Today, my friend was showing me pictures of her and her family. I told her to stop at one of the pictures. I started laughing my back off and said that she looked grotesque. She asked me if I was serious, I swore that I was. It was actually a picture of her sister, who died 1 year ago. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a relative showed me a picture of her phone. I also saw a picture of her husband, a friend, sleeping. He looked like he was dead to the world. I asked, jokingly, "Why is there a picture of a dead guy on your phone?" Turns out it was her father, who is in the hospital, and dying any day now. FML
Today, my deranged coworker sent me a text message containing a picture that she just took of her uncle. It was at his funeral. FML
Today, I was at a friend's house when his dad told me that he had Photoshopped his face onto a woman's body. I looked at the photo and said it was gross, disgusting, and weird. Later on, my friend told me that the photo was actually a picture of his dad's twin sister. FML
Today, thinking my ex-gothic friend was going through another "wear all black" phase, I walked up to her and jokingly asked who died. Her father. Her father died. FML
Today, I was speaking to an old friend and I asked her how her mother was. She replied, "She passed away, you came to her funeral last month." FML
Today, my friend was complaining about how fat she was. To make her feel better I said, "Psh, you're not fat! In fact we're about the same weight!" She looked at me for a second, then burst into tears sobbing, "I'm fat! I'm fat!" FML
Today, I was sitting in my garden with my younger sister when she told me that she'd found pictures of me from a decade ago. She also told me that I've changed a lot over the years, because back then I was still pretty. My neighbours overheard it and started laughing out loud. FML
Today, a pregnant friend who is due in 2 weeks posted a picture of a baby on Facebook. I commented congratulations. She's still pregnant. It was a picture of her baby who died 3 years ago. FML
Today, my friend showed me a creepy piece of artwork he'd drawn. I laughed and said that it would give me nightmares, meaning it as a compliment. Turns out, this one was in honor of his dead grandmother, who'd raised him. FML
Today, my coworker said that she suddenly got the shivers. I jokingly told her that it meant she must be being watched by a dead person and made stupid ghost noises. She then told me it was the anniversary of her dad's death and burst into tears. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Even if that was her in the picture, why would you call her ugly right in her face like that? Some friend you are.

Are you guys all idiots? She thought the picture was of her FRIEND, not just some random family member. How did you all somehow miss this? She was just joshing her friend, and it unluckily turned out to be a dead sister that physically resembled her. It's completely not her fault and could happen to anyone. Morons.

I didn't miss that, and I still clicked YDI, just because it was such a dumb thing to say.

Jenkins, that has no bearing on what I said. Replace the "she"s with "he"s and the same argument applies.
fatlip1828 0
Haha. The point is, is that he criticising everyone while being ironically the one who is a "moron". It's like saying "Your stupid"
Coldie 0
You know, I could point our your grammar mistakes as well but who ******* cares? Not noticing the gender the person had selected and telling them that they're a horrible person for making what would in almost 100% of circumstances be a harmless jab at a close friend are very different things.

Why you thought that calling your friend ugly in a picture in the first place was funny escapes me...

eh it's not your fault. she shoulda told you.

agreed. not your fault for not knowing. ugly family members? not a good thing.
blastvortex 4
Um, she was told. The OP never said whether or not her friend had the chance to tell her about her sister before she started laughing at her. You're assuming something that may or may not be true. It's true that it's not her fault for not knowing before the picture was shown, but she did mock someone regardless of the consequences. @OP: Now you know that thinking before you act is wiser than not, not that mocking people is ever the brightest idea in the world anyway. YDI.

Agreed. Probably not wise, but I think the assumption is that he thought it was his friend (same age, same parents?) and was just messing around with her. They're obviously comfortable enough with one another that they go through family photo albums together; I'd say they're probably at the 'joking around' stage of their relationship. You guys are harsh.

he's trying to express that it was funny, funnier than laughing his ass off, but not as funny as laughing his entire body off, ya know?
tikimuppet 11
maybe he's too much of a pussy to write "ass" on teh interwebz? either way he's a complete ass for saying something like that about someone's family member

I couldn't even concentrate on the fml because I was puzzling over "laugh my back off." Wut.
