Today, my dad and a construction worker were having a long talk. I heard the door slam, and assumed that this worker had left. So I yelled out "Hey dad what were you talking about? Did you talk slowly so the idiot could understand?" Turns out my dad was the one who had walked out. FML

Today, my dad's boss called our house and I answered. He said, "Is your dad home?" I replied, "I'll go check." I put the phone on mute and asked my dad if he wanted to talk to his boss. My dad says, "Does that asshole not have a life?" Turns out the phone wasn't on mute, it was on speaker. FML

Today, I got back home from work and casually asked my dad, "What's up?" He casually replied, "Wishing I'd had a son instead." and stared glassy-eyed at me until I left the room. FML

Today, my dad walked in on me using the bathroom. After rushing out, he yelled at me through the door for not locking it. He made up the "no locking the doors inside the house" rule. FML

Today, I was talking to one of my supervisors at my new job. He asked if I knew a professor at the school I recently graduated from, and I decided to babble on about how shitty of a professor he was and how much I loathed his class. He then looked at me and said, "That's my dad." FML

Great talk, Dad

Today, I was sitting in my room when my dad walked in to talk. He said I'm not the son he'd hoped for, and that he'd been let down as a father. He said I should change the way I am so that he could love me more. It was the longest conversation I've had with my dad in years. FML

Today, my dad sat me down for a talk. After the talk, he wasn't my dad anymore. FML

Today, I came home at noon from a long night out. I was surprised to see a woman I didn't recognize standing in my living room in a brown dress and heels. As I walked up to the door and knocked to be let in, the woman whipped around and I figured out who it was. My dad. FML

Today, I was fixing something for a guy at a steel manufacturing company. His employees told me that their boss can't hear properly, so I'd have to be loud when talking to him. When I'd finished, he asked me if I normally talked like that, or if there was something wrong with me. FML

Today, at my work in a call centre, a man called up on a very quiet line to report a car accident on his father's behalf because his father was deaf. I asked him to ask his dad if he was OK after the accident. I'd misheard him and he had said "dead", not "deaf". He started crying. FML

That's why you don't call random people an idiot, idiot.

You really deserved it. What do you gain in assuming that construction workers are stupid?

Look, everyone has a daddy complex. Leave him alone, may be he would like to keep his dad on that pedistool.

To everyone who has a problem with the OP calling the guy an idiot, guess what? The construction worker probably IS an idiot and WAS being a dick to the dad. You have no back story to support anything, thus you jump to what you want to hear and believe, that the OP is just a douche. Get over it, the asshole probably deserved worse.

haha wow OP you're a ****. A+ you're also really stupid because you should have looked to make sure it was your dad there and not the "idiot" construction worker. Pot....kettle.

Lol #23 you are a huge moron. Whether or not the construction worker was being rude or anything, it still makes the OP a douche bag for calling him an idiot like that and acting like they are better than he is. Btw, good job at being a hypocrite there. You have no backstory, yet you are saying the guy was an idiot and deserved worse? Try thinking before you type something, dumbass.

So, snowyeasterner, I think you win the idiot prize for not being able to comprehend what someone is writing. I was defending the father for having a thick accent. Thumbs up to you :)
