Today, my dad created a new rule: It isn't old until there's mold. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

My house, my rules
Today, my dad made a new house rule: "If it's yellow, let it mellow; if it's brown, flush it down." My whole house now smells like piss. FML

Today, my mom finally believed me when I said I smelled mold. I lifted up the couch, and it was covered in mold. So were the bottoms of all our furniture, our beds, and my grandma's vintage chair. We've been living in mold for the past 4 months. FML

Moldy excuse
Today, my idiot daughter has allowed mold to grow in her shower. Her excuse? She thought it was just some “stains” that wouldn’t come out. Yeah, I don’t believe that. I think she knew it was mold and just didn’t care. FML
Sick
Today, I noticed a thick layer of mold growing inside the straw of my water bottle. I use that bottle every day. FML

Cruel summer
Today, it’s a rather wet summer and everything in our house is prone to mould. No, I’m not exaggerating when I say “everything”: I just found mould growing on the plates in the cupboard. And, no, we did not accidentally put them away unwashed. FML
Cheese luv

Today, my father threw out my $100 wedge of blue cheese because it "smelled funny". FML

Today, my dad threw out all my food because a fly landed on a loaf of bread still in its package. He claims the bread and everything else that touched it is "contaminated". That was all the food I had for the rest of the month. FML

Hangover blues
Today, I woke up hungover and went to the kitchen for some food. I saw what I thought was a blueberry muffin. Halfway through eating it, I realized I couldn’t taste any blueberries, so I tried another one. I then remembered my dad telling me to throw out any old food we had. It was mould. FML

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Today, I noticed mold on my toothbrush. I have no idea how long it's been like that. I told my husband about it via text, and all he could say was, "Welp... ew." We've had a mold problem for years and I'm constantly sick. I also mentioned this and he sent me a shrugging emoji. FML
uncleaning
United States
Today, after I cleaned out the fridge of things that expired months ago, my roommate got angry and insisted upon pulling all the moldy dairy products out of the garbage and putting them back because "they weren't mine and I shouldn't throw out other people's food." FML

We normally eat everything before it gets a chance to come within a month of the expiration date :
Sidel 11
well, the expiration date is just a guideline, just because it's a few days past that doesn't mean it's poisonus... just look and smell at the food and maybe taste it a little before eating it and you should be fine. but maybe you shouldn't wait till there's mold...

What about cheese though?
Schiffy 18
That can work with bread and cheese, but is he saying that the milk has to get moldy before it can be thrown out?
