Miscellaneous: Nice timing

Nice timing

Today, I went to my grandfather's funeral. As I stood there, bawling my eyes out, my aunt came over and put her arm around me. She leaned her head close to mine. I assumed she was going to say something comforting. Instead she asked where I'd bought my shoes from. FML

Today, I was standing in the parking lot with my sister, after my aunt's funeral, when my grandma walks up and says to my sister, "You're the one going places in life, I'm proud to have you as a grand daughter." She then looked at me, and walked away. FML

Today, at my grandparent's funeral, we were waiting for the pastor. He was fashionably late because he couldn't find his sunglasses and had gone to buy new ones. FML

Today, I called my boyfriend to have a shoulder to cry on because my grandpa died. As soon as I told him, he started crying and telling me how much he missed his grandmother, who died six years ago. I spent the majority of the phone call listening to him wail. FML

Today, while at my aunt's funeral, my grandma who has terrible memory loss asked me whose funeral we were at. I had to explain to her that her daughter had died. FML

Today, at my grandmother's funeral, my senile grandfather kept asking me "Where's granny? I've been looking for her, but I can't find her." FML

Today, it was my grandfather's burial. As the family was about to leave, a great aunt came up to my skinny, tall and pretty cousin and told her, "Stay beautiful and kind." Then, she walked to me and said, "And you, Stay kind." FML

Today, my grandpa died. I called my grandma to make sure she was going to be fine. After talking over the phone for 30 minutes or so, I told her goodbye and said, out of habit, "Say hi to grandpa for me". FML

Today, I took my girlfriend out for a romantic dinner, since we can't see each other this Valentine's Day. Halfway through, my aunt called, telling me my grandma had died. I had to leave because I was crying so much, leaving my girlfriend with a very pricey bill. FML

23: Agreed. This is just dumb, not an FML at all. Seriously, it happens, and it's not that awful at all. I was asked where I got my sunglasses at my cousin's funeral. Who cares? Though I suppose I could say FYL for grandpa dying.

Agree with ya'll, the FML's today are shittier than shit. "OMG, MY LIFE IS RUINED BECAUSE MY AUNT ASKED ME WHERE I GOT MY SHOES! WHAT EVER SHALL I DO!?" Like what kind of twat would really think "fml" in that situation? Holy christ.

I normally don't complain about an FML unless it's particularly awful. And this is.

Well... since you were bawling your eyes out did you ever think your aunt was trying to distract you so that you would stop crying uncontrollably? Stop being so self centred. This is more a CYGL *celebrate your grandfathers life* instead of a FML.
