Today, I was pouring boiling water into a cup, and I accidentally spilled it all over my hand. My mother responded by slapping me for getting water everywhere. My hand is scorched red, but thanks, I love you too, mother. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom was in the kitchen when her shirt caught on fire. Acting quickly, I poured my glass of water on her. Instead of thanking me, she yelled at me for making a mess. FML
Today, I accidentally touched a hot pan and, like any normal person would, jerked my hand back. My mom saw, yelled at me for being a "prissy princess" and then proceeded to stick her whole hand on the hot pan for a full 5 seconds. FML
Today, while cooking, I managed to burn my finger. I quickly turned the tap on and ran my finger under cold water, but apparently someone had just used the hot tap, because boiling water flooded out onto my nicely scalded finger. FML
Today, my mom tried to burn my arm with a hot spatula, all because I got a tattoo against her wishes. FML
Today, I got burned, all because the toaster scared me while I was holding a pot of boiling water. FML
Today, I burned myself while cooking, so I asked my mom to get the burn cream while I waited in the kitchen. While I was waiting, I absentmindedly set my hand on the hot stove, earning myself a second burn. FML
Today, I spilt a very hot cup of tea all over a burn I got yesterday from spilling a very hot cup of tea. FML
Today, I was cleaning a pan. I turned the water on, and it was super hot. My reaction was to slam my hand down. On a knife. So, not only do I have a burned hand, but there's also a huge cut on it from the knife. FML
Today, my girlfriend threw boiling water at me to get me off my phone. It worked, but now I'm burned. FML
Today, my mother called me urgently from the kitchen. Thinking she was hurt, I ran to her as fast as possible. She threw a wet cloth at my head and ran away, laughing her face off. FML

She should apologize for her "heated" attitude.

Sounds like Ireland is a bad place.

while shes sleeping, get a bowl of boiling water and put her hand in it while she is sleeping so she will feel your pain and piss herself

Anybody else think #16 is going a little far with that?

This sounds like something my mom would do. She once flogged me across my back for forgetting a homework assignment. I was 7 at the time...

#34 while it looks nice, there are a lot of interesting aspects. I dated an Irish boy fresh of the boat and hung out with 15 of his friends who came with him. Let's just say every country has their issues and have different ways of living. The country is beautiful but I've heard my far share of stories.

16, you've replied to the first comment on a few FMLs and they're all downvoted. I live in Ireland and my mum would give out if I spilled, then ask am I ok.

@ 16 Why do you always involve Ireland in everything?

Yeah I don't see how her mom went off like that. It's just water, get a damn mop! Then to not be concerned about her daughter's hand?! Yeah baby girl needs to move.

really? I'm pretty sure that was child abuse, but what do I know? I'm just a 14 year old boy who doesn't know whether or not he's manipulating people half the time

Stop spillin water on her marble floors!

I don't get why this is getting down voted. One time I was cutting up carrots and cut my finger. My mom got mad because the carrots were bloody and unusable. Maybe this mom is like mine..just has her priorities a little jumbled.

I don't see why people get so mad about spilled water. It's easy to clean, won't leave ungodly stains unless you leave it there, and is fairly easy to replace.... Well.... Good luck with your mom, OP.

Dipshit!!

Thank you 55 for understanding, I wasn't saying that it's right, but I was just implying in a more of a sarcastic way that she probably just gets mad over her stuff!

Your mom sounds a little simmered. Perhaps you should give her some space, before she boils over.

What?! Are you calling OP's mom a teapot? I suppose you'll call her short and stout, or even suggest we tip her over and pour her out?
Folly_fml 12
Don't be ridiculous, this isn't over till the fat lady sings!

ff-f-ffaaaaLAAAALAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Your mom needs to watch her hot temper before it boils over again. Otherwise things may get heated between you two.

At least your cheek matches the wonderful shade of red on your hand.
