Today, someone popped my birthday balloon at school. Her reasoning was that she "didn't want people to know we have the same birthday." Who popped it? My identical twin sister. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's my birthday. I am a triplet. In my first class, everyone sang happy birthday to my sister. Her friends got her balloons too. My other sister's friends got her flowers. Everyone forgot I was their sister and all of my own friends forgot that it was my birthday. FML
Today, everyone at school told me to wish my brother a happy birthday. We're twins. FML
Today, it was my birthday. Also today, same as the past five years, my family forgot my mine and threw a party for my 5-year-old twin sisters who I share a birthday with. FML
Today, I got my yearbook. My sister and I are identical twins, and we realized only my sister had a picture in it. When we asked the head of yearbook, they said they thought it was the same girl trying to get two pictures, so they put in the prettier one. FML
Today, I got a birthday card from my parents. It was my sister's from earlier in the year. They scratched out her name and wrote mine underneath. FML
Today, I found out my best friend was having a birthday party and I wasn't invited, so I asked her why. She replied, "What birthday party?" It was a surprise birthday party. FML
Today, I got a text from my mom shaming me for forgetting my sister's birthday. It isn't her birthday today, it's mine. FML
Today, I finished birthday shopping for my husband, my son, and a close friend, who all have birthdays within a week. I was proud of myself for being organized, until I remembered: my husband has a twin sister. FML
Today, I got accused of ruining my girlfriend's birthday, all because I accidentally got her the same birthday present as her mother did. FML
Today, I found out that my sister has been telling people I’ve been dead for the last 3 months, to cover up the fact she used me to commit identity fraud. We’re identical twins. FML

There are no words to describe her stupidity...

So....what does she do if someone has the same shirt on as her?

Rip it or burn it.

A dramatic ripping of another's shirt sounds like it would be more fitting. Although, that poor balloon never even saw it coming :(

Just because she doesn't want people to know, doesn't mean you don't want anyone to know either. Go around and tell everyone. Goodluck and happy birthday OP!

The classical evil twin. Your life will be the subject of a horror movie some day, featuring the Olsen twins.

It's unfortunate this story is next to the one about the dog with diarrhea. I kept reading that the sister was pooping balloons. (Flashbacks to the drug mule days.)

i would just like to know how long you've been on fml, you have a lot of unposted fml's and over 20,000 comments.

that's so rude. and unless she had the same balloon no one would know. if she was my sister I would've punched her

Am I the only person wondering how old the OP is that they have a birthday balloon? So strange.

I hate people who carry balloons on their birthday at school, it's like they think people care

Maybe someone gave her the balloon for her birthday, asshole.
awkwardloveannie 28
is it because you never get balloons? if you weren't so mean maybe people would celebrate the day you were born

Apparently she doesn't use her share of identical brain cells...

That is really mean of her! Even if she is your sister and doesn't share the same birthday as you, she shouldn't burst your balloon. But on the bright side, maybe you will get more sympathy balloons.

I meant that IF she wasn't her twin sister. It is also mean of her to burst her balloon.
