Today, I was visiting my daughter, whose husband was still asleep at noon. I made a point of stomping around on the hardwood floor and speaking loudly to wake his lazy ass up. Turns out he's now working a 14-hour graveyard shift, and it has no negative effect on his shoe-throwing skills. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was beating the hell out of one of the most useless employees ever. I mean really laying into him, all while telling him for the umpteenth time how to do his job right. Then my husband informed me I was hitting him in my sleep. FML
Today, after 3 days of interrupted sleep, I confronted my new neighbor about the noise his wife keeps making during their "private time". He then let me know the noise is actually from his daughter, who's mentally disabled and isn't taking the move well. FML
Today, after a very poor night's sleep, I've had to stay awake and do housework while my husband, who slept like a baby last night, keeps on sleeping because he "didn't sleep well." He was snoring all night long, the reason I didn't sleep well. FML
Today, I left my husband in charge of the house for a day. When I returned, I saw him gaming through the window, so I stormed in and yelled at him. Then, my eyes adjusted, and I saw the neatly folded laundry, clean kitchen, vacuumed rugs, and my son, who was asleep until I woke him. Whoops. FML
Today, I'm working 12-hour overnight shifts for the next three days. My fiancee can't seem to grasp the concept of sleeping during the day, and keeps coming into the bedroom and telling me to stop being lazy. FML
Today, I'm an insomniac. My husband knows this but still woke me up throwing a fit because he lost a round on his stupid fucking cellphone game. He has to watch a 15 second ad for another life; meanwhile, I’ll be lucky if I fall back asleep before the sun comes up. FML
Today, my newborn daughter has kept me up all day and all night for the past few days. Usually my husband sleeps. I finally cracked and yelled for his help, only for him to scream at me that he needs sleep and gives her to me anyway. FML
Today, I was having trouble sleeping due to jet lag. I was finally sleepy and looking forward to a decent night of rest when my 4 year-old woke up and refused to stay in his room or try to rest. The next two hours involved him shouting at me, kicking me, and crying because he wanted Daddy, who is on a business trip. FML
Today, my husband yelled at me for asking him to get the kids ready for school after he got off work. He works overnights, so I figured that since he's already awake, he can help out, since I'm not a morning person at all. Apparently he needs sleep "IMMEDIATELY" once he gets off work. FML
Today, my husband is miserable. He couldn't sleep. He tried to make me feel bad for sleeping through the night. I was medicated from a brain scan. His is work is horrible, and no one understands, etc. He's mad that I took a walk. Now, as I am frustrated and crying, he is laughing on the phone with his coworkers. FML

If you we're my mother in law, I would have chunked more than a shoe at your freaking judgemental ass. YDI for not paying attention to your families life. Asscandle

That's what you get for judging a book by it's cover. One concern though. Why the hell would he throw a shoe at you?

Yeah, the shoe was a bit of an overreaction. That said, the OP was a rude bitch and deserved it completely.

Definitely deserved this. You're a bitch. And if your daughter is perfectly content with her husband sleeping til noon, leave her be.

Why did you have to try and wake him up anyway? Even if he wasn't working a night shift, he's a grown man and it is NONE of your business when he sleeps. I'm a night owl, I stay up late and sleep late unless I have to work. It doesn't mean I'm lazy, it means I do things at a different time than some other people. I still clean my house, run my errands, go to the gym, etc. You need to start minding your own damn business. I hope the shoe he threw at you was steel toed.

I feel sorry your daughters husband has a nasty, passive aggressive, cunty, monster-in-law. You can't assume the circumstances, and no matter what they are it is not your place to say who can sleep what hours. People are entitled to keep their own hours.

You are a bitch. How dare you, as a visitor in his home, decide what time he should wake up. You are lucky all he did was throw a shoe at you. Had that been me, I would have smacked you on side of your head and kicked your ass out until you got off you throne and learned some manners.

Rearrange the letters in "mother in law" and you get "woman hitler".

A lot of these comments have been negative, but mine will be a little more understanding. My dad sleeps all day. He lives in the basement that was renovated into a room and he'll sleep ALL DAY unless someone wakes him up. To keep up appearances, he'll hobble out of bed long enough to wave to my mom as she goes to work and then crawls back in bed to sleep. If her daughter had made any kind of passing complaint to OP, then OP would have feelings of resentment. And if the OP is a 'fixer' like a lot of people are, I think it's understandable for her to want to help her daughter out. Maybe get him back a little. However, the fact that he works so late could've been something the daughter neglected to say. Either way, yes, what the OP did was wrong, I hear you. But I think name calling is kind of unjustified. :( Good luck, OP.
