Today, I got into a huge fight with a girl at school. My mom and dad decided to punish me by letting my three older brothers pick out my wardrobe for the next week. 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
Unfortunate coincidences
Today, I finally stood up for myself and beat the crap out of a bully at school, as my father told me to do. The kid and I were called to the principal's office, along with our parents. Inside my father's smirk faded when he saw that the kid's mom was his boss. FML
Evil will always win
Today, I was suspended from school for “being involved in a fight.” The other girl beat me up while I didn't do anything to defend myself, for fear of getting in trouble. She got off scot free. FML
Today, my parents told me that they've been having a contest to see who could punish me the most this week. So far, my mom is in the lead by kicking me out of the car near railroad tracks, and making me walk the 4 miles home in the freezing rain. FML
FINE!
Today, my dad and mom and I were going out to eat dinner. My dad wanted a romantic dinner just with my mom so he told me to make an excuse not to go. I did, which ended up as a huge fight, grounded and phone taken away. My dad just stood there in the background putting thumbs up. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for going through her closet for some warmer clothes. She had a rant about taking her clothes without her permission, all while wearing a pair of my boots and one of my sweaters. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for fighting with my younger brother. Not because she wanted us to stop, but because my brother couldn't find a good comeback to my argument. FML
Today, I got into a fight with my mom over the chores, and stormed out. When I returned later, I found the house had been egged. My mom told my dad she saw me do it, and he won't believe my side of the story. He says I'll be lucky if I see sunlight this summer. FML
Teenage riot
Today, I finally had it with the redneck bully who's been tormenting me. He was repeatedly poking and pinching me and laughing out loud during class, so I slung him to the ground, pinning him. I got suspended. They only called his parents, who never do anything; my "caring" parents are looking into teen boot camp. FML
Today, my brother thought it would be hilarious to take a pair of scissors to all my bras. My mom can't take me shopping for another three days and I have no one to borrow a bra from. I have school. FML
Cool your jets
Today, my mom and siblings got into a fight. Being generally quiet and non-confrontational, I stayed out of it. Shortly thereafter, I was yelled at by my mother for being "ungrateful" and "disrespectful." I still don't know what I did wrong. FML

Burn anything you have that you don't want to be seen wearing in public. That hideous reindeer sweater in the back of your closet... Yeah, BURN IT NOW.

Is there an echo in here? Is there an echo in here?

Depends...some schools in IL are year-around schools. Either that or she is in summer school

Ah... my apologies. What would the Internet be if people where to actually look something up before jumping to conclusions though!

At least your parents are creative

looks like the pressure of having the first comment got to them *le sigh

Another example of a wasted first comment.

But...but, she's the second comment
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
Her number is two. But there isn't anyone above her on the comments.

Don't worry OP, assuming you're suspended, no one will see it.

Nigguh, hush up... Who did you steal your computer/phone from?..
ArielTheMermaid 17
Hey guys no one ever said the top comment ha to be creative. Maybe she genuinely laughed at this. OP, I wish you the best with that!!!
AKGirlinSD 20
9, Exactly! By far, the most original punishment I've ever heard of. Original poster, you should be glad you have clever parents, opposed to your parents that could write a "What If?" list, if you were never born.

not trying to be a dick or anything, but why is everyone put on blast if there is a bad first comment? I personally dont care enough to bitch them out because it is just a comment guys dnt let it ruin your day lol

Besides, it's the second comment and yes there IS a number 1, at least in my phone.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
209, Commenter one wasn't there when most of us commented. Hence my comment about there being no one above #2. The first comment reappeared.

81 oh shut up. Everyone knows guys can't pick girls colors out. Do you know what metro is? It's not gay. So just shut up.
LilTiki559 13
I can, I can put together an outfit for a female. I've helped my friends dress. I ****** even bought two whole outfits for my Girlfriend once. She was quite shocked..Lol, well, at how well I had done..she said I might be gay;/. Althoough I have proven to her, otherwise;D. .again and agaaainn..
French_Toast_fml 3
81- 3 said metrosexual, not homosexual. There's a huge difference. Homosexual refers to your sexual orientation, whereas metrosexual refers to your behavioral tendencies. Get your facts straight.
amandalillian 27
I think even if they were metrosexual that it would be worse, they would know then how to inflict the worst horror rather than just blindly choosing. There is no way her brothers aren't going to enjoy this and make it hard on her. Not in a mean way, but in a family way. Where these precious moments last forever
awilso13 8
I've picked out clothes for a girl before... Unfortunately. It's such a taxing experience smh.
ladyLALAA 29
I don't let anyone pick out my clothes, especially not a man. With the exception of my gay housemate, if he doesn't like something you're wearing out he will make you change it
HoboSmeller 6
hopefully they dress you like a nun so you learn your lesson and not fight with others.
iloveshim 14
I think that's harsh. You don't know the storyline, you don't know if she was defending her honor, or maybe her mom who has cancer's honor. You don't know her life, so check yourself before you wreck yourself. Just sayin'.

