Today, I got a knock on my door at 3 a.m. Turns out, if I ignore my mother long enough, she will assume I have died and will call the cops. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mother took a bunch of sleeping pills, then went driving. I followed her and dialed 911. Now she thinks that I was "trying to get her arrested," and she refuses to talk to me ever again. FML
Today, someone knocked at my door. I saw it was my Mom, so I flattened myself against the door and tried to be as quiet as possible. I pulled my phone out and almost had silenced it before she called and heard the ringtone through the door. I had to invite her in and hear the usual "get married and have kids." FML
Today, my mom is in the hospital and I'm sitting by the phone in case anyone calls with news. Each time the phone rings, I bolt upright to answer it. So far I've been woken up by two telemarketers, three robo-calls, and some old lady asking for Doris, who doesn't live here. I can't turn my phone off. FML
Today, I stopped by my elderly mother’s house to drop off some groceries. I decided to clean the place while I was there, just to be nice. In true Three Bears fashion, I fell asleep on the couch. I was awoken by a police officer pointing his gun at me. My mom woke up and thought I was a burglar. FML
Today, my mom barged into my room at three in the morning, demanding to know where I'd been. I'd been in my room sleeping since ten o'clock. In that time she had called the police, all of my friends, and my ex-boyfriend, asking if I was with them. FML
Today, I was so exhausted that I slept through my phone ringing, and later my doorbell ringing. My psycho mom freaked out, and thinking I was in trouble, broke a window to get inside. This all happened before 7 a.m. FML
Today, after getting home from a twelve-hour shift at work, I got into bed and passed out. My mother soon woke me up, screaming that she could tell I was "fake sleeping" and ignoring her lecture on how I need to stop being so "lazy". FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, my mother woke me up by loudly vacuuming the house. I had to work the next morning, so I asked her what she was thinking. She told me that if I was really tired and needed sleep, I wouldn't have woken up. It was 3 AM. FML
Today, I got home from work to find the door locked and dead bolted, so I used my cell to call the home phone while banging on the door. My stepmom came out of her room, looked right at me, laughed, and went back to bed. This is the fifth time she's done this. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

When did she call the cops? Why would they show up at 3am? I mean, if you were really dead, you'd still be dead, at lets say... Nine. In the afternoon. (;

At least she cares.

I take it you don't live with her because 1-she would've just busted the door down if it was your room in her house, 2-you would've just yelled "shut up". Sooo, why was she at your house at 3 am? Did she have a bad dream and need to crawl into bed with you???

At least your Mom cares! My Mom cut me off from all birthday/christmas money/gifts because I "don't call her anymore". It's total bullshit because I call her and text her a lot, trying to have a casual conversation, and she's too damned busy with her Farm thing on Facebook to pick up the damned phone. At least my Dad is a decent enough man to pick up the phone or to call back.
Sirrush 0
oh ouch, that farm app on FB is retarded... your mom sucks for being addicted to a fb app... anyways, OP, your mom needs to tame her overactive imagination, it might get her in trouble

The hypocritical irony is the fact that she used to throw a fit and ground me for spending 'too much' time on a virtual pet site instead of doing something 'constructive'. If I had the balls, I'd give her SO much crap for her Facebook farm addiction right now.

Dude, do it. She's already cut you off. You've got nothing to lose.

Don't want to lose the privilege to actually visit once in a while! XD I'm born and raised a coward anyways. I'll say I wanna do it, but I'll never actually go through with it. Even Dad's getting pissed off at her obsession. I don't see the marriage lasting much longer.

Next, on Divorce Court! That's awful. Really. What site were /you/ on, just curious?

Neopets. Go ahead and laugh all you want. I hold no shame being a member of that community.

HOLY SHIT! NO WAY! I played it too. For about six years. I'm not ashamed either. I had a feeling though. Seriously. Be my new best friend?
Luckster 0
Hell yea! I still go actually. Been there since 2003. Why bother leave? I have nothing better to do when I have spare time. If you still go there, mstr_dark is my user.

I stopped playing when someone hacked my account about a year ago. D: But seriously. No one gives it any credit, especially when we all know a bunch of us played it as a kid.

Most people have forgotten that the site started out as a place for really bored college students to hang out at. They even had beer and wine items at one point! It just attracted a lot of kids, so Adam and Donna turned it into a family site. I been hacked and frozen in the past.....doesn't keep me away though. XD

Adam and I have the same birthday. I always felt we had a connection. Hahaha. Yeah, I remember all that. The history. I remember when Maraqua was nothing. I still miss my guild. Oh and finding avatars. Very addicting website. Seriously. Ahahahaha, I love how we're discussing NeoPets. So great.

Let's continue the conversation through Private Message. XD This is getting WAY off topic!

cops at the door at 3 AM for me lead to thinking 'Oh shit what did i do... think, play it cool, remember ur mariott rights and the fifth ammendment, and im pretty sure that the 1st and 2nd ammendments apply to minors'
moonlight_daze 8
Actually, the second Amendment (the right to bear arms) doesn't really apply to minors.

this sounds like something my mother would do, although shed probably do it more out of spite than out of actual worry for me

Worst part is i was the last to call her a few days before and she said she would call me back because she couldnt talk at the moment... next thing i know my university's PD was knocking at my door... smh... lol... but u guys are right... its better to have parents that care
