Today, I was talking to my co-workers about how I've sadly been an orphan since an early age. One of them exclaimed, "Hey, just like Batman!" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, two guys proclaiming that they were both Batman attacked me on the street. FML
Today, I decided to be productive and work from a coffee shop. Just as I was about to talk to my boss on a video conference call, the barista shouted, "Latte for Batman!" FML
Today, my department found out that we're getting a new supervisor for the third time this month. I joked about how we're like "the foster kid nobody wants." One of my coworkers burst into tears and ran off. I later found out that she had been a foster child and never once had a stable home. FML
Today, at work, I casually mentioned I was meeting some friends for dinner. My co-worker's response was, "You have friends?!" FML
Today, while talking with a coworker, we discussed a weekend home invasion scenario. It was then that I realized my social circle is so non-existent, that my job would notice I'm gone before my friends would. FML
Today, I was talking to my good friend's girlfriend. She mentioned being afraid of losing her job. Because she was still a teenager, I jokingly said, "Oh, like you're responsible for a whole family!" She is. FML
Today, my boss told me he is a superhero. He has written countless comics about his crusades and adventures. I make fifty dollars an hour less than him. FML
Today, my mom, who is a huge Batman fan, is still weepy and talking non-stop about Kevin Conroy, as she has been for the past two weeks. After three days it was starting to get excessive; now I think I'm going mad like the Joker. FML
Today, I dressed up as Batman for a comic book convention. I was hit by a car on the way there by a man dressed up as the Joker for the same convention. FML
Today, I realised that I'm kinda living the life of a Disney princess, because I'm lonely and all my friends are animals. Yes, I also talk to them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

At least you got the manly spin on your orphanhood. They could have called you Little Orphan Annie and that's a nickname that sticks!

I would star singing tommorow if I knew someone with that nickname.

Perdix - Sounds like you know from personal experience. DawnShadow - I think you'd get beaten shitless if you did that more than once.

#92, well, yes, I do, but it's just because I have white irises and pupils. I freak the shit out of people.

I'm an orphan too, OP. Biological parents ditched me and my mommy (the beautiful sweet lady who adopted me) died from cancer when I was 15 and she was never married so I haven't got a mom or a dad anymore. We'll be ok though, OP. And if it helps, some kid I ride to school with told me that if I'm like the boxcar children.

So either the guy was a batman fan or you're one of those obnoxious people who tells the same depressing story multiple times to the point where nobody cares anymore. We all work with one of those people...
