Today, with 24 inches of snow on the ground, it is raining like hell. The weight of the snow, now full of rain water, collapsed the roof over my living room. I was eating cereal in my underwear, in the living room, directly under the failure. I'm cold. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was very cold and tired, so I took a shower to warm up and went to bed. The minute I hopped into bed, it collapsed and broke. I have spent half-an-hour rearranging furniture to get the mattress on to the floor. Now I'm cold again. FML
Today, I woke up to a quite frigid room, which wasn't out of the ordinary since my building's heat is broken. But I realized that the extra cold I was feeling was due to the snow piled up on my bed. It had snowed 20 inches last night. My mom had apparently opened my window. FML
Today, as I left my house, the front door slammed shut behind me, causing an entire roof-length of snow to slide over the edge and land directly on my head. FML
Today, the men clearing the walkway outside my dorm room with a snowblower didn't realize that my window was open. I looked over from my computer to see snow shooting in, covering my clock, closet, and radio. Now it's melting. FML
Today, I jumped into a pile of snow which had built up against a wall. Turns out it wasn't snow but a pile of cement covered by an inch of snow. I now have a 3 inch cut along my leg and a sprained wrist from falling. FML
Today, I got snowed in. At work. FML
Today, the weather man announced that today's forecast will include heavy rain and hail in my city. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal. However, my house has no roof at the moment. FML
Today, I got a phone call to say my workplace was closed due to extreme weather conditions. Looking forward to my day off, I then realised the boiler was broken and my house has no heating despite there being a foot of snow outside. I'm spending the day in bed, wearing all my clothes. FML
Today, I came home to my bed and most of my room soaking wet. This morning, my mom thought it would be "smart" to warm up my room by opening the skylight above my bed. There were heavy showers all day today. FML
Today, the toilet on the top floor of my house burst, soaked the bathroom, and water dripped down into the kitchen and the basement for hours when nobody was home. Eight blowers and a dehumidifier later, the house is about 90 degrees and I can't leave. FML

That sucks OP . I hope things get better for you. But I'm glad you are able to keep your humor:) I like the way you wrote the fml!

Just thinking about it makes me cold...

I live in Connecticut. All the newscasters and the governor told everybody to get there snow off the roof because of the rain. I'm sure they said the same for Mass. so I might have to say ydi on this one
no_lungs 16
they did tell everone in mass to do the same but clearly OP had more pressing matters at hand like what cereal to eat
Lionesse 15
Hey, sometimes Cereal is so good you get into it. Then you forget to you know, prepare for inconvenient weather.

It was pretty bad here too in Northern Michigan. Coming home yesterday the roads were just ice. I touched the gas and it just skid. Worst I have drove in all year.
ohcoolstorybro 14
My car was under 8 feet because the wind blew all the snow onto it
gc327072 31

BradyT918 9
Haha. It's been around 20 degrees where I live. Which is 45-50 degrees warmer then it has been in the past month.
bfsd42 20
It's pretty cold here in San Diego too. I mean, I had to wear long pants and a sweater to stay warm yesterday.
NoFlippinWai 24
I live in Northern MI, Too. I worked a 3rd shift that night. Slipped on the way out to my car, got stuck in the driveway at work, shoveled out the driveway just to have to push the car into the driveway because of the ice. worst day ever.

Ain't nobody got time for what, exactly?
DocBastard 40
I have no time for stupid, meaningless comments.
ProjectN69 12
@eddeeezzy Ain't nobody got time to clean up a pile of icy snow in their living room, that's what.
FireNinja 3
I see what you did there. "Ain't nobody got time for that" by miss brown... Lol, classic, those who thumb it down are idiots .
hannaaaahr 33
I'm sure pretty much everyone got what 7 'did there', it just didn't really seem like a comment that corresponded with the FML
klutz44 28
And that phrase is (sadly) so overused.

Because? You start eating cereal in your underwear, you finish eating cereal in your underwear.

Step 1: Use capitalization. Step 2: Use punctuation.
