Today, I found an injured rabbit by the side of the road. I was about to take it to the local vet, when my husband picked it up and casually snapped its neck. "No rabbit's worth my money" he said, forgetting that he's been a jobless moocher for over 3 years. Pass me the goddamn divorce papers. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents, and now they have a dead rabbit because I sat on it. FML
Today, I found out my dad ate my pet rabbit two years ago. He said he ran away. FML
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Today, while I was at work, my dumbass husband gave his dead rabbit a Viking funeral by sending it down the river behind our house in a crate he set on fire. It got stuck on a tree, which caught on fire, along with the field and the warehouse next to the field. The police think he did it on purpose. FML
Today, after I warned my son repeatedly that if he wanted a rabbit he had to clean and feed it, I checked on it. It wasn’t just dead, it was dead and rotting in a pool of its own pee and faeces. I yelled at him, but he just shrugged and told me rabbits are boring and he forgot it was even there. FML
Today, my cat died. But, before he could bite the dust, he left a goodbye present on my bed: a decapitated baby rabbit. FML
Today, my rabbit died. He died a painful death from ingesting too much carpet. I now have no rabbit and a patchy carpet. FML
Today, my dad and I were in the car when a rabbit scurried across the road, just missing us. My dad turned and said to me, "Well, it's good we didn't hit him. He gets to live another day." I then looked in the rear view mirror to see the rabbit running away from the cross traffic, only to be hit by the car behind us. FML
Today, I drove home on my birthday, and my mom said she'd meet me there. I was a little surprised to get home and find she wasn't there, but even more shocked to see my rabbit run over in my driveway. Turns out he'd gotten loose and my mom had run him over, panicked, and left. FML
Today, I walked outside to see my boyfriend standing on my porch, looking confused. He explained to me that he had attached a prom proposal note to his pet rabbit, and let it inside my house to find me. We went looking for said rabbit, and found my dog halfway through eating it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

No need for divorce papers. Just throw him into a sarlacc pit. World: improved.

The big difference is that he didn't do it out of mercy, but selfishness and with a clear lack of empathy. And if the vet couldn't take care of it they probably would've called a wildlife rehab place.

Not that I wouldn't be upset if someone did this, but you can't assume he is inherently evil. If you grew up in the country, this is commonplace. You kill an animal that is suffering. Generally this involves shooting them but my grandpa snapped rabbits necks and cooked them for dinner all the time before he died.

I can sympathize about having a lazy, jobless husband. But injured wildlife is put down. I'd have snapped it's neck too. Quick, painless, humane. It's the right thing to do.

I sincerely hope you're serious about those divorce papers

To the people defending the guy, let's say you happened to break your arm on a hike. Would you rather whoever is with you to snap your neck so nobody has to pay for anything, or would you rather go to the freakin hospital?

We're not rabbits. I thought that was obvious.

If its a "badly injured rabbit on the side of the road" it is safe to say it had more than a broken leg, first of all, so your little comparison doesn't work. So yeah, if I am borderline roadkill, put me out of my misery. My living will says so. I don't condone the guys methods - that is twisted - but I can guarantee you, even with just a broken leg, if it was wild, the vet would just put it down. Hell, they do it with stray cats and dogs as well. If you think otherwise you are naive. I've adopted two stray cats that, when I turned them into the vet, was told "we'll just put him down. We can't cover the costs and he is a stray." At two different clinics, as well.

He did the right thing. The vet would have just euthanised it anyway

Dude, you're going to divorce him because he killed a rabbit??
krakenbanana 15

Divorce over a rabbit. Ridiculous

Being a deadbeat waster for 3 years also contributes to OP wanting to leave him, I'd imagine...Although, if my boyfriend heartlessly snapped my rabbit or any other animal's neck (wild or domesticated), I'd be beyond freaked out myself...

I mean fair enough to be freaked out but there shouldn't be a dealbreaker solely on that. Although depending on circumstances 3 years unemployment maybe. But certainly not on solely killing an animal. Especially if you're not a vegetarian. Sometimes killing animals is for the better good. I mean I've killed chickens and stuff. It's just a thing that has to be done.
