Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my dad refused to pick me up because he didn't want to get off the couch, so I had to walk for an hour and a half to get home. When I finally got home, my dad had gone out to pick my sister up from her friend's house. Her friend lives a 3-minute walk away. FML
Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML
Today, my dad made me quit my online school classes and go back to public school, because apparently when I'm on the computer, it makes his video games lag. FML
Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. FML
Today, I had to pick up my dad because he was too drunk to drive home. Drive his wheelchair home, that is. FML
Today, instead of having my friends come pick me up, my dad drove me over to visit them. He insisted on walking me up to the door, hugging me goodbye, and making sure my friends were appropriate enough to hang out with. I'm in college. FML
Today, I told my dad that I was going to sleep over my friend's house this weekend with a few other guys to play Dungeons and Dragons. He responded with, "Oh, back in my day, me and my pals used to pick on the kids who played Dungeons and Dragons." FML
Today, my dad lied and said he was busy working, all because he didn't want to see me. FML
Today, my dad called, saying he was in town and that he wanted to see me. I was excited, thinking he wanted to come see my new apartment. Turns out he just wanted to borrow my Xbox. FML
Today, despite the fact that I've lived alone for four years, and have a well-paid job, my father is still whining about, "Why am I still playing video games at age 32?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

glad to see you play WoW or even try to fake playing, lol, necromancer isn't a class. As for OP, sad to see how he can't take a little bit of time to take care of his family.

Of course! Never mess with uld. Now you should be mad if it was like nooby 10 naxx. It all depends

I play WoW myself, and i raid too. Even if i'm doing 25-man Ulduar, Toc10 or an other raid, family would always come first for me (I'd give 'em hell for it, but i'd still pick them up). But then again, i'm DPS so i'm very easy to replace. If your dad was the MT, then maybe it would be a bit harder to leave.

You could've called a cab, he'd have to pay for it. But yea, since your nickname is stupid... Oh, and besides that, if you didn't call him like few hours before, then YDI. He was doing SOMETHING HE PLANNED, and something HE PROBABLY PROMISED. He didn't want to abandon his friends. Wow, you people are so shallow when it comes to MMORPGs and games in generally. I mean, people on the other side of the screen are people, too :/

The way I remember it, having a kid doesn't involve any promises or contracts. But WOW, that's what, fifteen bucks a month? Gotta get your money's worth.

they are not permanent friends, and will forgive in 5 minutes. UNLIKE YOUR GODDAMN FAMILY

"He promised to raise her long before he promised to do this raid. " "they are not permanent friends, and will forgive in 5 minutes. UNLIKE YOUR GODDAMN FAMILY" Hahah, I like how you two KNOW that HE DID PROMISE and that he's NOT PLAYING WITH HIS RL friends, but some "random strangers" ='D And I totally agree with #39. Exactly what I wanted to say, but better :D
Exerci 0
Promising to raise her does not equal promise to turn her into a spoiled brat for whom everyone are willing to drop everything in their hands as soon as she asks. God knows I've seen too many of those while in high school and up.

Raise her? Is her dad a priest? Did she get hit by a car on the way home?

I'm a long-term MMORPG player. So first of all. People who commit and allocate a certain time span to people that they've possibly spent countless years bonding with are hard to let down. People that are highly inconsiderate of such players schedule deserve to be left doing things themselves. Raid progression is crucial in MMOs, so if you want to make the claim that we are all losers, I implore you to gather the tens of millions of people and tell them they are wasting their lives on efficient and effective entertainment systems while you can pay substantially and exponentially more to sit your ass on a damn couch screaming at an agglomeration of pixels. If you have not played or have any experience with a category of gameplay or video games in general. Shut the hell up. It's like a newborn saying lollipops are disgusting.
