Today, I went to the laundromat for the first time. I fit all of my clothes into two washers. Not knowing where to put the soap in, I asked a man doing his laundry, "Excuse me, where do I put the soap in?". He replied, "Ma'am, those are the dryers." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the laundromat. I put a load in the dryer and walked away to check on my other load. When I came back, I saw a homeless man putting his dirty, wet underwear in the dryer with my clean clothes. FML
Today, I did laundry at a laundromat for the first time. I then folded everything on the table, until an old man tapped my shoulder and said, “Uh, those are my socks.” I'd neatly folded his entire load of laundry. He took it back without a word. FML
Today, at the laundromat. I loaded a huge load into the top dryer, put all the quarters in, and started the bottom one. I realized my mistake when I came to check on it. FML
Today, I finally got around to doing laundry. The washing machines in my condominium building take about an hour to do a load. When I returned to throw my clothes in a dryer, I realized they were never washed in the first place. I used my card and detergent to pay for another person's laundry. FML
Today, while a very cute girl was explaining the apartment's laundry machines to me, I blurted out, "It's okay, my pants are used to handling huge loads". FML
Today, I walked into my house with a couple of friends and I saw my girlfriend doing laundry. I jokingly asked her if she had time to do a load of mine as well. She scoffed and said, "Yeah babe, I'll gladly do your laundry… The same day you learn to wipe properly." FML
Today, I went to pick up my laundry from the communal machines in my apartment building. When I got there, all my clothes were neatly folded on top of the dryer. I was impressed, until I realized half of the pile wasn’t mine. I'd been carrying someone else’s underwear up to my apartment. FML
Today, I went to do the laundry at my hotel. I had just enough money for my two loads. After getting frustrated with the washer taking two of my quarters and giving no credit, I took the clothes out. The washer then locked the door shut and started without my clothes. FML
Today, I did laundry for the first time in weeks. Feeling productive, I dumped everything in, including what I thought was my pile of towels. Turns out, I washed (and shrunk) my roommate’s $200 wool sweater. She found out when I proudly showed her how “clean” everything looked. FML
Today, I did my laundry in my dorm. After dragging 2 hampers down 4 flights of stairs, my ID card with money on it was rejected. After dragging it back upstairs, I scrounged up enough quarters from friends. Thirty minutes after finally starting my laundry, I realized I forgot to add detergent. FML

What kind of sad excuse of a human (if the person in question is atleast the age of 12) doesnt know the difference between a dryer and a washer. Let alone how to use them. Shame on you and your parents!

LOL #7 Yeah, #13 is right. Are you that stupid? Seriously.... And I bet this person just did it for attention, they probably and hopefully know the difference. Or maybe they're a rich bitch and has never had to do it before.

LOL, that sucks... if you never wash your clothes at home then you're probably spoiled and lazy as many have said. BUT, sometimes the washers and dryers look different in a laundromat, and it can be a little confusing if you aren't paying attention. However... little tip... if it has a lint catcher thingy, it's a dryer. If it has cold, warm, hot water settings, it's a washer. ;)

How the hell is this a FML situation? You must live on a freaking golden cloud filled with cream and with a constant supply of fresh perfect-consistancy slurpee. And this slurpee tap also deposits soft serve ice cream, hot fudge, and cookie dough, all magically enhanced to do absolutely nothing to your body. There must be a slot on the side of that amazing cloud that deposits credit cards connected to bank accounts with an infinite amount of cash in them, and you've got a terabyte-per-second internet connection that allows you to buy whatever the hell you want whenever you want with immediate delivery and no wait whatsoever, with instant return if you aren't satisfied. Because "Today, I had to move my clothes from a dryer to a washer." is NOTHING CLOSE to something even worth THINKING about complaining about.

This is probably the more boring FML I've ever read.

I am at a loss for words.... Who the hell doesn't know the difference from a washer and dryer at a laundromat? I hope you don't have kids and don't plan on procreating anytime soon, if ever. However, my guess is that since you don't know which hole is for detergent you won't know about the other holes either. Okay, I guess the human race if safe. Just to be sure, please do us a favor and chlorinate your gene pool. Plzkthxbye!
