Today, I'd stayed up all night to finish a detailed report. By the time I'd printed it I was late for work so I jumped in my car. Driving down the street, I saw my papers fly off the roof of my car. It was raining out. FML

Today, I have a busy week scheduled at work, so I took my file home to smash out some reports. Naturally I did not do any work at home and then I also forgot to take the file back to work the next day. Instead of saving time, I wasted an hour driving home to collect it. FML

Irony at a base level

Today, I was standing around looking out the window at work when it became really dark and windy and started to pour. I watched a shopping cart fly across the parking lot thinking how funny it'd be if it hit someone's car. It hit mine. I need a new headlight. FML

Today, my entire region received record rainfall, with torrential downpours all day and night. Today was also the day I discovered my car's sunroof leaks, when I was greeted with two inches of standing water in my floorboards. FML

Today, I lost control of my car on a patch of ice and slid off the road, messing up my car. I was working on a news story about bad road conditions. FML

Today, my car died after I got off work at 1am. All of my coworkers had already left and nobody could come out to jump my car. I had to walk the 3 miles home in a torrential downpour. FML

Today, I got off from work and noticed that the weather finally warmed up after the recent snowstorm. I hopped into my car and rolled down the windows. When I opened the sun roof, a foot of snow came falling into my car. FML

Soaked

Today, I got into my car to go to work and discovered that my seat, seat-belt, door, and all the electronics in the door were wet. Apparently I hadn't wound the window all the way up, and it rained last night. I'm now sitting at my desk typing this with a wet bum. FML

Today, a co-worker called in sick due to a family emergency. I ended up working an unplanned 12-hour overnight shift. After I clocked out, I dragged myself out to the parking lot to go home. Someone had smeared tacos all over my car. FML

Funny how?

Today, I drove to a party after getting my car back from the shop. A thunderstorm started as I made my way there and upon arriving, the power went out. The guests decided to watch the storm from the front windows when someone mentioned how funny it would be if a tree fell on my car. Seconds later, one did. FML

Today, I woke up to find myself drenched in piss after a long night of drinking. I immediately sprang into action, tossing my bedding in the washer and hopping into the shower. Running late for work, I threw on a nice dress and got into my car. Guess who also peed in the drivers seat? FML

If it was raining, why would you put the papers on the roof of your car?

Just how did the papers fly outside if it was raining? You do lock your windows, do you?

"Fly off the roof". The windows weren't even mentioned

Since you are relatively new to commenting, I'll give you a small tip; read the whole FML carefully before you comment. It will prevent little hiccups like this one. Please note that my intentions by saying this are good and not meant to be rude or hurtful. Have a nice day, and enjoy your time on FML :)

How was I being rude? I said it as nice as possible. And as I stated in my original comment my intentions are not meant to be hurtful. I don't ever intend to be hurtful. But I am sorry if what I said offended you, I honestly didn't mean to.

That's what you get for procrastinating

How in the hell would you know that she's procrastinating? You know, sometimes people do this stuff called homework. Where you take papers home from school/work to finish for the NEXT day. They could've been working on that and just took it home to proofread or add details. Think fully before you comment please. Its like telling someone they deserved something horrible solely based on the fact that they were at the wrong place at the wrong time, dumbass.

Yeah but did she have to be a dick? I understand but clearly she didn't look at both aspects just as I didn't. But I didn't write to OP saying mean shit like that. People are assholes. And thank you btw :)

Why not email it to yourself and print it at work? Use their ink and paper.

Wow, I need to go shopping with you. I get the feeling you're a real bargain/sale expert. That's cool xD very efficient. And reminds me of the FML where the boyfriend spends the night with his girlfriend to save gas because he's closer to work (in a good way).

I hope you saved your work and could've just gone back and reprinted it. But since you're writing this FML I highly doubt it. Save/Save/Ctrl+S is your best friend OP, use it constantly! After you write a sentence a quick Ctrl+S instantly saves changes. But the best I can tell you is to take in the wet pages and request an extended deadline. if they see proof that you actually tried maybe they'll be more forgiving and give you a chance. ;) Good luck and sorry OP.
