Today, I found the iPod touch that my mother claimed was stolen at the mall a few years ago, lying on her bed, still logged in to her Facebook. Thanks, mom. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my mom uses my Facebook account more than I do. FML
Today, I found my daughter's brand new ipod touch. At the bottom of the washing machine. FML
Today, my mother "checked in" to rehab on Facebook. The same rehab that told her to hand over her smartphone. The dumbass was smart enough to steal my phone and dumb enough to get it confiscated. FML
Today, I found out that my mom has linked my iPhone with her iPad and has been secretly reading my texts. FML
Today, I found a topless photo of my mother on my phone. Thanks, iCloud. FML
Today, after working the night shift, I accidentally left my iPod at the office. I woke up later and went on Facebook. To my dismay, I saw some coworker had posted stuff on my wall, such as, "I really have to take a shit!" and "Yes, my tits are real!" FML
Today, I noticed that my mom had left the house without her cell phone. I called her phone to let her know she forgot it. FML
Today, my dad let me use his phone. Five minutes later, he had my mom call it because he thought he'd lost it. FML
Today, while on vacation with my family, my mother told me to put my phone in her purse, so it wouldn't get stolen. Someone stole her purse. FML
Today, my girlfriend thought it would be funny to go to the Apple store and log me on to Facebook on every single computer. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

My mom did that with my science book once. #horriblechildhoodmemories

No you don't feel the same pain.. There is a huge difference between an IPOD and a Gameboy. The OP's mom was using the iPod. I don't think your mom was on the Gameboy._. Right?

Your mother plays pokemon? I'd say you're life rocks!

I dont think you understand the pain of a losing a gameboy #11
kelsorg 21
gameboys are awesome why wouldn't she be on it?
tucansamTommyG 12
Well actually it was a gameboy ds which i bought for 200$ so its about the same price
tucansamTommyG 12
So no not that big of a difference

#16 The Nintendo DS isn't a gameboy -.- the Gameboy is another device so you should have said it was a DS.

#13 Your * Not you're. You're = You Are.

Sorry I meant #12 not 13

#25 DS is still a gameboy they are all gameboys like gameboy advance, colour etc.

35: "Nintendo DS" not GameBoy DS.

I'm a mother who plays pokemon and plenty of other games, but I won't ever be too cheap to buy something for my daughter and then pretend someone stole it. I'll just save money and make sure we both have one to enjoy, and if that means I have to wait a while to get mine, so be it. I don't understand how a parent could do that and live with themselves. How do you look your child in the eye and tell them it is wrong to lie and steal if you yourself are a liar and a thief.

#35 Please, Don't Say stuff you dont know. Hell NO a DS is not a gameboy. I've worked at an electronics shop for 2 years and I've been a computer geek since i was a little kid. There is the original Gameboy, Gameboy Pocket, Gameboy Color,Gameboy Advance ,Gameboy Advance SP and Gameboy Micro. a DS is not a gameboy, never was and never will be. Just because it was launched by Nintendo it does not mean its a gameboy.

#35 the DS is a new series of hand held gaming consoles. Gameboy- 1 screen. DS- 2 screens (1 touchscreen, 1 normal screen.)

I have a nintendo DS with a gameboy slot. Yes it's a DS but still qualifies as a gameboy. Maybe not to you but it does to me.
Invisibleguyy 11
#43 Well first of all, the gameboy DID NOT support game cartridges till 2001. When the GameboyAdvance was released. The original gameboy was released in 1989 and it didn't have a slot to put games in it. So yeah It is true that ONLY the first two models of the Nintendo DS had a GameboyAdvance Slot. The latest Nintendo DS to support GameboyAdvance games was released in 2006. But that does NOT make it a Gameboy. This is called backward compatibility. There is a cable available to connect GameboyAdvance cartridges to your PC. It is just like the slot on the DS. But Does that make your PC a gameboy? I don't think so :)

The DS is its own line of handheld consoles. A DS is as much of a Gameboy as Gameboy is a Game & Watch. Also being able to play games of another thing doesn't make it that. My gamecube is not a Gameboy advance. The wii isn't a gamecube. Playing older systems is something companies do since people are more likely to buy it. it means there are more playable games for it from the start, even though most aren't made specifically for the new system, plus gives the option of selling the old system to afford the new one, causing an increase in sales.

Of course the original gameboy and gameboy color had cartridges! What else did you think they came on?
zach205 24
43 the orriginal gameboy did have a slot for games. how else would you play the 716 games that it had? The slot is right on the back, you should look up a picture of one
tucansamTommyG 12
After a little thinking i realized that i was wrong
asnakelovinbabe 16
Someone on the internet has admitted they were wrong. I'm pretty sure hell is now frozen over. Seriously though, major props to you for that.
Invisibleguyy 11
50 I meant it did not have game cartridges like the one on the GBA and DS.
sometimessam 16
I became a computer geek reading this thread. Thanks guys!
asnakelovinbabe 16
So that's how it works? I'm off to read a thread about space now so I can become an astronomer.

My brother did the same thing with the old cell phones I'd get from my mom
NemusKiller 5
Maybe she didn't use the Gameboy but the batteries could have another use...
shudson186 17
#11 clearly you don't understand that she just wanted to catch them all.
zach205 24
54 yes, it did. they were bigger than the gba and ds ones, but they did use game cartridges or as they are also known as game paks.
gpg5 19
My dad did the same thing with my gba
Backb0ne5p1d0r 4
77 I just meant they weren't the same one gosh. She was saying a Nintendo DS is a game boy cause it has the same slot for cartridges but I told tell that the GBA slot was introduced in 2001. I was saying the Ds didn't have the same one as the original gameboy.
TheAtheistChild 10
73 has a good point. Batteries are extremely rare to find in my household.
LunarServant 10
What?!?! You're moms a bitch man
hallabaloooo 11
That's ****** up..
ForFudgeSake 6
Technically, she wasn't lying.
Arwen_Evenstar 37
That depends where she was when she stole it. May still have been technically lying.
mysadlyfe 9
Some mom! Sorry OP!

Time to take revenge via her Facebook status!!!!
sunnyray812 42
Though it is a good revenge, it could get OP grounded or some other form of punishment. If she steals things from her own child, she'd most likely isn't fair to him and could punish him. I hope she doesn't, though. :(
TunaFireStarter 16
I think I'd risk the punishment if I was mad enough...
LunarServant 10
Screw y'all. **** her Facebook up. REVEEENNNNNNGE
Dawminator 16
My mom did that to me too. She even made me buy a new one.
aBanana_1 10
Thats pretty ****** up.
Goblin182 27
Well #5, at least after you bought a new one she didn't steal that one and leave the old one for you.
mr_aaaaaaaa 12
Hmmm, that sucks, I would be angry if anyone even my parents take my stuffs without my permission, talk to ur mum and she still do that to u, time to move out
abhi95 31
Move out? Seriously? You are one extremely volatile element!
nlm92 15
Moving out is hardly the cakewalk many people seem to think it is... Believe me you don't wanna rush into it over an iPod...
QueenofWheels 13
Volatile? They said move out not kill her. I wouldn't want to live with somebody who steals.
BrotherPhil 35
It's not a cakewalk, as you say, but if if someone as that blatantly disrespectful, it could be a step to consider.
davincidasecond 24
Time to make some ridiculously embarrassing Facebook posts.
Invisibleguyy 11
Well maybe she didn't lie to you. It was stolen at the mall. By her. _.
XxAlonexX4 2
well now you can take it back xD gotta look at the bright side there lol
PassiveAggresive 12
Well how about some payback! She's still logged in on her Facebook right?
