Today, I rushed home to tell my parents my girlfriend had accepted my proposal. They asked how I could be so selfish at a time like this. Apparently, Michael Jackson's death is more important than their son. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me during a funeral. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed. I was about to call my parents and tell them we're getting married, but they called me first to announce they're getting a divorce. FML
Today, I happily told my parents that my boyfriend proposed to me last night. My dad's response? "Marry that goofy bastard and you're out of the will." FML
Today, I was informed by my parents that their relationship with God is more important than their relationship with me. FML
Today, I discovered that my boyfriend was planning on proposing to me tomorrow. I found out after receiving a couple of a dozen texts from friends and relatives bitching me out for not telling them. Apparently, my dad thought it would be appropriate to make the announcement for me on his Facebook page. FML
Today, my fiancé told me that his work is more important than our family. We have 2 kids. FML
Today, I called my mother to tell her that I got engaged. In the 15 minute conversation that followed, 13 were spent listening to how this is going to affect her. FML
Today, while at my brother's funeral, my girlfriend decided to tell me she'd been sleeping with him. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news. When I excused myself to the restroom, I overheard his mom say, "I thought you were going to break up with that stupid slut?" Welcome to the family. FML
Today, my parents asked me if my girlfriend of two years and I wanted to go see a musical with them. I haven't told them that she broke up with me the day after she met them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Am I the only one who kinda thought this was fake? But anyway, FYL, man. Regardless of who dies, your parents should be happy for you and your fiance. Congratulations, I hope you live many years together in happiness. =)

While your life is f*cked, May I be one to say R.I.P. MJ we will miss you OP: its too bad that your family likes MJ more than you. I really hope you don't judge them for that. maybe they got carried away?

Either your family really has a reason to hate you or your parents are huge douchebags. I am leaning towards it being your parents fault. If my parents reacted to my proposal that way because a celebrity had just died I would punch both of them in the face

YDI for proposing to your girlfriend. If women think they're so great, then they should be the ones doing the proposing, not men.

I'm not a Michael Jackson fan, I don't even like him, but I can see where your parents are coming from if they were a big fan of his. His death was unexpected, and he was someone that really changed the music industry. The only singer that comes close to him is Elvis. Your parents obviously didn't know him personally, but people don't have to know someone to feel a connection to them on some level. Just look at all the screaming people at concerts with the "I love you" signs. The most recent person before him that caused such a stir around the world that I can think of is Princess Diana (Heath Ledger aside; he had some good movies but wasn't on the same level as these two). Yesterday was your parents day to "mourn", they were caught up in the whole "we've lost someone great today" mood hanging over people and didn't want it disturbed with good news, it didn't fit in with the day. Congratulations on the proposal, but you did pick a kind of broody day to do it on. I'm imagine your parents will be happy about it later... it was wrong of them to say that to you, even if it was what they were thinking.

Even if you don't like Michael Jacksons singing you can't deny that he had the most bitchin moves this worlds ever seen. plus he is innocent. definitely not a molester. so shut the **** up all you hater bitches.
