Today, I photoshopped a picture for my Facebook profile so my stomach would look a little flatter. I came back later, only to find someone had said, "What in God's name is this? Is your belly duck-facing?" and half a dozen other insults. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I asked my friend to crop me out of her profile picture on Facebook because I look terrible in it. She responded that she wasn't going to, because it made her look better. FML
Today, I uploaded what I thought were beautiful selfies. One of my "friends" commented, "I've seen what your whole body looks like, so that's why you take only headshots. You're not fooling anybody, fatty." His comment got 18 likes. I took down the photos and spent the rest of my afternoon in tears. FML
Today, my friends and I were messing around with an app on my phone that makes your picture look fat. My picture looked the same before and after. FML
Today, my friend found a picture of herself on a website filled with pictures of thin people. I was in the picture, also. I was crossed-out with the word, "EWW" written next to me. FML
Today, I posted a picture of me without makeup on Facebook. A "friend" commented, "fuk me thts hideus!!" My dad replied, "Hideous, yes, just like your godawful spelling!" My mom yelled at my dad for agreeing with the guy, and they're still fighting. Meanwhile, my self-esteem is in the gutter. FML
Today, I was looking through pictures on Facebook. There was a picture of me and my friends with the caption "I love you guys!" below. I had been cropped out. FML
Today, I was at a friend's house when his dad told me that he had Photoshopped his face onto a woman's body. I looked at the photo and said it was gross, disgusting, and weird. Later on, my friend told me that the photo was actually a picture of his dad's twin sister. FML
Today, my dad finally added me on Facebook, When I looked through his photos, I quickly noticed he'd heavily photoshopped the photos I'm in to make me look prettier. FML
Today, I uploaded a new Facebook profile photo, which got over 20 likes in the space of an hour. The most I've ever gotten before was 10. Surprised, I went to check my picture again, only to notice two guys were sarcastically flipping me the bird in the background. FML
Today, I posted a photo on Facebook showing a side-by-side view of me before and after I'd tried out my new makeup. My dad commented, "What is this, Gollum cosplaying an Orc?" My mum, brother, and over 20 "friends" liked his comment. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

People always using photoshop these days. Wtf. A picture of you should be the real you not a fake. Don't become a plastic girl. Just loose the weight if u don't like how u look.

50/50 here. I know how it feels to want to make yourself look thinner/better than you actually do because of all the cruel people in the world, particularly the ones who hate anyone that's over a size 6 or 8. That's why so many people are anorexic and bulemic. However, OP shouldn't have Photoshopped their picture because anyone who really knows them would be able to see past it, and obviously comments like the duck face one would ensue. But contrary to what many think, it's not that easy for everyone to lose weight. There could be a genetic issue, low metabolism, or even a health problem. Some people live off rabbit food (lettuce and salads) and exercise but still can't lose weight. Others eat enough junk food to make Willy Wonka blush and not gain a pound. It all varies. So that argument is invalid.

It's not invalid. Using genetics as a crutch is idiotic. "People living off rabbit food and losing no weight" are still doing it wrong, you have to eat foods that get your metabolism going. Studies have shown that you can actually influence your future genetic pool by using proper fitness techniques. Stop encouraging people to live sedimently just because there "could be a genetic problem."

The only time I Photoshop pictures for facebook is if I'm doing something that's obviously fake like on the red carpet or something.
