Today, I had to explain to my 22-year-old boyfriend that mice do not grow up to be rats. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
No more clicks for you
Today, after I'd saved a baby mouse and was filming a YouTube series of me taking care of it, my boyfriend told me he found a “rat” in the kitchen, but not to worry he killed it and fed it to the cat. He killed my baby mouse, and now he’s mad I didn’t praise him for his brilliant extermination job. FML
Pests
Today, I had mice in the house and had to kill them with mousetraps. I pulled a trap out with a dead mouse and my four year-old son saw. Mice are his favorite animals, and now he won’t speak to me. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend that miles are the same distance for everything. He thought that human miles were different than mouse miles, because they're smaller. He's 34. FML
Sorry Mr Nibbles
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house, meeting his family for the first time. We were all standing in the kitchen when suddenly a small white and brown mouse ran by. Out of natural instinct, I stomped on it. Turns out, it was his little sister's pet mouse that had gotten out of its cage earlier. FML
Usually a bad omen
Today, my boyfriend finally moved in with me, after being long distance for months. Our apartment just became infested with mice. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend, who is a fully-grown man, that making dinosaur noises in public is no longer acceptable. FML
Today, my pet mouse demonstrated that he has bigger balls than my boyfriend, by running across the dinner table and eating off his plate, all while he jumped out of his chair, screaming like a girl. FML
Today, my pet rat had babies. We've only ever owned one rat. FML
Today, I called the landlord about the mouse I keep seeing in my kitchen. He wasted no time accusing me of keeping it as a pet, and went off on me about his "No Pets" policy. FML
Today, I had to explain to my husband that it's biologically impossible for cats and dogs to cross-breed, and that his "brilliant idea" of getting ours to mate is just plain disturbing. He still doesn't believe me. FML

Does that mean that ducks don't grow up into geese and cats into lions? My whole world has been thrown off kilter!

I thought squirrels were the ones who became gods.

Your boyfriend must be REALLY cute if you're able to tolerate such a blatant lack of common sense. That would drive me insane.
Silent_Thrill 17
Tolerate? It sounds like you'd dump the guy or beat him if he didn't know something that you thought to be common sense. I'm not saying you would, but that it sounds like you would.
unknown_user5566 27
I definitely wouldn't be abusive, but I probably just wouldn't be with someone who had a *blatant* lack of common sense. Obviously I know that no one is perfect and that it's impossible for an individual to know everything, but something like this would definitely bug me.

******* bitchy girls. Watch this get thumbs downed. Or moderated.

Who says they can't!? Don't be putting mice down, OP. If they wanna grow up to be rats, bats, or cuddly little cats, they can!! Dream killer...

Sadly, my 22yo son's girlfriend recently asked him if all mice grow into rats after he told her that one of my pet rats was the size of a mouse when we got him. It's no worse though than the 18yo who refused to continue eating the eggs we sold her parents, because ours came out of chickens' bums and not from the factory where she assumed the supermarket obtained their supplies.

I've had a similar experiance, but it was a 40 year old guy. I also know someone who stopped drinking cow milk because someone told her it was breastmilk

Omg I just thought of the most racist thing ever. I mustn't post such blasphemy, but It needs to be said. Anyone wanna say it and get banned?
Silent_Thrill 17
Thinking racist thoughts doesn't make you a bad person. REALLY wanting to say them does! I really hope this doesn't start another unnecessary FML argument! Annnnnnnnd....... GO!

But what if a mouse goes outside does it become a rat, and if a rat is in the house, is it a mouse?
