Today, I found out that the plant in my kitchen that I have been watering for almost 2 years is fake. FML

You might want to check up on your boyfriend/husband too. Remember, if the smell of bacon doesn't get him to stir, then you've been screwing a mannequin.
Seriously, how on earth could you not have realized that before now? Might it be the fact that it is plasticy? Papery? Maybe the fact that it never grew any larger? I'm not trying to insult you, I just cannot understand how you didn't notice. And if you were living with anyone, did you not wonder why no one else was watering it?
Well, I'll give you this much: At least you have a green thumb...sort of. At least you tried to keep the plant alive. So, Kudos to you in that sense.

A potted rubber tree would be plasticy, and doesn't grow much. I assume the fake plant was placed in real soil, or in hydroponic clay pellets, which you'd normally water.
I noticed that, too.
EDIT: -.-' was responding to this being posted a few days ago

Guys, we're running a french version of FML since 2 years called Viedemerde (VDM). It was a VDM too, posted... very long time ago. It's just a situation that can happen and it's not a proof that it's fake.
Thx.
Meh, I don't really mind, I just thought I was going crazy at first because I distinctly remembered reading it on one of these sites mere days ago... XD
But yeah, I agree its not a very unique situation, dunno how they initally make the mistake to think its alive, but meh, its believable. :P
Lol Wow
I guess anuthing is possible Lol
Fyl as how emberassing!

If you wasted 5 seconds on watering that plant everyday of your life, hell you wasted a lot of time!
