Today, my parents had a fight, which is a pretty normal occurence at our house. But today, they fought over an orange. Dad is now sitting in his bedroom with the aforementioned orange. FML
I agree, your life sucks (19308) - you totally deserved it (1113)

An orange huh? At least your family has good health values... They could have been gluttonous and fought over a cheeseburger.

Geesh, you're acting like I said "first." Shut up asshole.

youaresofucked.
Those of us who know about wilshires1's special talent do particularly give a fuck about what she says. ;)
LOL ... So what they are kiddish at times. At least they settle it in-house. There are many who won't speak up and one day breakup the news of moving out. FYL for not enjoying the moments.
why in the WORLD would you fight over an orange.......

Wow, that's... pretty petty, lol. That must suck, to have them fight over absolutely everything... my parents used to fight a LOT, and I remember how shitty it was to hear them scream at each other. Fyl, yes.
LOL. Ah. Oranges. So many marriages they have broken up. When will people learn?!

Hopefully soon, however my boyfriend and I still let the occasional orange come between us. Sighh

how does an orange cum between you? I'd love to see that played out.
#92 - On 03/10/2010 at 10:11pm by nickernutz
Ummm oh no they argued over an orange? If fighting is a normal thing in your house shouldn't this be expected? I mean it is ridiculous but you make it sound like it happens frequently so FYL for having bitchy parents I guess?

Good job. Do you you have an iPhone? Because sometimes mine says "no comments yet" when in fact there are.
#7 - On 10/26/2009 at 11:23am by wilshires1
uh how old are they? when will they realize that they arent in gradeschool any more?
#6 - On 10/26/2009 at 11:22am by Jordan_Brianna
That's a pretty dumb thing to fight about.
I sense a divorce in the near future ._.
I wonder who'll get the rest of the fruits then?
My guess is your mom gets the banana, and your dad gets the peach. x]

Your mum was hogging the orange, your dad deserves some playtime with it as well. Clearly they love the orange more than you. I mean comon, squeezing your head doesnt provide a healthy drink now does it? I hope my first son is an apple.
I hope this is an example of a reasonable fight. At least it is a winnable one. Dad got the orange -- Dad wins! He went to "his bedroom"? What's the deal with the separate bedrooms?
When you fight about who crushed who's spirit or who sucked the life force out of whom, you can't victorioulsy run off to your bedroom with a tangible object of conquest.
Who's modding some of these FMLs?
(checks the scoreboard and announcer table) A room full of type-writing monkeys smoking cigars? I thought so.

That's what I'm thinking.
This is probably one of the stupidest FML's I've read.
Lmao at the monkiessmokingcigars. XD
#29 - On 10/26/2009 at 1:27pm by ChronicFAIL
Honestly this is the saddest FML ever! Parents are overgrown kids, and children are their broken toys. Should one take a maturity test before starting a family? But then all human reproduction would stop, and humankind would cease to exist...Is he happy now that he has that orange?
Sorry to say this, but, they're both retarded for fighting over something so silly!

Oh this is SO good. Such a good fml in a comical way. Sorry for that. I hope they don't fight over a slice of cheese next time.

I would KILL for an orange. I totally understand how your parents had a fight over one. Get ready to have two of each holiday!

my parents got in a huge fight over a mcdonalds toy once
#28 - On 10/26/2009 at 1:26pm by Bassmanjjm33
Why the hell would they fight over an orange in the first place?
#31 - On 10/26/2009 at 1:57pm by phonetrubl
Oh my god, this is so STUPID! Everyone knows BANANAS are worth fighting over!
...
Anyway, what was he doing in the bedroom with the orange...?
I bet it was a chocolate orange. Those are worth fighting over.

Nobody else caught the reference to separate bedrooms? Is that normal in Australia? In the US, it's the kiss of death for a marriage.
My parents have had separate bedrooms on and off - my dad snores and it keeps my mom awake. Not all separate bedroom situations are due to fighting. My parents are very much in love - my mom just wants her sleep and my dad respects that. :)

my ex and I fought over stupid shit like that all the time so I can relate. I guess just countdown the days til you can move out
I hate to see the arguement if it had been an apple...FYL indeed
#48 - On 10/26/2009 at 3:47pm by MissGreenT
a regular occurence? your childhood must have been quite messed up from all of that. and anyway I don't get it, was he in his room because he didn't wanna give the orange away or did your mom "send him to his room"? the latter would be the real fml.
Did their marriage vows include the phrase "apple of my eye"?
#53 - On 10/26/2009 at 4:37pm by SimplyLaurel
Dad doesn't find mom apealling any more.. so he took the orange into his own hands...
Some passionate couples fight over the oddest things just for the make-up sex, but I don't see that happening when they have seperate bedrooms.
Which leads me to believe the fight was over something they can't 'discuss' in front of the OP, and the orange was a proxy of opportunity.
Wow... that's pretty deep for a FML reply. No more caffine today!
I don't exactly see how this is an FML. That's actually pretty hilarious.
#57 - On 10/26/2009 at 5:47pm by pentameter
It woulda been one thing if it was over the last blunt, or the last dime of meth. But over an orange? Thats completely ridiculous.
Tell your parents to stop fighting over fruit - they've obviously both already picked lemons.
#64 - On 10/26/2009 at 7:56pm by resonant14
LOL! I was at a friends house once and his parents were fighting over a packet of Krispy Kreme doughnuts. The women was screaming at him because he didn't get the flavour she liked...
#65 - On 10/26/2009 at 8:46pm by Andrewl_FML
Way to be the man of the house dad! You take that orange to your room and...enjoy!?

#68 - On 10/26/2009 at 10:07pm by BlowYaMind
haha, my parents had almost exactly the same argument the other day. mum got the shits because dad was eating all the oranges, so dad hid and ate another.
Oooookaaaaaayyy... thats just odd. any ideas y the orange? Nope? that just makes no sense
lmao at monkeys with cigars, i totally agree
#74 - On 10/27/2009 at 2:54am by Shadow_vamp_503
i bet their going to fight over oxygen the next time they start
#85 - On 10/28/2009 at 12:47am by EveryDayJackAss
Haha I'm sorry but I find this situation more so hilarious than I do an FML.
