Love and Kids: Leave them alone

Leave them alone

By Anonymous - 23/07/2009 11:13 - Greece

Today, I said to our pool-boy, "I know what you're doing, and you have to stop it." He started shouting that I had no right to tell them what to do and that they were in love. He was referring to his relationship with my eldest son. I wanted to tell him to stop drinking my beers. FML

Today, I started work cleaning a customer's pool. I think her husband watches too much porn because he keeps glaring at me from the windows, and I overheard him telling his wife that he knows what's "going on" and that he's "not gonna let it happen". FML

Today, I had to explain to my 18-year-old boyfriend why it is not okay to pee in the pool. FML

Today, I was at the pool with two boys I babysit. The eldest wouldn't get out of the pool so I pretended to call his dad. He then ran out of the pool, pushed me down, grabbed my phone, chucked it into the pool and then ran back into the pool. FML

Today, I went to the pool with my son. One moment I'm sitting down, applying sunscreen to my legs, and the next I look up to see him squatting on the diving board, seconds before dropping a deuce into the pool. As we got kicked out, he screamed that it was my fault. FML

Misunderstanding

Today, my husband tried to annoy me by slurping on his almost-finished drink. I yelled at him to knock it off. Later, our daughter told her class that mommy and daddy had been fighting about his drinking during breakfast. FML

Today, my family and I were celebrating my dad's birthday. The two of us were standing by the pool chatting, and I jokingly said "You're old now." I suppose I should have expected him to shove me into the pool, my phone still in hand, and retort, "You're soaked now." FML

Today, I told my friend over the phone that I had to go drop the kids off at the pool. She told me that she didn't need to know about my bathroom habits and hung up on me. I really had to take my children to the local swimming pool for swim lessons. FML

Today, as a supervisor at a water park, several clients came up to me and complained about a topless girl in our wave pool. I found the girl, called her out, and politely told her that she was not allowed in the pool without a top. "She" was a fat 15 year-old boy. FML

Today, a really drunk couple staggered into the store I work at. One of them yelled at me, "Hey you! Kid! Tell us where the booze is at!" This would have been funny if these people weren't my parents. FML

Today, a couple yelled at me and reported me to the homeowner association for "watching them make out" at the pool. I'm the lifeguard. FML

I don't think OP's FMLing because of him being gay, but more because it was an awkward situation...

Um...I think one or two of you missed the point (like #2), OP wasn't mad that the pool boy and his son were in a gay relationship, he just wanted the pool boy to STOP DRINKING HIS BEER. He probably didn't know his son was gay, or if he did, he didn't care.

Not the best way to find out, but really, the worst part is that he stole your beer.

Why does everyone seem to think that if a person has a little bit of money, or even a lot, that they can't be upset about anything? All you people who think that are truly retarded. So what if someone has more money than you, get the hell over it and maybe go do something about it instead of saying shit like, "You have a pool, quit bitching." What the **** is that? Money isn't everything to people, and just because some people have a good job and make good money doesn't mean that their life is completely grand. Because they're better off financially than you doesn't mean that their life is so much better than yours.

Anything to do with homosexuality automatically has a flame war started. I wouldn't be surprised if half of the buried comments are 4chan.org people who simply want to antagonize everyone. Now, it makes my heart smile that the pool boy and his employer's son found love. Very adorable. By this same token, the pool boy probably wasn't stealing the beers, the son was probably giving them to him (and drinking them himself, likely).

Lonely_Lez: And it's funny how everything has to do with 4chan. The same happens on Lamebook. Wth? I don't know what 4chan is and could care less. OP: Next time you decide to confront the pool boy about his thieving ways... try starting the conversation off with "You're stealing my beers and I know it." Sheesh. But, FYL.. what an awkward moment for you.

#90 Could *not* have cared less. "Could care less" means that you do care (to some degree), whereas "couldn't care less"means means there is no level of caring below the current feeling. Does that make sense?

To those who are hating on the gays: It's none of your business! What do you know about homosexuality? Seriously, this is not a site to post your beliefs, and even if it was, you're not being very accepting. To the OP: This is cute! It's only an FML because this is probably not the way you wanted to find out, but hey, he found love! :]
