A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I overheard my mother Skyping with her new "boyfriend" about the $1,000 she just sent him. She barely knew what internet dating was three weeks ago. FML

Thanks but no thanks
Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML

Today, my neighbours' whiny emo of a daughter got dumped by her boyfriend. In her infinite wisdom, she's chosen to cope by playing on her recorder the worst rendition of "My Heart Will Go On" that I've ever heard. It's been going on all day. Now I know why he dumped this idiot. FML

Today, my mom called me to tell me she'd got in touch with my ex for his birthday, and that the two of them had made a plan for us to get back together. My new boyfriend was in the process of proposing to me. FML

Today, after we got home from the doctor's office, my mom checked the voicemail. Loud and clear, we both heard my boyfriend's break-up message. My parents had already forbidden me from dating. FML

Today, I told my mom that I want to try out for a singing competition on TV, so I might be able to kick off my musical career. She convinced me to sing a song for her, so I did. Mid-way through, she lost it, burst into laughter, and told me to stay in school. FML

Today, I told my mom about the rough time I'm having over my recent break-up, and how I can't help thinking about my ex every single day. Her attempt to console me involved saying, "Pft. I bet he doesn't think about you every day" and walking away. Thanks. FML

Today, my widowed mother told me she's been seeing a guy for the last 5 months. No problem. But now she insists on calling him, "New Daddy." I'm 37 and she lives across the street. FML

It's a lot better than getting wasted! Silver lining.

Play the Trollolo song and tell her to keep singing it. Everyone wins that way...

#1 I don't think it's coincidence that your display pic is Billy Ray Cyrus. Now I'm trying to figure out how to yodel "don't break my heart, my achy breaky heart".

Hey if it's helping her cope who are you to tell her not to? Invest in ear plugs if it's that bad.

Their poor neighbors

Maybe they can get the neighbors in on it! They'll be singing the blues after listening to that combination.

Unless they're the neighbors that have a daughter who's learning the recorder. In which case, they've probably lost either their hearing or their sanity by now.

There are worse ways to cope with sorrow... Murdering for example.

Although I think OP would appreciate being murdered right about now

#35: I don't think OP wants THAT permanent solution to her temporary problem.

creative..? i guess. could be worse. could be naked yodelling
rainbowdog 17
She could be doing that publicly, if she isn't already.
cakefete2 31
If OP's mom is hot, naked yodeling in public might get her a date. On one hand, no more yodeling. On the other, psychiatrists are expensive.

Or singing terribly

What the **** #45! Why the hell would she yodel naked in the streets for a date. Plus she already has a husband! Unless their divorced b

Hey, maybe take her to a mountain one day and let her yodel as much as she wants while you sit in the car listening to music!

Or while listening to The Sound of Music.

And now I picture your mom as Mr. Bone. See who gets the reference.

Sorry for your ears, OP, but that's a pretty awesome and funny story to tell!

Well its unique, gotta give her that!! I think you should be proud of her honestly, break ups are hard and most people tend to choose self destructive ways of coping.
False_Stupidity 42
Instead she chooses a method destructive to everyone else's ears and sanity...
