Today, at a friendly get-together, my friend's husband had too much to drink and got into a fistfight with my husband. I'm seven-and-a-half months pregnant, and the friendly get-together was my baby shower. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my wife invited 45+ people to her baby shower, but literally 4 people came. Now I get to deal with my pregnant wife and her fluctuating hormones. FML
Today, security had to break up a fist fight in the labor & delivery unit. After giving birth, my roommate was attacked by the baby daddy’s wife. However, a second man was also there and started fighting the couple. It was a total melee so I grabbed both babies and hid in the bathroom. FML
Today, I was at a party at my boyfriend's house. As I was walking past him, he pulled me onto his lap and started introducing me to a childhood friend. I sneezed and accidently peed on him. I'm 6 months pregnant and can't control my bladder. FML
Today, I was rushed to the hospital to deliver my child. On the way, I called my husband who was in a bar with his friends. Drunk, he just yelled, "BROS BEFORE HOS!!" and hung up. FML
Today, I found out I'm pregnant. My husband reacted by going out and smoking weed, then getting completely shitfaced, and having his buddies drag his nearly-comatose carcass back home from a strip club. FML
Today, I had to leave my ACT prep class ten minutes in to pick up my drunken father from his best friend's baby shower. I picked him up along with a bill for the damage. FML
Today, I attended my husband's holiday brunch at a company I also used to work for. I was excited to see former coworkers until one raced up, grabbed my belly, and in front of a crowded room, exclaimed, "You're pregnant!" Nope, just older and a bit fatter. FML
Today, I was dragged to a Super Bowl party. While there, the host's kid threw 3 cups of apple sauce at my feet, which then exploded and covered my jeans. 10 minutes later, the host's wife announced that she was pregnant with twins. All I could come up with was, "You're making more!?" FML
Today, after years of bad blood, my husband decided to invite his parents to dinner. After making rude remarks about my pregnancy, his dad eventually muttered that I'm a slut. My husband punched him, his wife called the police, and now I'm all alone while he sits in a jail cell for battery. FML
Today, my mother-in-law invited all my wife’s friends and family, and my family, to her baby shower, well over a 50-60 people. Two people came. FML

Did his daughter have to leave her ACT prep class early to collect his sorry ass and pay for the damages?

This is why I don't drink. And alcohol at a baby shower? With guys? I wouldn't do it.... Ha

This is why you never reveal the sex of the child until they are born. Some people just can't handle it. Damn you, ultrasounds!

Sounds like some Jerry Springer stuff

At least it wasn't a riot with 200 people. I heard about that on the news a couple weeks ago.

Who brought alcohol to a baby shower?

That's why men should not go to baby showers. They are for women

The reason they got drunk has to be because they were at a baby shower. Who brings a man to such an event? When he says "yeah that sounds awesome" it generally means "get me the f*** out of this situation!". Don't even tell the man about it, it'll end badly for one of you.

Do people really enjoy having baby showers or being invited to them? We don't have them over here in Europe. (friends and family give gifts or donate baby stuff that they do not use any longer individually, either before the birth, or more frequently on their first visit). I can imagine it is a bit akward for men to feel relaxed on these events. I maybe wrong, since i've never been to one.

It's just another cultural thing in america. It's stupid in every regard, kind of like taping your birth.

Taping a birth should seems wrong to me.

Men and alcohol, two things that shouldn't be at a baby shower. I know it is becoming popular, but this is exactly why it should not be. There was nothing wrong with this being a woman only event.
