Today, I woke up after a long night of trying to catch a moth. I'd knocked down furniture and screamed up the house to do so, but I finally got it. What did I see first thing this morning? Another moth. FML

Today, I got up and started getting ready for work. As I entered the bathroom, I noticed a moth in the shower. Feeling generous, I caught the moth in a cup and took it to the front porch. I released the moth and watched it fly away… into a giant spider and its web. FML

Today, a moth was flying around my house. Annoyed, I picked up a shoe to crush it with. The moth landed on a light fixture on the ceiling, so I made my move. Dead, the moth slipped gracefully through air and onto my head. So did the light fixture. FML

No good deed…

Today, I saw a moth trapped in a spider web. Feeling gracious, I gently freed it, and then took it to the window to let it out. When I opened the window to set him free, my $300 air conditioner fell two stories and smashed on the sidewalk. The moth flew away. FML

Night terrors

By Si123 - 15/08/2020 08:01

Today, after a long day at work, I was ready to wind down for the night. I sat on my bed and turned towards a fluttering on my left. I saw the biggest daddy-longlegs inches from my face, jumped in the other direction, forgetting there was a wall, and hit my head on it. I'm now officially wide awake. FML

Mothman is real

Today, there's a moth in my house, who either does nothing, or flies around like it just ate enough sugar for one lifetime. Every time I see it, I think it's a wasp and, being deathly afraid of them, I go into a full-blown panic attack until the sight of it bumping into light bulbs brings me back to reality. FML

Today, I woke up to a huge, disgusting bug next to my bed. As I tried to squish it, it suddenly flew off at high speed. Now I'm lying in bed, awake and terrified because I can hear it buzzing around but can't see it anywhere. FML

Today, I put up one of those hanging fly catchers in my room due to the unsettling amount of flies in the house. I remarked how stupid flies were to land on them. Within an hour, I got up and walked straight into it. FML

Not funny, guys

By livgasms - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom

Today, my family decided it would be hilarious to catch the biggest moths they could and let them loose in my room. I'm terrified of moths and they thought it would be "funny as hell" to watch me freak out. FML

Today, I've been awake since 3 a.m. Why? A bat flew into the house and made its way to my bedroom. We haven't been able to find it. FML

Today, I noticed an extremely large bug buzzing around my room. After several attempts, I stomped on it with my shoe. I was trying to get a closer look at my victory when it flew into my nostril. Turns out it was just playing dead. FML

Deodorant, chlorine gas, water, blow torch, flame thrower, ice, towel, spatula, guns, cereal box, lasers, hand, finger, kick, crisp packet, a sock, a phone, a dead person, a shampoo bottle and tic tacs. Use one of them, and you will succeed.

I always keep a cereal box under my pillow, just in case I need to defend myself against an intruder.

Okie dokie lets see if I have got this down. First,I stay Moth so it smells nice and will now sweat as I gas it.i then half down it but warn it up with a blow torch then give it extra with the flame thrower. I have made it to hot,so dump it in ice and wrap in a towel. It falls unconcious so I smack it with the spatula,fire a gun to wake it up,give it a tempory home in a cereal box,Lazar some windows into it,use my hand and fingers to tear door for it and kick a crispacket while doing so,just because I felt like it.

I am aware of the general nature of a moth. What I don't understand is how the OP could consider it worth spending the night trashing the place for the sake of killing one. They are not, so far as I am aware, cutpurses, child abductors, venomous blood-suckers or carriers of the Black Death, so what's the probelm? PS. OP - next time try lighting a candle.
