I'm not quite sure where I'm supposed to offer an explanation of why this article matters, but here goes: Fmylife is extremely popular among college-age students (and others, I'm sure) and as I've found, has recently been highly trafficked. I'm fairly certain that a lot of people are probably Googling Fmylife, visiting the site, but wondering how it got started, who made it, etc. I don't personally know that much about its origins, but by making a Wikipedia page, I think that people will contribute and eventually it'll get sorted out. rhs ( talk) 09:16, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
While granted, FML has garnered a level of traffic and media attention that has warranted the creation of wikipedia articles for many other websites and internet memes, this site is only the latest in an expanding number of sympathy/empathy-centered web communities (e.g: PostSecret and Group Hug. Would it not be more efficient to merge FML, along with the aforementioned, and any other uniquely-featured websites falling under the umbrella of "pity-centric" into one article concerning this emerging genre of web entertainment? I think the CONCEPT of FML, etc, has substantial notability, whereas the sites themselves are more a 'flash in the pan' sort of thing. Your thoughts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.193.15.53 ( talk) 22:03, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
I can definitely see that. This site has only been around for about a year and it really hasn't been all that popular until pretty recently. If this site maintains it's current level of traffic then it definitely warrants its own article, but as it stands right now we don't know that this site is going to remain relevant for very long.-- DavidFuzznut ( talk) 19:47, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
I was bold, if you want to be a dick and remove it for notability / lists, then please consider that

Has anyone else noticed that the site's been censored lately? The 'sex' category is now 'intimacy,' and the old slogan, which was something along the lines of "My life sucks but I don't give a f***" is now "Get the guts to spill the beans." Anyone know what this is all about? 98.234.116.17 ( talk) 22:31, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
Regarding the above: Whether or not the complaints regarding site censorship are warranted, I wouldn't say a few changes to the wording of certain on-site functions is really notable enough to be mentioned, especially given that half the motivation here seems to be a general sense of annoyance at how the site has supposedly "sold out" ( PsychoPop and ShiversTheNinja's comments). A Wikipedia article is not the place to vent frustrations, and technically neither is its talk page. KaySL ( talk) 18:10, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Is it really a blog? It actually is user-generated content that has no bloglike content to it, because nobody cares when a story happened, just the fun part of each entry. It's like textsfromlastnight.com or givesmehope.com and there should be a better term describing these user generated miniature story collection sites. -- Trickstar ( talk) 00:37, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
