Today, I faked a sore throat for the school nurse so I could go home early. It took my dad the rest of the school day just to get there to pick me up. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had been sick all day, so to cheer me up my dad drove me to get ice cream. On our way back, we hit a puppy. FML
Today, my mom had an appointment with my teacher after class. She never showed. My teacher ended up driving me home. FML
Today, my boss made me work a longer shift than usual. Not because he needed me in, but just so I'd finish at the same time as his brat of a son, and give him a lift home. FML
Today, I wasn't allowed to work from home, despite being ill enough to just take the day off anyway, all so there could be "someone to answer the phone." The phone didn't ring once all day. FML
Today, while waiting for my mom to pick me up from university, I took out my phone and pretended to talk to someone. I didn't think people still pointed and laughed, but apparently they do when your mom pulls up and shouts, "Stop pretending to talk to someone." FML
Today, I wanted to spend the day cleaning my room. My mom thinks that I was lying just to stay home, so she yelled at me to go to her shop. At the shop, she yelled at me for not being any help. When we got home she yelled at me for having a messy room. FML
Today, while battling a severe flu, I was forced to come to work by my manager. Upon arrival, I discovered that a colleague he likes who should be covering for me is out today. The reason? Her shoes hurt. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house waiting to surprise him when he got home from work. I was laying in his bed when he called to tell me we were over. I couldn't leave before he got home. FML
Today, I finally got a date with one of the hottest girls in school, a perfect 10. Just before I go to pick her up to go to the movies, I called her to find out where she lives. She answered the phone, only to hear my father yelling in the background, "STOP TALKING TO THAT WHORE." FML
Today, I'm so strapped for cash that I smuggled toilet paper out of my mother's house. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for faking sick, but it'll suck to be you when you actually do get sick and it takes all day for your dad to pick you up. Not that this experience will motivate him to hurry in the future...

This would be an FML if you wrote you were dying sick

Lol this happened to me before!

OP + #26 = 2 idiots. Great minds think alike!

I agree. Totally deserved it. Who gets out of school for a sore throat anyways? I don't even see how this made it as an FML. "Today, I tried to get out of school and it didn't work. FML"

Lmfaoooooooooo dats life :P!!

Everyone saying OP is an idiot. I'm sure 90% of us have faked sick before.

60. I'm pretty sure everyone has faked sick, but a sore throat? Really? You can get that from anything from gargling sand to sucking ****. You don't need to be sick to have a sore throat

That is true

#26-- BANG! Although I don't actually know what kind of face that is. Maybe she has too much food in her mouth?

110- ya I'm thinking the same but even in that grade if I wanted to go home early I just left and either bussed or walked instead of possibly forcing my father to leave work for a fake illness. Idk though, maybe that's just me.

Woah! You get to go home for a sore throat? Our school nurses motto is, " drink more water" shell give you a cup of water and send you back. You have to have practically a fever or worse to go home..

More like dumbass, he won't be smart if he keeps skipping like that.
olpally 33
Yeah... You deserve it for trying to ditch school... Idiot...

OP did it completely wrong. You fake being sick before you get to school - not after you're already there.
VictoriaSchultz 8
Obviously still a beginner!
Rose_916 16
Maybe the nurse noticed OP was faking therefore told OP's dad to come at the end of the school day but ethier way YDI for trying to skip

Wow everyone FML must be angels, as if you all haven't skipped school or work at least once! If you haven't, live a little haha.

I guess I'm the only one who's been bad (:

Yup been there done that

Kinda selfish to make him take off work to pick you up when you weren't really sick. Couldn't you just daydream in class if you're that bored?

Agreed
