Today, I spent 2 hours making the perfect card for my dad for Father's Day. When I handed it to him, he smiled and said "Thank you" and then killed a fly with it. I found it in the trash a couple of hours later. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my dad found the Father's Day present that I spent at least ten hours preparing and decorating. I'd expected him to be extremely happy about this lovely gift. His only reaction was to ask if he could exchange it for something else. FML
Today, a wasp somehow got into my parents' house, so I went hunting for it with my dad. I found it and, after getting into position, took a strong swing at it with a fly swatter. Unfortunately, being very uncoordinated, I missed. You can figure out the rest. FML
Today, while I was eating, a fly kept pissing me off. After three minutes of it buzzing around, I caught it and killed it. Then, without realizing it, I smeared its guts all over the front of my shirt. FML
Today, I flew home from college to see my parents. Later I found the expensive painting and hand-made necklace I mailed to my mom for mother's day while taking out the trash. FML
Today, my Dad and I killed a cockroach with a large metal pole. It was the most bonding experience we have ever had. FML
Today, me and my dad's birthdays are both a week apart. For his birthday I'd given him a cute card with a dog on it that said happy birthday, and inside it had 200$. A week later, he gave me the same card, but it was empty. FML
Today, I asked a coworker what she'd bought her dad for father's day. She said that she got him some flowers, and I laughed because I thought it was a rather feminine gift for a man. I later found out that the flowers were for his grave. FML
Today, at lunch, a fly was buzzing around my food. I managed to kill the fly in my napkin in midair. I continued my lunch, pleased with my amazing ninja skills. When I was done with my lunch, I wiped my mouth with the napkin. I can still taste bug guts. Karma. FML
Today, I spent 3 hours making a birthday card for my boyfriend, delicately cutting each letter out of printed coloured paper. He used it as a coffee coaster. FML
Today, my son tried to swat a fly with a hammer. Our apartment walls are now littered with dents and holes. FML

I bet if it had a naked chick on it he wouldn't have thrown it away, mind you it'd probably be really awkward.

Same thing happened to me! Except I was 9 and after I gave him the card I went upstairs only to come back a minute later and find my dad cleaning up a mess he made on the table with it. He asked me to throw it away. FYL.

Most guys I know don't really give a damn about cards. That's why I stopped making homemade cards when I was like 8. Although I think your dad should of held onto it for atleast a day or two to show he appreciated the thought and effort. And look on the bright side: now you know not to waste your time and effort making him a card.

it's something my neighbor would do actually and he's really redneck so that's why :)
Keyman1212 14
Well shit, anywhere in the United States other than Texas, people would call me a redneck because I wear boots, jeans, and a cowboy hat. But in Texas, I'm just one sharp dressed individual.

Funny, you got your too's mixed up. Also, a sentence should never start with the word but. Nothing against rednecks and I'm sure you are smart people just made me chuckle :p
Keyman1212 14
In many instances of sentence structure, conjunctions will do a better job than more formal constructions. Modernist English teachers and Professors agree that but, and, and other such conjunctions can be a start to a sentence, as long as the outcome does not result in choppy sentence structure. Go **** yourself 'bro'.

Wellll, as a person born and raised in Virginia, it is something most rednecks would do. Not all rednecks of course, but majority of rednecks would prefer a gift rather than a card.
