Today, my fish's tank was all green and nasty, but I had no time to clean it because I woke up late, so the job was left to my mom. When I came back, the water level seemed high, and the fish looked a little strange, so I asked my mom what she did. She said "I cleaned the tank with chlorine!" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my dad decided to clean my 20 gallon fish tank. I had 6 fish. One of them was called a transparent fish, clear with a bright orange tail, which was my favorite. My dad didn't see it, and dumped the water out along with it. FML
Today, I spent almost two hours cleaning my fish tank, only to find out that my cat had secretly eaten all of my fish while I was cleaning the tank. FML
Today, I tried to surprise my mom and wash her car while she was away. Today, I also found out how gross our well water is. The car looks worse than before. FML
Today, I finally found out why my fish were dying in their tank. My younger sister had been spraying detergent in there because she wanted "to make the fish smell like lemons". FML
Today, I found out my mother cleans the dishes with bathroom cleaning chemicals. She doesn't see anything wrong with this. FML
Today, my mom was criticizing how I can't handle taking care of any living thing because I'm too irresponsible. We had a huge argument so I went back to my apartment, only to find that my fish had died. I forgot I had a fish. FML
Today, I woke up and checked my fish tank. I thought the temperature was too low, so half asleep, I turned it up. Now all my fish are dead. FML
Today, I wanted to do something nice for my mom. So, while she was sleeping, I cleaned the whole house for her and even made her breakfast. A few minutes later, she came downstairs and yelled at me to keep it down because she was trying to sleep. FML
Today, my mom is on vacation and I’m taking care of her pets. I also get to clean the entire house. No, she didn’t ask me to do that. It’s just that I had to hold my breath every time I opened the fridge, and there is no surface clean enough to actually touch, so I simply couldn’t help myself. FML
Today, I was called gross by my mother for not cleaning my bathroom. I normally clean it every day, but today it looked clean, and I really needed a break. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

@ #20 Why exactly is that? I called him a dumbass for not cleaning his tank. If your going to have pets then you gotta take care of them. Or was the prick comment to the fact that some fish died from chlorine instead of dying months earlier of a much slower suffocation? Asshole! There ya go. Even now. You want to up the ante? ;-)

@Jimboom You're just a prick for killing fish for no reason. I liked your comment on the "Jackson FML" mind . . . So your back on level terms.

a friend of mine did something similar to my fish. she thought the fish tank needed water, so she poured a bottle of sprite in. you have my sympathies.

Totally your fault. Were they your mom's fish? Does she do everything else for you too? Wipe your bottom after you go potty? Loser. This should be a lesson to you to take some responsibility for yourself. Your fish didn't deserve this, but you sure did.

Agreed. Maybe not in such strong words, but YDI. If the tank was freaking green you obviously could have done it before it got to that point instead of procrastinating and then just getting your mom to do it. Yeah, that was stupid on OP's mom's part, but she shouldn't have had to do it in the first place. F your fish's life. I would say to be more responsible next time, but I personally don't think you should get another pet until you can take care of it yourself.
