Today, I thought I would surprise my dad by mowing our entire 2 acre lawn. When he got home, instead of being grateful like I had hoped, he yelled at me for cutting in vertical lines instead of horizontal. FML

Do it in spirals next time!

For being ungrateful, you should punish him by mowing a giant penis into the yard,,, or if you want to be really mean,, you could make that original penis, label it "average", and then mow in a comparably small one and label it "Dad/his actual name" (by labeling, I mean you mow the words average and dad/his actual name below the respective penises) and then take a picture of both from the roof of your house and send them to all his know acquaintances (from an anonymous email address) and then mow the areas around them to hide your handiword

The solution is to just never mow the lawn again, even if he asks you to, just say he didn't like how you did it last time so you better not do it again.

That worked for me w/ my ex. She screamed at me for quiting before the job was done as I drank a coke - I was taking a small break between mowing and trimming (it was a really hot day). I said, "Fine, you do it from now on."

Dude! WTF? Is he Obsessive Compulsive or something?

Lots of people are picky about their lawns.

Sounds about like my dad. My FML was rejected though a while back, which is odd since they're practically the same story. Mine was about my dad screaming at me that I was insane because I wasted 3 spaghetti noodles while making dinner for my family. Yeah, aren't fathers great?

Ha ha I guess u should know how your dad likes the lawn if he is that picky about it. FYL for having such an ungrateful dad tho. He should have thanked u and asked nicely for u to do the lines different next time

you can't cut a lawn in vertical lines... vertical means up and down

Dude...yer not serious are you? You CAN cut vertical. I doesn't mean up to the sky and down to the ground. It means up and down, as in, that's how the line looks. Horizontal is left to right.

What a prick. Just take his car and go do dougnuts in it and see if he likes that look better.

YDI for not being psychic >.> Seriously, does your dad have OCD or something? If you did it right he should STFU.

Next time cut it in the shape of a large penis. That will teach the ungrateful ass. 
