Today, my dad made me quit my online school classes and go back to public school, because apparently when I'm on the computer, it makes his video games lag. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. FML
Today, my father told me I was becoming violent because of the video games I play. I was playing Minecraft. FML
Today, my dad grounded me for two weeks for profusely swearing at my misbehaving laptop. After some arguing, he actually accepted my half-joking offer to play a game of CoD over it. His condition was that if I lost, my grounding period would double. We played. He kicked my ass. FML
Today, my dad made a big show of sending me to my room and grounding me for a week. Not because he heard me cursing at my video game, but because I "swear like a little girl" and it embarrassed him in front of his friends. FML
Today, I found out my dad got Covid after spending the weekend at home. All my classes have me doing final projects, and my dorm's internet is a dumpster fire. FML
Today, my parents got a call from my principal. I'd been lying that I couldn’t see the work I had to do in my online class, because I was behind and I needed to catch up. Tomorrow my parents are getting a call, telling them the dates I've been logged into the online learning. I haven’t logged in in weeks. FML
Today, my parents moved my senile grandpa in with us, but he keeps yelling at me for gaming and sometimes just switches my computer off. This is my house, not theirs. I work remotely, I’m not gaming, and their unemployed asses can’t even watch him closely enough to keep him out of my home office. FML
Today, I finally realized the reason my son's grades have been dropping so much. Every time I drop him off at his tutor's house, they play Call of Duty until I pick him up. FML
Today, I sold all of my son's games and gadgets because he got a horrible report card. It turned out that the school made some sort of a mistake and it wasn't his actual report card. He actually got great grades. I tried to apologize but he told me to fuck off. FML
Today, my 12-year-old son played QWOP on my laptop. Half an hour later, he virtually destroyed it in a fit of rage. FML

thats just gonna get more flames by saying they all suck or even by saying theyre all the same (dont ask me why) but to stop the flame you need to say theyre all the same in a way that the fanboys don't understand and think that the game He likes is being talked about as the dominant.

What's with all the ydi's? How does op deserve this? At my time of commenting, roughly 8,000 fyls and 1000 ydis. A 1 in 8 ratio? Wow. On a side note, you should erase his profiles on his game. (If it's that kind of game) >:]

Online school is bullshit. Good for your dad.

Am I the only one who's noticed how MW LOSES features as it goes on? Dedicated servers, free multiplayer services, mod support, campaign focus (without a bot mod, internet-free areas can be a pain), the list goes on. Personally, I waited on MW2 for reviews, and am glad I didn't buy it. Same with Black Ops. Considering trying MW3, but not for $60. 275: Streaming game packets (both up and downloading) and streaming video can take a lot of bandwidth. Also, online education isn't the best... And couldn't you go to a library? They usually have damn fast wifi, are quiet, and some have free food/coffee.

It sounds like my mom's boyfriend... he won't let me use more than one tab at once, because "it makes his SW:TOR lag" Haha, the fate of the galaxy depends on him, so I better not use Facebook and YouTube all at once...
