Great expectations

By sheryl_m - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I came home expecting a surprise party. It was my birthday and I had overheard my friends planning it all week. Nobody was there. It turns out the party they were planning was for my friend's dog's birthday. FML

You need to find new friends...a party for their dog? Really?

Happy birthday! But you know, the dog deserves a party, too.

Yeah......no. Next time you come up with a story, make sure it is something that COULD possibly happen in real life.

how old are you, 5?? if these are adults that throw surprise parties for dogs, they must be regulars on dr. phil or be a few french fries short of a happy meal... wtf? you need new friends, btw.

ouch.... a dogs birthday? I can't even remeber my cats b-day

It's not necessarily fake, so STFU. As #10 said, some people treat their pets like humans, sometimes WAAAY too much like humans. These people usually don't have many human friends, though. FYL for all your friends being losers. Also FYL because you, as part of the group, are probably a loser as well.

1. This is retarded 2. who the hell throws a party for a dog 3. you need new friends

This isn't necessarily implausible. Some people do have really awesome dogs that all their friends and family adore. And who needs a particularly good excuse to have a party anyway?

That... is ******* ridiculous. I would disown them all as friends, not because they aren't celebrating your birthday, but because they put that much planning into a BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR A DOG.
