Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I saw selfies of my aunt and her friends on Facebook having a great time. They took the pictures at my mother's funeral last week. FML

Today, I looked at my twelve-year-old daughter's test. One of the question was, "When is a good time to worry about your parents?" Her answer was, "When they take selfies, because selfies aren't made for old people." FML

Are you kidding me?
Today, my mom talked me into going to a funeral since my dad wouldn't go. It was for one of her classmates. When it was our time to view the casket, we paused in front of it for a second before my mom leans over to me and says, "What if I told you that was really your dad?" FML

Today, I was taking a selfie. My grandma saw me, then after smirking to herself, she went and told my parents that I was "doing that sexting thing". They believed her and grounded me, even after I showed that all my photos and sent messages were totally innocent. FML

Today, my dad stopped me mid-sentence and said he wanted to punch me in the face and set me on fire for using the word "selfie". FML

Today, I've had so many family members die in the past 4 years, I now think of which pictures would look good at people's funerals when I look through photo albums. FML

Intentional?
Today, I intentionally caused my parents to have an intensely heated argument when I asked them how and where they first met. Dad said it was at a funeral, and mom said it was at a burial. FML

Today, while at my aunt's funeral, my grandma who has terrible memory loss asked me whose funeral we were at. I had to explain to her that her daughter had died. FML

You never know
Today, I saw my teacher using her phone in the middle of class, so to joke around with her, seeing as we're on pretty good terms, I said: "Using your phone in class? For shame." She looks me in the eyes and says, "Would it be OK if I told you I'm arranging my father's funeral?" FML

50, comments like that are what made me seriously consider picking "not to be " when I read Hamlet. Not that I expect you to have read it anyway :/

People, Obama didn't take selfies at Mandela's funeral. It was at the memorial service. They were two different events! Sorry, but the pedant in me was itching to say something.

When Obama did it it was a memorial service. This memorial service was much different than what we are accustomed to. It was a celebration of life full of joyful singing, dancing, and testimonies, not the usual all black, slow walking, and depressing music filled service.

Well, if Barack Obama and Helle Thorning Schmidt did it at Nelson Mandelas memorial, then why not??

Even our parents are not exempt from rude, thoughtless and stupid behavior it seems; all we can do at times is look and learn what not to do and who not to be like.
