Today, I had a horrible case of the flu. I have a fever of 102 degrees and I can't breathe through my nose. Choosing to sleep it off turns out to be enough for my mom to call me a lazy fuck and scream at me for doing nothing all day. FML

Today, after almost a week of being bed-ridden with a bad flu, my mom told me it was my job to clean the house. When I told her I still had a fever and didn't feel well, she looked at me and said in an understanding voice "It's okay honey, you can do it slowly." FML

Today, I woke up on my boyfriend's bedroom floor. When I asked him why I was there, he said I'd gotten too hot, so he rolled me off his bed. I have the flu and a fever. FML

Today, I woke up with a high fever and hallucinations. I called for my mother, who after checking me, swore that I was just hungover from a night of partying, called me a "f*cking hedonist", and refused to help. FML

Today, I woke up with the flu that causes me to throw up violently until I dry heave and can't breathe. I told my mom I would rather have the runs, and not even a minute later, I got them. So now if I move too fast, I throw up, and if I don't move fast enough, I shit myself. FML

Today, I’ve been suffering with a fever of 104° as well as an ear and sinus infection. I asked my mom and sister if they could get me meds and fluids from the store. I sent them money through my bank app for the supplies. They took my money and went to lunch instead. I’m still sick as a dog. FML

Today, I woke up with the flu. My wife thinks I'm faking it so we don't have to go on date night, even though I've been on the toilet all day. FML

Today, I was taking a nap in our country house. I was sick with a fever of 101.3. When I woke up, I see that my family had left to go back to the apartment. They forgot me. FML

Today, I have the flu. I woke up to my son leaning over me, inches from my face, breathing in deeply. Apparently, he was trying to get sick so he could stay home from school. He's 15. FML

Today, I'm stuck in bed with a fever, aches, and nasty cough. My kids and husband had it too, and kept coughing without covering their mouths, despite my asking several times so I wouldn't get sick. FML

Today, my mom tells my sister that she is worried about her because she has a headache and feels like she might be getting a slight cold. I have had the flu for two weeks and have a 103 degree fever. I ask, "What about me?" Her response? "Stay away from your sister." FML

Maybe you should "accidentally" pass that flu on. Then she might understand how you feel and decide to shut up.

Honestly, I can't believe you would be so lazy! Back in my day I would go to work uphill both ways, fever or not. YDI.

Sorry, I was trying to use sarcasm but it didn't come across that way. I deserve the downvotes.

I got the joke. I laughed. Take heart, someone else does understand your humor :)

Nah. I got that sarcasm. There are far too many Sheldons in this world who don't understand sarcasm when they see/hear it.

if all else fails add /s to the end of your comment. it helps others know when you're not trying to be a dick, and for me it's pretty useful because I'm a sarcastic and satirical asswipe.

Don't forget to give her the same shit she gave you when she's bed ridden!

Your mom sounds like a self-centered narcissist.

As opposed to those selfless narcissists that insist on caring about others.

BrotherPhil 35

It can happen: "Look at how selfless I'm being". Kinda like the stereotype of a Jewish mother.

DanielleinDC 33

Thursday 23 June 2016 20:27

Yeah, but that's still being self-centered if you play at being selfless so you get attention.

I know the feeling, when I was younger if I ever had a sick day from school my mom would always tell me to wash up, vacuum and clean the house because I was "lucky enough to have a day off". Never mind the fact I was too sick to even walk further than the bathroom without passing out, let alone clean the whole house. It sucks, but feel better, OP!
