Today, I was drinking from a cup with a built-in straw. After taking a long sip, I noticed a weird taste. Upon investigation, I found a small caterpillar wedged inside the straw. FML

Today, I was drinking lemon juice through a straw. After finishing half of the drink, I noticed there was a cockroach in my straw. FML

Today, I bit into a cereal bar and thought the inside was oddly damp. I took a look at it and saw a maggot worm wriggling around. Its friend was in my mouth. FML

Today, I took a swig of lemonade from my cup, only to feel something hard in my mouth. Thinking it was a roach or something, I freaked out and spat out the drink. I doused my laptop and soaked myself in the process, only to find out it was a small ice-cube. FML

Dead bug walking

Today, I was about to take a drink from my cup when I saw a bug making its way along the lid. When I saw it going down into the drink, I quickly ripped off the lid to stop it. I wasn't fast enough, and watched it drown. Thanks for that. FML

Today, I noticed a thick layer of mold growing inside the straw of my water bottle. I use that bottle every day. FML

Today, I was dumping some old milk in the sink and noticed it wasn't going down. Assuming food was clogging the drain, I stuck my hand down in it to remove the food. I removed a blueberry and half a cockroach. FML

Today, I bit into a Reese's Cup that had been sitting on my desk for a while. As I did, half of a yellow meal worm fell out and landed in front of me, the other half was in my mouth. It was wiggling. FML

Today, I had a sip of my coffee and felt a lump of some kind enter my mouth. I thought it was a bit of biscuit, and then remembered I didn't have biscuits this morning with my coffee. I took it out of my mouth and it was a huge black fly. I then spat the rest of my coffee all over my laptop. FML

Today, I was eating a bowl of cereal and noticed something float to the top. On closer inspection, it turned out to be a mouse turd. I had already eaten half the bowl. FML

Sucking up a possibly poisonous/nasty catapillar doesn't seem like a good idea to me. I doubt OP is on Man vs. Wild, so he doesn't need the nutrition either.

Sugary drinks attract bugs...better than a hornet or a bee right?

Today, my friends talked me into getting on a new ride at the water park, but I became lodged in and had to be removed with suction. FML

Imagine what the situation was like from the caterpillar's perspective!

That's gross. But that has me wondering....are there any butterflies in other cups/straws?

When I read the FML, I thought, "Isn't there a kid's song about this very thing?" I couldn't remember it exactly, so I was hoping someone else would post about it. Thanks! :-) When I helped teach little ones, we'd teach them this song (and other fun songs like the baby bumblebee song).
