Today, my little sister came home crying because someone had shown her a video about the Slender Man. Trying to calm her down, I explained to her that he wasn't real, just like Santa Claus. She looked up at me and said "Santa's not real?" It's been 3 hours, and she hasn't stopped crying. FML

Today, I was at lunch with my mom and we were talking about how to tell my brother that Santa Claus isn't real. After we finished our conversation, I heard someone crying. Little did I know, two little kids and their parents were sitting in the booth behind me. FML

Today, my 8-year-old came home from school crying. Apparently her teacher told the whole class to write about how they felt when they learned that Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy weren't real. FML

Today, while my boyfriend and I were talking with his sister-in-law about a TV show, his 6-year-old nephew walked up just in time to hear how Santa killed the protagonist's parents. I've never seen such a heartbroken face in my life, and now he won't stop asking if Santa kills people. FML

Today, I was on the phone with my friend, when my four year old nephew came in, asking who I was talking to. I told him it was Santa Claus, so he insisted on talking to him. I handed over the phone and I hear, "Santa is fake. Grow up." I spent the next two hours with a screaming child proving Santa exists. FML

Today, my daughter told my son that Santa is not real. Of course, being a child, he started to cry. My only problem is, my son is 11 and my daughter is 6. FML

Today, my fifteen year-old son decided to tell his little five year-old sister that Santa isn't real. She now refuses to talk to any of us and thinks "her whole life is a lie". FML

Today, my daughter ran up to an old man with a white beard and a red sweater because she thought he might be Santa. He was a homeless dude, drunk at 9 in the morning. He told her to either give him money or f**k off, then screamed at her that "Santa’s not real, grow up r*tard." She’s still crying FML

Today, I went to a Christmas-themed amusement park with my 21-year-old autistic sister who adores Christmas. She took her picture with Santa and started crying happy tears. Then Santa asked her loudly, "Aren't you beyond old enough to know I'm not real?" Vacation ruined. FML

Today, I took my 5-year old daughter to get a photo taken with Santa, when she asked the dreaded question of why this Santa looked different from one at the other store. Before I could placate her, some cunt of a kid yelled, "Because he's not real, dumbass!" FML

Today, my mom mentioned that she doesn’t think she’s gonna let my baby sister believe in Santa. When I mentioned that I believed in Santa growing up, she casually replied with, "Yeah, well you were slow." FML

Oh great. First she gets the shit scared out of her, and then you ruin her childhood. Why don't you just tell her there's no Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy and get it over with.

Slenderman is a made up creature said to be a man that is abnormally tall and thin with no face and tentacles. His story is that he supposedly puts little children in a trans, brings them into the woods, and murders them. He was created for a contest on the Somethingawful form I believe is the name. However, now many people like to speculate an say that the Slenderman is real. The whole Slenderman story is quite scary and makes a great scary campfire story. It is also a rather enjoyable game to play (Slender). :D Slenderman FTW!!!!!!

He's been around for quite a while and in his story he has apparently been around for hundreds of years...

Oh my gosh, I'm scared to go to my car at night because of the Slender Man. Even though he isn't real, that game scared me too much for my own good!

I can't even play the game because I'm scared he's gonna appear and I'll scream like a little baby.

I can only play it if other people around me... other than that I'm a wimp. Though I found its not as scary if you play the Heeyyaayyaaaa song with Heman :)

The reason why you are probably only recently heard about him is because of the Slender game that just came up to the world and you probably heard people talking about it. But the story of slender has been around.

Your sister, in this innocent time of hers, has not yet learned the art of cognitive dissonance. Be assured, you will yet enjoy many years of her ignoring common sense.
