Today, it's my birthday. My family put a bouquet of balloons outside my room for me to find when I woke up. I walked out of my room, saw the balloons, screamed, and fell down the stairs. FML

Balloonophobia, that's something you don't see often!

Were there Nicolas Cage faces printed on each one of them?

It's my birthday too, my parents haven't even acknowledged my birthday, neither has anyone else either. FML

Happy birthday! I'd prefer being scared by balloons than not have my birthday remembered at all :(

Thank you guys! You all are awesome!!

The balloons were just a distraction to make you forget about the stairs and fall to your doom.

Hope you still had a good birthday! You can't let one little slip-and-fall ruin it for you!

#21, heck, with an aggressive personal-injury attorney with shady ethics, this could be the most lucrative birthday of your life!

Yesterday was my birthday and my mom bought me balloons knowing I'm severely allergic to latex. I couldn't even come in the house. She had to open the door for me since they were tied to the railings on my porch. Nice gesture....but I don't like balloons either. I know how you feel OP. Happy birthday anyway!

How did your mum think that was a good idea?

my mom thought that because it was outside the house that I would be okay. I haven't broken out yet. especially since 3 of the 6 balloons she bought popped because it was raining and sort of chilly yesterday.

Mylar balloons would have been a good alternative for your mother to try. Maybe next time.

Maybe it's not that they were afraid. It's just that they woke up walked out of their room and saw that. I would have been like OH SHIT.

Not used to your family being nice to you, or just working on your circus act?
