Today, my parents woke me up and grounded me for the "disrespectful" things I said to them in my sleep. Apparently I say these things every night, and each time I do they extend the grounding. FML

Today, I saw a spider crawling across a poster in my bedroom, so I smacked the spot below it to scare the spider into climbing back up the wall. Instead, because the poster wasn't completely flat to the wall, I catapulted the spider straight into my face. FML

Today, when my neighbor came over to ask about a serious rash her child had, she totally passed by me, the EMT/firefighter, to ask the hippy pastry chef what she thought of it, and if she had oils to "cure" it. So much for my job. FML

I assume you have your own bedroom, so what the hell are your parents even doing being in the same room? Are they watching you sleep? Are they coming into your room to take something of yours? Maybe they deserve what you said then because that is CREEPY.

Are your parents the type that don't let their kids do kid things? Maybe they are grounding you so you cant "rebel" against them. Even if you are talking in your sleep, that's not something they should be able to hear unless they are watching you sleep. If I were you, I'd set up some kind of recording so you can hear what is worth being grounded over.

Why are they paying attention to what you do when you're sleeping? And they do know you can't help what you say when you sleep, right?
