Today, my vegan step-mom found out I ate at McDonald's yesterday. She gave me hell and asked me how it feels to give money to "murderers". All while my dad sat quietly by because he's too whipped to speak his mind. It wasn't even her house a month ago. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my family dragged me to a steakhouse, knowing full well I'm vegan. I sat there, with my sad little salad, watching as they stuffed themselves with burned animal flesh and laughed at me. They wonder why I hate them all. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house for dinner with his family. His mom cooked up a steak dinner, except that I'm a vegan, but trying to be a good girlfriend, I forced it down. Upon his mother finding out I was a vegan, she called me "disloyal to my beliefs." FML
Today, I made a tasty, healthy plant-based lunch for my family. They ate a few bites, spat it out, and then went to McDonald's "to eat real food, you know, food with meat in it." FML
Today, my daughter came home from school crying hysterically. Apparently, her teacher is a vegan douchebag who told the whole class, "If your family eats meat, they're eating your future!" Now she screams when we eat meat. FML
Today, I've been a vegan for a year. It's also the day that I met my dad's new best friend, who happens to be a retired butcher. They tried to pull an intervention on me for not "being sensible" by eating meat. FML
Today, I was making dinner for my family while my wife was at work. She walked in the door with McDonald's, even though she knew I was cooking. Then our kids saw and started screaming that they wanted McDonald's too and that it was unfair. I've told her not to pull this shit and she won't listen. FML
Today, my mom admitted that the only reason she took me out for lunch was because she felt guilty over going on a massive shopping spree for my sister while I was forced to stay home alone. I thanked her for the Wendy's meal anyway. FML
Today, my boyfriend called my mother stupid and angrily argued with her at a family dinner. Why? We have a long-running family joke that "Vegan food doesn't contain calories," and my boyfriend thought my mum said it seriously, and was therefore a moron. FML
Today, I made the mistake of telling my militant vegan coworker I have fond memories of hunting with my dad, which set her off like a tofu-powered grenade. If she doesn’t stop treating me like the devil, making snide comments, and other shit, I may have to go to HR about her. FML
Today, I was minding a 6-year old boy. He begged me to take him somewhere. I rang his mum, and she said I could. He picked to go to McDonald's. He ordered chicken. After his meal, he told me he was vegetarian, and wanted to try some meat while his mum wasn't around. I got the blame. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That sucks.... stand up for yourself even if your dad won't! I have a step mom who came in and did the same thing almost 20 years ago and to this day, my dad has yet to locate his balls. -_-

I'd turn around and say "oh, it feels great to eat the delicous cooked flesh. Why do you ask?". But I am just a sarcastic barstard like that though.

Simply refer to vegan meals in as animal equivalents. Please pass the pea fetuses, more decapitated lettuce skin please, any more grape blood, some yummy diced tomato uterus please, looking for severed and flayed carrot legs.

She's only your STEPmom. She has very little right to speak to you like that and control you, so you (in this particular case) have very much a right to tell her to stfu and mind her own god damn business.

Lol I would've slapped her and told her not to speak to me unless she was spoken to. That's all nut jobs like that deserve

This happened to me a while ago.

"It felt really good and if you don't shut up, you'll be next" perhaps? :P

I have nothing against vegans..but tell her not to force her fcuking cult down your throat or you will choke her in her sleep with a piece of steak lol.. Respect her for being vegan and she should show reciprocity. But your dad tho...seriously lol.

As you can tell by my screen name I'm vegan. Sorry she was so rude to you. I understand being passionate about a cause, but treating people badly because of it is just wrong. Lots of vegans forget that having compassion for all living beings means your fellow humans too. Call a family meeting and have a (calm and polite) discussion about this. Tell her you respect her decision to be vegan, but you're just not there yet. (No need to mention if you have no intention of ever becoming veg) Ask for her to also show respect for the road you're on. Good luck.

I hate when people force their personal behaviors and/or beliefs on other people. People are free to live the way they want to, but they need to respect the fact that not everyone shares their opinions. I would tell your step-mother that. She has no right to judge or condemn you.
