Not your day, is it?
Today, my mom kept swearing and punished me while I was in an online lesson. I almost got punished by the teacher as well. FML

Today, after a conference with my teacher who had previously accused me of not doing my homework, she finally discovered she'd been losing it all this time. I've been getting straight Fs for a month. FML

Today, I was told by my teacher that she had 'given up' teaching me because someone had told her I have a mental illness, and that I don't understand what she says. FML

Not missing out on much
Today, my mom is obsessed with my academic success, as she was a highschool dropout, and actually gives me more homework than my school does, all so I’ll be more advanced than my peers. I barely know what a television is anymore, since it’s been so long I’ve had enough free time to watch one. FML

wait wait wait WAIT. if OP is at a decent age how do THEY not know what a verb is most of us learned in maybe 2 or 3rd grade it depends but honestly if you don't know and couldn't show your mom then YDI (I understand it doesn't say this in the OP's statement I'm JS)

74 - stfu. and lol OP I was homeschooled too but my mom never forgot stuff like that but she was lazy sometimes and didn't teach me stuff so I got behind on mat and geography :( thank GOD though I went to this homeschool school so I got caught up and actually learned shit. I'm lazy like my mom, so there's no way in homeschooling my kids. lol

Verb - it's what you do...
Kn0wledge123 21
Why should 74 stfu? It's actually a good question...
shakethat 10
I totally agree with 74. op is old enough to use the Internet and post fmls. They should know what a verb is by now.

I think it's time you go back to school...

"Hey Mom, if I use 'they' as a gender-neutral singular noun in casual speech, should the verb be plural or singular?" "Uh... Remind me what a verb is again, will you?" Point being, OP probably does know what a verb is.

homeschooling is easy. usually you have a textbook in front of you. look that shit up or use google. and why dont you know what a verb is? damn kids these days

try google ... works wonders (:
A7X_LoVeee 10
Lulz, 100 you tell 74 to "stfu" but then you proceed to ramble on about your life. As for OP, your mother is an idiot. Time for public school!

Probably not a good sign...
slantyshanty 7
yeah, no kidding right? I wonder if OP has ever been told what an adverb is, LOL.
Alleged_Cranium 7
In the phrase "Do you want fries with that?" The verb is "want".

I think it's a good sign. One less idiot out in the world while she stays home.

the t is right next to the r so it could have been an honest mistake
iliketurdles 7
Probably not since she doesn't even know what verb is.

In that case, I don't suggest asking her about antonyms or synonyms.

I think even a noun would be out of the question.

Try asking her what a syllipsis is. Spontaneous combustion will ensue.

Alleged_Cranium 7
In this case the verb is "google".

google owns all do not question mighty google it will find you and take your life

#178 because Google returns many more reliable results. Bing and Yahoo have been known to redirect their searches through Google's search engine.
