Today, I met my son's girlfriend and I’m convinced he’s lost his damn mind. She was rude, racist and offensive, grossly obese, absolutely stank of unwashed body odour, her clothes were filthy, and she dropped cigarette ash everywhere she felt like it. I’m stunned, completely stunned. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my daughter gave me the “but daddy I love him” speech when she turned up to a family event with her boyfriend, who was at least 20 years older than her, was visibly intoxicated, stank of body odour and cigarettes, then tried to flirt with my wife. FML
Today, I rushed to my son’s house, eager to meet my new grand-baby, who his annoying wife wouldn’t let me see at the hospital. Before I could even pick the baby up, his wife started freaking out that I “smelled like cigarettes” and threw me out because it was “bad for the baby.” FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's mother for the first time. She has early onset dementia, butt was a pretty OK day. All was going well until she looked at her son and said he was skinny, which admittedly he is quite skinny, but then looked me dead in the eye and said, "You need to lose weight." FML
Today, I answered the door at my boyfriend's house to an obese woman, who looked and smelled homeless, and rudely tried to barge past me to get inside. I told her to get out or I’d call the police. My boyfriend behind me saw this disgusting woman and said those two awful words: “Hi Mom.” FML
Today, I met my future mother-in-law. All went well; she complimented my dress, and I complimented her haircut. Then she and her son had a screaming match over how our children will be fat because of their mother. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were visiting his parents. When we got there, I hugged his mother, and she glared at me. Later that day, I heard her telling her son that he should leave me because I smell like cigarettes, and she hates smokers. I don't smoke, my boyfriend does. He did all the way there. FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend, and to say it went badly is an understatement. My mom went outside to relax by chain smoking and the shouting, and the screaming only ended when my dad took my boyfriend by the scruff of the neck and threw him out the front door into the street. FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I thought everything went well, until I got a text from him later saying, "Come on mom, she isn't THAT bad." FML
Today, my teen son came home in a terrible mood because his girlfriend won’t listen to him. I thought he meant conversation-wise, but he meant she refused to obey his commands about what clothes and makeup she wears, who she can talk to, where she can go, and so forth. My son is an asshole. FML
Today, I spent yet another lunch venting to my best friend about how much I hate my teenage son's girlfriend, thinking he should be with someone less outspoken. Apparently she got tired of listening because she eventually snapped, "Oh for god's sake, just admit you want to fuck your son already!" and left. FML

Well, there's something she must be doing REAAAALLY well. Any idea what that may be?

As someone who used to be obese but finally did something about it, you can choose your weight. I find that about 50% of people just can't be bothered to put in the effort....

Sounds like it! How does he think he's going to keep such a woman who is so far out of his league?

The rude, racist and dropping cigarette ash everywhere is slightly your business unless you are different races and she made a racist remark to you on the racist remark in which case the racist remark is completely your business (my son is dating a someone who posted on Instagram that it’s not about BLM it’s about racism not understanding about BLM and I can’t do anything about it if I don’t want to drive my son away from me. Pick your battles with this woman. Please don’t body shame her to your son. She didn’t pick her weight. Her body Oder may be because the more obese someone is the higher chances she will end up with bacterial infections from diseases such as diabetes. The medications for diabetes can sometimes make people gain a lot of weight. All I am saying is pick your battles wisely or you’ll lose your son to her. I should know.

Too bad I can’t reply under @J_Free_Woods. Finding lame excuses is not the right way. Being racist is a problem no matter what. It shows, among other things, a selfish attitude that does not go well with building a healthy couple. Not to mention the rude and offensive attitude. Being dirty in any means possible also shows how life with that woman will be difficult. And I would be happy if someone dropped ash on my floor. As of being overweight, body shaming is not an option, but if the person has a bad diet, I wouldn’t wish him or her as a partner for someone I care. And yes that woman could be the greatest person, but there are far more chances that OP’s son would be better with someone else.

That right there is what we in the USA refer to as a “Trailer-Park Queen” Don’t get invited over to her place when she cooks, unless you like all your food “Methed up.”
