Have some empathy

By liz - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, at work, I had toast thrown at me by an old Vietnam vet. Who also happens to have a dead cat in his freezer. I love retirement homes. FML

wow I must have missed her or somthing but snikerdoodles hasn't posted a comment...

from the retirement homes ive been in you are not aloud to have pets.... and the only way you can go outside is with one of the workers so that you wont fall and hurt yourself.... so how did he get the cat??? and also evev though some peoples brains to go kinda wackey vietnam soldiers were trained so that if tyey were interogated and get in prison and tortured they would still not tell the enemy any information. its hard to tell but i am leaning towards fake

Hope it was plain toast and why a dead cat?

OP, you're an asshole. You have no respect for a war veteran you are supposed to be paid to care for. AND you are manipulating information to make all the idiots around to go all "ooh, the vet is a jerk coz he's got a dead cat in his freezer, uuh". This makes you a despicable douche on top of an asshole. It's pretty obvious why the cat is in the freezer (beloved pet passed away and is awaiting burial or cremation etc., it's VERY frequent with people who care for their pets and don't want to just throw them in the trash when they pass away). Although the fact that it's completely irrelevant to the FML or to the toast incident makes OP a douche who is presenting the old vet as some nutjob by manipulating idiots with the info about the cat. This alone makes me want to throw toasts at OP too. I'd say the old vet has it right, and OP deserves it.

Thank you. that vet went through shit that makes the war in the middle east, the anti war movement now, and this healthcare battle look like trying to walk and chew bubble gum. this bugger deserved getting toasted

Dude this is the greatest story I've ever heard. Why is this an FML?
