Today, my mom told me she spent $760 on "quantum pendants" that "produce scalar energy that helps to enhance the body’s biofield." When I told her she got scammed, she denied it and yelled at me. Best part? She frequently lectures me about how I waste my money and spend irresponsibly. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom blew her top when I casually mentioned that it's pretty well known that the story of Jesus is a retelling of older Persian and Egyptian stories. She then went on to yell at me that I wasted my money on college and "book learning". FML
Today, I found out my mom has literally spent all her savings sending money to some bullshit-peddling megachurch televangelist, who apparently told her that giving them money would ensure her future fortune. Tithings, my ass. FML
Today, my mom told me that I needed to manage my spending better. This is the same woman who will log onto Candy Crush Saga, play a level and not come remotely close to beating it, and then blow $20+ on it to complete it. She got just a tad angry when I pointed out this hypocrisy. FML
Today, my mother took 350 dollars from savings to go to a psychic. But it's okay though, because now I know I'm an "ancient soul from another dimension". An "ancient soul" who now has no money. FML
Today, my mother flipped out that I spent $20 on a gift for myself for my birthday. Instead of getting a gift for me, she spent $300 on a new vacuum cleaner, and claims that we didn't have enough left in our budget to spend on me. FML
Today, my mom started dipping into my college savings, just so she can continue throwing money away on visiting a medium who claims she can channel the spirit of our recently-deceased family dog. FML
Today, I bought my mother an expensive TV she had been looking at. After I bought it, she continued browsing for more stuff. I told her I couldn't afford the extra items. She got mad and called me "selfish". FML
Today, my mother started nagging me for spending $500 on a guitar, stating that, "We're not in the mood for unnecessary bullcrap." I paid for it with MY money, and she suddenly turned up at MY house because my father kicked her out of their house after finding out that she cheated on him. FML
Today, my mom stole my holiday money because she found it “near her bag” in my kitchen and “assumed it was hers” and she must have “forgotten it was in there all this time.” I demanded it back, but she’d already spent it on hair, nails, shoes, and a date night with dad. She won’t pay me back either. FML
Today, I found out that the $200 I reluctantly gave to my mother so she could rent a house was paid to a scammer. Now she wants to live with me, in my one bedroom apartment. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Dude, those quantum pendants are dangerous. I got one and now I randomly phase between the universe and an alternate one.

this isnt even a FML. your mom is just a hypocrite. and plus not like she spent YOUR $700. if she did THEN it would be a FML.

If you guys had a mom like this, you'd understand why it was an FML. Because s/he has to live with their mom probably believing in weird crap like this all the time, and this is probably just one of the worst examples.

#7, are you brain dead? Seriously. You don't question your parents or you get your ass beat. It is simple as that. They can be as hypocritical as they want, because they own you.

LoL I got pulled into an Acai berry scam. It was a big "fad" for a minute where I used to live and I was like OK why not give the free bottle a try. I was to embarrassed to tell my mom I did it thougha nd figured id wait to see if it worked. She has gotten on me about spending money (I love to shop.... bear in mind I have not lived with my parents in years... i can spend money the way i like because I MAKE IT myself and support myself). Well I went to my parents house to hang out one night and saw my mom had gotten the acai berries. HAHA. I dont know. It was funny to us. What sucked is she received hers and I never did. We ordered from the same site though lol.
