Today, my parents and I attended the funeral of my husband's mother. It was open-casket, and my parents went to take a look. My mum muttered, "With a dress that tacky, no wonder she died", and my dad chuckled. A fight quickly erupted, and the police were called. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom talked me into going to a funeral since my dad wouldn't go. It was for one of her classmates. When it was our time to view the casket, we paused in front of it for a second before my mom leans over to me and says, "What if I told you that was really your dad?" FML
Today, I was at my mom's funeral. My sisters and I were sitting in the front row. The funeral director, whom we had met with twice before, was going around greeting everyone. When she got to us, she asked where our mom was. Seriously? FML
Today, at my mother's open-casket funeral, my sister-in-law went to pay her respects. As she stood in front of the body, she coughed, muttering "Bitch" in the process. Either nobody else noticed or nobody cared, and she went on her way, noticeably not choked up at all. FML
Today, we buried my mom. I walked past my sister's husband just in time to hear him mutter: "Hope the fire's nice and hot down there, you old hag." I told my sister. She wouldn't believe me and accused me of trying to start drama. FML
Today, I intentionally caused my parents to have an intensely heated argument when I asked them how and where they first met. Dad said it was at a funeral, and mom said it was at a burial. FML
Today, it was dad’s funeral and I intended to speak but I was crying so much I couldn’t finish and mom had to help me back to my seat. Unfortunately, most of our family are arseholes and I could hear someone saying, “Disgraceful, shaming his dad like that.” It was the worst day of my entire life. FML
Today, I had to call the cops to break up a fistfight at my mother's funeral. It turns out my two brothers care more about having a pissing match over their favorite football teams than they do honoring our mother's memory. FML
Today, I’m stuck in a situation. It’s my mom's wedding, but her fiancé had a heart attack and died this morning. Now I’m surrounded by crying people, having to pretend to be upset so no one gets mad at me. I couldn’t care less to be honest, the man was an arsehole who treated mom and me like shit in private. FML
Today, my family attended the funeral of an old family friend's baby, who died in childbirth. Afterwards, my husband went around snickering and quietly telling dead baby jokes to the other attendees. FML
Today, during my father's funeral, I heard my mother-in-law mutter, "No loss there. Lazy cunt." FML

At least it's good you're not rude and disrespectful like your parents. That was terribly uncalled for especially during a time of mourning. I'm sorry OP. :(

Thing is she is, cause she referred to her mother in law as her husbands mother.....not even accepting her as apart of her family WTF

If my mother-in-law was that rude, I wouldn't accept her into my family either.

#37 what if the mother in law wasnt accepting of her sons choice of wife? stop making assumptions. its not rude to say husbands mother instead of mother in law, & that doesnt indicate the OP didnt accept her as family either. #44 it was the mother in laws funeral. she wasnt being rude. the OPs parents were.

That's pretty ******* pathetic. I would shun my parents if they did that. Awful.

Very tasteless. And confusing. How does wearing a tacky dress warrant death? Why did your mother even bother showing up if she was going to be a bitch?

Your parents should be ashamed.

Don't think this was a humorous FML, whatsoever. It was very disrespectful what her parents said.

Just tell your mom that you'll bury her in something hideous when she dies.

You need to keep your parents away from society.

They were probably grieving,and tried to make a joke to get rid of the desperate atmosphere
