Today, my mum called and told me she had bought me a new, white dish washer for my apartment because it doesn't have one. I was SO excited and told her I'd pay her back as soon as I could. I only had to pay her $1.25. She bought me a sponge. FML

Same thing different taste

The road to hell is paved with good intentions

Today, I did the dishes to make my parents happy, even though it's my brother's chore. My mom's fancy new Yeti cup was among the dirty dishes, which also has a Bluetooth speaker on the bottom. I didn't know this, and now the Bluetooth speaker is now ruined, mom and dad are furious, and I apparently have to buy a new one. FML

Why is it that parents think it's so damn funny to trick their kids into thinking they bought them a large gift when they actually bought them something small? Doesn't sound like anything but a good way to get your kid to resent the hell out of you, if you ask me. And no, I'm not saying kids ought to expect any large gifts from their parents, but I still think it's entirely unnecessary to trick your child into thinking they're getting something they're not.

Because, genius, she was obviously expecting more than a sponge. The humour is in the disappointment, laughing at others misfortune. Which i'd like to point out, is the whole point of this website. How is it their fault if you don't understand that?

Yeah but since she had to pay it back, and it's not what she wanted and it was a mean trick to play on her, why would she be grateful?

I don't mean to sound racist, but was the sponge white or was she refering to you, if you are white, as a dish washer? I've never seen a white sponge before either.

You don't get out much do you? Sponges come in all sorts of colours.
