Love, Embarrassing, Family, Racism and Grandparents: **** that dude

**** that dude

Today, none of us had any idea that our grandfather was a huge racist until I brought my new girlfriend over to a family gathering, and he started yelling because she's Indian, some of the most disgusting racial slurs I’ve ever heard. We left when it looked like he might actually hit her. FML

Today, my racist, homophobic, generally degenerate grandmother visited. Within 20 minutes, she uttered multiple racial slurs, said Robert Downey Jr. will burn in hell for playing a black man in one of his movies, and yelled that she'd "whip the piss" out of me, after I asked her to leave. FML

Today, my son brought home his Muslim girlfriend and I had to watch my husband almost physically restraining himself from making a racist comment, especially since she was wearing a headscarf. No, I was not aware he was this much of a racist when I married him. FML

Today, my dad cussed out an individual on the phone because he thought it was a telemarketer. He was my Indian girlfriend's father. FML

Today, I brought my girlfriend of six months over to meet my family. When my grandpa saw her, he said, "What a waste of good breeding stock." FML

Today, and up until now, I never knew my dad had a racist streak until he found out his usual fish and chip shop had been turned into an Indian takeaway. The language he was using, I had to google what half of the names even meant, since I wasn't born in the '70s. The neighbours definitely heard him, because now they won't talk to us. FML

Today, my racist grandmother was complaining that the new nurse at her nursing home is a black woman. I casually asked, "Is she cute?" I'm now out of the will. FML

Today, I was having lunch with my fiancé's family. After he excused himself to use the bathroom, his grandmother glared at me, sneered, "I never liked you" and kept eating while the others smirked. When my fiancé returned, everyone pretended nothing had happened. FML

Today, I went to a family dinner. My grandma wasted no time calling me a slut for not wearing a dress, my dad called my police officer boyfriend a "fucking pig", and then he told my mother to "put a cock in it" when she defended me. No wonder I hardly ever visit these people. FML

I think y’all should’ve left the moment the racial slurs started, just my opinion

that sucks, but if none of you knew, maybe he should be checked for mental issues. could be early onset of dementia or something. good luck.

You know, it's not elder abuse if they had it coming.

I’m white (100%), my wife is black/hispanic/chinese. My dad is from Louisiana (not racist, it’s why he left LA), I sympathize with you. My wife’s family hates me for being white, and my family hates my wife for not being white. Since I allign with chaotic evil, it gives me great pleasure to know my dead relatives are spinning in their grave. I thought about grabbing a giant magnet tombstone and copper wire, wrapping their corpses with it and making an electric company. It gives me delight to know I am making them spin in their grave. Now with a wee little one on the way, I laugh knowing they are horrified by the idea of their genetics “tainted” (their words, not mine) and can’t wait to see the faces of my family when I announce it.
