Today, my sister went into early labor. Instead of telling me, my mom turned to my dog and said, "Guess what? You're going to be an uncle!" Our dog ranks higher than me in our family's metaphorical food chain. FML

Today, my family went on vacation. I had to stay home to take care of everyone's animals. I called my mom, who said she was too busy to talk to me. When my sister asked her who was on the phone, she replied, "The dog sitter." FML

Today, my parents called me to ask if I could drop my dog off to them on Sunday. They're having a Superbowl party and want to show her off to their guests. My dog is invited, but I'm not. FML

Today, I was watching a movie on TV. One of the characters has the same name as my dog, and when his name was called, my dog got so excited that he jumped face-first into my TV. FML

Today, it's my sister's birthday. My parents got her a cat. I have serious allergies when it comes to cats. When I brought this issue up with my parents, they replied, "This day is not about you, it's about your sister." I can feel my throat tightening already. FML

Tasty

Today, I went to see my sister and took a couple of dog biscuits for her dog. I forgot about them until later when I realised I had a hole in my pocket, near my crotch. The dog pointed this out by chomping my balls to get to the biscuits. My attempts to remove him resulted in more vigorous chewing. FML

Today, I had been sick all day, so to cheer me up my dad drove me to get ice cream. On our way back, we hit a puppy. FML

At least she didn't tell it it was going to be a daddy.

Is it just me, or is there quite a few of the "My parents like the dog/cat/animal more than me" FMLs on this site?

Is your mom a furry? Is there any "Yiffing" involved?

Sell the dog and you'd replace him on the ranking list ;) P.s. Your moms a weirdo for telling your dog that instead of you. ):

Uh.. If she was being serious, maybe you did something which pissed her off that you're not mentioning.

I REALLY don't see a problem. I'm sure she was either going to tell you (if you overheard), or was just kind of telling you THROUGH the dog (I mean, you DID figure it out, right???). No offense, but... suck it up.
