Today, I told my mom about the couple of times that I'd skipped classes during high school. She got really mad and grounded me for a month. That would usually be normal except for the fact that I'm 27 and live in my own apartment. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom scolded me and threatened to ground me for coming home past midnight. Normally, it wouldn't be unreasonable, except for the fact that I'm 24 years-old, and that my parents live with me, in my own house. FML
Today, my mom tried to ground me. In the apartment that I own. Because I didn't eat enough of the dinner that I'd made. FML
Today, my mom lost an argument and tried to ground me. I’m 43 years-old and own my own house, so yes, she actually tried to tell me to stay grounded in my own house. FML
Today, my mom took my cell to work with her. When she got home later, she scolded me for not answering her calls. When I pointed out that she'd taken it, she grounded me for "talking back". FML
Today, I told my mom I was going on a date tonight. She laughed and didn't believe me. When I tried to convince her it was real, she got mad and grounded me for lying. I had to cancel the date. FML
Today, my mom noticed that there weren’t any tampons in the trashcan during my usual time of the month, and promptly grounded me. I’m not pregnant, I just skip periods sometimes. FML
Today, after my mom picked me up from the mall, she asked me what was in my bag from Gap. I wouldn't tell her, and she ended up grounding me. It was her Mother's Day present. FML
Today, I woke up early, went to the gym, then came home and showered. When I went into my room to change, my mom woke up and started pounding on my door, screaming about how lazy and useless I was for sleeping so late. When I tried to tell her otherwise, she grounded me for "talking back". FML
Today, my normally very modest and prissy mom came home, pissed off about something. I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say, and snapped at me to "fuck off." She then grounded me for "making" her use that kind of "vile language." FML
Today, I briefly left my laptop while I went to use the toilet. When I came back, I found "I" had posted on Facebook, calling my mom a "stupid cunt who should just stay in the kitchen." The only other person home at the time was my grandpa. She didn't believe it, and permanently grounded me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

So if you live in your own apartment, how is this a FML? Just don't listen. Duh. I know 13 year olds who know how to rebel against a grounding in their own home better than this.

This is hilarious, I'm at a loss as to how to respond. FYL. Or if you actually adhered to it - YDI.

Why is FML full of such straight-edge wankers?

Straight-edge? Wtf does that have to do with anything?

Because they all seem like spineless losers. I mean come on! Are you really going to let your mother push you around when you're 27 and you live on your own for something you did a decade ago!?

75 is such a rebel

Just tell her no and get out. Rebelling silently isn't really going to help. You need to show her she doesn't control you.

So just don't listen...?

Hahahaha! u can't get grounded past the age of 18 so this is not a FYL situation. YDI..However if u actually take it seriously and are afraid of your mom then YDI and FYL cuz you are too old to be grounded, end of story!

No I'm pretty sure he means FML because his mom still treats him like a kid. If we go deeper for all we know his mom is delusional and still thinks that he IS a kid, which is very sad and kind of reminds me of the mom in Requiem for a Dream :( ____________________________ www.myspace.com/rapid99

Requiem of a Dream is awesome, all those D.A.R.E. programs and stuff were boring as hell, I saw RoaD adn was like "Heeeeelllllll no, no drugies for me pleaze."

If you live with your parents, no matter how old you are, they can still ground you. Their house, their rules. (But seeing as this is not the case... well, I'm assuming the only FML is that it sucks your mom treats you like a kid. :P But that's what parents do, so...)

at #46 you are an idiot the movie is requiem for a dream not of a dream and you made it an acronym which means you are a tool...you probably have never seen the movie and you just go along with every one else who told you it was good...dude who made the post: grow a pair and tell your mom to suck a fat one

Hopefully in high school they teach you the wonders of grammar and sentence structure.
