Today, I realized why my sister refuses to let me clean her side of the room. She's secretly been trying to revive dead ants. FML

Today, I woke up to the sight of a dead fly on my bedside table, being eaten by a swarm of ants. I screamed so bad that my dad said he thought my sister was being murdered in my room. FML

Today, I sprayed down some ants in my house. In the sea of ant corpses was a single living ant seemingly cradling a dead one in its arms. I'm convinced I just became the villain in an epic tragedy. Now I have to live with my ant problem because I can't bear to tear another family apart. FML

Today, I tried to motivate my 9-year-old sister to clean her room. She said she'd only agree if she could kill me. Thinking she was just kidding around, and not a total psychopath, I said sure. She ran to her room shouting, "Yes! I'm gonna use the big knife!" She's still cleaning now. FML

Today, I learned that the "nasty smell" in my room, which I cannot detect, does not exist. It was just my stepmother trying to make me go insane deep-cleaning my room for her personal amusement. FML

Today, when I got back to my dorm, I found a trail of ants trying to shove a dead roach into a power outlet. The front desk insists that there is no pest problem. FML

Today, I finally found out why my fish were dying in their tank. My younger sister had been spraying detergent in there because she wanted "to make the fish smell like lemons". FML

Today, my daughter left a plate of food in her room for two hours. When I yelled at her about ants, her response was, "But I thought it took DAYS for ants to show up!" I raised this dumbass. FML

Today, I found thousands of ants in a secret nest in an unused corner of my apartment. They were feeding on the baking mix I forgot in a box from moving in two months ago, and the queen has been laying her eggs on my wireless router. FML

And how does she think she's going to achieve that?

How was she trying to revive them? Was there a mini ER or an ant hospital? I cant wrap my mind around this.

What did the Pink Panther say when he stepped on an ant? "Dead ant, dead ant, dead ant, dead ant, dead ant, dead ant, dead ant, da, da, dead ant." **Sorry! I had a Kindergarten joke flashback! I'm sure others remember this old joke.

I completely forgot about that joke until I read this blast from the past.

I used to do that, I made a little tray full of sand for my 'ant grave yard' and buried green ants in it. Once one mustn't have been dead and scared the bejeebus out of me because I thought I'd actually created a zombie ant xD

If she's "secretely" trying to do that, how did you discovered it? Anyway, everyone here keep saying that's disturbing/weird/creepy, but i think OP's sister must be a kid, and kids do this kind of stuff. Clearly, if she's an adult, well...yes, it's creepy. How old is she?

She can't be wishy-washy in her quest to revive dead ants because nothing will happen. However, she can bring them back to life if she's Adam Ant about it. Antmusic, oy, oy, oy, oy!

She ant playing around with these ants. It's real necromant-cy. If she succeeds she may take over the world with her banttallion of tiny G.I. ants. World dominantion!!!

I was hoping someone would make an Adam Ant reference sooner or later. Brilliant.

She might be working for the Umbrella Corporation.

One does not simply realize that a roommate is trying to revive deceased insects. There must have been communication of some sort taking place.

Today, I found out two things about my new cat: One, he is afraid of thunder. Two, his reaction to hearing a loud thunderclap is to jump very high in the air with his claws extended, then run like hell. I discovered this when he jumped and landed right on my face. My face now looks like I smashed it into a window. FML

Today, I took my 8 year-old daughter to an airplane museum to show her the kinds of aircraft I’ve worked on during my 30+ year career. In the first 15 minutes, I had grease on my new shirt, bumped my head, spilled coffee and cut my hand. Sums up my career. Only 10 more years to go. FML
