Today, I got a birthday card in the mail from my aunt. I got all excited when I saw a cheque inside, but the cheque was addressed to the wrong name. Not only did my own aunt forget my name, I couldn't even bank the $60. FML
I agree, your life sucks (15280) - you totally deserved it (1143)

Well done, my deepest congratulations go out to you *YAWN*
Incidentally, YDI for getting excited about 60 fucking dollars. What are you, TWELVE? Were you planning to buy up the world's candy stocks, or go rent out a cheap whore for the evening?
(+3)Seriously?!
$60 is a help. It can get you groceries, a tank of gas.
I am grateful for the $50 my aunt gives me every Christmas. As a medical student, it means I can actually enjoy not forgoing something I wanted because I kind of need to pay for food to eat every now and then.
Besides, it'll also get you a new pair of Converse, for example. You can use it to buy a gift for someone, or put it towards something you want.
Some of us know the value of a dollar, and don't want to live with debts.

Fuck that shit *draws her Desert Eagle and cracks a shot off straight into Pleb's skull* FUCK, RICOCHET! That's some thick "brain"-armour.
(-1)wow KaySL is such a dick... his/her comments arent even funny or amusing.. They are more like annoying and maybe he/she should keep them to himself/herself.. because 60 bucks can help alot.

Who says they're supposed to be amusing?! :O!
Also, read up a bit, it's called sarcasm. But at this rate it'll soon degenerate into a sissy slapfest between you and some even bigger retard whilst I munch popcorn :D
(+1)Maybe you should think of another way to express your so called sarcasm.
A way that doesn't annoy people and make them think that you're a dumb b*tch trying to be clever (which I have a feeling you probably are).
Sigh, I feel sad for you :(.

Do I tell you how to spend your time or express yourself? No? Ah!
And I'm annoying nobody; you're choosing to get all angsty over a few words. And if you think I'm trying to be at all clever, then perhaps you should turn your pity inwards? For you clearly need to tone down the assumptions and judgementalism. Just saying!
(0)So what about your original comment was supposed to indicate sarcasm?
I mean, obviously the part about buying up candy stocks was a joke, but I don't get how the first part was supposed to be sarcastic. It actually did just look like you being an incredible bitch.

(0)You really should be able to see where the sarcasm went, dear friend; after all, you're taking such great offence at an irreverent comment. Perhaps you don't quite understand anything but the most basic forms of sarcasm? Maybe you're just looking for a fight with random people online. Either way, you're clearly not looking to understand anything, you just feel like having a go, so yeah... If you think having a go at me affects me in the least, you're very sorely mistaken, so perhaps both our time could be better spent elsewhere, rather than having a bitchfight.
(+2)Kay, it is quite hard to detect sarcasm through text.
#26 - On 12/04/2009 at 4:47pm by eighty_five
(+1)LMAO I AGREE!! It is hard to detect sarcasm in text
#27 - On 12/04/2009 at 4:50pm by Xrandomkrisx
(+2)I mean...it obviously affects you since you bothered to give me a response.
If it didn't affect you, why did you see a need to do anything other than ignore me?
#29 - On 12/04/2009 at 5:01pm by capthavoc123
(-2)I don't expect anyone except a certain few people here to get the sarcasm part :P But I don't expect people to spazz out over some facetious remarks lol
And I meant it doesn't affect me as in it doesn't really do anything other than bounce right off me. I bother to respond because quite frankly it's a slow night and I'm bored. Though I figured I'd try to "enlighten" you as to my meaning in the comments. I mean enlighten in a non-patronising way. I suppose "explain" may be a better choice.
My outlandish/outrageous comments are purely non-aggressive, despite what most will probably assume. I'm actually a pretty sane person, really :P
(0)The sarcasm was obvious to me (presumably because it's my default setting), but it was not the best example of sarcasm in text I've ever seen.
#35 - On 12/04/2009 at 5:59pm by plethora
(-2)I never made a claim to be the best sarcastic fuck in existence. Hell, you're probably funnier and more of a sarcastic bitch than me =)
(-2)Yeah No one cares if your first and all you did was just waste your life typing 2 words.
But OP that does suck... $60 I'snt even a lot
so why would you want it?And plus why would you try banking it?
It doesnt make sense
#43 - On 12/04/2009 at 10:04pm by xxxNataliexxx
(-2)agreed!
that's exactly what i was thinking, but i couldn't think of the right way to put it.
:)

