Today, I went in my room to play my guitar. I found my Les Paul on the floor with all the strings missing. I later found out my grandma cut them off because I was playing "Devil's Music." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while tuning my bass guitar, I noticed a very strange screeching sound. I leaned over to look behind the neck. The biggest string snapped off and cut the side of my face. FML
Today, I had to babysit my dying grandmother, so I brought up my guitar. She hadn't said anything to anyone today, and the first thing and only thing she said was, "Stop. Make it stop" to me when I played. FML
Today, my sister was playing a rock star in a play. When she got home, she told me she used one of my old guitars, because I told her it was ok. I said she could take one to practice on, not destroy on stage. FML
Today, I finally had enough to buy my dream guitar, made in 1965. I buckled it into the passenger seat because it unfortunately didn't come with the original case. Once home, I tripped over my own feet before reaching my front door and scratched it on the concrete. It wasn't in mint condition when I bought it, but now it looks like it had a bad relic job. FML
Today, I was walking down the street with my acoustic guitar on my back. I saw a girl that I like coming down the opposite way, so I decided to play my guitar to try and impress her. I started to tune it quickly, but while I wasn't paying attention, I ran into a pole. Now my guitar is cracked. FML
Today, my house was broken into. How? My mom left a key under a flower pot on the porch. She also left a note on the door saying so. He stole all of my guitars. FML
Today, I accidentally left some music playing on my iPad, then left to do some errands. When I came back, I found it smashed into a million pieces. Apparently, grandpa couldn't find any other way to "shut off that goddamn music." FML
Today, I was told by my neighbors that my guitar playing sounded a dying cat. FML
Today, my girlfriend and her mother bought a hanger for my $2000 guitar as a birthday present. They wanted to surprise me by hanging it on the wall. They screwed it upside down, so before I came home it fell off and my guitar broke. FML
Today, after practicing a song for my girlfriend on guitar all day, I called her over to my house to show it to her. After a long speech about how "this is for you," I played for about 3 seconds before I broke a string, which slapped her in her face. FML

I don't think Grandma's familiar with the Golden Rule. I say you steal her knitting needles. That'll show her.

Sounds like it's time for grandma to be sent to the home. Or the grave yard.

Gibson Flying V + Fender Mustang + Gibson J200 +Epiphone Casino stolen = FML. OP's story does not.

strings are really easy to replace. it's not an FML.

aw that sucks. but it depends on if it was a Gibson or an Epiphone. Gibsons are really good, epiphones aren't. so, FML if it's a gibson, if not, oh well, go buy strings. either way, extremely easy to replace.

take the bible she keeps under her pillow and set it on fire in front of her face and also tell her "I'll be playing at your funeral" :)

For all of you who are criticizing Christians...I play at church and let me tell you...that's not how all of us are...it's more the old school tradional way of thinking...if you can to the church I play at, our music has alot of similarities with U2, creed, and many rock bands you're familiar with. OP that was a crappy thing to do...yesterday I found my 800 dollar strat with not only a string broken, but two places where something was knocked against it and chipped through the finish into the wood. She should NOT have touched your guitar. At the church I grew up in what I play at church would most likely be called devils music too. Not because of the lyrics but the sound apparently makes it automatically bad. That really sucks...I'm sorry your g-ma did that.,.to everyone that said just get new strings...it's the principle of it. Yeah they're cheap but the guitar may not have needed new strings. I usually go through a set about every 2 weeks...so it gets pricey when I'm replacing strings in 2 or 3 guitars every 2 weeks. So shutup. Anyway, that's that...if you are from eastern Oklahoma area check out thebod.tv were not that kind of church...come check things out.
