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

Today, I spent my afternoon rummaging through old jeans and other pants, due to being broke and needing cash for ramen. FML
Today, some idiot introduced my grandmother to yoga pants. FML
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
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
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"...

Well, that was actually really sweet of her. :) you can just rip the stitching out. If you use an actual seam ripper, it shouldn't leave a scar on the jeans!

Aw what a lovely gran! Hopefully you can take off the patch and unpick the stitches. It will make them truly original then :)

Why are people mad at OP for buying $300 jeans? It's her money, she can spend it as she pleases. For all we know, that could've been the only nice item of clothing she had. There's nothing wrong with splurging on an article of clothing every now and then, also there's nothing wrong with having a closet full of designer items if thats what OP desires (as long as she can afford it, then again, that isn't our business). Besides, that's not even the point of the FML. OP's grandmother messed up her property. FYL.

Why does it matter? It's her money not yours to spend. FHL, you don't know if she saved up the money because she really wanted them
