Today, my 24-year-old brother tried to convince me that Hogwarts is real, because there is no way a person could have written that based on imagination. My parents agreed with him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my 9-year-old daughter was acting out and wouldn't do her homework. I told her that if she didn't study, she wouldn't get her acceptance letter from Hogwarts. She looked into my eyes, straight through to my soul and said, "Hogwarts isn't real, retard." FML
Today, my brother and I got in a fight and he told my friends that I am mentally disabled. They believed him. Apparently, "everything makes sense now." FML
Today, my 33-year-old brother told my 10-year-old daughter that clouds are made by factories blowing smoke. My daughter laughed at him and he got upset. He still believed my dad's lie from 25 years ago. FML
Today, I went to pick up my little brother from his friend's house. When I got there, he ran off screaming that he didn't know me. His friend's parents believed him. FML
Today, my brother and I had a long argument. He believes wholeheartedly that pineapples are not actually fruits, but berries. When I showed him a google search, he accused me of "faking" it. FML
Today, I discovered that you can't always assume your little brother is kidding when he says that you have a spider on top of your head. FML
Today, my brother decided to help me artificially age some of my artwork by singeing the edges slightly. Apparently "my brother set fire to my homework" isn't a valid excuse. FML
Today, my stepmom burned all my Harry Potter stuff. Apparently, Harry Potter is the "Devil’s plan to corrupt good Christian children" and "That shit is make believe anyway." What did my dad ever see in this evil witch? FML
Today, my older brother managed to convince my younger sister that she's actually a boy, and that she'll soon be getting a penis in the mail, which she excitedly told everyone she could. He convinced me of the exact same thing as well several years ago. FML
Today, my brother deleted all traces of the novel I've been working on for three years from my laptop. The reason? When I was born I "stole all of Mum and Dad's attention." He's 24. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Say to them, "Not sure if trolling, or just stupid."

Of course it's real! Did you know that that there is also a giant turtle named A'Tuin flying through space with four elephants on its back? And on the the back of those four elephants is a world in the shape of a disc, known as the Discworld?

Don't forget that the universe is frequently and repeatedly saved by an alien called the Doctor who flies around in a time machine disguised as a police box, as well as by a blonde woman in California who fights vampires. :D

Too far...

21 & 40... Are you guys on acid or some??

#21 was a Discworld ref, and I added a few more :) But yeah, probably a bit too far.

My sister thinks that too.

Are you kidding? How could you deny Hogwart's existence? It explains all of life's anomalies: -Crop circles -Alchemy -Unexplained missing cases -Why the chicken crossed the road -Why baseball's finals are called the "World Series" even though only the U.S. and Japan play. Oh yes, it's real. And you should trust your parents, too. There's no way a mother of two children would lie about this just to help her sons go to sleep.

Damn it.... I was actually just sending him an owl with an alliance letter...

Well, it could have been worse. He could have been convinced that the Cullens are real.

The Cullen's aren't real!! Crap there goes my chance with Edward!
GothicAngel17 24
Edward is a sparkly gay fairy with hairy nipples and bad hair. Plus, I'm pretty sure you'd be the wrong gender for him to be interested in if he were real.

Hogwarts is real, they put it in at Disney in Orlando.

The Wizarding Worl of Harry Potter is at Universal (or whatever it's called, I think that's right though).
