Today, my mom and dad were arguing. It started getting really heated, so I tried to go break it up. But within a couple of minutes, my mom wanted to make a statement by throwing a plate to the ground, forgetting I was beside her. I now have a throbbing foot with shards of glass in it. FML

Today, my boyfriend flipped out when he saw a period tracker app on my phone. According to him, chicks only use those when they want to know when they’re the most fertile so they can “baby trap” a man. I have irregular cycles. The app helps me know when I should or shouldn’t expect a period. FML

Today, a large spider climbed inside my lunchbox while my mom was making me sandwiches. She didn't tell me about it until after I got home from school, though, and only because I mentioned a strange aftertaste in the sandwiches.

sometimes it's worth it, but anyway op, fyl that your parents were fighting in front of you and that you hurt yourself. hope everything works out and that hurt them enough to calm down. btw, most plates are ceramic. and "things started to get really heated" nice peice of innuendo there

@52: I think it's a fake, too (who says "now has a throbbing foot with shards of glass" when they could be at the ER?), but be aware that a) ceramic can also cut you, if the shards are the right shape; and b) there is such a thing as a glass plate. I have many of them in my kitchen.
