Today, my dad confessed that the only reason I'm alive today is because he couldn't afford to pay for an abortion. He couldn't afford it because he'd splashed out on brand new furniture at IKEA shortly before discovering my mom was pregnant. FML

Your dad doesn't have extra cash saved away for an emergency? What a terrible father.

So did you come in a bunch of peices and have to be assembled like everything at IKEA? Personally I'm too fucking lazy to assemble it myself

#9, he could have extra cash saved up for an emergency *now*, but at the time he found out of the pregnancy, he may not even have been a father yet.
Besides, not having an emergency stash doesn't make you a terrible father, just a slightly irresponsible person. Or poor.

There have been 17 replies to number 1's comment and not one of them are about how horrible that comment was. A fishhook? Seriously? Don't even joke about such a thing. Abortion is a serious, emotionally heavy issue and many women die of botched abortions every year. Not funny.

#173 it was coat hook, not fish hook.
And it's FML, a jokey site, not a serious site. Serious issues shouldn't be on here for that reason. Lighten up guysssssss, I see bad humour aren't your strong points.
If you can't joke about things on a jokey site, where can you joke about them?
This world would be a pretty dull place if everything was taken seriously.

I agree, this is a "jokey" site and we all need to be in a "jokey" mood once in a while. But abortion is a serious issue which should never be joked about in that manner. It kills lives, which those who decide to kill the life don't even have the right to do so. This whole FML just shows me that much more about how America is growing into a detestable country.

I am a vain teenager, although I'm not quite sure how you geussed vanity from my profile.. vanity tends to apply to appearance, which to be fair is true, but I don't have many photos on here.
Maybe you mean arrogant?
Which would be right.. On my good days.
Better to be arrogant and vain, than shy, withdrawn and trampled on..
Anyway, I don't know all.. obviously.
But glad you took your time to read my profile and hate on me. Much appreciated.
The original comment was intended as a bad-humored type, this being a humorous site, not a serious debate site.

Weird, my baby brother almost died from a mantelpiece that almost landed on him. If it weren't for another piece of furniture, then he would be dead today...

From this day forward, you will buy all of your furniture from IKEA in gratitude that you live to fight another day!
Secondly, don't feel bad. Trust me when I say, if my parents had the chance to give me back they would, but thats not important. What is important, is that you can make something of yourself and make your father regret ever thinking about paying for that abortion.
