Today, my Marine friend got back from his tour of duty overseas. We went out for drinks to celebrate his return. His own form of celebration was to pick a fight with a returning Navy SEAL and his friends. We lost. Badly. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, some muscle-head showed up at my house and started beating on me. Turned out my son had been posing online as a Navy SEAL, using a picture of me, and had dared this guy to come over and fight him. FML
Today, I went to my high school reunion. I was super excited to see what everyone had done in their lives. The nerdy guy I bullied is now a U.S. Marine and already has two deployments in Afghanistan under his belt. He looked at me in his dress blues and said, "I remember you." FML
Today, aside from clearing out my bank accounts and having an affair, the kicker was finding out my fiancé planned on taking himself and his mistress to Cancun for his birthday, while I would be attending the Marine Corps boot camp. FML
Today, after nearly 2 years of continuous fighting in Afghanistan, my unit came home. We were booed at the airport. FML
Today, I met the girl who dumped me because the distance between us was too great. We're in the same city again. She's now dating a Marine in Iraq. FML
Today, my boyfriend got drunk and had a fistfight with a dumb teenager, which was bad enough, but he also lost the fight, which was just pathetic and embarrassing. FML
Today, I woke up and I'm still in the Marine Corps. FML
Today, I got back from an 8 month deployment but rather than being pleased to see me my wife wanted to continue the same argument we were having the day I left. I miss being shot at. FML
Today, my boyfriend got done with Marine combat training. The first thing he asked for weren't pictures of me but pictures of his car. Missed you too babe. FML
Today, I was at a restaurant with my boyfriend. He wound up drinking a whole bottle of wine, and when the bill came, he drunkenly yelled at the waiter, claiming it should be free, because he's in the military "fighting for your freedom." He's a mechanic in the National Guard. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Navy SEALS are like grim reapers in training. Why would you fight them.

That sucks, but... You DEFINITELY deserved that. You don't pick fights with a Navy SEAL unless you want to nearly die or actually die... Tell your Marine friend to grow a brain before he thinks of picking another fight.

no bears use brute force, more of a wolf or other predator that travels in a pack

SEAL's are insane I'll give you that. I even know one, but force recon marines are just as deadly if not more so. And overall the USMC is the finest branch. So it's understandable why the guy was cocky.

Getting beat up by any branch of the special forces is not an FML, Marine or not. Now if you guys had lost a fight with someone in the National Guard....

I've never lost to a seal, a ranger or a recon marine. Just saying. And I was your average fleet marine force marine

IF this is real, then YDI for willingly hanging out with this unstable dumbass. the reason i say iF is that any experience I've had with people from other branches(GO ARMY) was more of a joking kind of picking fights with. anyone who is ****** with us and ISN'T in the service, though, those are the ones who get either a verbal beatdown or a physical one. just speaking from experience, not calling you a liar, per se.

I like how every1 is assuming the Marine couldn't hold his own, maybe his Panzy of a friend who is whining about losing a fight didn't hold his own

Marines really don't have a right state of mind hence why we join the Marines and not one of the easy branches we like to call it a glitch
