Today, while mowing my backyard, I messily discovered that a family of rabbits has been living out there in the tall grass. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was on my back patio talking with my husband. It got dark outside, and I saw something shuffling in the back yard. I freaked out so bad that I went to run inside, only to fly face-first into the screen door. Turns out the shuffling was a baby rabbit. FML
Today, while mowing the lawn, I ran over a hornet's nest. FML
Today, my 6 ft snake got loose. I found it. It was in my neighbor's backyard, constricting their pet rabbit. FML
Today, I had to mow the lawn with a weed-whacker because it rained a lot the past week and the push mower was broken. I started "mowing", and forgot that I was mowing where the dogs take dumps, I absentmindedly whacked over dog poop… which got flung into my face. FML
Today, I found out that we have six skunks under my shed. While I was mowing the lawn, they all came out and sprayed me. FML
Today, I got home from a long day at work, hoping to just fix dinner and relax, only to find that my cat had come into the house with a rabbit, and is now stuck underneath the cabinet. FML
Today, at a big Easter egg hunt, the kids found a wild bunny. Everyone smiled and "aww"ed, until my dog caught and ate it in front everyone. FML
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents, and now they have a dead rabbit because I sat on it. FML
Today, while going for a walk, I saw two bunnies next to the road. Apparently, I was scarier than the oncoming traffic, because one of them decided to sprint into the road as I walked by. I could hear its bones crunch as it got hit by a car. FML
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I am suprised that they have not moved after hearing you. Poor rabbits anyway :(

rabbits instinct is to be still and try to blend into the background.

They were blended into the background all right.

Your profile pic fits perfectly

As someone who has done this before let me start by saying I am so sorry. You feel so guilty afterwards, for me at least I felt bad for a few days afterward. You eventually come to the conclusion that things like that happen, and are, really, unavoidable. Best of luck op, try not to let it eat at you too much.

Checking your lawn before mowing it makes this situation completely avoidable

53 sorry everybody isn't as perfect as you.

who the hell walks around the entire yard to check for animals before mowing?

I don't know about you but I'd rather not walk 10,000 acres before mowing.

53 - are you trying to be stupid on purpose?
JCRouzer29 27
I'm there with you, I've accidently mowed a small rabbit in short grass because it was so well hidden. Did feel bad BTW. #53 Not walking a few acres for that, better to watch while you mow than give them time to come in again.

Oh my god that's terrible. I'm sorry you had to experience that. I couldn't even imagine if that was me. FYL indeed.

If it had been the Pokemon universe they would've just fainted.

My friend turned on his lawn mower after winter once, and he soon found out that a family of mice were nesting on the blades...

Reminds me of when my dog killed two bunnies, thinking they were play things. Discovered them the following morning and I felt so bad about it since the mother rabbit seemed to be moving her young to a safer spot. I still feel horrible about that even though it's been over a year but shit like this happens and all you can do is move on with life.

my dog would "play with"" baby birds that fell out of our tree in the back yard. so sad

You get used to it after awhile, my cat would bring home anything from shrews to baby turkeys.

Once you regularly have a carpet of mangled rodent carcasses on your front walkway from your cats, you just sort of shrug and step around them. ...Or step on them by accident in the dark. Or their spleens once the bugs are done. ******* spleens...
