Today, while packing my luggage from vacation I thought I saw a penny drop into my bag. After looking everywhere I couldn't find it. Now that I am home I found out that I had mistaken a cockroach for a penny. I now have a family of cockroaches living in my luggage. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was taking a final exam and I reached into my pocket to get out a pencil. I felt this thing in my pocket so I got it out and put it on the desk. At first I thought it was a leaf but then it started kicking and trying to run around. It was a cockroach. It had been living in my pocket. FML
Today, I found a New Year's surprise: a cockroach in my kitchen drawers. FML
Today, I was expecting lizards, spiders, and weird local insects in my hotel room. What I got was a cockroach on my toothbrush. A very tiny cockroach. FML
Today, I put my house shoes on without socks, but felt a rock in them. I shook it free and out dropped a half-crushed roach. FML
Today, as I was driving, a massive cockroach clicked its way across my windshield. I pulled over to fling it out the window, but it spread its wings and flew around like a hook-armed stabbing machine. I lost it in the dark car and now I can't find it. It's going to be a long drive home. FML
Today, I found out that the small bugs I've been blowing off my pillow all year are in fact baby cockroaches. I discover this when I found two full grown ones crawling around and decided to Google it. FML
Today, I found a roach in my takeaway. I found it after I felt something hard in my mouth and spat pieces of it back out onto my plate. FML
Today, I woke up with a cockroach in my ear. FML
Today, I bought a Santa hat. After wearing the hat for a few hours, I noticed a strange lump near the tip of it. I stuck my hand inside to dig out the mysterious object. It was a dead cockroach. FML
Today, my apartment was flooded due to a broken pipe, which caused a huge family of cockroaches to disperse. Did you know they can fly? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why were you searching that much for a penny, anyway?

I would probably do all of the above, but instead of laughing, I'd cry and twitch. Cockroaches. Ewwww!!!!

I'm with 25 hhaha I'd bug out if I had a family of roaches on any of my stuff. I wouldn't even think about dousing that's bit in gasoline and burning the whole thing down

Lock the suitcase in a small room and bomb it with those smoke bombs. If you just unpack it like nothing happened your house will probably become infested :(

The cockroach was like, "My bus!! Hah! caught it." They learned from us, the ways of fast travelling. xD

Every penny counts, op takes that literally,

OP's Jewish faith is stronger than ever after Passover last weekend.

Clearly, OP didn't search that hard because they didn't find the cockroach!

In Op's case she should of searched more for that "penny" but I don't know it might be hard to find a running penny?!

That is exactly what I was thinking. If I saw a penny fall in there I would be like whatever.

I can't stand loose change in my bags. Don't know why. So I'd do what op did. After reading this ill be even more likely to.

No? I thought everyone loved cockroaches. Thank you for your ever so needed comment about your distaste in cockroaches.

Shouldn't this read "mistaken a cockroach for a penny"?

Maybe a "hostel"?

Nope, just the cockroach hotel.

Roaches are worse
courtz94 24
I agree roaches are worse..but spiders are gross too.
Big_Chives 7
I can't decide which is worse.
Pandacupcakelove 26
No way! Spiders are much worse! Eight freaking looong legs! Ewwww!
sammy_mojo 7
I agree, spiders are 10 times worse. Roaches are gross but I can deal with them, spiders on the other hand...I hate being that chick who runs from spiders but that's how it goes lol Even so, I would prefer spiders to centipedes! I hate those things!
bmwguy01 8
Point made spiders suck! Cockroaches are gross!
Cheesecakee 11
But spiders are everywhere...roaches aren't..

61 - "roaches suck, but I can deal with them" WTF!?
sammy_mojo 7
79 - I can deal with them as in I can kill them, I would be able to touch the luggage to throw it away. If they were spiders I probably wouldn't be able to go into that room until I knew they were all dead lol
