Today, I introduced my boyfriend to my parents. My dad looked at him and said, "Nice outfit, but it's a little late for Halloween." Before I could intervene, my boyfriend said that joke had been done to death, to which my dad retorted, "Yeah, so has your mum." Instant fistfight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I introduced my dad to my boyfriend. I gave my dad the middle finger and he thumped me on the head, as we've been playfully doing for years. My boyfriend got all mad and tried to fight my dad. FML
Today, I was introducing my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. I meant to say, "Mom, Dad, this is Tom." Instead, I said, "Mom, Dad, this is Mom." My boyfriend is now jokingly reconsidering our relationship, and my parents won't stop making fun of me. FML
Today, I introduced my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. My dad took one look at him, sighed and said, "You deserve someone better. Someone who is responsible, and has their priorities straight in life." Beyond upset, I told my dad that I love him. My dad disgruntledly responded, "I was talking to him." FML
Today, I brought my boyfriend of a year and a half to meet my parents. Turns out he dated my mom. This should be a fun dinner. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to meet my parents. My dad thought it'd be hilarious to act surprised and ask me if I'd already dumped the girlfriend I introduced him to yesterday. She slapped me and stormed out of the house before my dad could tell her it was a joke. FML
Today, my boyfriend met my parents. Within minutes, my dad managed to verbally sever his balls and reduce him to tears, "just for fun" apparently. FML
Today, I introduced my new boyfriend to my parents. Everyone knows he's into the emo scene, but this didn't stop my dad from slowly looking him up and down, then saying, completely deadpan, "You never told us you were a lesbian, honey." FML
Today, my boyfriend met my dad for the first time. The first thing he said to him was, "You're an idiot for dating my daughter." FML
Today, I decided to dress up a little to go out to the bar. I put on a nice shirt, some leggings, and heels. When I walked out the door, my dad said that I looked like a whore. When I got to my boyfriend's house I told him what my dad had said and he replied, "I'd have to agree with him." FML
Today, my parents met my boyfriend, and to say it went badly is an understatement. My mom went outside to relax by chain smoking and the shouting, and the screaming only ended when my dad took my boyfriend by the scruff of the neck and threw him out the front door into the street. FML

If I was the boyfriend, I'd have said "touché" and went on with it. Mom jokes aren't even worth fighting over anymore.

Haha I did not look at where he was from. My bad. Needless to say, you don't have to be so rude about it...

Im irish and i don't know whether i find your lack of dinstinction between the irish and the british funny or offensive

People from northern Ireland are part of the United Kingdom (Britain), unlike southern Ireland which is only Irish. Get your facts right, people!!
kriz_allizwell 6
Talk about fighting Irish
hansbo 6
Not even northern Ireland is part of Great Britain. GB is one island, Ireland another. Northern Ireland is, however, a part of the United Kingdoms.

Look at OP's username it's obvious there have been other problems.

Old Man strength always wins.

Old Man + Dating Daughter = Shotgun on premises.

It's funny because you think I'm wrong. a 45 year old man will beat a a 18 year old kid 9 times out of 10.

^Game. Set. Match.
llama612 27
To 54- I think that's a pretty wild claim. It really all depends on each person fighting, I've seen a 16 year old kid beat a 35 yr old and I've also seen someone in there late fifties beat a guy in his early twenties. It just all depends on the person fighting and why they're fighting and also how they skilled they are at fighting. An 18 year old black belt will more than likely beat a 45 year old guy with no fight training whatsoever. So yeah 9 times out of ten very unlikely.

MsMourningStar 22
A boy should always defend his Momma, boyfriend did the right thing. If he defends his mom it means he'll defend his wife too. Hold on to this one if your dad didn't scare him off.

56- nice logic there. Everybody is different and some people can take a joke depending on the situation.
ComTlancy 12
Yeah but.....it's Ireland. What do you expect?
llama612 27
Yeah mum jokes aren't worth fighting over when it's with people you know, but when it's a pretty much complete stranger you're meeting for the first time it can be pretty insulting and very rude. So I don't blame the bf for getting into a fight about it, OPs dad was wayyyy out of line.
onlychildFTW 34
Were they ever worth fighting over? I always thought they meant nothing all the time. They aren't even insults, just over used cliché
benhd1 14
Well you aren't Irish...

For some of us there is a reason why "yo mama" jokes are cause for a fight. Whenever anybody insults my memories of my mother I either make them feel like a total asshole or give them hell.
scotch3 6
I don't tolerate any sort of negative comments towards my mother in any way. I would have fought the man too. Major respect for that girls boyfriend.

173 - Speaking as an Irishman, I'm reasonably confident that Limerick is not in Northern Ireland.

People from Limerick don't **** around. When they're not writing poems of course.

Eh, it's better than Hooker Hole, Louisiana. You don't want to know what happens at night there.

Hey I grew up in Hooker Hole, Louisianna! In the Sphincter neighborhood! Are you a fellow Sphinctonite?

What an idiot. Hope the boyfriend won.
AKGirlinSD 20
Agreed! What a shitty thing to say about anyone's mother. It's crazy the dad was so immature about it.
AKGirlinSD 20
And by agreeing about the boyfriend winning, I hope he was able to get the dad to chill out. Nothing good every comes out of fist fights.
LolFMLnot 10
Your dad is an asshole, I feel bad for your boyfriend. I'd be pissed too
desoto96 9
Eh, for all we know the boyfriend could be a complete chump. So don't assume things, you'll make an ass out u and me.
Whytetrash 21
41, her dad should have known better than to be a smartass. He's a fully grown man. The boyfriend was just retaliating to what was said.
Whytetrash 21
Sorry, 21

Your dad's a jerk, but at least he's a really witty jerk.

I wonder what the OP's boyfriend was wearing? :O
doodlecloud 27
I figured he was just a bit emo/scene/goth/heavy metal or whatever they have evolved into now...or possibly anime fan or a furry?
lilmisslovely13 15
That's what i was wondering. Maybe hes goth or something like that.
