Today, I wanted revenge on the rabbit who ate my garden's plants. When he returned, he was standing next to my brand new above-ground swimming pool. I pull out my 22. rifle and shot at it, but the bullet missed and popped a hole in my pool. 15,000 gallons of water flooded my basement. FML

Today, I heard a gunshot not too far from the house. This is not unusual, as I live way out in the boonies and hunters tend to roam the woods. What isn't normal is a stray bullet hitting my above-ground pool, which promptly split open and released a torrent of water that flooded my basement. FML
Today, while mowing my backyard, I messily discovered that a family of rabbits has been living out there in the tall grass. FML
Today, a few freshmen jumped my fence. They decided to take a dip in the pool, so I pulled out a paintball gun. I unloaded over 100 rounds, painting their backs bright yellow. It also dyed my pool yellow, and it'll apparently cost around $500 to repair. FML
Today, I wanted revenge on my neighbor, whose dog craps in my yard, so I spent a day at the dog park gathering up dog shit. I piled it up by the property line and ran over it with the mower, intending to spray his driveway and car with turds. Instead, it gummed up the mower. Now it stinks too bad to fix. FML
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Today, I was on my back patio talking with my husband. It got dark outside, and I saw something shuffling in the back yard. I freaked out so bad that I went to run inside, only to fly face-first into the screen door. Turns out the shuffling was a baby rabbit. FML
Today, my 6 ft snake got loose. I found it. It was in my neighbor's backyard, constricting their pet rabbit. FML
Today, I shot my boyfriend in the balls by mistake, twice. First it was a paintball gun I was using with my nephew, then it was a slingshot I use to scare away the bird who keeps eating fish from my pond. He is now sat icing his groin acting like I did it on purpose. FML
Today, I drove home on my birthday, and my mom said she'd meet me there. I was a little surprised to get home and find she wasn't there, but even more shocked to see my rabbit run over in my driveway. Turns out he'd gotten loose and my mom had run him over, panicked, and left. FML
Today, after I warned my son repeatedly that if he wanted a rabbit he had to clean and feed it, I checked on it. It wasn’t just dead, it was dead and rotting in a pool of its own pee and faeces. I yelled at him, but he just shrugged and told me rabbits are boring and he forgot it was even there. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Not only did you try to kill it instead of just relocating it, but you tried to justify your shit aim with 'the bullet missed' instead of 'I missed'. This one calls for a YDI unfortunately.

Sounds like a Tom & Jerry episode.

GTFO. Maybe you should have fenced your garden. You completely deserve it, I hope you were at least planning on eating it.

Have you ever heard of this great thing called a fence? it would have saved you a lot of time and money, and you wouldn't have to shoot at an innocent animal for trying to survive. YDI.

First off OP wasn’t shooting the rabbit because it was “eating”, he shooting at it because it was eating HIS GARDEN, ON HIS PROPERTY. The rabbit had it coming, it’s obviously been eating away at OP garden numerous times and it was the last straw. 2. You retards act as if the rabbit’s only food source is OP’s garden, do you think the rabbit going to starve to death if it doesn’t have OP’s garden in its stomach? WTF did the rabbit eat before OP’s garden then. How do you know OP wasn’t living off his “useless” garden, and is now not starving to death just like the rabbit. 3. STFU about “innocent animals”, OP shouldn’t kill it because it’s an innocent animal? You people are such hypocrites, how many so-called innocent animals do you kill everyday for your food, cloths, entertainment, shelter and just for sheer convenience. ALL animals are innocent you idiots, so why make a big deal over this one? O yah that’s right i forgot it’s because it’s a fuzzy wuzzy, cute and cuddly, furry wurry innocent little bunny, just like the ones you find at the pet store right. Just because it has no fangs and claws and shows no sign of danger in any way to us as humans, it must mean it has more of a right than other animals not to be shot at? Give me a ******* break ....... what OP did was far from animal abuse. 4. “OP just put up a fence”, brilliant idea everyone cause we all know wild animals are too stupid, and can’t simply dig, hop, climb, jump, leap, barrel or tunnel their way past a fence. How stupid of OP to forget that fences are animal proof. Maybe OP should go out and buy the fence we all ASSUME he doesn’t have already, or better yet he should just upgrade his fence to the rabbit blocker 4000 model, i heard that one really stops the cute innocent fuzzy bunnies from getting into your yard. 5. YDI for not tracking the rabbit down after you missed it and giving it a slow and painful death. Revenge is a dish best severed cold, with a side of slaughtered rabbit. FYL no one should have a flooded basement over a rabbit

I fully condone the killing of pests, but this is still a YDI since you shot in the direction of your pool. I bet all the people screaming "OMG ANIMAL MURDERER" kill things like cockroaches and spiders on a regular basis without an ounce of remorse. The only reason they have sympathy for the rabbit is because it's "cute."
