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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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 fully understand you OP. I'm a vegan and I get lectures on "proper" nutrition by meat-heads on a regular basis. As soon as they found out they start criticising my (informed) decision bringing up assumptions, made up "scientific data" and generalisations, all of them proving being ignorant as the conversation unfolds, and when cornered they resort to offences and ridicule. The only difference is that we vegans get this crap all the times, you only got it once.

Lol, so deliciously butthurt. You're really not helping your cause by leaving such a stupidly passive-aggressive comment like that, insulting so-called "meat-heads" for their preferred diet, and making dumbass generalizations of your own. You seem like a walking stereotype.

Here's one who will only believe what suits him.

What kind of meaningless response is that? I could've posted that exact comment to you, but I decided to use some actual arguments instead. Looking at your comments here, you're a bit of an extremist who likes to engage in straw man tactics and make absurd insulting generalizations. Also, you're just blindly assuming I'm a "meat-head" (seriously? "meat-head"?).

Face it, you're both passive aggressive and are both butthurt. No matter how much you try to rationalize your perspectives to each other, you're never going to win. Agree to disagree and move on.

There's nothing passive about my aggression, I assure you. And of course he won't change his mind, but that doesn't make it any less fun to play around with the crazies.

LMAO The fact that your message was passive-aggressive and bitchy is a FACT, not an interpreted belief. I know, words are hard.

Has it crossed anybody's mind that maybe it's just OP bitching about the stepmother because doesn't want her in his/her household? And to those who cry out ABUSE for someone who just criticised a brand (MacDonald's) , good for you for not knowing what real abuse is. Be objective, you aggressive meat-heads: the target of her criticism was MacDonald's, not OP, as OP clearly wrote.

Tell her it feels awesome and keep going. You can't talk to an ass hat.

Modern Concepts in Biology Regarding the Essence of Plants : studies have been made and theories proven, yes, plants are sentient, not to the extent of our human perception but they are which has been proven to some extent.

Ask her the same thing. Unless she gathers all of her food in the wild she is getting her food from Farms which kill a ton of animals with modern farming practices.
