Today, my family and I went over to our new neighbors' house, to sing a carol and say hello. The only response we got was a door slammed in our faces. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a group of carolers was coming up my street, so I went out in the cold to wait for them. When they finally arrived, I waved and greeted them. They huddled up discussing something while pointing at me, then skipped my house. FML
Today, I met my new neighbors when they backed into my parked car. FML
Today, my new neighbors moved in across the street. Also today, they began to park at the end of my driveway. Not used to a car being there, I backed out and promptly hit it. Welcome to the neighborhood. FML
Today, I went over to my friend's house. Her 5 year-old son answered the door and when he saw me said, "Oh great, it's YOU!" and slammed the door in my face. FML
Today, I went caroling with some family friends. We got pelted with oranges. FML
Today, some new people moved into the house next door to mine. The previous occupants were very loud and obnoxious day in and day out, so I was looking forward to some sanity. When I went outside, I noticed they'd parked their cars on my lawn. FML
Today, I was singing while unloading my dishwasher. I heard a knock on the door and went to answer it only to find the police telling me they received noise complaints from my neighbors. I live next-door to my parents. FML
Today, my new neighbours came over to introduce themselves. I opened the door to see my ex-husband, with a horrified look on his face, and his girlfriend. FML
Today, I moved into my new house. I went over to my neighbors' house to introduce myself. As they opened the door I saw a telescope pointed at my house. FML
Today, I went to a nursing home to sing Christmas carols to the elderly. They threw their bananas at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well caroling is pretty annoying! Maybe they didn't like your harmonies.

No one wants to hear you sing, but they'll listen if you give them a couple beers and a pizza.

Maybe they're Jewish

Maybe they don't like morons coming to their door and screeching on in an attempt to sing Christmas songs that are barely withstandable done well and only at Christmas time Or maybe they don't have any figgy pudding and don't want to listen to people blabbering on about how they won't leave until they get some

This really gets me. If there was a Jewish tradition that involved going to other people's houses and singing I would be respectful of it and would probably enjoy it! I suspect it's less likely that they are Jewish, and more likely has to do with people being douchey. Celebrate Christmas or not - we can all show a little love at this (and every) time of year.

It doesn't have to do with love it has to do with carolers! They're ******* annoying and should be treated like Jehovah's witnesses and either set on fire (not a real suggestion, no one do this, I will not take the blame or the medical/funeral bills if you do), pelted with oranges, met with trolling statements, or else introduced abruptly to your door

At least jw's don't sing

Bizzare_ftw, I was really interested until you said "set them on fire", then that became crap. Now i'm a few seconds closer to death from reading that, thanks.

33, annoying as hell or not, they don't need to be treated like shit. It doesn't kill you to stand there, listen, smile, and wait for them to leave. Carolers are coming to your door wasting their own time to try to put a smile on your face. Have a little respect or self control. Just because you find someone annoying doesn't mean you need to be an ass.

Not in my experience, then again I'm usually the annoying one.... Still, that makes me pretty dang qualified for the statement & 84, I Did warn against the Actual act, you would know if you read on. I was actually going to get ride of the statement but then I found that more funny

33 - Wow someone's an angry person. Lol. They were only trying to be nice. The people could of at least said no thank you and gently closed the door. And as for your suggestion I don't think they deserved to be set on fire for trying to spread Christmas spirit. Wow!

Excuse me, who comes on FML looking to be serious? 99% of everything on here is in joke/sarcasm form, please update your radar for such, your software seems faulty and outdate, thank you *bows*

Talking about setting people on fire isn't a joke or sarcastic. So update your radar! Get a sense of humor, and learn how not to be a morbid j*ck*ss. I've seen your comments before and your just a sick cruel person that matches her ugly picture.

226- if you read my comments you will see I am agreeing with you about how it's NOT a joke or funny to talk about burning people. So how is that stupid? Isn't that what your saying? It's offensive which was my point. Anyway enough of this bad talk and crap - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone on FML. Be thankful for everything and everyone you have. Also learn to appreciate the little things and the beauty in this world. Then maybe this world will be a better place.

You know what though, I will say I'm sorry for the last part of my previous post. That was cruel and uncalled for so I apologize. I will admit when I'm wrong. Sorry again and Happy Holidays to you.

Why they would be Grinches? They JUST moved in, for God knows which reasons, might be atheists or of other religion or any other more logical reason.

I would do the same. I wouldn't want to let all te cold air into my house just to watch you sing songs that I can listen to on the radio.
