Today, my boyfriend and I were preparing for the arrival of Hurricane Sandy. I tasked him with going out to buy emergency groceries in case we lose power. He returned with dozens of microwave cup noodles. We're going to starve. FML
cupnoodles tells us more.
OP here! My boyfriend bought regular cup noodles, but our building uses electricity for hot water. We ended up buying one of those hot plates, which was a good investment! Although his comment was really uncalled for, speaking respectfully to #1, I think that everyone has their own issues to deal with. We use this site for each others entertainment and to tell others general issues we have as people. Similarly to how you MIGHT post about getting stuck at home from, what maybe many New Yorkers consider, a little amount of snow and saying FML, I am doing the same about about a, what you consider, little category 1 storm. I hope your mood turns around because taking it out on someone you don't know over the internet will only cause a lot of psychological damage to you and potentially someone who is not self-actualized or confident. The area we live in is currently in danger of a power outage, but I think we're ready for it! Thank you everyone for all their warm prayers and so much more! :)

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

A hurricane is a hurricane no matter where it is. People have died already. Plus living in a hurricane prone are isn't something to brag about. Shut up.

Your number is up either (ee) way. If the power goes out, you'll starve; but if the power stays on, you'll die of clogged arteries, high blood pressure and diabetes. Ramen noodles aren't good in a disaster. They are a disaster.

Definitely high blood pressure. One of those cups has a third of your daily recommended sodium.

Don't worry, OP. The news likes to exaggerate things to make them sound more frightening. When it "hit" here in South Florida, we considered it kinda sunny and everyone went about there day.

Never send a man to do a woman's job.

Right, because a woman's place is in the kitchen or at the store buying food for her man. I can't believe some upstarts actually garnered the right for women to vote; complete insanity, if you ask me.

Who needs water? Put the noodles and flavoring in a plastic bag, shake, and enjoy :)

It says on the side of cup noodles to not cook them in a microwave

Return them and get real food/stuff you can eat raw. As long as the soup is not open you should have no problem returning it. Hint: don't get milk.
