because it really does suck. It doesn't meN she wants anything to come from it, she just wants to voice her frustrations because it typically helps. I really hope you NEVER complain or get frustrated or angry with the way you talk.
mds9986 24
If you're complaining, you obviously want them gone. Stop being so self righteous people. Nobody is impressed.
