Today, my husband and I got a new stainless steel microwave. When we took it out of the package, we noticed it was blue and got angry. We were about to return it, but we called in our 12 year-old daughter to see what she thought about it. She then took off the blue protective plastic. FML

Today, I did the dishes to make my parents happy, even though it's my brother's chore. My mom's fancy new Yeti cup was among the dirty dishes, which also has a Bluetooth speaker on the bottom. I didn't know this, and now the Bluetooth speaker is now ruined, mom and dad are furious, and I apparently have to buy a new one. FML

So there was a protective cover on your microwave and you didn't realize. Yes, your life is really difficult. Oh how you suffer.

How is this an fml. Maybe if it really was blue and your daughter did something to it so you couldn't return it then it would be.

It's not really that their life is difficult, it's that they are so slow that makes them f'ed for life.

As soon as I read "we noticed it was blue" I knew they were morons and didn't know it was the protective cover, and of corse that's exactly what happened and their 12 yr old was able to figure it out in no time. How stupid are people these days? Usually the blue cover is already peeling off and you can tell its a plastic over it!

You people are so lame. if the fml is one which represents a shitty life, you claim fake. when one rolls around that represents everyday shitty things, you claim their life isn't bad. The fact that their daughter out smarted them, is their fml. I'd be pretty pissed too.

Bad times when your 12 year old has more common sense than the parents.

Comment 55: Actually I'm in 7th grade, and in honors classes so not all 12 year olds are still in elementary school levels.

This is really sad. That protective blue cover is so obviously a plastic wrapping, it comes on most stainless steel appliances now. I could try to be clever here, but honestly, I feel sorry for you. Not sorry of the "let's have a telethon" variety, but the form of pity that comes from knowing that you are probably just barely able to tie your own shoes....
