Today, I went to an amusement park with my family. I was the only one who put on sunblock, and the only one who got a sunburn. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was badly sunburnt even after making it a point to apply a lot of sunscreen. My coworkers thought it amusing to slap me every chance they get. FML
Today, I went to the beach. After applying sunscreen liberally and doing my best to stay out of the sun, I came home with the worst sunburn I have ever had. I almost needed to go to the hospital. I am officially too pale to be allowed outside in summer. FML
Today, I was called a wimp for getting a sunburn. FML
Today, I went on a camping trip with my friends, but forgot to bring sunscreen. I spent the entire day outside and ended up with a severe sunburn all over my body. The pain is unbearable and I can't even move without yelping as if I was slowly being cooked in an air fryer. FML
Today, I got sunburnt to a crisp on the first day of my holidays away. Only 5 more days to go now, spent inside, trying not to burn more. FML
Today, I'm so pale that I managed to get a sunburn while sitting in a bus. FML
Today, after applying sunscreen to myself every two hours, I still got sunburned. Through my clothes. FML
Today, I tried being the 'cool parent' by taking my kids to a fancy, expensive amusement park, but ended up getting stuck on every ride and getting motion sickness. FML
Today, I'm on vacation and stupidly bought the cheapest sunblock I could find. Instead of protecting my skin, the sunblock acted as a damn lightning rod for the sun, and I now look like I just spent a few hours on a spit-roast. FML
Today, I was really badly sunburnt, so I put on some after-sun. The only type we have has glitter in it, and now I look like a sparkling tomato. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

The proper way to apply sunblock is to bathe in it for at least 176 hours. If you do that you'll not only be protected from the sun, but possibly a nuclear blast.

Murphy's Law. Didn't you learn to reapply every two hours?

welll so much for that :/

Maybe the OPs skin colour is the same as Voldemorts, that lovely pasty colour. You don't see Voldemort hanging out in the sun now, do you. Tsk.
Keyman1212 14
That's because the sun is ******* scared of Voldemort. He's like the Chuck Norris of the wizarding world. And Harry is Bruce Lee from Return of the Dragon. It's a stretch. Deal with it.

I guess your skin is an over-achiever
thesunsetglow_fml 8
In that case, 11, the OP must not be as terrifying as Voldemort/Chuck Norris and therefore should NOT have been in the sun because they're just the pasty disgusting baby thing Voldemort was before he became human. OP you deserve it for being a nasty Voldemort baby.

18. last time i checked voldemort was always a human, it's his death spell that reflected off Harry and hit him that made him like that.

42- Because he split his soul into seven pieces he is no longer considered entirely human. :)

That would even protect your bone marrow from burning.
