Today, I had to go down to the county police department to bail out my kids who thought it would be a good idea to try mugging an ice cream truck driver. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was teaching my 4 year-old daughter about "stranger danger" and how to deal with it. Later that day, we went out and since I didn't buy her a ice cream, she kept screaming "STRANGER DANGER!" A total stranger tackled me until the cops arrived. FML
Today, I heard the ice cream truck. Being the idiot that I am, I ran down the steps and almost immediately fell down them. I needed four stitches. I didn't even get my ice cream. FML
Today, I had to go to the police station to pick up my 42 year-old dad. Why? He was caught stealing candy. FML
Today, I thought it was about time to learn to ride a bike as an adult. I wobbled down the street, lost my balance, and crashed into a parked ice cream truck. The owner yelled at me, and I was left with a bruised ego and no ice cream. FML
Today, I was having a rough day and decided to go out for a walk at 1 a.m. to clear my head. I ended up being driven home by two cops, who thought I was prostituting myself at the truck stop. When we arrived, they had a nice conversation with my parents. FML
Today, my daughter asked for a dollar to buy ice cream from the ice cream truck while I was on my computer working. Out of my wallet she took a fifty dollar bill. The ice cream man got a big tip before driving off. FML
Today, I had to go to the police station after my son got arrested for shoplifting 15 packs of gum. He got away with it at first, but got busted when he tried to return it all because he "didn't like the flavor". FML
Today, I got pulled over and ticketed while taking cookies to the local police station. FML
Today, as I was walking home, three burly men suddenly began to approach me. Thinking they were going to mug me, I reached for my pocketknife and said, "Stay away, I have a knife." Turns out they just wanted directions to an ice cream shop for their daughters, who were now bawling their eyes out. FML
Today, I volunteered to go get ice cream if I could use my mother's car. She told me to be VERY careful. Not ten minutes later, I hit a deer, which got up and walked off as though nothing had happened. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

They have obviously spent too much time watching Skillrex's Bangarang video clip.

Who the hell would mess with an ice-cream truck driver.

You're a failure as a parent... YDI.

Actually, the parent might not be at fault. The kids could have played Grand theft auto at their freinds house and picked it up there. That, or they were broke and were really desperate for ice cream.

That, and my generation is just stupid.

The replies on this comment are cancer. First of all, every generation had kids doing something as stupid, if it weren't for FML, you wouldn't have known that this had happened. As for the GTA comment, whose to say that they played GTA when they decided to do this? If they did, it really doesn't matter how they were able to play it, because if a kid is old enough to attempt to mug an ice cream truck, then they should be old enough to understand that GTA is just a video game, and that would be the parents fault for not teaching them the difference between fiction and reality. Hell, it's clearly some terrible parenting if she raised kids who thought it would be a good idea to mug an ice cream truck. We're not all angels and we do get in trouble, but kids attempting to mug an ice cream truck is way beyond typical bratty behavior, and it takes some pretty awful parenting to have a kid think that's a good idea.

Why would you rob something that can move like at least 10 times faster than you? I swear, at least banks stand still.
