Today, my mom went to the store. She said she was feeling generous, and had gotten everyone a little treat. My brothers each got candy and a movie. I got acne medication. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got a birthday present from my boyfriend's mom. It was ProActiv acne solution. He tried to make me feel better by explaining it's because she wants to be able to include me in family pictures. FML
Today, I got in line at the grocery store. The woman in front of me looked right at me, turned to her friend, and said "That reminds me, I forgot to get acne cream." FML
Today, I went to see my mother with my kids. Before, I had told my son to give her hugs and kisses and I would buy him candy. He did, but then he told her that I said that. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me acne cream for my birthday. FML
Today, I saw what my mom handed out for trick-or-treaters last night. Toothbrushes. Yup, we're that house. FML
Today, my teenage daughter asked me to buy her the morning after pill, saying, "It's for my acne." FML
Today, my mother went shopping. She bought three boxes of Popsicles and a giant stuffed dog. She did not buy dinner or toilet paper. I've eaten nothing but cereal and popcorn for three days now. FML
Today, I bought my mom a gift certificate for a spa treatment for two so we could spend some quality time together. She took my sister. FML
Today, I was feeling pretty down due to a recent back injury, so I thought I’d do something nice to help lift my spirits. I bought some cookies for my coworkers, who ended up not wanting any, and one of them decided to ask what was wrong with my face. Oh, right, my acne rosacea is flaring too. FML
Today, I walked into the dining room to find my mom popping pimples on my dad's back. FML

Keanna- Girl.. We lost! :'( But it's okay! There's a reason our Pats go to the SuperBowl more often than most! There's always next year! :) GO PATRIOTS!!
EvilPotato 15
1... Blastoff?
The_Tool1 13
Desireev- you look like my future ex-wife. Just saying
MrSassypants 34
70 Yes it is blasting of and looks like someone put a steering wheel in the rocket ship because this flame war is going in different directions.
The_Tool1 13
78- what the hell are you talking about?
MrSassypants 34
79 It was a metaphor comparing this somewhat flame war to a rocket ship with a steering wheel saying it is somewhat taking off but is going in different directions because this "converstion" is about people looking like someone's ex-wife, football, and all that stuff. Even this silly thing right here is a stupid addition to this flame war.

MrSassypants 34
I am not a big fan of grammar Nazis but can someone please correct 25's comment so it can be read properly.
hotPinklipstick 24
What's the problem? If you actually need the medicine then she did a good thing.

Hey, on the bright side, your *treat* probably costed more than the candy and movie. So I guess you can call yourself mommy's favourite.

For real, I wouldn't be mad for that, I rather fix myself first then enjoy myself.

And I got fruit snacks
DontClickOnMe 28
Aww, that's not fair. But don't worry. Hopefully in a few years it'll get better. You should steal one of your brother's candy!
thatguy303 5
Dude I was looking at your pic and I just imagine him telling op that XD
The_Tool1 13
Is it just me, or is this guys picture smokin hot?
jtthegr8 26
Its just you
DontClickOnMe 28
I thought my picture was smoking hot... Am I wrong?
The_Tool1 13
It's pretty much as hot as it comes. That's why I clicked on you
DontClickOnMe 28
Yeah, I bet that's the major reason why so many people click on me.
WaSiSimiLang 8
So you should change it from " what did I say " to " am I really that smoking hot"
DontClickOnMe 28
64 - I should, shouldn't I? Thanks for the tip. Here's a cookie :)
The_Tool1 13
Can I have the cookie? I'm kind of a fatass
DontClickOnMe 28
Yes, you can. Only because you said I'm smoking hot ;)
Discombobulated9 12
Oh, would you rather your mother did nothing and just allowed your acne run wildly out of control? Your mother cares a lot and you'll be very grateful about it when you're older :)
EddiE_CN 8
Ungrateful kid.
TheiMightyKhaL 2
Yeah you mom cares about you! She's making you look better and letting your brothers get fat off of candy.
bitchesbcrazy 0
Well i think she may be trying to tell you two things: 1. She likes you the least 2. You have really bad acne

People of FML, do not fear. Captain Obvious is here; to enrich your knowledge of things already known.

OP's mom obviously loves her the most since she wants to help get rid of the acne and gives her brothers candy to get fat.

She pores out all her love to your brothers. It's pretty clear who her favorite children are.
bizarre_ftw 22
She pours out her love to the brothers And loves to out her daughter's pores (misspellings, sometimes there're coincidental)
pinecone1414 6
(Puns, usually they are planned)
iAmScrubs 19
Pinecone is correct. There's really no need to thumb down bizarre_ftw, though. She just didn't recognize the pun, which is something I've been guilty of before as well. :-)

Hey look at it this way your present costed more.
THE_A_TEEN 28
I think a movie cost more than acne medication.
21jason 9
Depends on the movie and the medication
ShroomsOnAcid 17
The past tense of cost is still cost. "Costed" means to calculate the cost, past tense.
