Today, I went to a funeral for my coworker's father. While there, my dad's cell phone rang and he left to answer it. I turned to my brother and said, "I can't believe he brought his cell phone!" He whispered, "I can't believe he's got coverage. This is a dead zone!" I laughed loudly. At a funeral. FML

Tell your dad he'll meet his favorite character soon enough if he doesn't turn it back on.

Denial is a preliminary stage of grief, my friend. Hang tight for the long ride.

FYI, it takes a while for them to screen FMLs & actually post it on the forum, especially when it's in regards to TV show spoilers. His dad's favorite character may have been one of the huge deaths from a few episodes ago...

Today, while my boyfriend and I were on a picnic date out in the country, things got a little heated. When we were switching positions, he screamed and started running around. Turns out neither of us noticed the beehive in the tree above us until his dick got stung. FML

Today, I'm pretty sure my husband of 8 years is sleeping with the skank who's in the fire department with him. Out of nowhere, he started texting her and wouldn’t come home until 12:30 a.m. for a whole week. When I confronted him about it, he flipped out. Sadly, it won’t be the first marriage she’s ruined.

Today, at work, we were talking about how Google apparently has a room full of puppies for when their employees are feeling stressed.
