Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my stepdad punched me in the face after I told him I hated him. He and my mom came in 10 minutes later to try to convince me that I'd made it up in my head that he'd punched me. My face was still red. FML
Today, I was watching a movie with my family in which a character said "Fuck you, dad." My dad then slapped me over the head to get my attention and said, "Never talk to your father like that." Okay, dad. FML
Today, I was at a restaurant when I heard a young girl telling her father she didn't think she was pretty. When I got up to leave, I walked past her table and told her she was beautiful. Her dad then punched me in the face. FML
Today, I thought it would be funny to scare my dad for once, since he has scared me for fun dozens of times. It would have been funny, had he not punched me in the face. FML
Today, my sister punched me in the face. My dad was actually annoyed with me when I told him. He said I'll never be a "real man" if I can't take a hit from a girl. FML
Today, I was trying to take a nice picture of my dad but he was just doing stupid-looking poses, so I got mad and told him to "stop acting like a prostitute" without knowing what that even means. Keep in mind, this was also in front of my mum and oldest sister. FML
Today, I tried to hang up a light and, in my clumsiness, got shocked. My dad started screaming at me for yelling out. FML
Today, my dad and mom and I were going out to eat dinner. My dad wanted a romantic dinner just with my mom so he told me to make an excuse not to go. I did, which ended up as a huge fight, grounded and phone taken away. My dad just stood there in the background putting thumbs up. FML
Today, my father decided to "prepare" me for the real world by telling me that I'm ugly. FML
Today, my dad set my hair on fire while cooking. He then tried to convince me that it spontaneously combusted. FML

And then you take a selfie of you with him in the background, setting you on fire. All about that #selfie

That is the correct response to the use of the word selfie

I don't get why everyone is saying YDI. Selfie is an official word now; it's even in the Oxford dictionary. Yes it's annoying that every time I turn around someone is talking about one, but the use of the word alone isn't justification for that threat.

I hope that sentence wasn't "But first let me take a selfie". If it was, then you deserve it.

Why so much YDI? I think the word selfie is annoying and stupid but it's not heinous and it's easier to say than "picture of myself".

OP, if you came here for sympathy after saying #selfie, you came to the wrong place

I don't understand all the YDIs. We don't know the context. There are so many contexts of the word "selfie" that would be completely okay and that shouldn't initiate such an alarming reaction from the OP's own father. All we know is that she used the word.

The word selfie is never ok
