Today, a hobo shook me down for money on the street. He's my brother, who incidentally ran away from home over two years ago. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my brother finally paid me the $60 he owed me. I later found out that he'd stolen those $60 from my wallet. FML
Today, I came home to found all of my belongings out on the street. My roommate, who is also my brother, apparantly neglected to pay his part of the rent, and we got evicted. FML
Today, I found out that my brother has been stealing money from me for the past five months. FML
Today, I was walking down the street, when a man behind me tapped me on the shoulder. He gave a $5 bill and said that he thought I had dropped it. Not having the integrity to turn him down, I took it. I spent the next 20 minutes being chased by a crazy hobo who claimed that it was his. FML
Today, my 19-year-old brother broke into my dorm and robbed me. When I tried to file a report, my brother went to my parents and told them that he took it because I owed him money on a bet. Guess who lost $92.50. FML
Today, a hobo threw up on my car while at a red light. He then asked me for money. FML
Today, after my aunt died and left me everything, I found my heroin addict brother searching my house, demanding his share of the money. He thought I had it in cash, so I called the cops. Now our mom is mad at me because a good brother would have given him something. FML
Today, my brother robbed someone. The victim spoke with me and said that if his $1500 was paid back, he wouldn’t press charges. After I gave him the money, I questioned my brother until he admitted doing it. He only took $200. FML
Today, my brother bamboozled me out of 20$. He's 12 years-old, and I'm 17. FML
Today, my brother and I were nearly made homeless by a good friend and roommate, because after repeatedly leading on my brother, and admitting she’s disrespected me all along, she and her boyfriend took off suddenly without a word of notice, leaving us to a house we can't afford alone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Ma'boy, you have yee self a hobro there do ya? I don't know why that came out with a pirate voice in my head, but I had to type it that way. Well, anyways, happy leaf erikson day! Hin ga din ga din

Just because he's family doesn't mean OP needs to give him money or bring him home! He may have treated OP and family horribly when he lived at home. He may not be safe for OP to bring home!

I don't think someone who abuses their family would run away. I think someone who is abused (or doesn't feel at home in home) would run away...
onlychildFTW 34
So OP, what did you do when you found out it was your brother? We'd all like to know!

did he remember you? haha
queen_awks 16
Chances are he did, what with them being siblings and all that.

I'm sorry this is so irrelevant but it's really bugging me so im going to tell you. Nirvana is one of my favorite bands as well, but that quote from Kurts suicide note in your picture isn't his own quote, it's David Bowie. Thought you should know so you don't misquote him. Apologies!

32 is wrong as well, Neil Young wrote that lyric as part of "My My Hey Hey" on his Rust Never Sleeps album.

..... Who cares?

31, his Love, Courtney quoted him in one of her songs with Hole. it's great to be a really dedicated fan, but doesn't give you the right to go around treating others as if they are inferior to your own (perceived) status as a fan. a LOT of poems/lyrics have used that line - including cobain himself. I dedicated a track mark to him everyday! doesn't mean I give kids wearing the T-shirts from hot topic grief.

not to be a troll, I sweat, but reading My comment after sleeping it does look stupid. please disregard it. all of us are assholes at 5;00 am. xD
ObsessedWithMe 13
Aw, will he let you bring him home to work things out?
isaiaah 6

dubstep12 8
Ooh piece of candy, ooh piece of candy, ooh piece of candy!

U do no u just copied the one before u right?

Could you bring him home and try to help him out money wise? If he's desperate enough to stop people and rob/ask for money i'm sure anything you could do to help him woukd be taken gladly.
aleeshttylXD 9
you look like gibby from iCarly.
lexeous 4
43, nobody cares.
iliketurdles 7
I do! Gibby and his shirtless endeavours are amusing.
oneFUCKINword 8
#8 - not necessarily.. If he obviously left for a good reason, and some times it's better on the streets begging, than staying at home for what ever reason.
pandalover69 26
sounds like she's doing ok, maybe her brother had some problems
vanessaizawesome 8
Quick question why are you guys talking about icarly now??? And FYI yes he does look more like Freddy than Gibby just sayin
olpally 33
be glad he's alive op... :) i know i'd take him home if i were you... family is family... don't turn your back on him
CaramelMacchiato 13
I don't think OP's brother one day thought to himself, "Y'know, I think I'm gonna run away today." There isn't enough information provided in this FML to tell us more about OP's life, but you never know the reason why he ran away. Maybe he was trying to escape from someone/somebody was after him and he had no choice but to leave? I wouldn't recommend bringing him back home, but I think OP should at least take him somewhere safe so he can get the help he needs! :')
olpally 33
very well said, not enough information, but your theory is most likely accurate... i wish we had more information about it.
CaramelMacchiato 13
Same, dude. It'd be cool to see follow-ups and stuff :D
b0ngs 7
well, since he is your brother maybe give him some money and try to coax him back home. if he's a lost cause just give him the money
jesinuevo 3
Weird conversation: " give me your mon!...oh hey sis, how you been?"
vanessaizawesome 8
Well that would be quite awkward
KingCeltic77 18
Let him take your money. No matter what he's still your brother.
CaramelMacchiato 13
"Let him take your money." Erm, no, stealing is still stealing no matter who you are.
Disobey_fml 13
She Should offer him help instead
cmyk 19
Wouldnt want to help my sis/ bro if they robbed me instead of reaching out to me..
vanessaizawesome 8
Exactly like 20 said stealing us stealing even if it's op's bro!! But op could have reached out and offered to help.
22cute 17
Most street people need psychological help to function in society.
braydin72 6
I totally agree. And maybe offer him a place to stay. Family is forever.
