Family, Dogs and Animals: Second class citizen

Second class citizen

By crapped on - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my family went on vacation. I had to stay home to take care of everyone's animals. I called my mom, who said she was too busy to talk to me. When my sister asked her who was on the phone, she replied, "The dog sitter." FML

Today, my parents called me to ask if I could drop my dog off to them on Sunday. They're having a Superbowl party and want to show her off to their guests. My dog is invited, but I'm not. FML

Today, my sister went into early labor. Instead of telling me, my mom turned to my dog and said, "Guess what? You're going to be an uncle!" Our dog ranks higher than me in our family's metaphorical food chain. FML

Today, I wasn't allowed to work from home, despite being ill enough to just take the day off anyway, all so there could be "someone to answer the phone." The phone didn't ring once all day. FML

Today, I was out walking my dog. I was throwing a stick in the lake so he could go get it (he loves swimming). A friend called me. After I was done calling, another friend came by, and we talked for a while. When my dog barked, I accidentally threw my iPhone into the water instead of his stick. FML

Today, I went to my grandmother's house to pick up her cat to take him to the vet. She forgot who I was and sprayed me in the face with pepper spray. FML

Today, I wanted to spend the day cleaning my room. My mom thinks that I was lying just to stay home, so she yelled at me to go to her shop. At the shop, she yelled at me for not being any help. When we got home she yelled at me for having a messy room. FML

Party Hard!

By Livewire - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, it's New Year's Eve. My husband and I weren't invited to any parties, and we don't have a sitter to be able to go out by ourselves. Instead, I'm watching "Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2" on the Disney channel with our 5-year-old, and my husband has passed out on the couch from sheer boredom. FML

Today, I was at my boyfriend's house waiting to surprise him when he got home from work. I was laying in his bed when he called to tell me we were over. I couldn't leave before he got home. FML

The ****? I don't know what's worse..the fact that they all went without you or how she referred to you as the dog sitter. Who wants to vote?

Why don't you invite your boyfriend/girlfriend over and have hot sex on your parents bed? That'll show 'em and will be more fun.

I'm gonna be the bad guy and say that maybe OP didn't get to go on vacation because of something *OP* did? Like maybe the person was initially supposed to go on said vacation and then did something idiotic to get him/herself grounded -- thus no trip for OP. Kids always wanna get on here and whine about how awful their parents are, but we don't know the whole story. Maybe it's the OPs who are really the awful ones. :P

this is a possibility. But from personal experience, work is often the cause of my not going on family trips and I end up at home with three cats and a dog. the good thing is that I don't have to deal with people after work, the bad is that I have to deal with the cats and dog fighting...

I realize that there could be other possibilities, and I agree that the mom was a bitch for talking to her kid that way on the phone. But everyone wants to have sympathy on OP and they don't know the whole story. If the FML read, "My family went on vacation. I had to stay home and take care of the animals because I couldn't take off from work (or some other prior obligation). [insert the rest of the FML here]" then I would be sure to have total sympathy. But without knowing it, I don't know whether to sympathize or not. People aren't always innocent, unfortunately.
