Today, it was my first day in Paris. I've been saving up for five years. It was a rainy day, but I was determined to go see the Eiffel Tower. On my way, I fell down a slippery set of stairs and knocked both of my front teeth out. Now, I have the view of the Eiffel Tower from my hospital window. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, after a trip to the emergency room for severe stomach pain and almost passing out in the shower, I slipped on the wet bathroom floor and broke my two front teeth. FML
Today, it's been a few days since I moved into a new apartment and was excited to finally have a balcony. I went out to enjoy the view, but as I leaned against the railing, it gave way and I fell two stories onto the pavement below. I ended up with a broken leg and a huge medical bill. FML
Today, after a month of things going wrong in my life and finally getting better, I woke up refreshed and ready to face the day. Then, I fell down the stairs. FML
Today, after working two jobs and saving constantly this year all for a month-long solo vacation traveling to 7 countries, I arrived in first one. Within three hours I fell and broke my foot, forcing me to come home in fear of needing surgery. FML
Today, I went outside for the first time in a week and ended up tripping over something, busting my lip and nose, and breaking a tooth. I ran away in a dazed and confused panic while dropping all my stuff. Not going outside again for a while. FML
Today, I tried to open the door with my mouth because my hands were full. I chipped a tooth. FML
Today, I woke up in the hallway. I took a sleeping pill the night before to get a good sleep in for work, but it turns out it was too strong. I got dizzy and passed out on my way to my bed, fell in the hall and chipped my two front teeth, and slept there - straight through work the next day. FML
Today, I took my two-year-old daughter to the dentist for her first check-up. We were at the front desk when she tripped, fell and chipped her front tooth on the marble floor. FML
Today, it was my first ever live piano performance. It went all great until the end, when I stood up, slipped, and smashed face-first into the keys. I've lost half a tooth and all my dignity. FML
Today, my family and I were just about to leave the house for the vacation that I had been saving up for 3 years. I was coming down the stairs with a heavy suitcase and I tripped and fell breaking my leg, now my family's gone without me while I'm in hospital. I paid for the vacation. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Think of it this way, that's one view of the Eiffel Tower you'll never forget, and you have a story to go along with it. Sorry OP, that's a crappy way to spend your vacation.

*groan* I'm chomping at the bit to like, but it's rather tasteless. To OP, that would really bite. You need to brush up on your puns.

I don't know what's worse. Falling down stairs during a vacation you saved up for 5 years for, or a "murder scene" from shaving your genitals....

I wouldn't exactly say YDI cause you don't, but you should have just waited until the next day for sun at least.. Haha you would have probably enjoyed it better anyway

While in Paris, you ought to go to the Arc de Fail and the Lousre Museum. Haha, just kidding, keep your chin up and smile! Ewww, wait a minute, make that a closed-mouth smile. Go see the Mona Lisa to see what I mean.

Look on the brighter side, your room could have been on the opposite side of the hospital. (: At least you got a great view and won't have to sing the: RHCP the "Other Side" How long how long will I slide

You've been saving up for 5 years? But you leave 2 hours by train from Paris ... That's sad.

While you're in there, be sure to follow l'Hôpital's rule! Zut alors! Nerd alert!

You saying 'Zut alors' now has me singing "The Little Mermaid" Les poissons, les poissons How I love les poissons [Zut alors, I have missed one!]

Nerd alert is when you can describe L'Hopitals rule

#26, nice try, RPS, but I won't fall into your trap, except to say the Guillaume de l'Hôpital would have appreciated Billy (Guillaume) Preston's "Nothing from Nothing" even if a slight rework of the lyrics would be needed.

L'Hopital's rule? As in calculus? I hate indeterminate cases -.-

#45, if you have to ask, you are Nerd Lite. "Nothing over Nothing leaves Something, Provided that the derivative of the second Nothing is non-zero." It's going to take some work.
