Today, my pregnant wife's parents called me at work, saying she'd been crying inconsolably and wouldn't say what was wrong. After pleading with my boss, I rushed home. Turns out there was an "ugly" sofa in a TV ad and she felt it was "picking on ugly sofas". FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

...before calling it "ugly" maybe she should think about the couch's feelings.

Hormones of pregnant women: A formidable source of FMLs since the beginning of FML!

Fun fact of the day: pregnant women's hormone levels are 1000x that of women who are not pregnant.

No, it's like the "before" and "after" label. So it's labeled "ugly" and "new", "fashionable" or something.

OP, tell your wife about that couch that one guy on FML had sex with. Let us know her reaction to that :)

I think the way the Op wrote this FML would indicate that the advertisment called the couch ugly, and the pregnant wife was crying about the couches hurt feelings. I don't think you understood the FML #2.

At least she didn't cry because the couch wasn't living up to its destiny of being a couch...

That couch had hopes and dreams... Dreams of weary bottoms.

Aww, her hormones are just playing with her feelings. Best of luck to you and congrats on her pregnancy! :)

She'll laugh at this when it's over :)

yeah y'all are totally right! women can't really control the hormones and how it makes them act but hopefully she will apologize and laugh about it later. also, don't hold it against her, OP cause she'll be embarrassed enough after the fact. I did some silly things like this when I was expecting too! I'm sure all moms have lol

at least she didn't try to buy it out of pity.

I can see why she didn't want to tell her parents why she was crying.

Oh no! More like she couldn't tell them amidst all the crying! She thought it was pretty fucking sad! Obviously it wasn't ridiculous for her!

Good luck explaining that to your boss when you get back to work.

Better off just saying, "I can't talk about it. It's really really REALLY super personal. Woman stuff, you know." And if he's a man you'll get the added bonus of making him uncomfortable with the term, "Woman stuff."
