Today, I got a gift-wrapped package in the mail from my racist mother-in-law. She's always hated me, so I thought it was a bit strange. Inside was a squirt gun and a note telling me to take my "black ass" for a walk around a police station with it, followed with a smiley face. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I received three big boxes from my mother in law, containing expensive cookware. I was puzzled, because I know that she hates me. Turns out she mailed them to us by mistake. Not only did she not get us anything, but I now have to pay to ship the boxes to her neighbor. FML
Today, I received the 'special' present my mother had sent me for my 21st birthday. I opened the box and saw that my mother had picked out, accessorized and shipped to me, in college, a doll. FML
Today, I received a package at work. Thinking it was something I ordered, I opened it in front of my coworkers. It was a gift from my grandmother: a giant pink, “I Love My Grandson” T-shirt. The worst part? They insisted I put it on and take a picture to send to her. FML
Today, my hateful mother-in-law showed up unexpectedly. I faked taking a phone call so the bitter old hag would leave me alone. She then pulled out her phone, called my number, and glared at me as my phone rang against my ear. FML
Today, I came home a day after my birthday, and was greeted by my mother who told me, "Oh, I have birthday present for you." She explained that she and my father went on a hike, and handed me my present. I got a fucking stick for my birthday. FML
Today, my wife made me go with her to dinner with her parents, despite their long-standing hatred of me. Later on, my mother-in-law muttered to me, "I made yours special for ya", smirked, then made a show of scratching at her butt-crack. FML
Today, my racist grandmother was complaining that the new nurse at her nursing home is a black woman. I casually asked, "Is she cute?" I'm now out of the will. FML
Today, I saw my neighbor's Christmas tree they had put up on their porch, with decorative presents under it. Being that my neighbors hate me, I figured I would take a present to piss them off. While walking back home with the present, I opened it. Inside it read "I knew you would, douche bag." FML
Today, my family threw me my 21st birthday party. My grandma's gift turned out to be a pack of condoms. "Not that you'll ever get to use them," she said, turning and walking off, cackling maniacally. Now I remember why I never talk to the old crone. FML
Today, my pissed off girlfriend used window marker to write racist comments on my car window. This included Nazi symbols, "white power", and a few others I won't mention. I live in a predominantly black neighborhood. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

The ugliness of some people never ceases to amaze me.

The fact that it's holiday season, and somebody who is supposed to be your family, can come up with disrespectful "gifts" like this is just a mystery to me.

Your husband better handle this before you do because I know if it was me who got that package, all hell would break lose.

confused how anyone could vote that op deserved it...

There are people who despite the FML always press you deserve it, mostly for the badges that you get for doing so.

Sometimes I simply miss the button I wanted to press. They're so close together; and I can't take back whatever my vote is once I've "chosen" my vote. Wasn't always like that. I wish they would change it back.

It could also unfortunately be other racist people who agree with the mother-in-law's actions.

Your spouse really should confront their mother. When my ex's grandfather found out that I am 1/4 black he asked him if he was worried that our children might look "too ethnic." SMH

That's incredibly disgusting of her. I don't understand how people can hate others just because of the color of their skin, economic class, etc. This is why the U.S. has so many of the problems it has today.

It is not just in the U.S. This happens everywhere. Sad, but true

Uh, well, no. Not to that extent, though we have our morons too.

Because sadly, there are some people from the dark ages of America still alive, and rather than accept change and open up their minds, they'd rather go back to the, in their own words, "good ol' days", and they teach their kids that this kind of hate and prejudice is acceptable. And by doing that, they hope that America will go back to that way again.

To put it simply: What a ******* bitch. I hope you don't have to deal with her often, and I hope your significant other is way better than that.
