Today, I discovered that my family routinely waits until after my bedtime to order a pepperoni pizza, my favorite food. If that wasn't bad enough, I'm 17 and still have a strictly enforced bedtime. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I felt like cheating on my diet and ordered a pizza. My mom and my sister were napping, so I put in the delivery notes, “Please don’t knock.” The delivery guy knocked anyway. LOUD. My mom and sister got up and saw everything. FML
Today, yet again, we have a fridge full of food, but my wife asked if we can order pizza in front of the kids, who all started jumping in excitement yelling, "PIZZA!" Now I can either say no and deal with pouting and tantrums, or waste money on crappy pizza. FML
Today, I ordered a pizza online to be delivered to my apartment. After an hour of waiting, I called the pizza place to ask what the problem was. Apparently, the people at the apartment below me took my already paid for pizza and ate it. FML
Today, at the age of 20, I still have a bed time. It is strictly enforced by my cat via endless meows if I am up past 11 pm. FML
Today, my parents heard me leaving my room at 2 am, and freaked out because they thought I was sneaking out. I was too embarrassed to tell them that I was getting food instead of having a social life. FML
Today, my dad learned how to use the parental controls. I now have an 11 o'clock curfew. I am 17. FML
Today, I found out that my favorite pizza place will no longer deliver to my area after dark because they've been robbed too many times. FML
Today, it’s my birthday. My family tradition is that whoever has the birthday chooses the dinner. I chose pizza, but my older sister had a tantrum, complete with throwing my phone at the wall, breaking it, saying she wanted Chinese instead. My parents ordered Chinese. FML
Today, due to my wife saying I never cook and that we always order pizza, I spent a good hour preparing dinner. While serving it to my kids, they started complaining. My wife told them to shut up. When she took a bite, she looked up at me, smiled, and said, "Do you, you know, want to just order pizza?" FML
Today, my parents insisted that despite the fact I've just turned sixteen, I have to save them money by ordering from the children's menu, because I "still look like a twelve year-old." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Better yet, get a job as a pizza delivery driver and refuse to take pizzas to that house.

Order a pepperoni pizza for yourself, and refuse to share.

Is the pizza on top of the normal meal which presumably you eat earlier? If so you must have a chubby family if it is a routine thing.

So, order your own pizza!

It's sad that they are excluding you. However feeding a 17 year old teenage male can be expensive. I doubt you would only eat a slice or two, more likely a whole pizza. I know I could easily do that when I was around 17. As such it can add up quick feeding you when they are ordering pizza... It could easily double there bill. If you had a job and offered to pay your own half I'm sure your family would be more agreeable to include you in their pizza time.

Wake up earlier and order your own pizza. Then leave the empty box for them to see.

Sneak out, wait for pizza delivery in your driveway/front garden area. Eat pizza. Sneak back inside to bed. Say nothing. Be happy.

I used to love pepperoni pizza. I say used to, as I've been allergic to it since I was eight. So now my family will sometimes order pepperoni pizza just so I can't eat any of it. FML to us both.

Out of curiosity, what about pepperoni pizza are you allergic to?

call the pizza and tell them to add on a second pizza.

Very selfish family you have

Hey, you have 1 more year. I am also a 17 year old with overprotective parents. Simple solution:At school, during lunch, order a box or two of pepperoni pizza and save the last slice. The next time you see your parents, eat the last slice in front of them. Bonus points if you can also figure out how to block the call from every single pizza place within 20 miles from your house phone.

Unless they are sending you to bed hungry... food in your belly and a warm place to sleep is more than a lot of people have. Count your blessings.
