Exhausted parents can relate

By ajnmegs - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States - Aurora

Today, while watching TV with my wife, I realized that we were still watching "My Little Pony" even though the kids had been asleep for half an hour. FML

No big deal. You might be an adult, but you were a kid once...

Kiddie shows are meant to be interesting and addictive, I'm sure everyone's found themselves flipping through channels and somehow ending up watching a kid show

Aaaaw that's sweet that you are so use to it, you didn't even notice, but what do you think about turning of the tv and playing some my little pony of your own in the bedroom *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge*

I actually find cartoons and kid shows more funny nowadays. Adults understand more than the kids do and once you start watching them, they're cuter and funnier than you thought they were when you were a kid. Just my opinion.

Also, you can catch subliminal references, topics, and some adult humour hidden between the cutesy/kiddie surface of most shows. Fun Fact: Adventure Time takes place after a Nuclear Apocalypse.

Exactly. You don't understand the adult humor when you're young so that's why it's funnier.

I was going to vote "you deserve it," but since you view this as an FML, you obviously don't deserve a show as awesome as My Little Pony.

Haha I feel like it I explain it it would just make it sound worse with the reception it got but I was just being sarcastic since it's a kiddie show.

That's what's so great about cartoons lately, they tend to be entertaining for all age groups now.(:

Don't worry, I've found myself mesmerised by Dora, Sesame Street, and Little Einsteins. Just take a deep breath and put on Terminator. You'll be back to normal in... Ooh...Yo Gabba Gabba is on! It's Dancy Dance Time!

As a parent of three little ones I know how easy it is to become used watching kids' shows on tv all day. Sometimes I "watch" the show but my mind is somewhere else.
