Today, it's day two of my family's camping trip. Despite the weather, bugs, and portapotties, we were doing okay, until the can opener broke. My husband is stubbornly insisting that we live off cereal and peanut butter for another five days. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad announced that to "save money", instead of going to the beach we will be going camping. My brothers thought it was awesome. I can't stand the thought. Instead of a sexy golden tan, I now get bug bites, pit toilets, and bear attacks! Ugh! FML
Today, I went camping. My tent is flooded, a raccoon ate all my food, I lost the anchor to my boat which as a result is now across the lake. Three more days. FML
Today, was the third day of my camping trip with my "friends". I woke up in my boxers with my hand glued to my forehead. FML
Today, my family is getting ready for a vacation. My idea of a vacation is being on a beach, staying in a luxurious hotel, with cute guys and great restaurants everywhere. Unfortunately, we are going to be sleeping in a cold tent in the mountains, cook over a fire, and listen to bears stomp around at night. FML
Today, I went camping with my husband. We drove 11 hours to his favourite site before he remembered he didn't put the tent in the car. FML
Today, I got food poisoning in the middle of the wilderness while hiking in a state park with my husband. I had to tend to nature several times before we reached our car. The only supplies I had was a bottle of water and a laminated trail map. It was part of an anniversary trip. How romantic. FML
Today, I got back from a camping trip after being homesick for 3 weeks. I couldn't remember why I had wanted to be away from my family for so long when I signed up for it. When I got home, I remembered. Everyone in my family hates each other. I want to go back to the camping site. FML
Today, I'm on a camping trip, and despite the lovely weather, I'm wearing long clothing so the mosquitoes can’t sting me. Unfortunately, nobody seems to have told THEM that. FML
Today, while my man raves about that one time he went hiking with his brother, without even a sleeping bag, spending the night under piles of dry leaves, now that we are looking for a small camper van, he insists it must have a toilet, kitchen, and indoor shower. FML
Today, my dad decided that campground bathrooms are disgusting and that on our upcoming camping trip, we'll have to keep a bucket of cat litter in our tent in case we want to go to the bathroom. FML

SqueakyChipmunk 22
Or Reese Witherspoon's chin :D

Right? I have had to use a knife multiple times. It isn't that bad.

Stuck in the middle of nowhere with food supplies running low? better drink your own piss. Alternatively, you could find and eat maggots because they're full of good proteins!

LMAO they act like their life is so hard, try living off of nothing but your knife, matches, and gun, they even had a ******* portapotty, cereal, and penutbutter. All I can say is....... CITY SLICKERS! haha

What In hells name where you using that can opener so it would break?
p3mguin 7
75 you have a gun and knife. Im pretty sure you can kill a squirrel or a rabbit off that experience.

89- This isn't the hunger games...killing squirrels....
Captain_Obvious2_fml 6
And the IOS device you are using for this app, right?
Captain_Obvious2_fml 6
Yes, 92, killing squirrels. Squirrels are a common small game animal, which are commonly hunted.

Camping trip messed up by a can opener ? This is what we have came to
DogsPaw 16
85- "What in hells name were you doing to the can opener to make it break." Cheap ass can opener I guess...

Try SERE training op then get back to me...you have plenty to survive on.
NotLemon 16
Use a rock and ground the edges of the can until the lid pops right off. Problem solved!
DLBL 23
Right! When camping, one must always have a big sturdy knife and rope.

I could live off of cereal for about a week if I had to, and hey, at least you have something to eat and you won't starve!
Rowdey 10
I clicked on you.
DontClickOnMe 28
Yeah, everyone does. I can't help it if I'm so irresistible. ;)
CaramelMacchiato 13
Mm, yeah. That twisted face of yours get us all hot and bothered.

Did anyone else wonder how OP is on a camping trip but on the Internet? O.o Ahh! I'm so discombobulated.. D:
TheEpicMilkMan 13
#121 3G/4G or a personal wifi device can get you internet many different places
TheEpicMilkMan 13
damn I typed that all wrong D': I'm sorry grammar Nazis I was half asleep :'(
skoob1 12
They have electric... But they can't get a new can opener?
Warchamp7 3
You used "discombobulated" completely wrong...

Is that really all the food you brought, where the only things not sealed in a can is cereal and peanut butter?
xcarxcrashx 9
Seriously, every time I go camping I forget something and have to make a trip to the big dubs. Alternatively ask a fellow camper or go to the camp store? It's really not too big a deal.
EvilTwerp 12
That's not camping you weak bitch.
alexup24 13
This looks like a weird comment thread if its context was about call of duty camping.
EvilTwerp 12
Uh no, it's not. Portapotties? Canned food? Cereal? Peanut butter? What do you live in? A ******* trailer? This bitch even has phone service. True camping is taking a shovel with you every time you poop. None of that food you take with you. Phone service? Get real. Weak bitch.
Argumental_Rhino 8
Wow, where's your ingenuity OP? you're from BC, we're known for camping. Despite your Internet access, portapotty, and canned food you can't find a damned way to open a can? How humanity evolved to where we are now, I'll never know.
SuperKnuckels 6
they mustve gone to a motel xD thats all i can think of. Some shady ghetto ass motel with roaches n spiders, the toilets dont work so they use a portapotty, theres no restraunt so they brought crappy food; and now they're sitting in the middle of a floor wondering what to do. Picture that and laugh with me. xD

Cereal AND peanut butter? LUCKY!
zachherbert 10
The real questions here are: Is it crunchy peanut butter? What kind of cereal? We need answers!
CaramelMacchiato 13
Kill two birds with one stone and eat Captain Crunch! >:D
Rowdey 10
I'd choose to live off of peanut butter and cereal even if I had a can opener..
DontClickOnMe 28
Well hey, at least you have something to eat and you won't starve!

you didnt think to bring a knife? isnt that like rulle #1 of camping?
Shit_talkin_chik 5
Yes, rule #1. Bring knife! And Ay could get savage and hunt or fish... Vegetarians Calm! Dnt Hate! We're all just animals, without all the processed food, it's Natural to hunt & gather & eat from the land, therefore animals. Animals eat other animals... Life!

The ****?

They have portapotties I don't consider what they're doing to be camping.
minisquid 9
No, rule number one of camping is always pack toilet paper.
mommy2cassidy 18
#138 I totally need to have a portapotty when I go camping thanks to IBS and I CAN go outside but I do not have good balance and I would rather not fall over in the middle of going to the bathroom
ohcoolstorybro 14
Ahhh the wilderness
Habu987 9
Given that there are portapotties present, I don't exactly think they're in the wilderness.
dilqncho 1
OR you could open the cans using knives? I guess you do have a knife? Damn, a can can be opened with pretty much anything sharp if you're determined enough.

Fake a show, get thrown off tv, make deodorant commercials, and then order room service.
