Today, while changing a light bulb, I was electrocuted. I screamed before I blacked out. My entire family was home and heard me scream, but didn't come and check because they were too busy watching Glee. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I tried to hang up a light and, in my clumsiness, got shocked. My dad started screaming at me for yelling out. FML
Today, I almost burned the house down while changing a lightbulb. FML
Today, I was replacing some outlets for work and I got surprise-electrified. I threw my wire strippers in the air while yelling, "Oh fuck me." The homeowner and his 2 kids were standing 3 feet away. He was not happy. FML
Today, whilst showing my kids how to replace a light bulb safely, I gave myself and electric shock, and dropped the bulb. Twice in a row. In hindsight I should have let my husband do all the DIY-based educating, since I now have a glass shard in my big toe. FML
Today, I was moving into my new house. While trying to turn on the light in the bedroom, I realized I couldn't reach the string on the fan. I got a chair, climbed up, reached over, and fell badly. While writhing in agony on the floor, I looked over to see a light switch on the wall. FML
Today, I managed to electrocute myself on a plug socket while I was showing a group of trainee electricians how not to electrocute themselves while rewiring a plug socket. FML
Today, while showering I slipped and fell, taking down the shower curtain and smashing my head against the floor, resulting in a concussion. My family came running because of the noise and I lay naked, bleeding and concussed for few minutes before they could stop laughing enough to get me help. FML
Today, I was lying in bed, staring at the ceiling with the lights off. It was 1AM and I'd just finished watching a scary movie so I was a little paranoid. I was about to fall asleep when an eerie light lit the room. I jumped, got tangled in the sheets, and hit my head against the bed frame. Where'd the light come from? Not a space ship. Not someone breaking in. It was my phone. FML
Today, the lights went out at the gym while I was holding a heavy bar. I tried to put it back on the rack, missed, and dropped it on my toe. Then, as I was limping around in pain, I hit my head on one of the other bars on a rack at head height. FML
Today, I was in the shops and the lights all of a sudden went out. I got really scared for no reason because it was pitch black and grabbed onto my mum's hand. When the light's got turned on I was holding on to a random guy's hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Glee contributes to making television what it is - the idiot box

No. It's the magical box of truth.

Back off Glee. Least the people on there have TALENT; you just hate on them all day like a buttmunch. So, yeah. Be jealous. The show itself is about facing adversity and having the confidence to be yourself no matter what anyone says or thinks.

Glee is awesome. Its a show that is all about overcoming your fears and having confidence, two thinks you obviously lack if you do nothing but troll on other people who actually have talent.

Do look up the meaning of electrocuted. If you were electrocuted, then both Glee and your family shouldn't be a problem anymore!
dbss11 3
lol I think OP meant to say he was zapped

I was going to make a similar comment, nice to know there are some people who know what words mean. And just to clear it up; electrocuted means you died from it. Kind like you couldn't post an fml about drowning while your family watched glee.
enonymous 9
Watching any episode of Glee is it's own electrocution. By the time the opening intro comes on you've made your peace and are ready to throw the switch yourself.

I think that drowned implies death but when drowning you are still alive and can be saved :)

That's what my brother always corrects me on haha

how did you know they didn't come check on you if you passed out after you screamed??

I would think that if someone had come to check on him, they would probably still be there when he woke up. If you see someone who got hit by electricity, you don't just keep going on your merry way.

Someone gets shocked and blacks out. Other person sees unconscious person on the floor and just walks by. That mental image made me smile pretty hard. Like this XD

101, what if the commercials are over and Glee is coming back on?

Your family sure has their priorities straight.

I know if The View, Oprah, Dr Phil or Dr Oz is on anyone around me during that time needs to figure out their own business even if they get shot. No way I'm missing out the 3 tips on how to properly put on eye liner
