Today, my grandmother ripped her pants. We all got a big view of her pink thong. FML

Body issues
Today, while I'm in the depths of postpartum blues and insecurities, my grandmother in-law gifted me a size 22 pair of jeans that does not fit her. I'm a size 12. I started crying and fake choked so that nobody would notice. FML
Family heirloom
Today, I got the dress I gave to a tailor to replace a broken zipper back. When I tried it on, I discovered that they’d cut at least 4 inches of fabric, and being skinny, there’s no way I can ever fit into it. It’s from the 1950’s, inherited from my late grandma, who in turn inherited it from her aunt. FML
Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML
Today, I found out my grandmother doesn't wear underwear when she bent over in front of me in her inappropriately short nightgown. FML
Ripper
Today, at work, the seat of my pants ripped open. A coworker lent me a pair of his back-up jeans, and then those ripped in the crotch. FML
Today, I found out that my mother intentionally donated the quilt that I had made for her, because, "It didn't match anything". That was $70 worth of fabric and 7 and a half weeks spent on that handiwork of mine. FML

Maybe now you can reflect on how absurd it is to spend $300 on Jeans that are ripped, simply because they are "trendy"...

I live in a big city. I shell out $240 monthly for public transport just to get to my company. It takes me 3 hours daily. With a car, it would take me a hour per day minutes tops. public transport is not the answer to everything

1) your gran is a lovely gal. 2) buy a pair of jeans and let your car drag them as you drive. They'll be cheaper, trendy, and one of a kind

I do the same as #25. it's easy to get jeans for $100 and rip them from living life

So? It's not that hard to undo sewing, especially if it wasn't professionally done. Get some tiny scissors or a razor or seam-ripper and carefully cut out the stitches. Not an FML, just a mild annoyance.

YDI for blowing 300Cs for already ripped jeans. You know, Ripped jeans are very easy to make and they cost far less than $300...even $1 . All you need is a pair of plain jeans and a razor blade to rip and cut away at the legs of the pants and You got yourself a lovely one-of-a-kind pair of ripped rocker pants. Sit on this idea, OP. ;)
