Today, I had to slowly explain to my daughter why her Facebook profile isn't a valid piece of ID. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I had to explain to my 18-year-old daughter why she can't pull a duck face pose for her driver's license. She still doesn't believe me. FML
Stolen valor
Today, I was on Facebook when I saw a picture a popular girl I don't talk to had posted of her fake ID. She had used my full name and identical signature. FML
Today, I found out that the man I met online was a fake Facebook account, made by my daughter and her friends. FML
Not the sharpest tool
Today, I took my 16 year-old daughter to get a bank account, taking her birth certificate with us as requested. When the teller wrote her name down on a piece of paper, my daughter said, "How do you know my name?" The teller just looked at her and held up her birth certificate. I raised a nitwit. FML
Today, I found out I have a daughter. How did I find out? She added me on Facebook. FML
SAT down
Today, my daughter was unable to take the SAT. They wouldn’t let her in, because, “no one told her she would need two forms of ID.” To be fair, she would have gotten a terrible score anyway, if she’s really that dumb. FML
Today, I've been calling my girlfriend by her nickname for so long, I had to reactivate my Facebook account to find her real name. FML
Today, I had to get out my birth certificate to prove to my dad that today is my birthday. This has happened before. FML
Today, my daughter, whom I consigned a credit card for, told me she was in a bit of financial trouble. It turns out that she was trying to pay off her credit card with the same credit card her bill was for, and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. FML
Today, I went to see a movie. While buying tickets, the girl behind the counter asked to show my ID card to proof I'm at least 16 years old. Not wanting to make a drama, I showed it. She took a look at it and declared it as fake. That ID is real and I'm 24. FML

Imagine the amount of girls that would have to pose with a duck face if a Facebook profile picture were authorized as an ID.

The first thing that popped into my head when I finished reading this was Generation Dead by Five Finger Death Punch

That's like saying that your FML account is a valid piece of ID.

Really? I've used mine and had it accepted at a variety of locations.

That must be bollocks. No self respecting nightclub, off licence, movie theatre, bar, supermarket or trader/supplier of any age restricted products or services would accept facebook as ID. The loss of their licence and the fact they would be prosecuted would see to that.

Farmville doesn't count.

Maybe they were humoring her because they could see that she passes the age limit? I'm not saying she looks old, by the way.

Clearly not as a driver's license or anything government official, but with a little flirting most clubs and bars here in DC didn't seem to have a problem when I lost my real ID. I've also had retail stores accept it to use my credit card. I think they just don't care, honestly.

That's just ridiculous. If she's in her late teens, there is no help for her.

I cant help but wonder how old your daughter is. The only way this wouldn't make her unintelligent is if she was really young, but in that case she shouldn't have a Facebook

Actually this is not true. Several of my friends younger siblings have Facebook accounts and they are about 11-12.

Yeah but if she is old enough to get valid identification then she is probably 16-20 years of age. In which case she is a complete idiot. Hope that apple didn't come from your tree OP.

11-12 is still kinda a young and pointless for a Facebook. And yah, she probably is older but perhaps she was just wondering about it? Who knows?
