Are you serious?

He is pointing out how such a ridiculously worded fml made it to the site

Ahaha. Okay kids, come gather around and Mommy Sirin will tell you a story. The wife took the husband to her mother's birthday party. Her mother is indicated to be the husband's mother-in-law. Obviously, the husband has a grudge against his mother-in-law (who doesn't) and formulated a stupid insult. That is how it is obviously meant to be, except the daft OP either meant "future mother-in-law", or for some reason said "boyfriend" instead. Clear? Why don't we change it to what I guess the OP must have meant.

Damn it, I wish I could thumb up Mommy Sirin's last comment.

#12, I'm with you! For anyone thinking of thumbing down poor Holli611, the FML originally said "boyfriend" instead of "husband." I keep asking the folks at FML is they could make a editor's note if they substantially change a story once it's been published. For example, "'Boyfriend' changed to 'husband' at 10:35." C'mon!

I can't help but be a little suspicious; you don't often mix up "husband" and "boyfriend". And a boyfriend with a future mother-in-law is often a fiancé. There's not often a direct jump from boyfriend to husband...so even a recently married person is more likely to accidentally say "fiancé" than "boyfriend" when talking about a new husband. Of course, none of that has ANYTHING to do with the actual POINT of the FML...which is the fact that there's a lot of bad blood in OP's family, and she's stuck in the middle of it. And that really IS a FYL.

This has to be one of the most ******-up FML's ever published.

In short, yes. Although really what I deplore is trying to teach students a foreign language when they are incapable of speaking/writing their first in a coherent manner.

Wait a second!!! Originally, it said "boyfriend,"not "husband." Unless you know that, most of the comment wouldn't make sense. The last sentence still rocks!

It says husband. Maybe the earlier post was a mistake. Maybe they are newlyweds.
