Today, I woke up early and spent hours baking and icing a three-tier cake for my friend's eighteenth birthday, which is this evening. I just found out my mother threw it in the compost bin because she's on a diet and it was "tempting" her. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I spent hours baking a multi-layered, detailed cake from scratch for my mom's birthday. It took two seconds for my dog to devour the cake while I picked up a spoon I dropped on the floor. FML
Today, I tried to bake a cake for my friend's birthday. It turned out looking more like a science experiment gone wrong than a cake. FML
Today, my parents threw out the beautiful birthday cake my aunt made me, and served celery sticks at my party because I need to "watch my weight." FML
Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I baked a cake for when my mum came home. I did everything I needed to do and put it in the oven, set the timer and went to do some things around the house. When my mum came home, she asked why there was a uncooked cake mix sitting in the oven. I forgot to turn the oven on. FML
Today, to be nice, I baked cookies for my step-mom as a birthday present. I burnt my hand while putting them in the oven, but I'd hoped it would be worth it. When she got home, I gave one for her to try. She took a bite, spit it out, and threw it on the floor, asking if it was a joke or if I was really trying to poison her. FML
Today, it was my friend's birthday, so I baked him a cake complete with his name written on it in homemade frosting. After I gave it to him, his mother berated me for it, saying I should have checked with her first before making a cake for her son. He's 28. FML
Today, I spent two hours making a cake that I'd promised my class for weeks. I boarded the train to school, but soon dozed off. A few minutes later, I awoke with a start and noticed a chunk of the cake missing and a homeless man next to me with frosting around his mouth. FML
Today, a coworker left a chocolate cake on the "free food" table in the office. I had a slice. She's just called to ask if she left her grandmother's birthday cake at work. She made it from scratch. Now I'm baking a new cake in the office kitchen. FML
Today, I bought my mother an apple pie. She made a face at it and said that she'd decided to go on a diet. After I'd left the house, she put it in the oven, forgot about it, and burnt it to a crisp. She then called me up to inform me that I'd wasted my money, and to get her "another damn pie." FML

Wow, that's hella selfish, I would make her buy one to make up for it.

The amount of rage that would well up within me could never be measured by any means of the measurement system, should I have been in that situation... Your mother had a lousy excuse and I really hope she does something to make up for her selfish behavior.

Did you take a picture of it? Because showing your friend that picture will tell him/her just how much they mean to you, regardless of whether it was thrown away or not, and they will sympathise with the fact that it was thrown away

FML is scary sometimes. I don't like to think that people are this insane without medical help.

Well, out of all the bitchy moms on FML, yours takes the cake. FYL of course. The icing on the (this time, metaphorical) cake is that the fact that she can't even look at cake on her diet now indicates that once it's finished she'll probably eat like crazy and regain the weight anyways- which makes this whole thing suck more. Good luck fixing the situation OP.

If all these FML stories are true, we live in a completely f@cked up world of selfish, moody and ignorant people.

So sad that the woman doesn't have enough self control to say no to a cake that wasn't baled by her nor for her. I woulda told her she could bake another one right now and no isn't an option. My friend isn't going without a birthday cake because your dumbass is so pathetic that I can't even bake a cake for my friends birthday.

Who throws out a perfectly good cake just because they don't want to eat it, or are on diet? Your mom is a bastard.
