Today, it was our 5th anniversary, so I decided to play a little joke on my girlfriend. Before I gave her the real present, an engagement ring, I gave her a gift-wrapped rolling pin instead. I ended up in the hospital. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend, only for her to slap me, throwing the "fake ring" away and storming off, convinced it was a cruel joke. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 4 years. I took the whole day to cook a nice meal, and stuck the ring in a cookie that I was going to give to her. In the middle of the dinner I was holding the cookie under the table, about to give it to her. My dog ate it. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend with a ring from Kay Jewelers. She saw the box, started giggling, whispered, "'Kay", and then started laughing so hard at her joke she had to excuse herself. FML
Today, my wife figured out I gave her a dollar store ring for our anniversary. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for dinner to a fancy Italian restaurant for our one year anniversary. After giving her some roses, freshly baked cookies, and a thoughtful poem I wrote for her, she started laughing and asked for her real gift. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. I had been hiding the ring in the sock drawer. When I went to retrieve it, the ring was gone and in its place was a sticky note that said "NO." FML
Today, my girlfriend decided it would be hilarious if she pulled a prank on me, so she did the classic "bucket of water on a door" one. I ended up getting stitches and a concussion on my birthday. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me the present she'd bought for me. I said, joking, "I hope it's not a tie!" It was a tie. FML
Today, as a 1 year anniversary present, my boyfriend let me see and wear my engagement ring. He then made me give it back at the end of the day. FML
Today, I planned to propose to my girlfriend in front of her family at dinner. I had the ring ready and got down on one knee. She immediately burst into laughter and said, "Are you kidding?" The family stared in silence, and I quickly realised she was just teasing me... until I stood up and knocked over an entire table of drinks. FML

It seems like after five years, she'd know you well enough to recognize that it was a gag gift. Unless you've just told her to get back in the kitchen one too many times and she finally snapped...

Let me guess, she made you shove it up your ass.

Definitely a You Deserve It. The nerve.

Well, IMHO you deserve it - while she had no right to clock you - you deserved it - she waits 5 years for the big moment and you reduce it to a bad joke. I hope she first slammed your balls then shoved the pin up your ass. How would you have liked it if the first time you got into her pants - something I am sure you were waiting for and excited about - and she showed you what you thought was her hot little box - then suddenly revealed her hairy dick - how pissed would you have been - wise up a-hole!

Read the FML, tard... HE WAS GOING TO GIVE HER THE RING AS HER REAL PRESENT AFTER. And no, because his girlfriend has no sense of humor and poor impulse control does not mean he deserves to have his balls slammed and the pin up his ass. If this is how you feel, please stay single.

I have no sense of humor but I can take a joke but OP this was a bad joke. I say FYL because no one deserves to go as far as to the hospital for a joke but I also say YDI because jokes go too far sometimes

I think that's cause for a free "any way you want it" card. P.S. you should have put the ring on one of the handles so she gets the joke before flipping out.

I hope her fingers aren't that big O.O

If this happened to me, I would not hit my BF with the rolling pin enough to hospitalize him. Why? Because I love him and don't want to see him hurt. Plus, I would just laugh it off and tell him no, I will not be using that. Get a woman who cares about you, OP. Save the ring for her.

What the ****? Clearly not the person you want to be going out with.

Apparently, she doesn't have a very good sense of humor

Or maybe the joke was offensive and sexist instead of funny.

Im on the fence here.... On one side i see the humor and how you where trying to make it a memorable proposal, on the other side a woman needs to choose to go into the kitchen and make me a sandwich or else... *whispers* the Lady Mafia *hides*

I'd be like "l-o-l. Best present evar." It was a cute idea that backfired, I'm not gonna call her a bitch, because you obviously love her, but putting you in the hospital was really douchey.
