Today, it's been two days since my upstairs neighbour's toilet started flooding both our apartments. I have to go to the bathroom with an umbrella. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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'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, my toilet decided it wouldn't take any more shit from me, and flooded the bathroom. FML
Today, the toilet on the top floor of my house burst, soaked the bathroom, and water dripped down into the kitchen and the basement for hours when nobody was home. Eight blowers and a dehumidifier later, the house is about 90 degrees and I can't leave. FML
Today, my neighbour decided to get high while leaving his bathtub running, resulting in passing out and starting a flood in the hallways. FML
Today, a cyclone hit my city. Though everywhere else is flooding, my house is fine. Well, that was until the toilet decided to overflow and regurgitate the entire town's sewerage. So now my only bathroom is covered in sewage, and I can't go anywhere else because of the flooding. FML
Today, I found out that my toilet leaked into the apartment's ceiling downstairs and it's going to cost over $2000 to fix the ceiling and the clear all of the mould out. I have two different types of insurance and neither of them are likely to cover it. FML
Today, I went to the place I signed for yesterday to pay the first month's rent and get my keys. I looked around before I left, and used the toilet. I went back later to show my boyfriend and found the place flooded an inch with water coming from the toilet. It had been flooding for 7 hours. FML
Today, my entire region received record rainfall, with torrential downpours all day and night. Today was also the day I discovered my car's sunroof leaks, when I was greeted with two inches of standing water in my floorboards. FML
Today, I came home from my aunt's funeral to find my basement flooded due to a sewer backup. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Soap is too far to reach!! At least it would be for me.

Must be hard wiping while holding an umbrella

Forget wiping. Use the falling water.

Speak to your land lord about changing where your apartment is? Until they can fix the situation.
xStaciexLynnx 15
Or talk to the landlord about fixing the plumbing...?
Palirose 22
Well i wouldnt want to live in an apartment with toilet water constantly pouring on me. Plus the water damage can lead to mold build up and end up being a health hazard. Ect. Hence why i said speak to the land lord about being able to change apartments. moving into one where there is no damage ect.

Why does Willy Wonka's 'churning chocolate waterfall into a beautiful flowing chocolate river' come to mind?

I recommend you take the plunge and go talk to your neighbour.

Are you crazy? Who talks to their neighbor? OP don't do it. That's just nuts. Eventually the water will just run out. It's only been two days and your computer is still dry. I think you can hold out.

4th rule of FML: Never talk to your neighbors. They are always either assholes, insane, or incredibly annoying.

Believe me. I often go through the same problem at my apartment. Get that landlord on it or call health apartment inspectors.

Bust down their door and go turn off their water. Or tell the landlord. The choice is yours. But FYL, that's disgusting.
