Today, I asked my grandmother to hem my prom dress for me. I'm her oldest granddaughter so I thought she'd be happy to do it. She said no. Her occupation is a seamstress. FML

Family heirloom

By Anonymous - 27/01/2021 02:01

Today, I got the dress I gave to a tailor to replace a broken zipper back. When I tried it on, I discovered that they’d cut at least 4 inches of fabric, and being skinny, there’s no way I can ever fit into it. It’s from the 1950’s, inherited from my late grandma, who in turn inherited it from her aunt. FML

Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML

Ripper

Today, at work, the seat of my pants ripped open. A coworker lent me a pair of his back-up jeans, and then those ripped in the crotch. FML

Today, I found out that my mother intentionally donated the quilt that I had made for her, because, "It didn't match anything". That was $70 worth of fabric and 7 and a half weeks spent on that handiwork of mine. FML

Mopping mad

Today, my brand-obsessed sister bought $200 shorts. She was cutting the tag off of them in the kitchen and left them on the counter. I went into the kitchen, poured me some coke, and spilled it all over the counter. I thought the shorts were a rag. FML

Maybe now you can reflect on how absurd it is to spend $300 on Jeans that are ripped, simply because they are "trendy"...

Oh yeah, another thing, you could get a pretty damn decent guitar/bass/amp for that price too, yet you spend it on something made of cheap fabric? Wow.

You ABSOLUTELY deserved it because: 1. You paid $300 for JEANS?!?!? 2. You paid $300 for RIPPED jeans?!?!?!!!!!!!1 3. You don't appreciate your gramma's kindness. You're a spoiled, idiotic brat, congratulations!

Who cares. If someone has 300 dollars to spend on jeans if they LIKE them, why not let them? It's not hurting any of you in any way. Jeeze you people are so harsh.

i hope that in a nice twist, you acquire a huge gash that needs stitches and your grandma just laughs at you for your foolish new trend. Pompous ass.

Damn... with $300 I can make the payment on my car and fill 'er up with gas too! I've got some tired old work jeans that are torn up pretty bad. I'll sell them to you for $50. It's a steal, really.

That is precious. Be happy your grandma loves you. Some people wish they had family to do nice things for them.

Depending on how she patched them, they probably look better anyway. I think it is fml worthy, but I think it is totally stupid to pay $300 for blue jeans. My prom dress wasn't even $300 dollars.

I got lots of "vintage" stuff thats worth WAY more than $300 if you wanna buy it off of me. Good deals, I promise

I own like 10 pairs of jeans, and I don't think they add up to $300.
