I hate it when people say "FML"

and when they say it, it usually isn't even over something terrible. "I ran out of toothpaste. FML." or " I'm starting P90X. FML." Sorry, random rant, but it really annoys the crap out of me.

  • Help? What dos FML mean?

  • I don't even know what it means. I see it all the time and I'm totally clueless.

  • F*** my life.

     

    Edit: not to be confused with FMLA discussed on the Bump. This is mostly Facebook people.

    Well then... yes that is a little extreme!

  • I'm with you!  It's kind of an ungrateful thing to say, in my opinion...  Unless something bad is *really* going on, then I'm pretty darn blessed!  
  • Have you heard anyone say it in real life, or just in a post?  I knew a girl in high school who used to say "LOL" or "J/K" out loud... I wanted to punch her in the face.

  • I never knew what it meant and always wondered! I agree that it's pretty dramatic, especially if they say it over something so small!

    Unfortunately I have heard people say it out loud. It's right up there with LOL and J/K. I just don't get it.

  • I hate that, too!  I feel like those people are attention seekers and want people to feel sorry for them.

    Ditto!Yes

  • I've never heard someone say "F-M-L" before... just "f*ck my life".

    Are you saying you've heard people say the abbreviation?  That's stupid.

  • It's just a joke ... people say it to be funny. Lighten up.

    It's an annoying joke.

  • It's just meant to be a funny..haha..joke.

    If you go to fmylife.com (assuming you already know about this site?) then they have some pretty funny ones. And not so lame like "I ran out of toothpaste."

  • I've said it a few times on FB. Recently was the day that we got mine and Aidan's hospital bills and a package from Similac.

    Ignore it? Just like those who start shi* on here to get attention, we ignore them and move on. Something so simple as to say FML really bugs the crap out of you just seems really silly Stick out tongue

     

  • Really? What qualifies something to be serious enough to merit an "FML"? Last week at work, I was making a pb&j, and dropped the bread peanut butter side-down on the carpet. I said "Eff my life", and even my boss laughed. No good?
  • I say fvck my life on a daily basis. I didn't know it annoyed people. Now I have to make it a point to say it more often.

  • Wow. Didn't know it was a crime to be annoyed. I assume, for those posters who find it stupid that I get annoyed by FML posts and utterances, that you don't get annoyed by anything. Good for you!
