Lose-lose situation

By suckerrrrr - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I bought a top, along with some other things. I went to the restroom and had diarrhea, but there was no toilet paper in the stall. I had to use the receipt from the store. I then realized the clerk hadn't put the top in the bag. I needed that receipt to get the top. FML

That's just really crappy situation. Sucks.

That's why you check before using the toilet :). But a receipt?? Really?? That wouldn't even do much good... with diarrhea, you have to wipe like a billion times :P. I would've just waited until a person came in lol.

No ones forcing you to use toilet paper.. You can survive without using it.

If you hadn't said "diarrhea" I'd believe you. Whenever somebody has a poop related FML, they ALWAYS have diarrhea. They use that explanation not because it's true but because it makes the FML more funny. However, it's an unnecessary detail and leads me to believe the story is made up. Really, diarrhea was funny when I was in third grade. Stop putting it in made-up FMLs. It's already unlikely enough that you'd not notice the cashier skipping the top, AND that there was no TP, AND that you were somehow able to wipe with a receipt, AND that the cashier would need the receipt considering the top should be sitting right on the counter. Adding "diarrhea" is too much, and reeks of contrivance.

if they didnt have diareah there would be no fml. the average person can hold their shyt at least til they get home. having diareah tells us they were unable to hold it thus causing a string of unfortunate events.

prettty sure #3 meant to say #2 cause its pretty obvious #2 made a pun....

YDI because you really should've noticed that the cashier hadn't put your top in the bag. And YDI because either you look for toilet paper first, or use your socks or something.

If you had *diarrhea* you could wipe that all with one receipt? How big was that?? I say YDI for wiping with a receipt when it's not even enough to wipe yourself normally... you could have waited for someone else to use the washroom so you could have nicely asked them to pass you some TP from another stall under the door... how hard is that? :o Very funny though :) But definitely must have sucked.

#52- Believe it or not, sometimes people do have diarrhea. It may be made up (considering a great number of FMLs probably are), but JUST because she claimed to have diarrhea you call BS? That's a little stupid. And like other people said, the receipt would have at least gotten some stuff off, and would've been better than nothing. Maybe she tried using multiple things, and the receipt was just one of them. I work at a department store, and our receipts are sometimes a foot long. Things get left out of the bag all the time, and she's definitely not the first person who hasn't received something they payed for. You just sound bitter.

hahaha I'd love to read what happened in the store. "Today I got forgot to put a top in a customer's bag. She came back with a receipt covered in shit demanding her shirt. FML." To which I would say YDI for not doing your job :P

Lol, I agree, I would love to see the clerk's post. Or the janitor's, "Today, I had to unclog a toilet that had shitty receipt paper crammed in it. There was also shit on the stall wall and door. FML"
