Today, I invited my boss and his family over for dinner. As usual, I bought his kids Christmas' presents, nothing too fancy though. This year, he had one more that wasn't here last year. So I just pulled something from under the tree to hand him. He opened it on the spot. It was my son's PS3. FML

Today, at the office, everyone in my department swapped secret santa presents. I bought the guy whose name I picked a DVD box-set of his favorite TV series. One of my friends got a fancy make up kit. Another got a pack of posh notebooks. I got a toilet plunger. FML

Today, it's my husband's birthday. I tried to buy him a new computer game, to which he complained. I cooked him steak and his favorite cake, and got him another nice gift instead. Hours later, his online friends bought him a new game and it was the only time I saw him genuinely smile. FML

Today, it was my birthday. I finally got the PS3 I've been asking for, for a long time. When I opened the box, I didn't find a PS3, but a bunch of clothes that my mom put in my brother's PS3 box. FML

Today, my husband called me from the store, trying to decide whether or not to buy the new games console he's been wanting. I'd already purchased one and hid it, ready for Christmas Day. I couldn't talk him into not buying himself one. There goes a $500 surprise. FML

Today, my son told me the Christmas letter he wrote to Santa was a joke and he didn't want the stuff he asked for. I already bought everything. FML

Today, I finally got a Christmas gift, a calligraphy set, for my father that I have been looking for for a month. My dad came home happily with the same calligraphy set today, saying that he surprised himself for Christmas. He got it cheaper than me. FML

Today, my son turned 8. We watched as he unwrapped a $55 Nerf gun, extra 'bullets', new shoes and a school bag with his favorite TV character on the front and a action figure inside. As he finished he looked me straight in the eyes and says, "That's great ma, but seriously what'd you get me?". FML

Today, after having my husband ask if I 'had any plans' for the weekend, and him mentioning that he got me something special, he played his PS4 for hours, ignored me, then finally took a break to hand me a tiny box of chocolates. I can't even be mad because he looked so proud. FML

Did #26 (27 and 28 lol) just call somebody dumb and say they have bad grammar when they can't even use the correct "you're" in their own sentence?

Irony rocks. All I can say to this FML is h(ow)t(he)f did that happen? What were in the other gifts lead bricks? A PS3 weighs a whole lot. I should know I have one.

You must be retarded. How can you MISTAKENLY "just pull from under the tree" a BIG ASS PS3?! Dude, I got one yesterday from my aunt, and when I tired to "pull it from under the tree", I had to use two hands. Next year, think before trying to fill the fat man's role.

I haven't seen an FML written this poorly in a while. I've read it a dozen times and am still not sure what happened, although I'm sure YDI.

You obviously haven't read some of the stupid stories on this site that were submitted by women. Stupidity is not sexist.

Seriously? YDI for being an idiot. YDI again for thinking this is an FML for you, and not your son. HE's the one who got his playstation given away. FYL for your son. YDI for you.
