Today, I overheard my mum tell my sister that she should make me a bridesmaid at her wedding. My sister scoffed, "She looks like Shamu, mum. I can't have THAT in my wedding pics." followed by laughter and my mum saying, "Touché." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my sister told me she didn’t want me in her wedding pictures because I looked fat in my bridesmaid's dress. FML
Today, I’m supposed to be a bridesmaid at my sister's wedding, but she doesn’t want me in the photos because I’m over a foot taller than her and the other bridesmaids, and it will look silly in the photos. I told her I won’t even bother attending, and mom actually took her side. FML
Today, my sister backed out of my wedding because it was becoming too much about me. After I begged her to reconsider, I had no choice but to pick a new bridesmaid. When my new bridesmaid posted on Facebook how excited she was, my sister commented, "See, you made HER feel special." FML
Today, my best friend informed me that I could not be her maid of honour because I "wasn't as pretty as the other bridesmaids" and she wanted her wedding photos to have "consistency". FML
Today, I was having lunch with my sister and my mother. While my mom was busy ordering food, my sister said to me, "Look at this!" then contorted her face so that she had a double chin. My mother looked over and said to her, "Stop making fun of your sister!" FML
Today, my best friend told me that I wasn't invited to her wedding, saying that I was too pretty and that I would outshine her at the ceremony. I laughed and said that she was being ridiculous. She eventually confessed the real reason why I wasn't invited: apparently I'm an annoying bitch. FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend's future sister-in-law ask him not to bring me to the wedding. Apparently, me being so much shorter than everyone else is "embarrassing" and "would make the pictures look weird." FML
Today, my sister looked prettier in her bridesmaid's dress than I did in my wedding dress. I love her to bits, but she won the genetic lottery out of the two of us, so even on my wedding day I feel inferior. FML
Today, my mother thought it would be a wonderful idea to make me late for me own wedding. It wouldn't be so bad if she hadn't focused solely on my sister because my wedding didn't center on her. The sister in question snubbed being my maid of honor over a year ago, and just decided to randomly show up. FML
Today, my mom took a picture of me. All she could say about the picture was, "At least your sister is pretty." FML

I'd rather not be in a wedding for anyone like that anyway...family or not.

Well, tell her no one wants to see a bitch in the pictures either.

Try not to take it too heavily. Families can be jerks sometimes. Chin up!

I say we all get together and kick some ass. Or at least give them a stern talking to.

I feel like FML commenters would make a great army. "That bitch! Punch her!" "Break her knees!"

That's pretty heartless. Trip her as she's walking down the aisle.

On the bright side, your mom said "Touché." Much better than "Whale Ho" or "Thar she blows!" Either of those would be a Moby Dick move!

You're gonna have to have a talk with them both. How could you not be a bridesmaid at your own sisters wedding, especially for that shallow a reason?

@25 If OP is morbidly obese as her sister implied, being a bridesmaid might not be the best idea for her. Especially if all the other bridesmaids are slim, it could single OP and draw negative attention to her.

Calmly walk to the bathroom, piss in a cup, then return to the kitchen and dump it all over your sister's head. Then spit on your mother. You'll feel better.

well that escalated quickly

I don't think so. Refusing to have your own sister in you wedding because she's heavy is horrible and inexcusable. I wouldn't even do that to a friend, and that her mother agreed with it is even worse. If I was OP I'd just stop talking to the pair of them permanently. She doesn't need people like that in her life.
