Today, was my uncle's funeral. He was cremated, and his wish was to have his ashes spread into the sea. As we were waiting for the waves to come and take him away, a group of seagulls came by picking at all his ashes. I guess he tasted good. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, we spread my uncle's ashes at my grandparents' house. We were on a hill overlooking a sunset. It was a beautiful ceremony… until the winds changed direction. Our whole family wound up covered in my Uncle. He's still stuck in my hair. FML
Today, we went to disperse my father's ashes in his favorite lake. My brother was anxious to show off to his new wife, and took us to a fancy resort on the lake. He fell into the lake with my dad's ashes. Nobody laughed when he got out. Oh and as he's a stingy ass, I ended up paying for the trip. FML
Today, after pulling an all-nighter, I fell asleep at the beach. My friends took the opportunity to bury me in the sand, place food all around me, and wait for a flock of hungry seagulls to attack me. To top it off, they taped it all. FML
Today, after a stressful series of events, I went to the beach to unwind. I sat on the sand, breathed in deeply and closed my eyes, trying to find some sort of inner peace. Then a seagull shat on me. FML
Today, at the beach, a seagull conveyed its opinion of my cigarette by taking a dump on it, putting it out. Seems they have anti-tobacco sniper seagulls now. FML
Today, my friends and I went to the beach. We were tanning when I suddenly saw 10 roses floating in the ocean. I went around to pick up all the roses and threw the petals at my friends. Then I noticed that a big boat of people in black and white were looking at me with disgust. It was a funeral. FML
Today, my dog died and I told my grandfather I wanted her to be cremated. I came home later to find him burning her in our barbecue pit. FML
Today, at my grandad's funeral, as my dad and aunt poured his ashes into the hole, a strong gust of wind blew the ashes into my throat. I choked on my grandad. What made it worse was that the vicar had to stop her prayer to laugh. FML
Today, my dog died. We planned to get her cremated and keep the ashes. My sister put forward the idea of putting the ashes in our food so our dog can be "inside of us, always." She's completely serious. I'm scared to eat food from her now. FML
Today, my favorite fish died. To make things better my parents thought to take me out to dinner. We ate sushi. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

They will have to poo eventually though, so chances the ashes'll end up in the sea after all (or on someone's head) are pretty good.

When my Uncle died he told my Aunt to put his ashes in a douche so he could rest in his favorite place. No! I did NOT ask her if she did it!

In Florida at least, it's illegal to dump ashes out to sea within 3 miles of the coast. you have to be in "International Waters" to be legit.

Meh. In the water the fish would've gotten him. At least this way he got the thrill of flying before he got pooped out.

#13 You are absolutely disgusting. The way you described it made me feel sick and how you said "yummy" and ":)" after is even more sickening. I hope YOU die and your ashes get eaten by seagulls. Just think how the OP would feel after reading that comment.

So, OP's uncle was cremated, consumed by a seagul, and then passed through the bird's system, and was shitted out through the other end. That sucks.

Having a comment that says what number your comment is, now that is what's sad. Especially when that's all it says, or like 10 said, when you're wrong.

I don't get why people decide to get cremated and then have their ashes spread somewhere where other people go.. That's kinda selfish to do, lmao. Other people swim in there and so do other animals. People also visit parks or w/e.

a lot of people want to be in their favorite place. a big part of their life. some people put it from the bible ashes to ashes dust to dust. that's sad that the segals are stupid. but this is a fml. that's horrible
