Get up!

Today, I bitched out my grandmother, who lives with my family, for being lazy and laying in bed until 6-7pm for the past month. When I was done, she told me she had been diagnosed with cancer and was depressed because of it. Nobody had bothered to tell me. FML

YDI for bitching out your grandmother.

how about asking her if she is okay before going ahead and bashing her...

She's your GRANDMOTHER for goodness sake! She must be OLD. What more does she need to do?! Have some respect.

You are all going way over board here. Being old does not mean you've earnt the right do to **** all. Being old merely means you are old. Respecting your elders is not giving in to their every whim. But respecting their decisions; requests and treating them as you would treat any other person. To those of you that treat peopel differently based on WHAT they are, rather than who. Sort your ******* lives out. Tell you what. To you all with your "OMG OLD PEOPLE DESERVE TO BE TREATED WELL BECAUSE THEY ARE OLD AND STUFF" I hope if/when you get old you have that littler niggling man talking to you. "Their only giving you what you want because you're going to die soon, they don't love/care for you enough to talk to you as an equal . . ." Still sticking to my guns. FYL OP! **** IT! Still wishing your old dear the best.

It's not so much the whole yelling at her grandma that gets me. You shouldn't treat any person like that. Obviously there's something wrong with someone who's sleeping in that late. Sleeping alot is a sign of depression whether op knows this or not is irrelevant but still. Yelling at someone like that especially a family member is just wrong. Your supposed to rely on your family. Those are the people who will love you no matter what. Op deserves guilt after what they did.

I'm pretty sure everyone's already said it. You shouldn't treat _anyone_ that way, to be completely honest. Next time, make sure you have all of the facts before you make a huge scene.

Wtf?! Why would you yell at your grandma, anyway? Do you expect her to be doing work or something, even if she were healthy? She's your grandma! C'MON! Seriously, get some respect, and expect this to come back and bite you in the ass. Jerk.

How about checking to see if she's ok before saying anything. And the fact that you let her sleep in until 6-7 for about a month before asking what is wrong or figuring it out yourself shows how uncaring you are. I see why no one told you: you're an asshole.

To #62, Learn proper English before you start bitching people out. As for the poster, you deserve it because it's your Grandmother--and, old or not, you should respect her. She's your family, but most of all, if she weren't alive, you wouldn't be born. On top of all of that, bitching someone out does not fix your problem. Maybe if you had been more concerned about WHY she was sleeping in all day, rather than being pissed about it, you would have found out. I hope you feel like an ass about this.

I think this is probably an April Fool's joke by someone like myself that thinks FML users are unbelievably whiny self-centered bitches. Although it is something I've been waiting to see on FML: "I committed a mild social faux pas in front of someone with cancer. FML"

#62 needs a f*cking xanax...i had a great aunt who used to refer to me as "what's her face" and you know what? I ignored it...she was a cranky old widow...and i was slightly afraid she'd beat me with her cane...

Wow, i consider my self an asshole, but i would never yell at my grandmother. YDI.
