Today, I posted a video of a dance I choreographed on Facebook. I got a notification a few hours later telling me that my grandpa had also shared it. His caption? "My granddaughter dances like a gay baboon and this dance sucks balls. Throw grapes at her." Thanks grandpa. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I witnessed my drunk grandmother attempting the Single Ladies dance, complete with hip gyrations and ass slapping. FML
Today, I finally accepted my grandma's friend request on Facebook. I commented on a family photo album she'd uploaded, joking that the quality would greatly improve once she added pictures of me. My comment was met with, "Shut up you sewage rat". FML
Today, after my sister's wedding, a bunch of people were dancing. I noticed my grandma sitting alone and looking sad. My grandpa died last month, so feeling bad for her, I asked if she'd like to dance with me. She seemed a lot happier, until I accidentally caused her to fall and break her arm. FML
Today, I uploaded a photo of myself at the beach on Facebook. The first comment it got was "Wow!! If I was 20 yrs younger, oh boy ;)". Yeah, thanks for that, grandpa. FML
Today, my grandpa accidentally posted a nude photo of himself on Facebook. I will never be able to unsee that. FML
Today, my grandma commented on my Facebook profile picture: "That's a great photo! It doesn't look anything like you!" FML
Today, I updated my Facebook status to, "Party at my house this Friday. Like my status if you want to come." After about 3 hours I checked back to discover that the only person who'd liked my status was my grandma. FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's extended family. His grandpa was apparently senile, as he kept calling me "Tilly" and asking me to dance. His relatives thought this hilarious and busted out the video camera. Later, I learned his grandpa is not senile at all - the family was playing a joke on me. FML
Today, some idiot introduced my grandmother to yoga pants. FML
Today, I was on a video call with my grandmother, trying to teach her how to use Facebook. I patiently explained the difference between posting a status and sending a private message. Five minutes later, I saw her new status: “I love you, honey. Thanks for being so patient with me. By the way, I still don’t understand this shit.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If you made a Harlem shake video, he took it easy on you.

Well, now you know what to call the first Broadway show you do. The Gay Baboon.

Just delete the comment and tell your grandma to straighten him out.

How can she delete his comment that he posted on his wall?
lilhellian 27
You can report this stuff and get it delete.. Or next time op is at his house, op can get on his computer and try to access the account..

Or just stop dancing.... Older folks tend to be more honest, so he's probably right on the money.

#49- Who are you kidding? Old folk are the worst, because they're retired and, therefore, have plenty of time to plan out their shenanigans! They've lived, so they know every trick in the book, those sneaky bastards.

I'm already afraid thinking about it.

Well at least he didn't say a straight baboon. Those animals have no sense of rhythm at all.

Talk about being brutally honest. Sorry to hear OP! I'm sure your dance was nice!
Damian95 16
Honesty is not always the best policy. Especially with women. "Do I look fat?" "Of course not."
ekb777 13
Idk, I would like to know if I look fat in something to avoid going out in public like that. That being said, there are nice ways to say it. A comment like "Your rolls are showing" would put you six feet under

I'm sure a lot of men want to marry you.

"Do these pants make me look fat?" "No, your ass makes those pants look fat."

But is it worth wasting some perfectly good grapes? I thought that this was what the whole FML was about.
HowieDoIt 21
If you saw a gay baboon doing the Harlem shake on facebook, tell me you wouldn't be willing to throw a few grapes.
s0m3guy2010 21
I don't believe in the cruelty of plant life. Therefore, I have chosen to be a "photosynthetarian."
HowieDoIt 21
That's a perfectly vine choice, I commend you for your efforts. You'll get no sour feelings from me.

Grandparents, they say the darnedest things.
Pleonasm 36
I'm wondering what you did to your ass to be compared to a baboon... And apparently Grandpa doesn't know not to feed the animals.
gracehi 33
At least "you" didn't call your mother a ****.
sotheresthisgirl 8
What does calling your own mother a **** have ANYTHING to do with this FML?
Rynk95 11
It's a reference to another FML.
gracehi 33
Thank you, 41.

Throw grapes at your grandpa.

Only the gay baboons dance? Anyway OP, maybe adjust your privacy settings so he can't see your future posts.
