Today, I had to call the cops to break up a fistfight at my mother's funeral. It turns out my two brothers care more about having a pissing match over their favorite football teams than they do honoring our mother's memory. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Don't hate the player…
Today, my son is such an idiot that he forgot he invited both his girlfriends to my brother's funeral. They started a punch-up over him and everyone ended up joining in since we're a very argumentative family. People got arrested and in the end both girls agreed to share my son, who was unconscious. FML
Today, I got called to a biker bar to break up a fight between my parents. FML
Today, my brother was arrested for starting a fistfight at a funeral. He didn't even know the deceased; he's just been crashing funerals recently, hoping to hook up with mourners. I'm not sure who's more pathetic: him for doing such a thing, or me for bailing his fucking dumb arse out of jail. FML
Today, at my grandmother's funeral there was a fight about inheritance. It was my teenage daughters arguing about what they get when I die. FML
Over my dead body
Today, I prevented my brother from attending our sister's funeral, since they hated each other and she didn't want him there, in accordance with her wishes. Now the whole family hates me and say that I should have let him in and that sometimes, you have to go against someone's wishes. FML
Today, my younger brother and I got into a fight over who the favorite child is. My mom overheard, came in the living room and said, "It's your little brother, now shut up." She was serious. FML
Boozy wake
Today, it was my stepdad's funeral. Everything was great, until people got drunk, kicked off, and the police got called. FML
Today, I had to break up a fistfight between my wife and mother. Apparently, my mom heard that I finally got the great paying job of my dreams, and told my wife I'd finally kick her "useless ass to the curb." We have to spend the holidays together. FML
Today, my parents and I attended the funeral of my husband's mother. It was open-casket, and my parents went to take a look. My mum muttered, "With a dress that tacky, no wonder she died", and my dad chuckled. A fight quickly erupted, and the police were called. FML
Today, I got a black eye while trying to break up a fight caused by some complete bastard making a "yo momma" joke at the funeral of my best friend's mother. FML

I'm sorry for your loss OP, my condolences to you and yours. It'll get easier as time goes. I promise.

12 - I don't think it gets easier. OP - The loss of a loved one, especially a mom, makes people behave in a way that is almost all too expected. The day my mom died my oldest sister went out and got wasted, which is a typical way for her to self medicate/"cope." Nothing and everything changes. I'm sure they'll see the error of their ways eventually. Hugs and love, OP.

Why must everyone be sad at funerals. I mean if I'm going to die why do I have to ruin everyone's day? I hope this happens at my funeral.

33 - Yes, because I'm sure a fight perked things up wonderfully and cheered everyone (end sarcasm). My family doesn't do "sad" funerals either, but I don't care who you are, a fight is never appropriate at a funeral unless the one being remembered was an MMA fighter or something.

Funeral and weddings, bring out all types. Family fun for everyone.

There really ain't nothin like a fight to brighten the mood in any situation.

This is by far the most immature, stupid, inane, and most of all disrespectful thing I've ever heard or read. If I were there not just the cops but an ambulance and paramedic would be called to take the 2 brother to the hospital after I was done teaching them.

39 We don't do sad funerals either. We try to celebrate their life. I'm very sorry for your loss OP. I hope that you have many memories to help get you through the hardest of times.

1, the immaturity shown between these brothers, during their own mother's funeral, is nearly too hard to believe! There is a time and a place for every discussion. Years from now, the brothers will be drinking their sorrows away due to the fact that they were complete assholes and showed no respect at their mother's funeral. At least, that's what I suspect and it doesn't seem far fetched.

Not getting anally raped by a prisoner named Bubba? Those brothers will get their priorities straight real quick.. No pun intended.
FlamingTacos 7
I think they already know what's important...
Clioo_fml 17
Maybe that was their way of coping with it: not coping with it at all...I don't know why I'm defending these guys, but some people are just weird.

I'd talk to a lawyer and see you get all of the money instead of them
unknown_user5566 27
That would make OP just as immature and selfish as her brothers.
enormouselephant 15
I would say she's more worried about her mothers' death now then money.

Sorry *than the

The kids generally don't get the money if the dad is still alive, so hopefully none of them will be getting it yet. The brothers are disgustingly rude and I'm sorry but you don't call the cops on your siblings ._. it's called "Hey uncle, uncle, nephew, nephew and myself, lets all break it up ourselves"
laden_swallow09 35
Family doesn't mean spit when there's fisticuffs involved. If my brother came home drunk out of his mind and starts shouting nonsense and starts punching a car, there's gonna be blue lights flashing soon.

31, there is this thing called being a single parent. Not everyone has a dad. Plus, statistics say that men usually die first.

Wow I'm very sorry OP. At least you were responsible and mature enough to show proper appreciation.

Why the hell would people say u deserve that? Really so dumb!!!

Some people hit it by accident on Mobil
ExplodingToaster 6
Hitting it on accident, trolls, people who somehow thought OP deserved it. I know I've accidentally hit the YDI or the FYL button when I meant to hit the opposite.
WritingWrongs 8
I don't know... Some people are assholes. Hitting ydi for some stupid fml is one thing, but on one as painful as this? Obviously the people hitting that button are incapable of understanding the emotional turmoil a person has to go through sooner or later in life. A real human wouldn't even joke about that.

Don't understimatw lack of empathy, least of all in the Internet.

Sports are supposed to be for entertainment and fun, it saddens me to see when they are put above family. :( My condolences, OP.

That's horrible!

Oh the shame! Unless mommy's used to this kind of thing then she'll sit back watching with a bowl of popcorn in heaven.

You should disown them. You can't possibly be related, anyway.

Please tell me your brothers are under the age of ten.

I usually wouldn't call cops on two 10 year olds fighting, but hey...whatever floats your boat
SystemofaBlink41 27
15- jesus even at age ten i had the common sense that a funeral was no place for this kind of behaviour... More like 5....
