Is Your Life Bad? Probably Not as Bad as Theirs.
Have you ever had a bad day and think "what could be worse than my day"? Well, I bet some of these below are worse than days that you've had.
One of my favorite websites that I kind of forgot about for a while is fmylife.com. This website features user submitted work where people briefly talk about a bad event that happened to them. The good thing about this website is that people laugh about and allow others to laugh about their bad life event. Laughter is the best medicine after all. I'm going to provide 10 FMLs below to show you a taste of their website. Please enjoy.
If I had to guess, some of the things that end up on this website probably aren't really events that happened, but FML has an experienced team and heavy moderation process. FML has been around for nearly a decade so their team has had plenty of time to work out content tweaks. FML also has a very heavy 2 step moderation process. The first step is peer moderation where the FML is submitted and is immediately on the website under the "Moderate the FMLs" tab. Peers can then vote yay or nay on whether they think the FML should be on the website. This peer moderation goes on for about a day, and if the FML meets a certain yay percentage after the peer moderation, the FML will be sent on to the FML team, where the FML team then decides if the FML should be on the website. Overall, the FML team takes their content quality very seriously and it is very hard to get on the website. I've submitted around 20 FMLs and none of them have made it onto the website.
Whether you think these are too good too be true or not, these are very funny. Please comment what you think about these FMLs and feel free to explore this website on your own.
