Today, I went to the cemetery to visit a friend. As I was looking for his burial plot, I fell into a dug out grave and had to call my partner to come help me get out. FML
Today, I had to sneak a ladder into a cemetery at midnight because my husband got drunk with his buddies, decided to visit his mother's grave, and in the dark he fell into a fresh grave and couldn’t climb out. Not many women can say they’ve seen their husbands climb out of the grave I suppose. FML
Today, my son and I attended the funeral of a family friend. It went as well as any funeral could, up until the point that my apparently drunk son tried to grope the widow. I came an inch away from causing my son to need his own funeral. FML
Today, at the funeral home where I work, I asked my boss if it was time to "bring out the stiff". I didn't realize the guy's family was not only in the building, but within earshot as well. FML
Today, someone took a shit on my father’s gravestone. FML
Today, I attended my husband's funeral and my son carried out the eulogy, which basically turned into a character assassination, ending with "and I hope Hell is hot enough for you, old man." Almost our entire family agreed with every word he said. FML
Today, it's my husband's funeral. My adult children never made it secret that they didn't like him, but I'd hoped they'd come to support me. Their replies when I asked them went from, "You know I hated him", to "No, I have work", to "I'm not going anywhere near that fanatic's church." FML
Today, I found out that my grandmother desecrated my grandfather's grave. 14 years after his death, she dug up his body and had him cremated so that she could sell his plot back to the cemetery for money. I was the one who found out so I had to tell the rest of the family. FML
Today, my family attended the funeral of an old family friend's baby, who died in childbirth. Afterwards, my husband went around snickering and quietly telling dead baby jokes to the other attendees. FML
Today, I attended the wrong funeral. I spent twenty minutes trying to hide and walk away without being too conspicuous. FML

I'm sorry. That's so rude, especially in a cemetery.

That's ******* horrible
onlychildFTW 33
There isn't a bad enough word to describe how disrespectful that is. At least discuss the stupid stuff in a place that doesn't have people mourning losses of loved ones.
caplox 6
And it was memorial day too..

Lol did anyone else notice the person who said "That's ******* horrible" has the name of anti-666? Irony
beccaishereyay 11
How is that ironic?
unknown_user5566 26
Definitely horrible. I have a hard time wrapping my head around the insensitivity and stupidity of some people around my age. I barely feel comfortable talking at a grave site in fear of disrupting people around me, let alone smoking weed and discussing conspiracy theories. FYL, OP. I hope next time you try to honor your late husband, you get to do so in peace.
FMLshark 12
35: Because being anti-666 apparently means you are anti-Satan, it being a Satanic number, and we all know only Satanists say things like "*******". So much for that ******* "irony".
beccaishereyay 11
Haha I'm sorry you got thumbed down for being sarcastic. I thought it was funny. And OP, For all anyone knows they could've been at a good friend or family members grave that they used to have stoned conversations with. Usually everyone at a cemetery has a story whether it's obvious or not. Everyone has a different way of dealing with loss. Or they could just be asholes.
unknown_user5566 26
47- Even if that is their own personal way of dealing with loss, it's inappropriate. If they were there to mourn, they should be cognizant of the people around them, and realize that they should be more respectful.

Cemetery's are a public place. Everyone who has lost someone has a right to be there. If my brother asked me to try and not be sad when he died and maybe even go smoke a blunt with him at his grave, I'll make damn sure that's what I'm gonna do. I didn't say it wasn't disrespectful. I just said everyone has their own story.
unknown_user5566 26
I recognize they are a public place, and that IF those teenagers were there to mourn, they absolutely have a right to be there. However if I lost somebody and knew how badly that hurt, and felt the importance of honoring their life, I wouldn't want to disturb the people around me who were there trying to do the same thing. I wouldn't look down on someone smoking at a friend or family member's grave site if their loved one asked them to. I look down on it when it becomes a disturbance for other people who are trying to grieve.

Maybe they were on the other side of the grave so they couldn't see/hear her. Not that having a conspiracy conversation in a cemetery is respectful but it could be they just thought they were alone with the person they were mourning.
unknown_user5566 26
59- The conversation wasn't the worst part of this situation, I believe it was the fact that they were smoking weed.
beccaishereyay 11
Well you are very well spoken and I do see your point :)
unknown_user5566 26
Thank you. :)

Damn them teens. Being stupid and whatnot.
nirvi 3
Ahh.. Teenagers.. Lost cause
gamercanadian 11
I hate how this teen stereotype works. Not all of us are like that. People only point out the bad ones and say all teenagers are shit. Wtf is this.
unknown_user5566 26
36- I agree that blanket stereotypes are ridiculous, however this IS FML, and sarcasm is a frequently used medium of comedy. No need to get worked up.
yahoowizard 16
Think about this FML, except with thirty year olds or older people. It does stop making as much sense, and by the time teenagers grow up anyway, they look back at a dumber version of themselves
dorworters 9
maybe they had no idea it bothered her...? did anyone think of that? maybe she could have said something, and they would have gladly left. stoners are typically very peaceful and non pugnacious
dodo116 16
Hey asshole, Just because I'am sixteen doesn't mean I' am a lost cause. I actually have a possible scholarship with the ADF ( work it out yourself, if you can ) and will be doing a gap year in a developing country. What have you done with your life?
thevoidwalkers 11
Why so insulted? the teenagers shouldn't have done that, I go to cemeteries to mourn for people I don't even know and clear off old headstones. That's what they should've done too instead of getting high
mxnuelh 2
Ignore them, they were flying !
cBlackout 13
Are you kidding? Please tell me you're just being a bad troll.
onlychildFTW 33
Flying high...above the clouds! Until reality hits them like a bag of bricks and they fall and break their necks. Natural selection at work that'd be.
FMLshark 12
I wouldn't be surprised if 3 was one of them.
syki 22
Come on, guys - looking at his profile, I don't reckon 3 is a native English speaker. Not to mention he put a space between the end of his sentence and the exclamation mark, which you do in French. I think he honestly meant 'high'.
buck33 14
I'm sorry. That's so rude, especially in a cemetery.
igive 29
Are there loitering rules at cemeteries?
HeartForMusic 23
That's so disrespectful.

change how gravity works for them and knock them to the ground.
Il_Maestro 6
Gravity already does that.
SqueakyChipmunk 21
It's ok. I'm not good with physics either, dude.
TheNewGuy03 28
Yeah, you see, instead of knocking them down, you can knock them up... ...That doesn't really sound right. |the kid|
beaglegal 42
Or because they're "high", get it? :D
Mercified 4
That's just something stupid you could go on without.
SqueakyChipmunk 21
Instead, you accidentally got high from second hand, and began discussing your hatred of Twilight and teenagers with him.
STFUGTFO 6
That sucks. Report them to someone that works there? Shame on them. Out of the million places they could have gone to be dumb assholes and smoke pot they pick a cemetery. I'm sorry for your loss.
Yousuck24 21
You should be glad you've heard this information! Now you can try and stop this government. Although it sucks that you couldn't mourn for your husband and I'm sorry for your loss.

Your comment proves that you are a teenager..
