Today, my father bet me $200 that since my boyfriend is "such a stupid shit," he wouldn't be able to locate Paraguay on a map. I gladly accepted the bet. Not only did he not know where it is, he actually accused us of making the country up. FML

Today, my crush won the bet that I made with him yesterday. The bet? That he couldn't land a date by the end of the day. Not only am I down $10, but a possible boyfriend too. FML

Today, I had an argument with my dad about Venice being in Italy, not Spain. He wouldn't believe me, and had to Google it. He's an engineer for an aerospace company. FML

Today, my sister finally broke down and told me that our dad gambled away of all my college savings, and I would have to pay for school the best way I can. They have known for months, and when I asked why nobody told me, the reply was, "You're a college boy, we thought you would figure it out." FML

Today, just to win a bet against my mum that he could make me scream like a bitch, my dad faked his own suicide. He went the whole mile: fake blood everywhere, fake gun, yelling "Goodbye!" and playing a loud gunshot sound effect from his PC, everything. My dad won; my underwear lost. FML

Today, I had to suffer through a two-hour long trivia game with my boyfriend's family. As if that wasn't annoying enough, my boyfriend caused the pair of us to lose by just a single point, because he answered "Quebec" to the question of "What is the capital city of France?" FML

Today, my dad went through all the trouble of sneaking onto my laptop and photoshopping a bong into my Facebook profile picture, apparently just so he could win a €20 bet with my mom, that hinged on her grounding me by December. FML

6 some people don't know where it is, doesn't mean you have to call them idiots. It's not like you were born and you already knew the whole map

I'm pretty sure anyone with a decent education knows where it is. At the very least they should know that it exists.

We didn't really study many Latin countries in high school. I knew of its existence and it's general whereabouts but I didn't know exactly where it was until I took Spanish in college. I know know where and what the capital is for all the Latin american countries.

@everyone who said not everyone knows... there was a survey done and most Americans can't even locate countries they have been at war with.. UK Vietnam Russia and Cuba. so this FML doesn't surprise me...go learn some geography please or visit another country to see how other people live. the sad fact is I'm part american. but I know where shit is. now, OP you could get him to pay for a holiday over there for you two, I hear its quite mild this time of year.

88 - I strongly disagree. xXHugoIchagoXx has a strong understanding and has probably mastered the art of masturbation. At his age, that's probably about it. I remember what a little know it all I thought I was at 15
