Today, I helped my parents move out of their old house. While I was guiding my dad down the stairs with the couch, my mom asked me to pick up the tape on the step below me. I bent over and grunted. My dad thought I said "Go" and kept moving. He knocked me down two flights of steps. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while moving a couch and repeatedly asking my dad what he was trying to do and him ignoring me, I got my hand slammed between the corner of the couch and a doorway, because my dad shoved the couch without saying anything. I was holding the corner to stop it from falling on me. FML
Today, I fell down my stairs twice after helping a senior get in her car. FML
Today, my parents "suggested" I help them move house. I didn't realize that meant I would be carrying every single bit of furniture out of their house. The muscles in my arms are so tight now that I can't straighten them. I can't wait to help them unpack tomorrow. FML
Today, my dad asked me to move a potted plant from one side of the yard to the other. It looked like a very heavy pot, so I heaved it up with all my might. Turns out it was one of those heavy-looking ones that are actually light plastic. I fell over backwards and dumped dirt into my mouth. FML
Today, I was helping my Grandfather to sort through tubs and bins after cleaning out his attic, and I had to move a 50lb bin downstairs. That's when the dog thought it would be funny to block the top of the stairs as I was going down. FML
Today, I was struggling to move a large bookshelf downstairs. Mid-way down, the weight became too much for me and I desperately yelled to my dad for help. He stood at the top of the stairs and said, "Cash or broken bones. How much's it worth, son?" I'm now £50 poorer. FML
Today, I fell down a set of stairs while going into my basement. With a horrible pain in my left leg, I called out to my boyfriend to help me. Apparently a commercial about grass was more important. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs. My mom came running from the other room because she thought it was the dog. She rolled her eyes and walked away when she saw it was me. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs while reading the 'mind your step' sign. FML
Today, I'm at my grandparents' house to help clear snow. I was making a path to the driveway by pushing the snow out of the way. I saw a big pile and went to kick it really hard. Alas, it was a step. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

FYL. I don't see why your mom couldn't pick up the tape herself, if she saw you were carrying a large couch.

"don't worry happen to me and my ma all the time". don't be an idiot and question another person for some errors in their sentence, use your brain and you can figure it out :)

It's a couch. I doubt the dad was carrying it by himself. I'm assuming the OP was holding the other end, though his dad was holding the majority of the weight. And, despite that, OP's mom was still in the wrong.

Now you have a valid excuse to stop helping. You should be grateful.

Or let's be optimistic: OP was knocked backwards (I assume) down two flights of stairs and is still able to write an FML! Yaaaay life and full use of a body that could have been handicapable by now!

You're so stupid, who the **** would pick up tape while holding a couch. This must be fake, ydi, for being a liar.

#19 Why don't you YOU go fall down two flights of steps and see how "manly" you are then.

let me push a sofa down the stairs with you standing in front .. and to mix it up , lets throw in a pool of alligators at the bottom of the stairs .. then we'll see how manly you are afterwards.
