Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my little sister was using my phone to play games. About an hour later, she came to me and said my phone wouldn't work. Turns out my phone had gotten hot and she put it in water to cool it down. FML

Today, I woke up to my living room covered in 8 cm of water. My $2k computer was on that floor. FML

Today, I returned to work after a restful week-long holiday. Before I left, I'd finished a huge assignment which is due this week. I walk in to find a water pipe has burst just above my desk, flooding our office with water and ruining my computer. Happy New Year to me. FML

Today, while working on my laptop, I accidentally spilled a glass of water. I quickly moved my laptop out of the way of the oncoming stream. It fell on the floor and broke. FML

Today, after five months of working overtime and doing my own repairs around the house, such as patching my own roof to save money, I walk into my home office. I find my $2500, week old, top of the line laptop won't turn on because it's drenched in water. Apparently there's a leak in the roof. FML

Today, I returned home to find out that my new and very expensive computer had overheated. I confronted my mom, and she told me that she had covered up the fan because she didn't like the noise. FML

Today, I rushed home after my mom called saying our upstairs had flooded. Apparently, my little brother somehow broke the toilet while unsupervised and water overflowed everywhere. It even reached my closet, shoes, and books, and everything touching my floor in my room is now wet. FML

Lint kills
Today, after I was away for a couple of days, my wife told me she’s been doing laundry while I was gone. I'd reminded her to clean out the lint catcher because it might catch fire. I came home to a new dryer and a smoke damaged house. FML

Like what you've done with the place
Today, I came home from work to find my house was flooded from a broken pipe under the sink. My house had just recently had new wood floors, carpet and electrics installed because 6 months earlier my house had been flooded by the same pipe breaking. FML

You should thank your sister for saving your computer's life. Smoking will ******* kill you.

Okay as crazy as it sounds, she was only trying to help. It sucks that you will have to buy a new computer now but it's not the end of the world.

It's possible that she saved your house and the lives of people in it. Computers can and do catch fire. Sure, water isn't the smartest idea, but how was she supposed to know -- I'm guessing she's pretty young. Assume that your computer was ruined before the incident, pull the hard drive, and move on with life!

Yeah, could be that the CPU cooler stopped working or fell off the CPU or something. Motherboards are supposed to have over-temperature and fan RPM sensors in them to help guard against that, but they aren't always reliable either. OP, your sister could very well have saved the house from burning down. Be grateful, or at least don't disbelieve her out of hand.
