Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out I was named after the woman my dad was having an affair on my mom with. FML
Today, I found out that my uncle, who is still married to my aunt, is trying to seduce my mom. FML
Today, I found out that my 6-year-old son was named after my wife's "Favorite Uncle" because he might also be the father. FML
Today, I found out that the man I called grandpa for 40 years is really my dad. My drunk aunt spilled the beans. Her exact words were, "My dad is a better dad to you than he EVER was to me! You never wondered why he treated you better than his other grandchildren? You're his son!" FML
Today, we got the results of our family's ancestry DNA tests. My father isn't related to me, but my grandfather is still my grandfather. Apparently grandma cheated on grandpa to get 'dad', and my mother cheated on 'dad' with my 'uncle' to get me. FML
Today, I found out my mom is still cheating on my dad with her ex boyfriend from her teenage years. She was caught last year, but apparently it's still going on. FML

I agree with #1. Some memories are great like Uncle Robert and Uncle Jeffrey. They were cool too. Oh and Aunt Lisa that one time you met her.

Since "Uncle Jimmy" has " " around his name, does that uncle is OP's dad?

#55: No, "Uncle Jimmy" means Uncle Jimmy ain't actually Uncle Jimmy. Do you understand now?

55- She means that she called him uncle in an affectionate way, not that he was her uncle or her dad. It's like how some people say "she's like a sister to me."

My friend is a good example. He likes this girl, it's really obvious but he always says "she's like a sister to me." and everytime he says that she looks at me and rolls her eyes. It's pretty funny

58 You may be wrong. Calling them Uncle then stating their name is a common excuse. It's like saying the girl you're out with is your cousin when she really isn't and is just an excuse to not be caught.

66 is right. Uncle is a common excuse moms give their kids so they dont ask too many questions. Of course what happens when the kids ask dad whens uncle jimmy coming to visit again?

"We found out", does that mean you dad is still in the picture, or siblings? If your dad is still in the picture it then this FML might get a lot worse, but either way your mom is a *****.

I assumed that they found out the mother was cheating and she either lied about who the other man was or they didn't know who it was with, and they just found out it was Uncle Jimmy.

That's just wrong...

Your mom needs a ass kicking. That's disgusting to bring the other man around your child.

Hopefully, he wore his Jimmy hat or he might be someone's Daddy Jimmy. Yours, perhaps?

It is my duty to inform you, Perdix, that you have now achieved a higher level of Internet fame. Your comment reading "well I guess he'll be missing the wedding you should have had" has been featured on artoftrolling.com Well done Perdix, you are meme!
