Today, my college dormitory accused me of something I didn't do, breaking a law that I never heard of, charged me $200 to fix "what I did wrong", and is forcing me to go to counciling at the school. Not only was I not on campus when it happened, but I was the one who reported the problem. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was studying on a bench outside my dorm when the leg snapped. I decided to do the right thing and let administration know what happened. After assuring me it wasn't my fault, and having me fill out an incident report, they billed me $400. I can't enroll for next semester until I pay. FML
Today, one of my students tried to bribe me $200 to change his grade. When I said no and told him he was lucky I didn't report him, he went to the dean and told him I offered to change his grade for money. I'm now suspended and under investigation. FML
Today, my parents threatened to take away my college funds. Why? Because I complained about my 10 pm curfew during break as a freshman in college. FML
Today, I returned to my university residence following spring break. I was greeted by a letter stating I'd been caught on camera vandalising a wall repair. At the time in question, I was asleep on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The REZ coordinator is avoiding me, and I can't clear my name. FML
Today, I was docked and fined in my dorm building because of multiple noise complaints. What was I doing that was so noisy? I slipped in the shower and banged my head against the floor. Then when I reached for the towel rack to pull myself up, it broke and I slammed my wrist onto the ground. FML
Today, I got into trouble for moving my chair around in class, which went on my permanent record, while other people were literally throwing things across the room and being loud but they didn't get in trouble. Tomorrow's my birthday and now my parents won't let me go out, even after I told them what happened. FML
Today, I was at my job in the Dean of Students office. My boss gave me some papers to copy. As I was copying, I read in a report that my boyfriend was written up for "cohabitation" (having a girl stay over) at my Catholic university. The report was from a weekend I wasn't at school. FML
Today, one of my friends got me in trouble when he called our house and asked my parents why they didn't see us at a school conference. My parents were at a meeting elsewhere at the time, so I didn't bother to tell them about it, as we couldn't have gone there to begin with, and it was voluntary. They're mad anyway. FML
Today, I was kicked out of college for not attending a class I wasn't ever enrolled in. FML
Today, I got sentenced to 20 hours community service for having a boy in my room an hour after floor hours. If I don't do the community service, I could get kicked out of the dorm and put on probation at my college. We were breaking up. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If you were the one that reported this 'incident' shouldn't they have record it was you that called? And if you weren't on campus can someone vouch for you to prove you did nothing wrong? I think there are lots of ways to get out of the ticket.. It's super annoying that you have to go through that though :( I'm sorry OP, no fun. Good luck though!!(:

Think of all the stuff you gotten away with prior too- I'd point out...1. I wasn't on campus...2. I reported it.. I'll take my refund now... As for counseling if you pay me to go, fine, if not your not wasting my time..

Just to add to this, how did OP not know it was a rule if they were the one reporting it? Like, you had to know there would be ramifications for the party involved, right?

If by "law" OP means school rule or wtv...Maybe it was something that was disturbing them and they wanted fix (like someone dropped something gross in the hall, lamp had been accidently ripped off a wall, bag with gross/suspicious contents ...) but didn't think the school would make such a big deal out of it?

how did you report something when a law was broken that you never heard of?

Their reasoning is along the lines of "he who smelt it dealt it."
