Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. FML

Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. FML

Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML

Today, I had to delay the Father's Day dinner that I had to cook, so it wouldn't conflict with my wife and kids' gaming schedules. FML

Today, I went into labor with my first child, and as much as I pleaded, I had to wait for my husband to finish his raid in World of Warcraft before he'd take me to the hospital. FML

Today, my fiancé nervously sat me down for a "serious chat". The chat wound up with him asking if we could postpone our wedding, because his World of Warcraft guild had a raid scheduled for the same day. FML

Today, I was feeling proud of myself because I finally quit World Of Warcraft. I later found out about the gift my dad's family gave me. It was a 12-month subscription to World Of Warcraft. FML

Today, my boyfriend taught my son to do his chores. Not real chores, but "Runescape chores" on my boyfriend's account. My son won't pick up his toys or put his shoes away, but he'll jump on the computer to grow plants or cut trees or some other stupid shit. FML

a man who loves WoW more than family shouldn't have one to begin with.

Your poor son.. how selfish to pick pixels over your own flesh and blood. What is worse is you admit it's a problem, but do nothing to fix it.

Who said OP isn't doing anything about it? Just because she didn't RIGHT THEN doesn't mean she wont later. If OP had made a fuss, she could have been late to the ceremony. What's worse? One parent missing it, or two?

Your family should NEVER take a back seat to a stupid online game. Shame on you.

More like, F Y Son's Life. He has to grow up with an oaf for a father who is a terrible person.

If he's horde, roll an alliance and pwn him. No, but seriously, WoW it's fun but some things are just more important, Ice Crown Citadel will still be there tomorrow.

Blowing it up won't do crap.... you don't run it off a disk, you install it.... but should you happen to take the computer and hit him with it, well then the problems solved isn't it?
