Today, my dad came out of jail. He showed me his tattoo of a Bible on his chest with all his 13 kids' names on it. I'm the only one whose name is spelled wrong. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my dad found out I got a tattoo behind his back and is really really upset. When I got home from work my car wasn't in the driveway. When I asked my dad where it was, he replied "you'll get it back when your tattoo comes off." FML
Today, my 18-year-old son got his first tattoo. I would have loved it, if it wasn't a text on his hand with a glaring spelling mistake in it. FML
Today, I heard from my dad for the first time in over six months. It was through Facebook, in a message blaming my brothers and me for his horrible life, and in which he spelled my name wrong. FML
Today, my dad has dementia and has been getting my name wrong with increasing frequency. During one of his lucid moments, he ended up admitting those wrong names are actually of his other 7 kids, my half siblings to various women, 5 in this country and 2 in Europe, but I’m not to tell my mother. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML
Today, my tattoo artist boyfriend of five months gave me my first tattoo in celebration of my 18th birthday. It was supposed to be a heart with my name in script. He spelled my name wrong. FML
Today, I found a necklace that my parents had made for me. While looking at it, I realized my parents had spelled my name wrong. FML
Today, I found out that the phrase I got tattooed on my lower back is misspelled. FML
Today, I came to terms with the fact that my dad will die without knowing I have tattoos on my body. I'm afraid my dad will suffer a deadly heart attack due to the revelation, as he had two heart failures in the past. My dad is still the sort of person who thinks that people with tattoos are criminals. FML
Today, I got piss drunk. Being a tattoo artist, I came to the intoxicated conclusion that I could save much more money doing my own tattoos on myself. I now have my ex-boyfriend's name permanently on my thigh. It's not even spelled right. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

In jail AND can't even spell his kid's name right... Your dad sounds like quite the fella!

Is your name Vasectomy, because your dad evidently cannot spell that either?

13 kids, well the Lord did say be fruitfull and multiply. He got all exponential about reproduction I guess.

Does that make up for all of the commandments he must have broken to get into jail? Yes, I lied, stole, cheated, killed and coveted my neighbors wife, but at least I multiplied!

He skills have taken advice from Spock instead of the Bible... Live long and prosper, cause with 13 kids he's broke.

Why is everyone assuming this guy was a Christian before he went to prison? Has it occurred to no one that perhaps he became a Christian after that happened?

Fail tattoo and fail spelling. Since he's in jail he might have a failed life, but of course I can't know that.

13 kids that he knows of? :P Did "Papichulo" leave space to add more kid names? I know a few ex cons. First thing they did when they got out of jail-- was got laid!

"Chula" is Spanish slang for-- sexy or beautiful. (:

I was gonna say "Well,at out of 13 kids,he's gonna end up forgetting how to spell it.:I" but it would look like I'm copying you.

Garrett, I am pretty sure OP's dad was not tattooing himself. So FHL for having an illiterate guy do his tat.

You try spelling 13 kids names right and see how easy it is? I mean especially if they all have names along the lines of 'XoxoChula'

at least he didn't forget you. better your name spelled wrong. your dad loves you. most people don't have fathers or mothers.

Most people?

I might be a little rusty on my sex-ed, but don't you need both a father and a mother to make a baby?

I think your perspective is a little skewed...

Everyone has a mother and a father. A lot of people may have absent parents but I would not say most.
