Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I spent seven dollars to find out I’m allergic to kiwi. FML
Today, I'm 25 years old, I've got an education and I only now found out in front of 15 people that, no, sparrows are not small pigeons that are going to grow up. FML
Today, I found a tiny, featherless baby bird. I knew it was impossible, but I tried to keep it alive through the day. Before I could get it to the wildlife center, it died, and when I got all choked up over it, my mom started laughing at me and saying how "weak" I was. FML
Today, I learned that it's possible to get hit by a bird while bungee jumping. FML
Today, I found out the joke I’ve been telling for 15 years is true. I am adopted. FML
Today, I found out that worms in apples aren't something that you just see in cartoons. FML
Today, around 12 a.m., my pet parrot said a sentence I've never heard him say before. Usually this would be exciting, but considering he said, 'I killed the bird', and that one of my two love birds mysteriously died a few days ago, it's safe to say I'm now terrified. FML
Today, my parents finally fulfilled my wish of a pet that I could take care of for a few years. They got a parrot. I guess 75 years or more is a few years to my parents. FML
Today, a bird crashed into my face. I didn't think that actually happened to people outside of cartoons. FML
Today, I found out my lifespan has been reduced by a year just because of where I was born. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This would be funnier if you lived in New Zealand. Do you?

You were probably thinking of a dodo. Easy mistake.

Scouts in USA think a Snipe Hunt is a hunt for an imaginary bird. I knew it was a bullshit hunt when I looked up Snipes and realized the bird isn't native to my area. Unless you live in a place where Kiwi are a native species it's reasonable for you to not know one way or the other.

More than twice you age. I thought they were extinct too until I read your post.
