Today, I rented some movies in attempts to cheer up my best friend. Her husband just died a few weeks ago in a helicopter accident. I was in a rush and didn't read the descriptions of the two films, one was about a plane crash where all the passengers died. She cried through the entire movie. FML

Today, I decided to watch a movie I hadn't seen before to bring my spirits up, as I've been feeling down lately. How did the movie end? Everybody died. FML

Today, I watched Cast Away with my girlfriend after not seeing it for a year. I forgot how sad it was when Wilson "dies" at the end. I cried. My girlfriend told me to man up. FML

Today, I was at a party and saw an old friend from college. I went up to her asking how she was and how her family was. She went on to tell me that her husband left her a month ago and started crying. I told her that he was an ass anyway and that she didn't need him. Turns out he died. FML

Today, I thought my coworker had confided to me that a close friend had died too soon, but it turns out she'd just ruined an expensive pan. We talked for 10 minutes and she cried. FML

The betrayal

By jealous of my friend - 14/06/2022 02:00

Today, after I invited my friend to a movie and she cancelled on me because she had to study, I obviously agreed and cancelled our tickets, I was scrolling through Instagram stories and came across hers, and saw she was with one of her friends in that same movie theater. FML

Today, the girl I like came over to my house to watch a movie. We had seen pretty much every movie that I suggested, so we ended up watching The Lion King. I forgot how sad that movie is, because once Mufasa died I started bawling my eyes out. FML

Today, trying to be romantic, I invited my girlfriend over to watch a movie. I said she could pick one up on the way, and I'd pay for it later. I ended up having to suffer through some "movie" that involved nothing but Nicolas Cage gurning like a stroke victim between crappy fight scenes. FML

Scary

Today, I took my girlfriend to a scary movie, hoping I could comfort her at a scary part. Instead when a scary part came on, she reacted by throwing up all over my lap and the person in front of us. FML

Cunning

Today, my best friend called me to cancel our mall plans. I could hear that she was watching a movie in the background. I then called my boyfriend to see if he was busy, and I could hear the same movie in the background. FML

Today, during a text conversation with a girl I've been trying to get with, she complained about how crummy of a day she was having. I told her it couldn't be as bad as she thought, and she would probably get it over it soon. Then she told me she had found out her cousin had been murdered. FML

Why the hell didn't you look at the descriptions and/or pick her fav movies? And why the hell didn't you turn it off once you realised? Idiot. YDI

If you were a total douche, you would have rented "Twilight Zone" where Vic Morrow and two kids were decapitated in a helicopter accident while filming. But only a complete asshole would rent that, right? So, what did you rent? OH . . . MY. . . ******* . . .

Sometimes, you should judge a movie by the cover. Even though you claim you didn't have time to read the descriptions, you obviously would of had time to actually look at the cover of the DVD and from that cover, SOMETIMES, you can sense if it is a good movie to watch with someone who is in grief.

A poorly-thought out plan is one that should not have been done at all. YDI. Next time your friend is in emotional distress, actually go the full mile to try and cheer her up. You wouldn't buy a book for yourself without reading the back cover, so why would you get a movie for your friend without reading the description?

YOU are a terrible friend. Also, who lets the movie play through after the airplane crash plot is unveiled?

Sooooooooooooooooooooo why did you still watch it? Do you not own DVD's? Did you not read the back of the case before plugging it in and then watching as your friend sobbed for two hours? Either you're a moron, of I call fake.
