Today, my teenage daughter nearly burned down our house because she wanted to take "artsy" pictures with a lighter for Instagram. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my daughter somehow got a hold of the lighter we keep on top of the fridge. I found this out when she snuck up behind me and thought it would be fun to set my hair on fire. FML
Today, my daughter threw a can of hairspray into the fireplace because she saw someone do it on YouTube. FML
Today, my 16-year-old daughter burned all her baby photos because they were unflattering and made her "look fat". FML
Today, I came home to find my eight-year-old son had basically set fire to the kitchen, after trying to practice some kind of stupid shit he'd seen on TV called "fire bending." FML
Today, I wanted to impress my girlfriend with a cool fire breathing trick I learned online, and ended up burning half her room. FML
Today, my daughter tried to cover up her relapse into pyromania by explaining to me that the reason our carpet caught on fire was because a hot coal somehow worked its way free from the fireplace. Our fireplace is electric. FML
Today, I almost burned the house down while changing a lightbulb. FML
Today, my mom tried to burn my arm with a hot spatula, all because I got a tattoo against her wishes. FML

Hahahaha I actually laughed out loud at the thought of this. Cheesy pop punk music playing in the background, stereotypical popular girl cooking, holding a lighter, and taking pics for Instagram and then chaos ensues. The opening credits roll

Instagram is so utterly pointless... a cascade of mundane, unimpressive photos taken with fancy filters that no one truly cares about. I deleted mine several months back; haven't regretted it since. :)

I have to wonder: was she really almost burning the house down or did she just light up a light and you got paranoid? Some people are like that.

Wondering the same thing. I've been yelled at for similar 'almost' things where the reality came nowhere near the fantasy of the person doing the yelling.

The price of raising a hipster! ;-)

hipsters do not usually use instagram, because instagram is too "mainstream " .. The kid is probably just one of those stupid teens that will do anything for internet recognition.
