Today, my landlady cut off the Internet to my flat. She says she has no use for it, and doesn't want to keep it anymore. I have 3 online assignments due in the next week, and finals the following week. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my dick of a roommate was moving out. She didn't actually tell us she was moving out and took the wifi, modem and all, while my other roommate was on a Skype call and I was watching a show. All with no warning. It's Saturday, I have an online assignment due Sunday. FML
Today, I turned in my final worth 20% of the grade. Today was also the day my internet decided to die. FML
Today, my parents canceled the Internet at our house because they view it as a "passing fad." FML
Today, my landlord informed me that after 8 months, we are finally getting cable and internet in our house. I move out tomorrow. FML
Today, the Internet wasn't working. One girl decided to try to diagnose the problem. It said to connect the Ethernet cable. She started making fun of the computer for spelling "Internet" wrong. I'm graduating with this idiot in less than a month. FML
Today, my husband cancelled our internet and cable package because we’re having money problems. I work from home and need the internet to do so. I guess getting a job of his own wasn’t an option. FML
Today, my mother found out about the psychology exam I have to take tomorrow. Before leaving for her vacation this morning, she grabbed the internet router and took it with her to "get rid of distractions". I have one day to figure out how to access this online exam without Internet. FML
Rushed
Today, my laptop is choosing not to work and I can’t afford a new one. If it doesn’t work soon, I can’t get my homework done. I’m only week 3 into an 8 week semester. To top it off, I need to finish unpacking. Did I forget to mention I moved about 3 days before the semester started? FML
Today, my manager asked me for the password to my Internet so she could Skype family since she can't pay her bill. This is the same woman who just a week ago tried to evict me because my rent was an hour late. Trying to be the bigger person, I gave her the password. She changed my password. FML
Ongoing crisis
Today, I found out my dad got Covid after spending the weekend at home. All my classes have me doing final projects, and my dorm's internet is a dumpster fire. FML

your landlord is a bitch.

That sucks but call the provider and put the Internet service in your name. They'll come out the same day or the next day and set up your service. Problem solved.

Well, I hope it was mentioned in your lease! What ever it costs to set it up for yourself, show her and have that amount removed from your rent! If not I guess your going to Starbucks and the public library. Sucks!

if you signed a contract and that was part of it she is legally obligated to keep it on. if it wasn't and you were sneaking hers than ydi.

OP, Grow up and pay your own bills. Your mom... Err um i mean... your "Landlady" doesn't have to support you any more. Property Owners have no legal control of the utilities over a legit rental property when rented to an actual Tenant. If what you say is true as you said it, she can't legally do anything to the internet if it's your utility and she can be sued. And you aren't responsible to pay your rent until the utility is restored. Looser.

How come your landlady is providing your net connection? Everywhere I've stayed, the contract is in my name.

It really amazes me how inconsiderate some people are. Just because SHE has no use for internet doesn't mean everyone else that lives under her name, don't. FYL, man. Go to the library and good luck!

I suggest you start making use of the University library.
