Today, my parents thought it would be a great surprise to accidentally shoot me in the leg for my birthday. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to the gun range for a birthday and got shot in the foot by my mom. FML
Today, I took my 15-year-old daughter to our local shooting range for her birthday, as she requested. While she was setting up a target in front of me, I jokingly pulled the trigger and shouted, "Think Fast!" not realizing that the safety was off. I shot my daughter in the arm on her birthday. FML
Today, my parents forgot it was my birthday. They ordered me to scrub the common bathroom, and when I asked if they'd remembered, my dad's reaction was, "Oh! Really?" My mom's was, "I thought that it was next week." What lovely parents I have. FML
Today, my parents took me out to dinner. I thought they were taking me because it's my birthday. Turns out they are getting divorced. They forgot it was my birthday. FML
Today, I came home a day after my birthday, and was greeted by my mother who told me, "Oh, I have birthday present for you." She explained that she and my father went on a hike, and handed me my present. I got a fucking stick for my birthday. FML
Today, my aunt asked to see my new airsoft pistol. Not thinking anything of it, I handed it to her. She shot me in the leg. I was standing next to her. FML
Today, I thought my family would like it if I celebrated the new year with them. My brother thought that I'd like him to shoot my butt with his new gun in celebration. FML
Today, I went paintballing with my siblings. Once we were done, they realised I hadn't been shot at all. They cornered me in the forest and lit me up. I have welts all over my legs. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML
Today, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. FML

With an actual bullet? Or something like a BB gun?

Bazooka. Nothing out of the ordinary.

What kind of gun was it?

When you get asked what you got for your birthday, you can simply tell people you got a shot. Just don't specify that it was with a gun, happy birthday op!

Yeah...pretty sure that's highly illegal and should be reported immediately. Of course, OP doesn't specify the type of "shot" - was it a gun, paintball gun, Nerf gun, or was it even a gun? Regardless, that's assault and battery and, depending on the OP's age, child abuse. This is why idiots shouldn't have access to guns...

What type of shot it was isn't specified, and being idiots or not, it is America, having a gun is the American right, they would have to change a rule that they will never change because, well, because America/murica

Too many ppl here don't get the sarcasm of the post, it isn't meant as literal as it's said, the literal version would just state that they somehow managed to accidentally shoot him/her, the "great surprise" part is more sarcastic :P
