Today, I walked into my house to find several of my friends there for a surprise sweet sixteen party my mom was throwing for me. Everything was going great until the doorbell rang and a clown walked in. My mom hired a clown for my sweet sixteen. My friends took pictures. FML

Today, I went to a surprise birthday party for a friend. Everyone was hiding and waiting to yell "Surprise!" when I got a call from my mom. I was loudly discussing family gossip and trying to get my mom to hang up when the door opened. Everyone yelled "Surprise!" and then turned to stare at me. FML

Today, a clown came over for my son's 8th birthday party. There was a moment of silence then laughter as everyone realized the clown and I were wearing the same plaid shirt. FML

Today, as I returned home, I noticed some movement inside my house. Thinking it was a break-in, I called 911. It was my friends and some coworkers trying to throw me a surprise birthday party. Nobody's said a word to me since. FML

Today, my friends threw me a Halloween themed party for my sweet sixteen. When I arrived, one of my friends jumped out from behind the door, dressed as Michael Myers. I peed myself in front of everyone I knew. FML

Today, after I tried to plan a surprise party for my friend, and a series of miscommunications and accidental reveals, it turned it into a surprise party for myself. I walked into a room filled with people shouting, "Surprise!" FML

Anyone for cake?

Today, it was my boyfriend's mom's surprise birthday party. I was sent to pick up the very expensive cake and dozens of balloons. Not only was it windy and the balloons flew away, I tripped and dropped the cake. In the driveway in front of all their family and friends. FML

Today, it's my birthday, and I was going over to my friend's house for dinner. When I walked in, everyone yelled, "Surprise!" and then turned on the lights. When my friend looked over at me, she said, "Wrong person guys, turn off the lights." FML

Today, I went to a friend's sweet sixteen. Since I didn't know any else at the party I was really happy when the mother told me she sat me next to someone she thought I would have a lot in common with. He ended up being mentally challenged and talked to a sock puppet the whole party. FML

Today, my family threw me a surprise party for my 29th Birthday. My brother-in-law sent me a text telling me they were all waiting for me to arrive. Thinking it was at my sister's home, I drove two hours there. It was actually at my parents' house. I missed my party and they ate my cake. FML

Today, I had a surprise birthday party for my mom who turned 57. About an hour into the party, I look over at my mom and she was grinding all over my best friend while holding a bottle of tequila in her hand, and a pair of leopard skin panties hanging out of her pants. FML

Was it a stripper clown?

Oh well? Get over it. And yeah, I agree with some others. Be grateful she did something like that. Most parents would never even think of doing anything more than a small party with a cake.

you shoulda run with it, made it cool. with the right attitude, you can pull most things off. of course, if it was a stripper clown that would be a whole other level of awesomeness.

YDI for complaining about it. Today, I organized a surprise Sweet Sixteen birthday party for my daughter. I spent days planning and buying supplies, I bought her a nice gift, brought all of her friends over to the house, and even paid for entertainment to come- a clown! After all the preparation the party seemed to be going well. However, instead of a thank you, all I got was a temper tantrum from my daughter because "clowns are for little kids". FML

The FML never said anything about a temper tantrum being thrown. The FML about it is that a Sweet Sixteen party is for teenagers, not 5 year-olds. Any mom who would think that a clown for her sixteen year-old and her friends would be a good idea is seriously mislead.

You seem to be pretty mislead if you think you can generise for every 16 year old. Im 25 and would love a surprise party with a clown.

I honestly don't see how this is a FML.. Aww, poor you. You have friends and your mom loves you. Boohoo. Boy, you are going to have a really tough time in the real world.

Haha, she's just doing the mom thing. There's nothing wrong with clowns as long as they don't stay till night. You're lucky your mom cares for you enough to have time to do this.
