Health, Family, Poopoo peepee and Gross: Don't mention it

Don't mention it

By PoorGramps - 09/12/2009 07:39 - United States

Today, my greatgrandpa came over for dinner. Halfway through the meal, he pooped himself. My family went through the rest of the meal acting like we hadn't noticed to avoid embarassment. As it was coming to an end, my sister came home and immediately yelled, "Ew! Did someone poop?" He cried. FML

Today, while I was doing my hair, my grandpa walked in, dropped his pants, and started taking a crap in the toilet right next to me. FML

Today, while at a family get together, my bowels suddenly decided they needed to be emptied. Straight away. I felt bad enough using someone else's bathroom for this, but later, my sister came in and loudly said "God, Brian, what the hell have you been eating?" in front of everyone at the get together. FML

Today, my grandparents came over for a family dinner. I'm somewhat overweight, and my grandma kept making sound effects in time with me doing pretty much anything. When I complained to my dad after she made a long farting sound as I sat down, he told me to suck it up. FML

Cringe

Today, there was a potluck at my girlfriend's house. I had a sour stomach, so I went to the bathroom to relieve myself. When I flushed, nothing happened. They had to call a plumber to fix the toilet filled with my crap. The whole family watched, noses plugged and faces cringed, looking at me. FML

Today, while at my boyfriend's house, my stomach began to hurt really badly, so I excused myself to take a shit. I let it all out. Later on, his dad went to the bathroom and yelled, "Goddamn son, what the hell did you do in here?!" FML

Take a break

By Anonymous - 04/05/2024 07:00 - United States

Today, I really had to take a shit. My coworker had gone on lunch break and I was alone in the shop. There were no customers, so to the can I went. Cue a long series of loud wet farts and splashes, followed by the flush. I emerged to see the horrified face of some old lady and her grandson who'd heard everything. FML

Today, I accidentally farted in the middle of my grandfather's funeral and my cousin started cracking up. It caused a chain reaction of laughter throughout all of the other cousins and my siblings. Now my aunts won't speak to any of us. FML

Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time over dinner. I had to use the bathroom part way through, and ended up taking the foulest dump of my life. I cracked open a window on my way out, but my boyfriend's dad went in soon after, quickly retching and booming, "What the fuck?!" FML

Today, I went shopping with my grandma. She went to the bathroom and was gone for a long while. I jokingly asked, "What happened, you fall in?" She did. She had shit all over the back of her shirt. FML

Your family should be ashamed of themselves. How could they do that to him? How could they not have on any Clay Aiken music during dinner?

your family is the problem here, not greatgrandpa and not the sister. They were not trying to avoid embarassing him but themselves. The thing to do was to help the poor man, not pretend the problem doesn't exist. This is a FML alright, but not because your sister made ggpa cry, but because your family is cold and uncaring

This is probably what happened. from the grandfathers point of view. he was most likely just sitting at dinner with his family ( something that clearly doenst happen often because the OP said "over for dinner" rather than "we were at dinner"infering the the great grandfather is a guest" when suddenly he lost control of his bowls. clearly mortified, and hoping no one noticed he probaly continued eating and talking as if everything was fine. the family, seeing his reacting probably thought it was a good idea to go along with it and pretend they didnt notice ( respect your elders). after a while, when things seemed to be getting less awkward for everyone, the sister bursts into the room and shouts what the entire family had been thinking silently and why the great grandfather had hoped no one noticed. hence the crying out of mortification. this situation is not hard to imagine guys.

So he pooped himself and you and your family just left him there? That is gross and mean. Who wants to sit in a pile of their waste and eat dinner?

I feel sorry for him, but why the hell is it an FML for you?

How could you get all that cleaned up quickly? and carry on with the meal like nothing happened? but then again, how can you act like nothing happened? and why wasn't a nurse on standby??

Not every old person with an incontinence problem needs a nurse. Did you ever think the family couldn't afford a nurses service? Or maybe he lives in a rest home and went to visit the family for dinner? Nurses aren't the only ones who can wipe poop. My cousin took care of her mother-in-law until the woman passed away. She was bed/wheelchair bound and couldn't go to the bathroom on her own. They didn't hire a nurses service until the end when she was put on a certain type of machinery that required special care.

Poor grandpa. I understand where OP's coming from, not wanting embarrass him, but really, someone should've helped him clean up. Grandpa would've cried anyway if he realized he pooped (if he hadn't realized it already) and no one from his family seemed to care enough to tell him.

To all the people who are saying 'oh well why wouldnt you clean it up?!?!?!?!', maybe he's ashamed of it, and didn't want to bring it up? And for the others who say 'how is this an fml?', how would you like to see your great grandpa cry because of something he's ashamed of, and brought up rather rudely? So, basically, what I'm saying is...**** OFF.
