Today, my mom made me teach my delusional gran web browsing. I barely made it to YouTube before she sneered at me, and told me to "stop pissing about before I smash your face in." Two hours and multiple slaps later, she still doesn't get what a URL is, and I fear for my life. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, just like almost every other day, my mom goes onto the computer and scolds me for what I watch on YouTube, even when the videos aren't that graphic. Today she scolded me because she found out that I'd watched videos related to the Max Headroom signal intrusion back in '87. Why can't I just watch what I want? FML
Today, I was teaching my grandma how to use her new tablet. After explaining and setting everything up, I left her alone to check her email. When I came back, she'd somehow "mistakenly" sent an email to our entire family with the subject line "Help! My grandson thinks I'm a dipshit and has kidnapped me!" FML
Today, I briefly left my laptop while I went to use the toilet. When I came back, I found "I" had posted on Facebook, calling my mom a "stupid cunt who should just stay in the kitchen." The only other person home at the time was my grandpa. She didn't believe it, and permanently grounded me. FML
Today, my mom thought it would be a good idea to see what websites I go on from my computer while I wasn't home. She clicked the link that gave my computer a virus that I just got rid of a few days ago. FML
Today, my grandmother threatened to kill herself with a banana. She then got angry with me when I didn't attempt to get the banana away from her. My mom punished me because I didn't take the situation seriously enough. FML
Today, my grandmother told me to say "sofa king retarded" really fast. Not only did it take me several attempts to figure out what it meant, I'm now grounded by my mother for having a foul mouth. FML
Today, I asked my son to show his grandma how to do some basic stuff on the computer. He said no way, he knows how long it takes old people to grasp computers. I jokingly threatened to ground him for 6 months unless he did it. He took the 6 months without hesitating. FML
Today, my grandparents visited. My grandpa kept getting off the couch and walking around to "stretch his legs." He kept kicking out my computer's network cable and messing up my game, smirking each time he did it. When I complained, my mom told me to shut up and show some respect. FML
Today, my psycho grandma yelled at me for being an "immature brat" by not offering to wash the dishes after dinner. I reminded her that when I offered last time, she raged at me for being "condescending." She responded by faking a heart attack and getting me indefinitely grounded. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Old people make me sad. What happened to baking with your grandma? Now it's teaching your grandy's how to use Twitter.

You deserve it for one simple reason--you put up with it. The first time she threatened you, perhaps even the first time she hit you, that was an FML. Two hours and multiple slaps goes well into the realm of YDI.

Agreed. But it IS op's grandma and their mom told them to do it so I'm guessing they had no choice. I would have kicked the chair out of under her and asked politely if she's willing to learn or suffer more chair injuries. With rolling chairs you can't really prove it was pushed purposely... Plus she's delusional anyway ;)

Don't agree, if you get slapped multiple times for trying to teach your delusional grannie the computer in front of your mom for 2 hours, thats abuse. Sorry.

People deserve to get abused by authority figures because they don't stop it? REALLY? As much as you'd like to tell yourself that you would tell your grandmother to stop hitting you, I bet you wouldn't, especially if you'd grown up that way and felt pressure from both your grandmother AND your mother to continue putting up with it. It's exactly this kind of mindset that makes people not want to report or admit to being abused.

OK, I gotta object. I see a page filled with comments that the poster should have physically attacked her grandmother (or in one case suggesting goatse!), but I get a comment moderated because I said she shouldn't put up with physical abuse? And when I click the link explaining "the rules," I get a smarmy and frankly immature link telling me that I can deal with it or screw off. Are we still allowed to click the "you deserved it" link, or do we have to vote as the admins think we should?

Well mr redneck, does anyone deserve to be abused like that for 2 hours?
The__Redneck 7
If they put up with it for two hours? Yes. Should someone be pitied if the smack their face into a wall over and over and over again? Maybe it's not a nice wall, but don't you think some of the responsibility goes to the fool who just keeps accepting it?

Grannies can be too controlling to leave. Anyone family older than you has more power.
