Today, my new boyfriend said I’m only allowed three male friends, and their names are, “the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.” When I told him he was quoting Will Ferrell, I realized he was born in Croatia and doesn’t know who that is. FML

Today, my dad watched his first Lord of the Rings marathon. Now he keeps spouting lines from the movies, and thought it'd be funny to hide in my closet, just to jump out at me screaming, "My precious!" FML

It's amazing how many FMLs here could easily be avoided if their OPs just had a sense of humour.

Smart guy! I have already achieved that goal, and am now working to own every zombie-movie from 1926 and forward. Can't really see why this is a FML... Unless you can't make a difference between your boyfriend the phd and your boyfriend in his spare time. Loosen up. Life will be easier...

How is this an FML? Quit whining, Will Ferrel is funny as hell there is nothing wrong with wanting to own all of his movies. Get a life you bitch.

Today, I found out the person that I’ve been casually seeing has decided he wants to live with me. I found this out when I asked him to go home after two weeks sleeping over, and he told me he'd already moved out of his mom’s. I sublet a single bedroom and have barely enough room for myself. FML
