Today, my wife is threatening divorce because I won't hire her son, my stepson, at the company I work at. Even the lowest position at my company requires a degree in computing, and prior experience. My stepson dropped out of high school to "discover himself" 12 years ago. FML

Today, I read that using vegetable oil would give your legs a smooth feel, especially if you haven't shaved for weeks. So I tried it out. My legs felt slimy, the oil clogged up the blades, and I was reduced to shaving my legs with a naked razor head and soapy water. Endlessly smooth indeed. FML

All I can think of when I read this FML is the movie "The Birds". Where the birds attack the humans.

Not sure why all of you took this as if they meant being pooped on is worse. What they meant was the bird could have also pooped on the OP, and to look at the bright side.
