Today, my son thought it would be a great idea to spray a whole can of spray tan all over my freshly-painted white bathroom walls as an "experiment". He's 18. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my teenage son tried to huff a can of spray paint. FML
Today, my son thought it was a good idea to spray deodorant into his mouth because he wanted fresh breath. This resulted in him passing out. My son is 17. FML
Today, I had to take my son to the hospital for drinking sunscreen. Apparently, he saw something on the internet that said if he drank it, his body would sweat it out and continually apply it to his body. He's 16. FML
Today, my son sprayed Axe body-spray all over the house in the vain hope of covering up the scent of the joints he'd been smoking. FML
Today, I finally found where the awful lingering stench in my house was coming from. My son thought it would be funny to piss in the baby's humidifier. He's 16. FML
Today, my son sprayed the bottom of my car and windows white with fake snow in Christmas cheer. He did a great job, except he used white spray paint instead of the fake snow. FML
Today, my 15 year-old brother, visiting me for the weekend, thought it would be a great idea to switch my expensive moisturiser for fake tan cream. I'm going to work in 12 hours. I'm fluorescent orange. FML
Today, my sister thought it would be funny to spray my face with my new tanning spray, which is only supposed to be used on arms and legs. I woke up and looked in the mirror to see an orange blotchy face staring back at me. My parents can't look at me without laughing. FML
Today, I came home to find my 14-year-old son attempting to get drunk off aftershave. FML
Today, I had to be treated for chemical burns, because my mother got the bright idea of using paint thinner to clean me up after I'd painted our living room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You now live in the Jersey Shore, or at least from the inside of the house.

Maybe he should have to paint the room while you spray paint his room bright pink as a punishment ;)

Before we jump to conclusions how did it turn out?

Why are all the comments on this FML getting thumbed down?!

You know guys, I used to be an elevator operator. Now there's a job that has its ups and downs!

Science projects these days… "in conclusion, yes, walls can tan."

Maybe he wanted to see if it would work so he could try it?

uh wouldn't you test it on something else first like paper? or a spot on your arm?

#22 yes well obviously this kid is an idiot. But that's most likely what he was doing.
emilyjgraham 34
It's most likely that he tried it out over her parents white walls to see if it would work?... How does that even make sense to an 18 year old? He wasn't using it, it was probably revenge.
emilyjgraham 34
his and bathroom* oops :)

Well the only conclusion from the "experiment" is that your son is a complete moron...

Maybe he was comparing it to the likes of spray paint. Shows how ridiculous it looks.

Are you sure your son isn't 4? Normally wall painting is a toddler problem.

OP, if he's 18, he's old enough to know better. Make him repaint it. That'll make him learn

Give him white spray paint and tell him to try the experiment again.

Screw spray paint. Make him buy another can of white paint and force him to repaint

One does not simply clean up spray tan off of a wall.

Is a sign! He needs to move out and get his own place.

Punishment: dress him like one of those jersey shore idiots, (spray tan, Ed hardy, hair gel, ripped pants...all of it) for the first week of school.
Fml_FTW228 10
He's 18 years old. I at least hope he is still not in school... unless you're talking about college, where she would have no control on how he dressed.

Some places 18 year olds are in their senior year.

12- In a lot of places, 18 year olds are normally in their senior year.

It said my first comment didn't post >:| hope one of the mods removes it.
Fml_FTW228 10
Considering, in the US where the FML was posted, it is summer meaning he would be turning 19 during his senior year if he had already not finished..
kimmi41509 10
Unless he got held back a couple of times..which would explain his stupidity. I know someone who didn't graduate high school until they were 21 because they were held back 2 or 3 times throughout their life.
blubberfish 10
I was 17 when I graduated
emilyjgraham 34
have you ever thought that being an 18 year old he could simply change clothes? because although he's a bit stupid, I think (rather hope), he'd take spare!
JustTemporary 24
Can't get rid of the hair and spray tan.

69, white press powder and a decent bristle brush will do the trick very well.

Honestly, I would've been tempted to do the same thing. Idk why. I wouldn't have though bc I have impulse control.

Experiment....seems like you've got yourself a budding scientist! ;)
SaintT 15
Ummm... Budding? He's 18 shouldn't he already have decided what he's doing? I'm 17 and already have my whole life planned out!!! XD
