Today, I woke up to a flooded basement. That basement is my bedroom, so I'm completely surrounded by water. All I need is a tiger and this would be like The Life of Pi. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up to a flooded apartment. Apparently, the upstairs neighbor's bathtub had overflowed and water was pouring through my ceiling. My landlord said he couldn't do anything until the water stopped, so I spent the morning frantically trying to mop up the water while feeling completely helpless. FML
Today, I came home from my aunt's funeral to find my basement flooded due to a sewer backup. FML
Today, I awoke to find a water pipe burst. I frantically ran down to the basement to turn off the water to the house. What I didn't expect when I reached the bottom of the stairs was to have to start dodging the falling, wet ceiling tiles. FML
Today, I awoke in my bathtub, water all over the floor, all the way into my living room. I drank too much so I don't remember getting into the bath, I have no clue how long I was in there, and I got a message from the manager of my apartment complex telling me the water had leaked into the apartment below. FML
Today, I got to see a waterfall up close. Too bad it was in my bedroom. FML
Today, I'm stuck at home waiting on a plumber to come fix the flooding in my basement. The flooding happens when any sink, shower, or toilet in the house is used. Today is also the day that I started my period. Without water. FML
Today, I got home from work, and saw a note on the counter my roomate left saying "Sorry about the basement." I then went into the basement, and found that it was flooded. My TV, Xbox360, mini-fridge, and couch were all destroyed. Good thing he tried to stop the leak with scotch tape. FML
Today, I woke up to my living room covered in 8 cm of water. My $2k computer was on that floor. FML
Today, I walked into my house and saw it was flooded. I went upstairs to the bathroom to see the toilet overflowing and my boyfriend holding my dog over it so he could drink it. My boyfriend said he didn't know what else to do. FML
Today, I was backpacking, and I was in a tent. It had rained all day and finally, I was dry. I settled down in my slightly damp sleeping bag. I woke up halfway through the night with a frog on my face and my feet in freezing cold water. Our tent had drifted into a frog pond. FML

Just be glad that the house flooded and you didn't actually wet the bed.
Nordrag 26
Oh ya. I forgot that flooding is nothing compared to wetting the bed...
Sinistra_Blue 12
I love when people say "ya" because I automatically give them a swedish accent in my mind. And I was sorta alluding to ralph simpson when his house floods and he thinks he wetted his bed. Very poorly I might add.
Nordrag 26
Huh. I've almost always used ya because its quick like the way I say it. Yeah feels long and drawn out so I use it mostly with sarcasm.
Sinistra_Blue 12
I gotcha. I can't really explain it too well. Its just like this Boston/Swedish accent in my head. I don't like when people say "yea" instead of yeah because it just sounds like "yea, verily I say to thou brother"

I've never thought that, #11, so needless to say, I'll think it FROM NOW ON!

My girlfriend's father is Swedish, and he's very careful about his accent because so many people just want him to talk more because they thinks its hilarious hearing 'ya'.

Perfect excuse for a boat bed

I had a race car bed, when will my room ever fill with asphalt and exhaust fumes?

My airplane bed is still proving hard to figure out where to put the jet fuel. I already took my roof off and everything.

I'd imagine your room must have to be huge in order to get any take off speed, try tearing out a wall to expand your runway.

Cept you'd need a sex change too since the kid in the movie is a boy.

Miserably

Start swimming.
awkwardlysmiles 12
Im just pretty suprised you slept through the whole basement flooding (given it happened overnight) water would've been flooding heavy/loudly to fill the basement by the time you woke. Either way I hope swim well and bought insurance from Allstate, because it seems like mayhem struck again.
monnanon 14
do Allstate have jurisdiction in Egypt?
golden_warrior 23
Just get two long sticks so you can paddle around your room. This way you would never have to walk around your room again :)
