Today, during a family reunion, my 89 year-old grandma stood up and drunkenly made a speech about how ashamed I should be of myself for still being single. She then passed out at the table. Half my family got up to help her, the other half whispered in agreement. FML

Today, I woke up to my father sobbing his eyes out in the kitchen. Apparently, I screamed, "DON'T TELL THEM I'M PREGNANT!" in my sleep last night. FML

Today, my mum, who always wanted more kids than just me, started crying because I'm not pregnant with her first grandchild yet. I'm 16, and this all started because I got my period and I asked to borrow one of her tampons because I'd ran out of my own. FML

Today, I finally decided to tell my mother, a former Miss North Carolina winner, that I was several weeks pregnant. She immediately burst into tears and hugged me. She kept saying, "Thank god, thank god." At first I was relieved. Then she said, "I thought you were just getting fat." FML

Send him to the store to buy tampons. Then tell him he bought the wrong ones and send him back again. When he gets tired of buying the wrong ones ask him to buy some condoms "just in case" - he won't sleep for days.

141 can't even spell a single word right. Man, we'd stop being so shocked and concerned for your future if you actually a) tried to spell instead of purposely (we hope) spelling everything wrong or b) learned how to function.
