Today, I got an invitation in the mail for my dad's third wedding. My first name was misspelled on the envelope. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, despite checking, double-checking, and triple-checking before we sent them to every member of our friends and family, some who live in foreign countries, our wedding invitations somehow had not one, but two spelling mistakes. They misspelled my surname and the address of the church. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. Everything went great, except that no one showed up. Apparently, the address of the invitation was typed wrong. FML
Today, my dad, who lives hours away, called and told me he was getting married. Today. As in this evening. Guess I'm not invited. FML
Today, my soon to be mother-in-law sent out the invitations she made for my wedding. On them, it says "You are invited to this 'special' event". In the same way, I'm referred to as "special", and my name is misspelled. Hint taken, you bitch. FML
Today, I received a birthday card from my dad, over a week late. It was addressed to me using my maiden name, the enclosed check also made out to me using my maiden name. I've been married for over 10 years. FML
Today, I drove 2 hours to my sister's wedding, only to find out my invitation was sent to me by mistake. She had me kicked out. FML
Today, I was doing a little victory jig after finally sending out the last of the invitation cards for my wedding when I realised that I had forgotten to put the date of the event on them. FML
Today, I found out that my dad, thinking it was an advertisement, threw away a letter from the college I applied to. FML
Today, I got a birthday card in the mail from my aunt. I got all excited when I saw a cheque inside, but the cheque was addressed to the wrong name. Not only did my own aunt forget my name, I couldn't even bank the $60. FML
Today, we received a wedding invitation from a couple who are renting an apartment from us. They haven't paid rent for several months. My father is listed as the "principal sponsor." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I have to wonder, do people just select "ydi" for the hell of it? Even if you have a strange name that his bride wasn't sure how to spell, it still isn't your fault, seeing as you didn't choose it.

Probably because the wife-to-be made the card, chill out.

Actually it sucks. Having been there trust me, it sucks. My name was misspelled on the invitation to my brother's wedding. And the place card, and the thank you card. Even if someone else is writing the address, if you aren't positive how to spell an immediate family member's name, you should check, cause it sucks when someone who should know how to spell your name for something that important - doesn't.

Dude at least you GOT an invitation. My ass of a father didn't invite me to his wedding and I found out from my new stepmom two weeks later that they had gotten married. I didn't even know they were engaged. To top it off, my dad changed his last name to my stepmom's.
