Today, I missed a call from my mom. It's my birthday, and glad she remembered, I called back to thank her. She was surprised when I brought up going out for dinner, and asked me what the occasion was. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it's my birthday. I called my mom to thank her for the gift she'd sent. She was surprised and said, "Oh I thought you were waiting to open it." She ended the conversation with, "OK, I'll call you on your birthday." FML
Today, I've been so stressed out that I forgot my own birthday. I only remembered when my mom talked to me to let me know she wasn't planning on doing anything for it. FML
Today, I called my mom to let her know I was coming home for my upcoming birthday, as I haven’t seen my parents in months. She then stated she hated my birthday because it reminded her she was getting older, and they may have preexisting plans that evening anyways. Really feeling the family love… FML
Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I was at a job interview when my phone started ringing. It was my mom, so I quickly hit "Ignore", which was probably for the best since she was obviously drunk. She left a voicemail in which she sang "Happy Birthday" to me. It's not my birthday. FML
Today, I called my dad asking him to wish me a happy birthday. Yay. FML
Today, I knew my mom wanted to go out to dinner with me and my sisters, and I couldn't remember why, so I called her and said, "Why are we going out to dinner?" and she goes, "Well, we always have." I forgot today's the anniversary of my stepdad dying. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I went downstairs expecting birthday greetings from my parents. Instead, they just sat on the couch saying nothing. Thinking they forgot, I casually reminded them. My mom scoffed and said, "Go do the dishes." FML
Today, I noticed that my mom had left the house without her cell phone. I called her phone to let her know she forgot it. FML
Today, I finally had a phone call after a week of nothing. It was my mother. It was by accident. FML

I remember pushing a watermelon out my urethra. It was glorious. I'm sad that he is seedless so I will never know what it will be like to be a grandfather

-78 Damn I was so sure calling someone a crack ***** was offensive.. I guess I just don't know that much.

No offense, but the whole "my parents forgot my birthday" isn't interesting anymore. It sucks that people's parents forget, and it's very rude of them to do, but it seems that people post it on her like every day.

Your mom sucks.

A mother's love... She raises you fine, then sets you off into the world and forgets your existence.
pink_raindrops 26
If she forgot about her daughters existance she never would have called to begin with. I don't understand why it's such a big deal that she didn't remember. For all we know the OP's mother has been too busy dealing with hassles life throws at you.
