Today, I woke up in the middle of the night because I was thirsty. In my groggy state, I grabbed the first bottle of liquid I could find, opened it, and took a sip. It was nail polish remover. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while I was trying to take off my eye make up, I accidentally used nail polish remover. FML
Today, upon waking up, I took a sip on what I thought was a cup of water on my nightstand. I quickly discovered it was my roommate's cup of used mouthwash which she was too lazy to throw out the night before. FML
Today, I woke up at a stranger's house after a long night of drinking. Before leaving, I decided to steal some mouthwash so I didn't smell like a liquor store. Thinking of the night before, I instinctively downed the Listerine like a shot and puked everywhere. FML
Today, after a big house party the night before, I woke up with a dry mouth and a pounding hangover. I took a swig from a cup I'd left on my bedside table the night before, thinking it was water. Nope; it was vodka. FML
Today, I woke up soaked in water. It seems at some point in the middle of the night, I woke up thirsty and opened the water bottle I keep on my nightstand. I managed to drink a little, but it seems I didn't manage to put the cap back on before losing consciousness again. FML
Today, I woke up and put my contacts in. It appears that I got drunk enough last night that instead of soaking my contacts in contact solution, I used mouthwash. FML
Today, I was running late for my morning gym class. I grabbed a near-empty drink bottle on my way out, intending to fill it up at the gym. Mid-workout, I reached for my bottle and took a big mouthful as I headed over to fill it up. To my great surprise, it was not water but straight vodka. FML
Today, I was in a rush, so I was removing my nail polish while using the toilet. Everything was going fine, until I used the toilet paper in my hand to wipe. It was covered in nail polish remover. It still burns. FML
Today, I woke myself up by slamming my ankle into a glass bottle. FML
Today, I was hanging with my friends when out of the blue, I got thirsty. Friends said there was Gatorade in the fridge. Being the trusting person I am, I took a drink, only to discover it was piss. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's repulsive. I would be able to tell by the shape no matter how awake I was. Or at least by the smell.

I dont know where your from OP but if the water is ok where you live then this can be avoided in future by getting a glass of water from the tap. i know there is a lot of places that don't do that or cant do that so this advice could be useless but surely tap water is better than nail polish remover.

Too bad it didn't kill you. Then natural selection would have actually played a part in the modern human world.

this is most likely fake because if OP drank nail polish remover, it could be poisonous and burn his throat. also probably burn some of his stomach acids, since nail polish remover is also an acid. My guess is OP doesn't know what happens if you take in nail polish remover, and just wants attention

The shape of a bottle of nail polish remover in no way resembles the shape of a bottle of potable liquid.

no way the bottles are totally differently shaped! Are you stupid?

Even when I am extremely tired, I am still aware of my surroundings. Unless you were doped up on sleeping pills, how the hell can you mistake nail polish remover for a drinkable liquid? Even if you mistook the bottle, the smell should have made you aware it wasn't for consuming.

Actually, some people take a while to wake. I'm one of them. It's almost like being super high or drunk. Especially when it's still dark, one may not even be half awake. It's not the unusual.
