Today, I took a shower after I finished typing an important essay I've been working on for days. My computer illiterate mum shut the computer down when I was gone, without saving a thing. When I confronted her, she yelled at me for "wasting electricity". FML

Dude you should always save your shit before you leave the computer. Trust me.

if it was that important, YDI for not having the common sense to save it.

Illiterate means you can't read. Who are you calling illiterate again?

YDI for not saving the file. Who does that?!

How do you work on something that important, for DAYS, and not save it??? Completely YDI.

YDI for not knowing how to click a Save button. And I agree with your mom, stop wasting electricity :)

Should've saved...or had a computer new enough to auto save.

Yeah, unless you are in a tv sitcom, this doesn't happen. The autosave would have saved the majority of your work. Plus who walks away without saving?

I hate FMLS like this about people who do a big long assingment without saving it at all then get pissed when something happens so that the computer is turned off. Is it that ******* hard to click the save button? YDI

That is exactly something my mother would do.

I doubt that.... being fully confident, of course, that you would be smart enough to hit the save button, as soon as you were done so that mom would not even be a possible problem, if the assignment is soooo important.lol

If it was so important you would've saved it before you went to take a shower. When I type an important essay, I save every few sentences. You deserved that one.

YDI for not saving early, saving often, but FYL because your mom is rude and FYL because your word processor apparently doesn't even have a rudimentary recovery function.
