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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, 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 an amusement park with my family. I was the only one who put on sunblock, and the only one who got a sunburn. FML
Today, after applying sunscreen to myself every two hours, I still got sunburned. Through my clothes. FML
Today, a day after I went to the beach and fell asleep in the sun without applying sunscreen, I woke up to find myself looking like a lobster, with the worst tan lines possible. On top of that, I had to go to a wedding, and when I walked in, my cousin asked if I had “taken a bath in some tomato soup.” FML
Today, I got the worst sunburn I've ever had in my life, and then discovered I'm allergic to aloe when I went to treat the burn with some gel. 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
Today, I was called a wimp for getting a sunburn. FML

You were probably just outside for TOO long. Everything has to be in moderation.

About ten yrs. ago my family decided a Memorial day cook out at the lake was the best way to celebrate( along with many other people in Florida). I had on SPF 80 sun screen, a hat, t-shirt and shorts, and stayed in the shade reading a book. We left after three hours. a few hours later I had to go to the ER with sun poisoning and second degree burns. I'm so pale, an albino once asked me if I was albino to. I feel your pain OP. Feel better soon! ( sorry if it re-posts my app is still acting up)

I am too white as well. I am so white that my skin color is red and the only color I get is more freckles (I am only 1/16 Irish, but it is strong). This summer is the first time I could ever tan, I'm 15, and I go down to Florida at least 2 times a year. I got sunburned in June by going on a cruise to Canada and spent too much time eating on the Lido deck.
