Today, my mom visited, and I left her for a few minutes while I used the bathroom. While I was stuck taking a crap, she went on one of her religious rants, telling my children that Easter was off this year because their precious "pagan" Easter Bunny had been murdered. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, what started as a fun family Easter egg hunt turned within minutes into my mother-in-law's big chance to be a dramatic cow by screaming at my 5 and 7-year-old daughters for participating in a "vile pagan ritual" and saying that we're all going to hell. They're still bawling. FML
Today, I woke up and decided to make my mom a special Easter breakfast in bed. I pre-heated the oven to bake the sausage just the way she likes. Guess where my easter basket was. FML
Today, I was supposed to spend Easter with my grandparents, but my mom's new husband is a paranoid, overprotective asshole who wouldn't let me because he "doesn't know them." What's even worse is that my mom decided to agree with him just to keep the fucking peace. FML
Today, my husband and I hosted Easter dinner. Since I was in my own home, I breastfed without a cover. My sister-in-law stormed out in a rage, screaming that I was being obscene, and equated it to shooting heroin in front of her kids. Happy Easter indeed. FML
Today, it is both my birthday and Easter. My whole family came into town and my mom made a big dinner with all of my favorite foods. After church, I took a nap. When I woke up, all the food, including my cake, was gone. No one thought to wake me up. FML
Today, I was visiting my mom for Easter weekend. I rarely visit her, since she lives on the other side of the state. She spent the nicest day of the visit sick all day in bed. It wasn't food poisoning, the doctors don't know what it was, but she was fine the next day, when it was raining and much colder, so no outdoors for us. FML
Today, my mother came over to visit, and my kids started excitedly telling her Christmas is coming soon. She freaked out, saying Christmas is a "Satanic holiday" and telling them that Santa is going to hell along with everyone who celebrates it. My children are now traumatized. FML
Today, as punishment for peeing on the toilet seat, my dad told my son Santa isn’t real and nor is the tooth fairy or the Easter bunny. FML
Today, my brother in law brought a dead rabbit to my nephew saying, "I found the Easter Bunny!" My nephew started crying hours ago and hasn't stopped. FML
Today, I was feeling very sad and alone, so I went to see my mom. I was there for over two hours, but she was on the phone gossiping with her church hens for about an hour and 45 minutes. Then she wonders why I hardly ever visit. FML

I agree #19. Not sure why #2 is getting so many thumbs down.

44-it's because the way she said it was really really stupid
PIGaming 21
#45, its not that what she said was stupid, but the lack of punctuation makes what she may have meant to imply completly incomprehinsable.

@46: "45, its not what she said was stupid" #45 never said anything about the content of the comment being stupid. They said THE WAY they posted their comment was stupid.

It wasn't that stupid the way it was phrased. It definitely wasn't incomprehensible. I understood it clearly and didn't have to think about it. It would be more stupid if someone couldn't understand that.

Go ahead with leaving the eggs around anyway. They'll never believe a word she says again.

She obviously has details on what happened, Op an their kids can phone the police. Maybe a police officer will be cool enough to pretend to be the Easter bunny, safe in police protection too.

It's nice that she supported your decision to celebrate the spirit of the day and played along in not ruining their holiday... Oh wait.

Why she gotta troll that hard though?! Smfh
imyy 20
Smfh = suck my fanny hard? :-) The phrase smh and smfh need to die. They're ridiculously stupid.
HeyTherexxx 21
"Yolo" and "swag" are worse than "smh." Go make the most ridiculous sayings die out before you target the petty ones.
PIGaming 21
Both your comments are void as you honestly beleive that YOLO, smh and swag are either a phrase or a saying. In actual fact, they are abbreviations and/or slang! smh at swagfag teenieboppers.

"Slang is an abbreviation of the word shortened language." I think that's a quote from the Big Bang Theory.

Colloquialisms.

But like all great Saviors! The Easter Bunny rose from his tomb and still had his way with all those chickens. Amen!

That's when you tell them grandmas just mad because the Easter bunny never got her anything, and teach them a lesson on why you don't take your anger out on other people.

Am I the only one who is wondering who would go out all the way to Easter Island to do that?
