Today, my boyfriend and I cleaned his parents' whole house while they were out, just to be nice. When they came home, they assumed we only did it because we'd made some huge mess that we needed to hide. I'm now banned from their house. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my parents came home after being out of town for the weekend. I stayed home, did homework and completely cleaned the house, thinking I could earn some brownie points with them. They saw how clean the house was and accused me of covering up a party. FML
Today, I hired a cleaner to clean my apartment so when my in-laws visited tonight, they wouldn't think I was lazy. I got home from work, the cleaner hadn't shown at all, and my in-laws had arrived early. My mother-in-law is now mopping the floors. FML
Today, while my parents were grocery shopping, I cleaned the kitchen, swept floors, did laundry, and cleaned bathrooms, only to finish right before they got home. After dinner, my dad bitched and complained that I didn't take out the trash and he had no room to throw away his paper plate. FML
Today, I got banned from my boyfriend's house for being an "insurance liability." FML
Today, the couple I've been housesitting for returned. Apparently, I kept the place too clean, and they don't believe that I actually stayed here. They're refusing to pay me. FML
Today, I discovered that the reason my mom hasn't been noticing the extra cleaning I've done lately is because her boyfriend took credit when she asked about it; and was rewarded for it in bed. I helped him get with my mom. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I decided to sneak into the shower at her house while her parents went out to eat and a movie. Half way through our shower we heard a knocking at the door, it was her mom. We had left all of our clothes downstairs. Safe to say I won't be allowed there any more. FML
Today, I had a big party that left my house really messy. I spent hours cleaning the house until it was spotless. When my parents got home, my dad said, "Did you have fun at the party?" I said, "How'd you know?" and he replied, "You hate cleaning and the house was filthy when we left." FML
Today, I had a bunch of parties while my parents were out of town. I made sure to clean up absolutely everything, I even vacuumed the stairs. As they pulled up, I noticed all of the trash bags filled with beer cans blocking their way into the garage. FML
Today, my parents dropped by my new house, and my mother offered to tidy up for me while I was out. After they left, I noticed that her "tidying up" included throwing out all the pictures of my girlfriend and replacing them with pictures of herself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Even if they made a mess, didn't they clean it anyhow?
MrHotShot22 6
Sorry it was quickest thing I could think of, I'll try and do better next time.

Hey at least that comment is more entertaining than: ''Haha FYL OP that sucks''
MrSassypants 34
It's only more entertaining because it is dumber.

The correct phrase is either more stupid or dumber. By you reply you know have me questioning your intellect. Don't contribute to the comments if you lack the general knowledge that would make your on opinion accurate. Surmise is not needed in text and thus neither are you. As they say. The wise talk because they have something to say, fools talk because they have to say something. Please avoid making being foolish even if it is through this primitive matter of expression

So many mistakes were made trying to sound intelligent ^ did you google all those quotes before you posted them? You must be so proud.

I think the words you were looking for were 'your' and 'now'.

76,81--Do calm down, 73 was being punny (May not be the right adjective?).I think I've seen him/her comment before with fine English.
MURIKKA 11
76- It was a joke, or at least an attempt at one. 81- Just.... Just shut the **** up.
c0c0_fml 16
91, I would go with attempt. No hard feelings. :)

permanent ban? not that you would go back after that.

81- If you're going to correct someone and try to sound intelligent, next time try to avoid all the typos

Good deeds never go unpunished. Yes, good for OP, that was so nice. (: Parents are very suspicious people sometimes.

If the parents didn't trust their son then they should have never left him home alone, or should have had someone check in on him periodically. That being said they can either blame the person who did or did not check on him, or they can trust their son and his gf or whom so ever he chooses to let in their home to treat their home respectfully. Sry op if they didn't see it that way. Maybe if the house was a total wreck I could understand their actions.

She clearly didn't state if they did do it or not.
hihome 7
Explain to them if they don't believe you, one less place to clean and thats their fault

Op shouldnt sweep this under the rug; she needs to explain what really happened
tehcyberman 9
I agree, OP definitely needs to clear up this whole situation! (I gave it my best.)

That was a really dirty thing to say to someone who just cleaned your house. Mop up those tears OP and dust yourself off it was a neat gesture.
imavelociraptor 6
OP could just apologize and start over with a clean slate...

They are either really anal people, or you have done things in the past to make them not trust you. 2 sides to every story I suppose.
whatsupbitches 4
3 sides: yours, mine, and the truth.
MrSassypants 34
I suppose you and I are both filthy liars then, huh?
iOceanus 18
36) Could there possibly be a 4th side if there's a witness?
shannonreneee 11
7, sometimes parents just think the worst no matter what. My parents are exactly like that, despite devoting years to pleasing them. Cannot win.
whatsupbitches 4
63 i suppose there would be 4 if the witness lies. Unless there were 2 witnesses, and they both lie!

It's okay, though. You are banned, but their house will eventually become so filthy that they'll beg you to come back.

And she could charge! Win win.

It's because of things like this people would much rather do nothing than something nice
