Today, things got so bad with my mother-in-law that I seriously considered faking my entire family's deaths to escape it all. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I actually thought of faking my own death to get away from my girlfriend and her insane, overbearing family. FML
Today, I spent two hours researching ways to fake my death, just so I can escape my crazy, overbearing stalker of a mum. FML
Today, my mother is so overdramatic that her response to finding out I lost a friend's book was that I should fake my own death rather than fess up. FML
Today, my mother-in-law confessed that for the longest time, she had fantasies about killing me for "ruining" her daughter's life, basically because I'm not wealthy enough for my mother-in-law's standards. She made sure to let me know the situation hasn't changed at all. FML
Today, my mother-in-law tried to "accidentally" run me over. FML
Today, my husband told me that he's letting his mother move in with us. He told her it was alright without even consulting me first. I hate my mother-in-law so much that I'm contemplating divorce rather than living with her. FML
Today, my hateful mother-in-law showed up unexpectedly. I faked taking a phone call so the bitter old hag would leave me alone. She then pulled out her phone, called my number, and glared at me as my phone rang against my ear. FML
Today, I visited my in-laws, whom I thought I was on great terms with. I soon learned that wasn't the case when my mother-in-law yelled at me about how I've been abusing her for years. Ten minutes later, she hugged me and asked me for grandkids. FML
Today, I had to warn my wife not to kill her insane mother. I was serious. FML
Today, my mom told me that if I wanted to commit suicide, I should make it seem like a car accident, and not do it in the house, because she would be too embarrassed if people thought she was a bad parent. FML

Sounds like a true monster in law!

I wonder what atrocities she has done to make you think like that.

Well, if you arrange the letters in mother in law, it does spell woman hitler.

Having everyone die all at once sounds too far fetched. Instead, do it bit by bit. First you, so that you can set up the new life your family will lead, then your kids, then your wife last. Or you could push the old crone down a well. That is far easier.

Exactly. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

29 - a family in a car crash wouldn't be too far fetched. Although I do agree the easiest way to go is to take out the source of the problem.

And to think, people like this guy, is giving tips on how to lie about a loved ones death as if they mean nothing to them. I feel sick now.

Car accident maybe?

# 59...Don't worry. With practice you will be able to offer such advice and not have to rely on others.

Um unless your spouse (the child of said mother in law) is willing to go along with it which I doubt it's not a good plan. Better rethink it

All Mother in laws have that side to them

I don't understand why anyone allows their parent to shove around their spouse. I love my parents but they were assigned by nature I chose my partner and. No one not even my mother is going to be intrusive or rude to him. Tell your spouse to have your back or find a job in another city!

spouses should be sticking up for one another ( unless they were in the wrong).

That's what I was thinking. My mother in law drives me insane, yeah, but when she attempts to be rude to me or talk bad about me at all, my husband jumps in and defends me or tells her to lay off.

This makes me glad I have one of the sweetest mother in laws in the world...Maybe it's time to sit down with your spouse and talk about this. Hopefully they'll help with whatever is going on! Good luck OP!

im actually surprised at the amount of people telling op to kill his mother in law, instead of faking his own death. Did you ever think it might be easier, if you tell her what it is that she does that upsets you, or tell her not to come to your house until she can behave like an adult .
slytherbitch 15
You'd think that would work (and with an actual adult it would), but some people really don't give a shit and do what they want regardless.

Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding! Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding! Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding! What does your spouse say? Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow! Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow! Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow! What does your spouse say? Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho! Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho! Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho! What does your spouse say? Sorry. Couldn't resist. Damn you, Ylvis! Damn you!
