Today, I had to take my 15-year-old son to the hospital. He'd gone out dressed as some My Little Pony character and encountered someone who'd had the same idea. They then got into a fistfight, and my son got the shit beaten out of him. I wish I'd never bred. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my son got a beating. Apparently, he went to a club, waited until he saw a couple of girls pulling a duckface for a photo, then rushed over and threw pieces of bread at them. Their boyfriends, not too surprisingly, didn't appreciate this. I had to drive the idiot home from the hospital. FML
Today, our daughter was going to a cosplay event, until her dad saw the costume, or lack thereof, that she was planning to wear in public, with people taking photographs of her. He got so mad, he actually burst a blood vessel in his neck and had to go to hospital. She still went to the event. FML
Today, a punk-looking college kid was making fun of my mentally handicapped son. Out of anger, I punched him in the face. I got handcuffed and thrown into a police car. The kid stood there laughing and pointing at me. FML
Today, my son visited for the first time in three years, asking to stay a while. It turns out he insulted someone online and gave his address in case they wanted to fight him. They accepted the offer, and so my son's imaginary Muay Thai skills went AWOL, along with his testicles. FML
Today, my ex had the bright idea of trying to bond with our son by taking him to a UFC fight. Our son is only 8 and autistic. It’s been hours and he hasn’t stopped crying about the "big scary men that kept hurting each other." FML
Today, my 15-year-old son got so enraged at a fly that kept harassing him, that he ended up slapping himself in the face as it flew by him. This caused him to fall out of his chair, at which point he broke down into a mess of tears, humiliating me in front of everyone. FML
Today, some muscle-head showed up at my house and started beating on me. Turned out my son had been posing online as a Navy SEAL, using a picture of me, and had dared this guy to come over and fight him. FML
Today, my son, who to my great shame is a typical bully, was suspended for bullying a disabled girl. Her father must have been the biggest, meanest, most tattooed ex-marine I've ever seen. He blamed me for bad parenting, and I actually peed myself a little in fear, which he saw too. FML
Today, my son broke his hand when he and his best friend had the genius idea of punching each other in the fists as hard as they could. FML
Today, I grounded my son after finding out that he's been bullying other kids at school. He got mad and screamed at me, calling me a "bastard". Instead of defending me, my wife got pissed and accused me of having taught our son to swear like that. I can never win. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm tired of reading these "Don't judge he has a freedom to express himself". If a male of any age over 5 dresses up like a MLP character; it's weird.

Deal with it.

You and me wanna hang out anywhere BUT the next BronyCon thinking its weird?? To me MLP should be as effeminate as Sailor Moon or Barbie. Anyone over 7 that's male and likes ponies are nuts, or would be called "sissies" in the 90's! It blows my mind. How this meant for 5 year old girls show has fans over 40? And male?! And damned proud!?

#121 get your sexism out of here. Men have just as much right to watch the show as women do and shouldn't be judged for it.

That's horrible that you would say that of your child. You should be ashamed.

You're a piece of shit for the last sentence. You're disowning your son cause he lost in a fight. You don't need children.

lol the other person that had the same idea was a girl right? Props to your son though. It is good to be different

I doubt the shame is with dressing up or losing, but rather getting into a fistfight for a beyond retarded reason.

Did he dress up as Snowflake? That pegasus is buff.

What's with 15 year old boys and my little pony? My brother is 15 too and he likes that show.

It's not only 15 yr old boys. I know numerous men ages 30 and up who love mlp. There's nothing weird about guys liking it. Just because its a "girls" show doesn't mean boys can't like it. No one ever complains about girls liking "boys" shows. So why complain about guys liking mlp?

Why is my little pony so popular

Why is anything so popular? Hmmm maybe because things can, you know, be good.

This is the same scenario as two chicks who went to prom and noticed they wore the same dress.
