Today, I went to a surprise birthday party for a friend. Everyone was hiding and waiting to yell "Surprise!" when I got a call from my mom. I was loudly discussing family gossip and trying to get my mom to hang up when the door opened. Everyone yelled "Surprise!" and then turned to stare at me. FML

Today, I got together a surprise party for my mom's birthday. I invited all her friends and her douchebag boyfriend who I don't get along with. When my mom got home, he took credit and got her friends to back him up with bribing. My mom said I'm selfish and horrible for not trying for her. FML
Today, my drunken mother woke up after having passed out and yelled at me for ditching school. It took half an hour to explain that it's 5:00, and I've already been to school. FML
Today, I left a concert with my drunk mother who had spilled beer all over my shirt. I drove her home and she slept it off. Later, my mom "found" my shirt in the laundry and grounded me for drinking behind her back. She won't believe me that it was her. FML

What this person is really saying "my mom accidentally told me about the surprise party my family is nice enough to plan" FYL your family cares about you... Dumb reason for an FML post

happy birthday op! id be planning a surprise party for your mom except with nonalcoholic drinks (here's the catch, don't tell her they are nonalcoholic and watch her complain how she can't get drunk)

Drunken words are sober thoughts... And sober thoughts, are sometimes very stupid. Your mom needs to control her liquor a little better. Happy birthday btw!
