Today, my distraught mom called me, saying my dad had killed himself and to come home right away. After cussing out my math teacher for trying to stop me and rushing back home in a taxi, I ran into the living room, only to find my parents laughing so hard they were practically in tears. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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, I popped two tires hitting a curb. I called my dad hysterical, and he told me to call my mom and hung up. My mom's been dead for seven years. FML
Today, I was feeling depressed. I overheard my mom crying on the phone. She said, “If my daughter kills herself, who’s going to do the dishes?” FML
Today, my dad walked into my school and joked around saying that he's going to shoot my boyfriend. We all laughed. Except my boyfriend. He was sobbing in a corner. FML
Today, I got a call from my daughter’s school. They found her on the roof, threatening to kill herself. I had to pretend to sound scared and sad over the phone, but in reality, the only emotion I could feel was extreme joy. FML
Today, at work, I was about to close a big sale, when a coworker rushed over and said there was a call for me in the office. He heavily implied my mom had died, and I rushed out. After I figured out there was no call and that my mom was fine, he'd already stolen my sale and the commission. FML
Today, my parents and I went to the movies for my mom's birthday. After the movie, my mom and dad got into a fight, and left me at the movies. My cell phone was dead, and my house was about 12 miles away. They finally came and picked me up, hours later. FML
Today, I was crying after having argued with my boyfriend. My mom saw me, she asked, "Why are you crying? Don't you have homework to do?" FML
Today, my boyfriend died. I was crying in my room when I heard a knock on my door. I thought it was my mom coming to comfort me, but instead she yelled and screamed at me for doing the dishes wrong. FML

That is deplorable. I'm sorry OP.

I honestly cannot comprehend what some people consider to be funny. Causing someone to panic over something silly, "Hey guy you sent that e-mail to everyone in the office and not just me!" - Okay, that can be pretty funny. Causing someone to panic over a very serious, life changing subject and treating that subject so frivolous, "Read the OP." - Not funny at all, just sick and deranged. A girl committed suicide on my dorm floor during my sophomore year of college, the scream that issued from her friend when she found her (girl had committed suicide in her friend's dorm room), and the image of the friend beating her fists against the hallway wall in a fit of hysterical tears I will never, ever be able to forget. Suicide is NOT funny.

I am so sorry, OP! That is so cruel and sick and twisted in so many ways! There is no way possible to get back at them either.. That was crossing the line right there! I just don't even know what to say. Make sure you line yourself out for college and a job and GET AWAY FROM THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!! I am, sincerely, so sorry, OP! That is just terrible!

In college you're treated like an adult, so if you get an important call you can answer your phone. I've done so several times after saying, "Sorry, excuse me," and moving to the corner/far end of the room and speaking quietly.
