Today, my roommate decided to turn off all appliances in the house to "save" electricity. This included the refrigerator. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my roommate read an article about unplugging appliances to save on electricity. Too bad the fucking moron also unplugged the fridge. We came home to a corpse-like stench and a fridge full of moldy food. We were gone for two weeks while the sludge marinated in the California heat. FML
Today, I came back to my dorm to find my roommate forgot to get rid of her massive amounts of cheese before break. She did, however, remember to unplug the refrigerator. FML
Today, my refrigerator defrosted itself. FML
Today, my mom wants to save money on both heating and electricity. Put into practice, this means that the temperature in my room is about the same as that in our fridge. FML
Today, I got home an hour late from to find that my roommate had left the fridge open for the entire 8 hours. The kicker is that I was an hour late because I was at the grocery store, not buying the things that were getting ruined because I thought we had some. FML
Today, I found out that shutting off the heat in the rental property my parents owned was a bad idea. The water froze and the pipes burst, causing the whole kitchen ceiling to fall down. The water ruined the wood floors and the appliances. I turned off the heat to save money. FML
Today, I learned how to make my fridge colder. I felt that what it was set on felt a little warmer than normal, so I turned it down. Now everything in my fridge is frozen. FML
Today, during a storm-related power failure, I jerry-rigged an inverter from my car to supply the essentials. In doing so, I managed to blow up the fridge, smoke and all. The power came back on 5 minutes later. FML
Today, my mother called me "wasteful" because I left the refrigerator door open and that "electricity money doesn’t grow on trees." This is the same person who lets my little sister have her light on all night, because she’s scared of the dark. FML
Today, the city shut off the water at my house because my roommate thought that the water bills he had been hoarding were "suggestions." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

9- Actually, if you look at his comment again, then look at the FML, there's a pun. SHOCKING as in surprising and SHOCKING as in no electricity. Not a very good pun, in fact I thumbed it down too, but just think before you make comments like that.

All that money you save on the energy bill can pay for the food you now need to buy

2: Today I learned that cottage cheese was invented by an idiotic roommate with delusions of environmentalism.

Hah! I just came back from visiting my younger brother, who is in hospital with food poisoning. His drip machine was faulty. It wasn't due to lack of electricity though. Lack of nurses able to fix it.

Dumbass roommate. Idk about you, but between me and my roommates, if this ever happened (food spoiling), whoever was responsible has to pay for the food that spoiled.

Make him buy all the food to replace what he spoiled. I don't think he'll make the same mistake again.

The only thing this room mate needs to be "saving" is all those precious braincells.

The amount that you would save on the electric bill , would hardly cover the cost of food . I suggest that you make your roommate pay the next food bill, as well as pay to replace all of your food. Good luck OP .
