Unresolved issues

Today, my 7-year-old daughter made a new game: hitting me in the groin when I'm not expecting it. She hunts me in the house, hides around corners, and behind furniture to ambush me. She'll even do it if she catches me napping. I'm a grown man living in fear of a little girl. FML

Today, my father told me I was becoming violent because of the video games I play. I was playing Minecraft. FML

Today, I asked my 8-year-old daughter to kill a house spider for me. I am a 42-year-old man. FML
