Today, I have my first university lecture on lab safety. Having gone out the night before with my house-mates, I have the worst hangover of my life, and have to listen for an hour and a half while they loudly demonstrate the types of alarms we'll hear in different kinds of emergencies. FML

Today, a student set me on fire while I was lecturing my class about proper lab safety. FML

Today, I was supposed to give a presentation to the incoming freshman about the dangers of drinking in college. My co-presenter showed up drunk. FML

Today, I had a nasty cough, but I went to college anyway. When I walked into class, I could practically smell menstrual blood in the air. After a few coughs, our instructor gave me an "Oh, shut up!" After half an hour, she kicked me out for not "taking the class seriously". FML

Today, I went to my first university party already a little drunk. I perched on the end of a table to cool off from the dancing and the whole table tipped over and dumped me onto the floor. I was promptly laughed out of the room. FML

Working too hard!

Today, after spending 6 hours straight working on a project at school, I decided to call it a night. The instant I set foot out of the lab, the building started screaming. The maintenance guy had set the alarm without telling me. The police had to let me out. FML

Today, I woke up at 2 p.m. to realise I'd slept through all of my alarms and missed my really big presentation at university, all because I was up most of the night with food poisoning. FML

Today, I got an e-mail from my University saying I may have violated the Student Code of Conduct for being drunk in public at a football game, and now I have to go in to defend myself against charges. My lungs filled with fluid at the game, causing me to throw up. I had to be taken away in an ambulance. FML

Today, the clock in the study lounge was off, so I was half-an-hour late to class. I was too embarrassed to walk in late, so I sat for the next half-hour with my ear against the door trying to hear the lecture. People stopped to ask if there was something wrong with me. Yeah, probably. FML

Disinformation

By zzyx - 22/09/2009 03:19 - United States

Today, there was a fire alarm in my dorm. Just as I was leaving my room, a lady in the hallway told me that it was a drill and they'd be inspecting rooms, so I would need to leave my door unlocked. When I came back, my room was trashed and my laptop, speakers, and jewelry were gone. FML

Today, my professor gave me a huge lecture in front of the class about showing up sick, about how I was endangering the lives of other students, and kicked me out of class. As I left, everyone applauded. I'm not sick, but suffering for horrible allergies. FML

YDI, without a doubt, it's not like this was a surprise, you knew long before it was coming and yet you still decided to go out drinking

Why is this a fml? This is where your carrier starts, which means you can make money so you can drink once again.

(Disclaimer: For the purposes of not being moderated, all insults will be replaced with overly flattering phrases that are extremely obvious.) If you really must go out drinking, at least pick a more appropriate time, you extremely wonderful, intelligent person. I don't plan to ever drink, and therefore will never see the purpose of it, but if it's that wonderful, don't you have the weekends for that sort of thing, where your hangovers are not nearly as likely to interfere with anything? Not that I would know, because you're clearly a superior being, since you drink...

Hah! I wonder if they do that on purpose knowing that most students probably have hangovers.

OP: "I know that I have this class tomorrow where there will be lots of loud alarms going off. Hmm, I know what sounds like a GREAT idea! Be a friggin idiot and go get drunk, so that way when those alarms sound, I'll have a perfectly righteous hangover to enjoy them with!" YDI for being an idiot.
