Today, I dropped my kid into a crowded wishing fountain instead of a coin. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, while at the vending machine, I put in my $20 instead of my $1. I got my change back in quarters. FML
Today, I dropped my wallet and it fell into the perfectly sized hole in the storm drain. FML
Today, while coming out of Walmart, I dropped a $50 bill. Some kid came running up after me yelling, "Hey mister, you dropped this!" as he ran past me laughing. FML
Today, I accidentally kicked a child down a set of steps. I work in a kids play area. FML
Today, I dropped my trash into what I thought was a garbage can. My co-workers stared at me like I had just pissed myself. It was a toy collection box for children in foster care. FML
Today, I dropped my keys in the sewer. The spare ones are inside my locked car. FML
But… why would you do that?
Today, I drank water from a random, half-full water bottle I found inside a bumper car (AKA dodgems) at the local fairground, thinking it was mine. It wasn't. FML
Today, after creating a swear jar for my son, I came back to find a $20 bill in it and him saying, "How much does that buy?" FML
Today, after buying dinner from the supermarket, I had the change in my hand, and my wallet. In the parking lot, a quarter fell out of my hand, and right next to the street drain. As I went to pick it up, my wallet fell down the drain. FML
Queasy
Today, I tried being the 'cool parent' by taking my kids to a fancy, expensive amusement park, but ended up getting stuck on every ride and getting motion sickness. FML

Wait, you were trying to make a wish or a human sacrifice?

What's the difference?

Idk, I guess that wishes with sacrifices are faster than the regular ones

It must be because you are dehydrated. Find a vending machine that takes coins/kids and get yourself a nice cool drink.

How does one drop their kid into a coin, exactly? The wishing fountain sounds like it'd be an easier vector.

Lol I don't think you understood the FML correctly. OP dropped their kid into the fountain, not a coin. He meant he threw the kid instead of throwing a coin.

I believe #15 was criticizing the grammatical structure of this FML. "Dropping my kid into a fountain instead of a coin" makes it sound like the kid could otherwise be dropped into a coin. It's like dangling a participle, but it's not...

I'm still trying to figure out how someone even mistakes their child for a coin....

Did you drop a golden child, or a silver child?

Fishing the kid back up revokes the wish, but most likely you would want to have a slightly angry wife and a wet kid then being alone with that random shnazy car you wished for.
