Today, I sent my grandfather a picture of me because he hasn't seen me in years. I guess I should wear makeup next time, because he sent back a heavily photoshopped and cropped version and told me how beautiful I look. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad finally added me on Facebook, When I looked through his photos, I quickly noticed he'd heavily photoshopped the photos I'm in to make me look prettier. FML
Today, my grandfather sent everyone in my family an email thanking them for the photo we got him. I'd bought the frame, edited the picture, and delivered it to him. All everyone else did was show up and complain while the picture was being taken. I'm the only one who didn't get a thank you email. FML
Today, my grandma commented on my Facebook profile picture: "That's a great photo! It doesn't look anything like you!" FML
Today, my grandfather told me that I was ugly. When my mom found out, she said that, "Old people are allowed to tell the truth." FML
Today, my date told me I have a smile that "reminds him of his grandma." Then he showed me a picture. I look exactly like her. FML
Today, when I visited my grandmother at her nursing home, I was looking at pictures she had of all the grandkids. All were normal graduation pictures etc. but mine was a cutout where she made me skinnier. FML
Today, my six-year-old son told me my makeup looks like his grandmother's did in the casket. FML
Today, I uploaded a photo of myself at the beach on Facebook. The first comment it got was "Wow!! If I was 20 yrs younger, oh boy ;)". Yeah, thanks for that, grandpa. FML
Today, my grandpa accidentally posted a nude photo of himself on Facebook. I will never be able to unsee that. FML
Today, I sent a guy that I like a lot a picture of myself. I'd got all dressed up sexy and did my make-up. He sent me a reply saying, "Your cat is fat." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I spent 2 hours showing my grandmother how to use the lock button on her iPad XD- but maybe your grandfather could have put his skills to better use~ I'm sure you're beautiful :)

Because it's not obvious how the makeup was edited on, using the verb "photoshopped" (yes, it's an actual verb. How cool is that?) is appropriate. However, before assuming the grandfather is a Photoshop ninja, it's worth noting that there are makeup applying applications. Many, MANY makeup apps. Not that I'd know or have any experience with them. HAHAHA! Ha. I wouldn't.

Only two hours? I've spent months trying to teach my grandma how to listen to her voicemail.

That's pretty terrible but sounds like a case of good intentions gone bad. Its pretty impressive that your grandpa can Photoshop though. Maybe he was trying to show off his new photoshoping skills?

Well on the bright side, he did try to complement you...so take it as a nice gesture not to hurt your feelings.

Of course you wouldn't know about makeup apps, what a silly thought. On a side note, love your new profile pic

Just because your not beautiful on the outside doesn't mean you aren't on the inside.

the inside doesn't matter if you're an ugly hag on the outside

I have a dejavu. Wasn't there a FML like this but with a guy the OP liked?

There was an episode of South Park about this.

I vaguely remember another FML like this one, but it was OP's boyfriend instead of grandpa...
