Today, my mom was more upset about my 67 on an Algebra test than my sister almost setting the house on fire. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I found out my little sister is a pyromaniac. She set my bed on fire. FML
Alexa, play "Never Enough" by The Cure
Today, I made a 99 on my history test. Proud of myself, I went to tell my mom. She cut me off to say, "If it’s less than a 100, you’re fucking grounded." FML
Lock your doors
Today, while taking a test in my online class, my sister unexpectedly showed up. She panicked when she realized what I was doing, as the class has a strict rule of being 100% alone during tests. I assured her that because she wasn't helping me to cheat, it would be fine. Turns out it wasn't fine, as I got a zero. FML
Today, my sister just had a huge fight with my mom. After that, she thought it was appropriate to smash my $1,000 guitar to "blow off some steam." FML
Why would you do that?
Today, right before the most important final of my education, I got a text from my mom saying my house had burned to the ground, and my children were outside waiting for the firemen. I panicked, left school, and sped home… all for her to laugh and tell me it was “just a joke.” FML
Today, my parents, who aren’t usually lenient, allowed me to have my boyfriend over. We started to cuddle, things got a little heated, but then my sister walks in and says, “You do my math homework, or I tell mom what you guys were doing.” I don’t remember middle school math being this hard. FML
ASAP
Today, my mom texted me in the middle of my end of term math exam, saying it was extremely urgent and needed me to come home ASAP. While skipping my exam, I finally got home to find out my mom forgot what the emergency was. FML
Time wasting
Today, after having spent all of last night studying for an algebra test, I find out that the test was on a completely different chapter of my textbook. FML
Today, while I was studying for an exam, my younger sister came home extremely drunk and threw up all over herself and her bed. I later got grounded for not setting a better example. FML
Today, my pyromaniac sister somehow got her hands on my dad's lighter and set my bed sheets on fire. My dad said I must have provoked her, and that she can't be blamed for her mental condition. So now I'm grounded, and she has a new doll house to calm her down. FML

The key word is "almost"

of course you never know in an FML, but OP could be a 19 year old in a level 101 algebra class and his sister could be a 2 year old that knocked over a candle

Oh my God OP! Maybe our moms go to a convention where they teach mother's any grade under 98% is the grade of a delinquent.. I got 79% and she almost shit bricks!

Yes, "almost".. OP you little brat, I bet you care more about the fact that your mom was upset over your test than you personally did about the house almost burning down. Mom and Pop are always gonna provide a roof over your head so you can bring home D's... right?

Woops double post.

Your sister •almost• burned the house down. You •almost• failed* I think your sisters almost is worse... *in my high school 64 or under was failing, not the typical 70=pass
yahoowizard 16
Exactly. We've all almost set the house on fire before, on more occasions than one....right?

My mom is the same way

15- That sounds just like my mom! Any time my grades drop below 90 she complains about how much of a failure I am. You should've seen what happened when my teacher put a project worth 500 points in as a zero until it was completed. I ended up getting a perfect score in the end but she was freaking out about it every day until then.

math is easy

OP you did fail the test. your sister ALMOST burned the house down. which is worse?
kareltje 17
Well, seriously... Your mom's right. Houses can be rebuilt. An education is a lot harder to pass successfully than setting a house on fire...
bamagrl410 31
But a house tends to cost more than an education... Though not for long with the way tuition prices are skyrocketing.

Hey dumb ass #6 what is the difference in income between someone with good education and someone like you with none? Multiple mansions... You ugly too

Ya and death by fire seems worse than failing one class.

I can see why you would say that.

Are you ******* retarded?

Well that's kinda dumb of your mom to be upset over that then your sister.

If I was a mother I'd be upset with both kids, no comparing who's is worse. BUT we only know one side of the story. People have accidents, but you can't accidentally not study.

dude, it's normal if you're asian, i get the same thing all the time T.T

Maybe her sister's really young and was playing with matches or a lighter.

Light the test on fire. "You like this, Mom?! Didn't think so!" She'll probably just think you're insane and leave you alone.
mattorama 15
The mom already seems pretty crazy, and you can't out-crazy genuine crazy.

hahaha good one bro

I enjoy the fact someone tried to be cool and insult Pentium and ended up getting buried by more votes than Pentium got voted up. Who's the one who isn't "good at this and for their own sake, should stop?"

nope, she's 14

How come your comment shows and it doesn't have the following up button?
ProhibitionRose 14
Almost only counts with horseshoes and hand grenades. The fact is: you failed a test, your sister was unsuccessful at burning the house down. Therefore yours was worse :/

67% is a passing mark.
ProhibitionRose 14
Barely.
thenomad 7
67% may be a passing mark, but assuming that OP is in high school, grades should be more important than ever. My parents would have killed me for grades such as that, because they wanted me to receive as many scholarships as possible. College is expensive...
naomiomis 4
It's not a passing grade where I'm from
RedPillSucks 33
Depends on the school. Some schools, anything below 70 is a fail.
gr8koolkat 6
In Australia, our pass mark is usually 50%. Way to make me feel dumb, I was usually proud of myself for getting 60!
RamenForTheWin 10
Not everywhere. In my school it's a failing grade.
hahayousucks 3
I've thrown a real hand grenade... Trust me if you have to say it was almost close enough, I'd definitely was...
cadillacgal79 32
93-same for me at my school, in the U.S., anything under 50 is a fail.
MikeyFilth13 0
well maybe because algebra is ridiculously easy and setting the house on fire takes effort!
SmallBean 12
You sir, are completely correct!
hellokimmiee 5
but she didnt set the house on fire, and you DID fail the test. reasonable.
kateindeed 5
A 67% is still a passing grade.

No in Canada a 67 is a C+.
