Today, my parents threatened to kick me out of the house if I didn’t agree to convert to their new brand of Christianity. This is a day after they ranted at me about how I should speak my mind more and not let myself be controlled by other people. FML
Today, I got ancestry DNA tests for my parents and myself. The DNA testing company informed me that I’m a 50% match for my mother but I share no DNA with my father. Apparently, both my parents forgot that they used a sperm donor. This insignificant detail has slipped their minds for 35 years. FML
Today, my parents took my brother out for dinner and drinks for his 18th birthday. I had to sit at home and do chores, because I’m “too young for these kinds of things.” We’re twins. FML
Today, I had a half-hour conversation with my parents about going to college. I don’t know what’s worse, that they were trying to talk me out of it or that they’re convinced that I’m going to get knocked up and drop out by the end of my freshman year. FML
Today, I told my parents that what I’d really like for my 21st birthday is the 1865 edition of the Memoirs of Saint-Simon in 22 volumes that I found online for $200, and have been wanting for months. They laughed and said, “Yeah, right. We’ll get you an iPhone and perhaps you’ll become normal.” FML
Today, I came out to my parents. They laughed in my face. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. I felt down, so I laid in bed and told my parents I needed some alone time. A couple of minutes later, one of them started blasting “All by Myself” so loud that I felt the floorboards vibrate. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me his Christmas gift to me was custom made. I told my parents in excitement, thinking it could possibly be a ring. Half an hour later he told me what it was; a molded dildo of his penis. It’s going to be an awkward conversation with my parents when they ask what I got. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend’s house when I got a call from my parents. They told me to come home immediately. Panicking, I rushed home. My dad pulled out a clear tube filled with dried leaves. They accused me of having marijuana. It was catnip for my kitten. FML
Today, I was at my girlfriend’s house having dinner with her and her parents. I was casually playing footsie with my girlfriend under the table, until her mom stopped eating and said, “You know that’s my foot, right?” FML
Today, I babysat a 10-year-old and we played Pokemon. It was my first time playing, so he showed me. I ended up winning and the kid started crying and told his parents he hated me. They decided not to pay me for the night, and now I’m out of a job. FML
Today, my parents gave me a sock and card for my eighteenth birthday. The card said, “Now that Dobby is free, get out.” FML
Today, I told my parents that I have a boyfriend. I was answering their questions about him, when my dad cut me off mid-sentence. He accused me of lying through my teeth, and said I’d based him off a character from a Harrison Ford movie. FML
