Today, my Dad thought "Joseph" and "Francis" were two people hacking our internet. They are actually the names of my laptop and iPod, which have now been blocked from using our modem. He can't figure out how to unblock them. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad got a warning from our ISP for going well over their fair usage limit. I barely use our wifi, and I keep telling him he should password-protect our router to stop people leeching our Internet. He's blaming me anyway, and says I'm grounded until January. FML
Today, my dad was sat on my laptop in the living room trying to learn how to do some rewiring around the house when he, and I quote, ”clicked on the thing.” My laptop is now riddled with so many viruses it’s basically a house brick. FML
Today, I got a computer. When I opened it, I found out that my dad had made himself the administrator. He made it so everything shut off after 11 o'clock, and made it so I couldn't download anything without his password. FML
Today, my dad asked my help with a computer problem. Whenever he logged on Facebook, every single advertisement appeared to be hardcore porn. I had to awkwardly explain that these ads are based on his browsing habits. FML
Today, my dad went through all the trouble of sneaking onto my laptop and photoshopping a bong into my Facebook profile picture, apparently just so he could win a €20 bet with my mom, that hinged on her grounding me by December. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, my dad let me use his phone. Five minutes later, he had my mom call it because he thought he'd lost it. FML
Today, I tried to get my son off of the couch by turning off the wifi. Afterward, I went to watch tv. Turns out he got me back by turning off the cable. FML
Today, my nitwit son infected our family computer with some sort of mad bastard virus after getting fooled by the promise of some non-existent Hannah Montana nudes. FML
Today, my husband was concerned about our son using the Internet, so he told him a story about a kid who gave out his personal information and was kidnapped and killed by a maniac. Now our son is scared to use anything with a screen. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That sucks. You should talk to the tech support for your modem. They should be able to fix it.

YDI, OP, for naming your iPod and laptop "Joseph," and "Francis."

At first, I was going to say use the internet to find out how to unblock them, but I just realized you can't go on the internet anymore, stupid me. But why would you name your laptop and iPod?

Today my Dad blocked my iPod and laptop from the Internet, yet I still managed to write and submit this FML. FML.

Some of my hardware is named. It makes telling people what to do easier when they know what the hardware is named. "Turn on FRAG" or "turn on the computer 3rd from the left of the 1st group" Which is easier to understand when others know what frag is?

check for mac address filtering on your router (not modem), you can also change your computers Mac address, not advised though.

sulitak 27
I do, just so I know which one is mine when looking at usage... its easier to pick out when someone hacked you if you see "LaptopName" and anything else using your wireless gets blocked.

celialevi1234 2
she said her iPod and laptop couldn't connect to her home's Internet, she could have gotten Internet from another place like school or just used some other device that wasn't blocked from her home's modem like her dad's computer, duh

I named my IPhone Lianalla, and my IPod (from a few years ago) George. my laptop, bless it's soul, was Lappeh-topo.

I named mine Titanic so when it syncs it says "Syncing Titanic"...

The Titanic? I would imagine it's been down there for awhile, since 1912, I think.

If you can't access your modem, how are you posting this? Public library? Desktop? JC
docscientist 10
Hmmm, maybe a DESKTOP!? Or at least, obviously, another pc in the house. It was the kid's stuff that was blocked, afterall.
kmccain 27
Or it could be a phone