That is very rude u should be ashamed of urself. I think u should watch what u put because this is the Internet it will never go away and it could and will hurt somebody's feelings

I never understood why people think "defending your honor" justifies violence. I mean, even the most basic justice system, an eye for an eye, wouldn't justify that. :P There are so many other solutions... OP, if you're going to act like a child, you're going to be treated like one. Although I have to say, I kind of love your parents. My parents would NEVER let me get away with that. And extra points for creativity! :)
22cute 17
You are absolutely right, saksxalmo . Its nice to hear someone say it too! NOTHING justifies violence in my opinion, NOTHING Yes, we are all prone to violence. But to act on our violent tenancies is to admit defeat - "I am so out of control I can only behave like an animal!" The ONLY honor is in resisting violence.
kmsdvm24 11
Thank you, 112 & 127! @77 - Really? There is no reason to condone violence unless it's self defense and you're trying to stop it. I remember watching high school girls fight & thinking they were absolutely pathetic, regardless of the reason - and that was when I was their age! I definitely was not alone in that opinion. Besides, "Today, I got in a huge fight in school and my parents grounded me for two weeks. FML." wouldn't have made it on the site. At least her parents are creative and one day, probably in less than three years, she will laugh about this.
hardehar 9
It says she got in a fight, not why. Maybe OP was defending herself....
LOL1204 3
Maybe it's just me but, when someone says "fight," I don't automatically assume violence. Maybe a heated argument? If it was an actual violent fight, then yes she deserves it. However if she got into an argument to the point someone had to cut in, then I think that what you said is harsh. People are going to get in heated arguments. Even if you are being very polite, someone might not be as considerate.

But what if she starts to fly?? Susan Fields might sue
doglover100 29
Blood as in the babies died or the person got stabbed? The thing I don't get is, it's not the other girls fault it is the boy's. I don't get those fights between girls (even though I'm one) where the boy is cheating on them. It's the boy that's cheating it's his fault
NostalgiaFreak9 43
#112 If she only got into that fight to defend herself, then the violence was justifiable, but if she was fighting over something ridiculous, which I assume was the actual case, then she deserved the punishment.

Maybe she's in summer school?

FMLs take a while to be approved OP may have written it a few weeks or a month ago.

Burn anything you have that you don't want to be seen wearing in public. That hideous reindeer sweater in the back of your closet... Yeah, BURN IT NOW.

I'll take the reindeer sweater... D:

If her brothers would be so cruel to stick her in a sweater in June... I feel for her. I really do. I'm picky about my clothes. All the way down to what panties and socks I wear on what day.
KRS_13 0
Also she should throw out the old tacky knee high socks that she used to wear in 1st grade. You know you still have those in the back of your closet SOMEWHERES.
TheVelocirabbit 10
No!!! YOU CAN'T TAKE THEM!!

haha yeah id bury everything in some nearby forest lmao

Well some places are still cold in June so people are still wearing jumpers/sweaters. In England it was hot and then it got very cold..

She's in Illinois, not England.

This is why we don't fight, boys and girls. But... Maybe they'll take pity on you! I hope you haven't pissed them off lately.
chickenwalrus 14
she pissed them off by getting into a fight.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
How would that piss her brothers off? Now her parents, I can understand. But I'm sure her brothers have gotten in trouble at least once, too.

There could've been a good reason to fight... I had one in my fight this year.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
Unless it's verbal, it's still wrong. No one should ever lay hands on anyone.
MarisaCB 16
That's stupid, I'm sorry. If someone started beating the shit out of me, I won't say, "Uhm, excuse me ma'am, would you mind ceasing in your whaling? Thank you!" I'm going to hit back.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
Well no one said she didn't start the fight. The fight could have easily been over something petty like someone looking at her wrong.
N1ghtmar3 5
I agree fighting is wrong and should be avoided if possible, but if someone is going to pick a fight with me im not going to sit there and take it. Maybe OPs parents punished her because of the reason why she did it, not because of the fact that she did fight.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
ONCE AGAIN. The OP never said what insinuated the fight. If it was something petty and OP threw the first punch, or tit was over a boy or something, she does deserve it. But if someone threw the first hit, I can understand.

Dude that would be hilarious!! I feel you though I got three older brothers myself. It is torture..... Get through it and then wear super awesome outfits the next week!!

ucoolgirl31 20
113 - You're probably some little kid thinking you're so cool for trying to insult me. Or you are an adult who can't grow up and realize that insulting others gets you nowhere in life. And you know what I like the way I look and that is more than you can say, you don't even have a profile picture.
sleepywaterpony 5
Sometimes 128's forehead chews my fingernail.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
You guys are assholes. She's a pretty girl. Considering most of you guys' profile pictures don't even contain your face, you should shut up. Leave her be. Shit. Be mature.
