Today, while I was on my laptop, I decided to take a nap. Little did I know that my leg was covering up the cool air intake underneath the machine. I woke up an hour later with a first degree burn on my thigh. From a laptop. FML

Today, I was cleaning my room and set my burnt out light bulb on my computer chair without any second thought. Later, I sat on the chair, the light bulb shattered and I got a huge gash on my butt. FML

Today, while working on my laptop, I accidentally spilled a glass of water. I quickly moved my laptop out of the way of the oncoming stream. It fell on the floor and broke. FML

Today, I decided to be healthy and drink a tall glass of water whilst doing my assignment that is due in three days. I managed to spill the entire glass over my laptop. I flipped it over and used a hairdryer to dry it off. While doing that, I managed to melt my keyboard. FML

Today, I was baking cookies. When I took the tray out of the oven I closed the door, but it bounced back open and hit me in the back of the knees. That caused me to sit down on the hot oven door. I was just wearing my short bathrobe and no underwear. I really burned my ass and um...stuff. FML

Today, I took a quick nap in my car during my lunch break. I'd set an alarm but forgot to turn my car off, having switched the AC on due to the blistering heat. The cool air lulled me to sleep. When I woke up, my boss was knocking on my window. Apparently, I'd knocked the car into neutral and it had rolled into his parking spot. FML

Today, I was taking medicine for my sinus problems and trying to write an essay. I got most of the way done, then unexpectedly fell asleep on my keyboard. When I woke up, my face was wet. I drowned my laptop in my drool. FML

Today, I was laying down on my couch. My friend IM's me on my laptop to watch a video. It turned out that the video was one of those scary pop up's. I got so scared I dropped my laptop. The screen had a big crack. FML

Why was my post (#56) "being a troll"(post 68)? I just said that happens to me quite often, I also dont understand why that makes me stupid.. And I REALLY dont get why this was posted to me.. "if you wanna bitch and moan about something that happened to a friend instead of yourself, have them come on here and put up an FML. noone wants to hear you whine. waahmbulance, srsly." I never mentioned anything about my friend...

How the hell could you comfortably take a nap while literally on your laptop (or perhaps to be more accurate, while your laptop was on you). I've been laptopping for a good while now and it does sometimes make me want to nap, but I... you know... remove my laptop from my person first. Way to fail.

Actually, over a prolonged period of time, first-degree laptop burns can scar. My last laptop had all the intakes/vents/etc. on the bottom of the laptop, all with metal grates, and I had a tendency to use it with, like, shorts on. Those grates get very hot. Even though they were only first-degree burns, after repeated burns in the same place on a semi-regular basis (3-4 times a week), I have scars on my thighs in the basic shape of the grates.
