Today, I woke up, ate breakfast, and left my dorm room, only to see about half a dozen people and my roommate shuffling around in the hall. Their zombie outfits and limping were so realistic that I freaked out and ran back inside, screaming. They think it was the greatest prank ever. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my roommate decided to prank me by leaving a fake suicide note on the bathroom door and lying motionless in a bathtub full of water and red coloring. When I went, horrified, to take a closer look, he lunged at me and screamed. I was so scared I pissed myself. FML
Today, my parents pranked me hard. They spent breakfast messing with my head, all to convince me that I was dreaming. I got so excited at finally having a lucid dream that I ran outside in my pajamas, yelling, "Woo-hoo!" and trying to fly. Nothing happened. People saw. FML
Today, I went to a party dressed as a zombie. Everyone admired my hilarious "zombie dancing". Those were my regular dance moves. FML
Today, I walked into my dorm to find my roommate hanging a voodoo doll of me on a noose. FML
Today, before I went to bed, I watched a terrifying movie with zombies. I woke up with a headache, a bloody nose, and my mom standing over me frantically asking me what was wrong. Apparently I had been "fighting the zombies off" in my sleep and had been punching myself in the face. FML
Today, I was walking to my friends Halloween themed birthday party in my zombie costume. Apparently, my crazy coke addicted neighbor found the costume too realistic. He tackled me. FML
Today, I went to sneakily grab a snack without waking up my roommate. I was being extra quiet, tiptoeing like a ninja. I opened the fridge door slowly, but managed to knock over a stack of Tupperware boxes. The crash was so loud it could’ve woken the dead. My roommate appeared in the doorway, not amused. FML
Today, I got up early to prank my family. I put a bucket of ice water on top of a door frame so whoever walked through would get an icy surprise. After I was done, I went back to bed. I woke up groggy and disoriented like always and walked right through the doorway I had rigged. FML
Today, I was walking down the hallway of my office, texting and not paying attention, when I tripped on… nothing. I just practically face-planted onto the floor, and when I looked up, people chatting in the hallway were staring at me, and asked me if I had tripped over my own foot or if a ghost had pranked me. FML
Today, I locked myself out of my dorm room. I walked across campus, shoe-less and in nothing but my bathrobe, to find someone who could let me back in. Turns out I hadn't even shut the door properly and so it never actually locked. I can still hear the guy laughing at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

They're lucky nobody got hurt. Last time somebody jumped out at me in the dark as a "joke" I floored them before I realised what was going on.

That HAS to be the greatest prank ever!

I'm so scared of zombies that I would've grabbed a weapon to try and kill one before running and hiding. That wouldn't be the greatest prank to pull on me

if you saw a zombie, you'd panic and run!

Who over the age of 10 really thinks zombies are scary? Zombies don't exist. Joke was funny. Not scary.

With all the technology and diseases and messed up things out in the world, who's to say it can't happen? It only takes one super smart mastermind who works in that particular field to make something incurable with the right mix or something and shit could go down right away. Have you not watched Resident Evil, Zombieland, or World War Z?

You should Google "zombie virus," 22...

@30, I think that a more accurate portrayal of a zombie-esque outbreak would be from the Walking Dead, or maybe 28 Days/Weeks later. World War Z was a joke.

#36 I did think of the walking dead but it was too late I already posted it and didn't edit in time. I think world war z was really meant to show how fast chaos would happen if something like zombies did occur and how unprepared most people are, even for the basics, not so much the superhuman zombies themselves. Most people don't think to prepare for things they don't believe could happen.

Why is everyone giving you thumbs down on this? Lol XD....Do people seriously think zombies are possible? I agree that it sounds hilarious, especially if you're still kind of groggy in the morning.

@47, I seriously think that zombies are a possibility. Strains, infections, viruses, you name it. Reanimation is real. Maybe not the whole "brrraaaaaiiiinnnssss" deal, but it certainly is a viable possibility.

zombies don't exist, but certain drugs can lead people to eat other humans look at the incidents in Florida, and the man in NJ who ripped out his own intestines and threw them at the swat team trying to save him...

They are lucky they didn't do it to me or they'd get shot

Because the first thing you'd reach for after walking out your dorm is your gun.. Genius I wish I was that prepared all the time.

Why would you have a gun in a dorm room?

This gives me great ideas.

Amazing prank! Your roommate has a wicked sense of humour!