(+2)$60? who WOULDN'T get excited by that? whoever says that $60 is nothing, think about it. there are people in America who used to make millions, and barely even make $100K a year now.
(0)KaySL, get a life. The sarcasm in your comment doesn't make the comment any fucking less bitchier.
"Incidentally, YDI for getting excited about 60 fucking dollars. What are you, TWELVE? Were you planning to buy up the world's candy stocks, or go rent out a cheap whore for the evening?"
It was only the second part that was sarcastic, so the first part about getting excited over $60 is still pretty fucked up. $60 is a lot of money - enough to feed a starving child for a month. So stop being a fucking whore and stfu.
(-2)Evidently, you're incapable of READING, otherwise you'd have at least considered doing as recommended and just shrugging it off. But I see you're like half the people on this site, the ones ruining it by getting all self-righteous with the weakest provocation. In other words, all you want to do is randomly have a bitch at people, so I'll just refrain from responding to your equally very bitchy and very pointless comments, how's that? =)
(0)I don't think you understood. Even if this person does know the "value of a dollar," they can't cash the check with the wrong name on it. The bank would be pretty suspicious about someone whose name on their id and check don't match.
(0)okay at first I wasn't gnna say anything but..rlly is fml your life??!! stop commenting an dnt let little things bother u. and it's hard to tell if one is serious or sarcastic when they r typing
(0)this got in, but my FML about my drunk freind crashing my dads motercycle into a tree, and the my friend blamed it on me WTF?
#82 - On 03/26/2010 at 4:40pm by ilovefatcats
(0)Your sarcasm isn't funny. Stop trying to sound so smart. Are you fucking five years old? If someone insults you, you should fucking know that you should ignore them. Have a go? Are you shitting me? This is not preschool it's kinda, I don't know... FML? Yeah. So, you're the one trying to start a fight by saying that everyone wants to start a fight with you. Grow. The. Fuck. Up, KaySL thanx. Maybe next time you won't go on and on like a fucking retard. :D
(-1)For some people, $60 can mean the difference between having groceries to eat and gas in the car for a week versus not. As a struggling student in my early 20's so broke I was wearing shoes with holes in the sole and eating Ramen every night, receiving $60 for my birthday would have been a huge blessing. I understand the OP's dismay at not being able to cash the check.

(0)can you read? the op is from australia. they spell things different in different parts of the world.
(0)Before you correct others, adress your own spelling mistakes.
cheque: You should've capitalize the "C", it's the beginning of your sentence.
its: If you're an American and confuse the words "it's" and "its" you're an idiot. That said, it's supposed to be "it's."
You also forgot a full stop.
(+1)Please excuse Brad's stupidity. Not all of us Americans are inconsiderate dickheads.

Oh, how highly original and amusing, Pleb. I'm rocked to the spiritual core by your razor-sharp wit *YAWN* That's just about the only response you'll win from me for a while, little man.
(0)Two options:
1) "Hey Auntie , you must've stuck the wrong cheque in the envelope. Whoop! Could you write me a new one?"
2) Endorse the back of the cheque with the name she put on. As long as your Aunt doesn't call the bank claiming fraud, you should be fine. ;)
Hardly the end of the world, or a FML moment.
(0)I have a long name & family even misspell it, so I go by a nickname.
I've had family write checks out to my real name & misspell it.
I've had family write checks out to my nickname.
You have to endorse the check first with the name they wrote.
-THEN- below it you have to endorse it again with your actual name.
This lets the bank know that there was a mistake, but puts your real name on it too.
#23 - On 12/04/2009 at 4:13pm by cheerthefkupism
(0)welcome to my world! my own family (like aunts and uncles) cant get my name spelled right...*sigh* but just ask if she can write another one?
#33 - On 12/04/2009 at 5:48pm by yeahreally
(0)So it's spelt cheque in Australia. Interesting. It's check over here. Regardless, there's always one thing that we all can understand and that's Beer. So lets all have a pint and be happy.
#34 - On 12/04/2009 at 5:55pm by hercules268
(0)Oh man, I wish I was like KaySL. I wish I could belittle people as much as KaySL can. I wish I could say "sissy slapfest" and still respond to all the other "sissy slapfest" comments. I got the sarcasm part, so you can hold off on telling me it was sarcasm. The FML annoyed me, but you've annoyed me even more. ;D Oh if you didn't catch that, that smiley face, yeah it was sarcasm.

You'd be forgetting the one pesky fact that is "I'm not taking myself seriously, unlike quite a few other people around here today". When you realise that, maybe you'll be less annoyed by a few of my words, and be just plain indifferent...
Honestly, some people('s egos) are so sensitive, it's a wonder they're male.
(-2)LaLaJoy, the "comment" was directed at me, so I responded to it. Is it so unusual for you to see someone stand up for themselves like that? Just because I'm an easy target (oh, 2 or 3 other people with similar lack of backbone are doing it, I may as well too) doesn't mean I'm going to cower out. Good day.
(-2)so you don't get $60 bucks that wasn't even yours too begin with? that's not even that much money. stop being a whiny bitch
#40 - On 12/04/2009 at 7:27pm by redshortsx
(0)Seriously KaySL? Must you be an incredible bitch on everyones posts? Maybe that money isn't much to you but it can mean a lot to other people, have you ever considered that? Please stop being so ignorant and negative and learn some manners, thank you.
(+3)lol Kay's posts are so embarrassing to read.. trying to sound all smart and stuff. Try looking at its profile too
(+2)I like how Kay kept throwing out the word sarcasm as if their posts were remotely amusing let alone actually sarcastic.
#53 - On 12/05/2009 at 12:48am by waterynuggets
(+1)ugh this happens to me all the time! the bank now knows me and lets it slide. sorry man
#52 - On 12/05/2009 at 12:27am by smiggles13
(0)That'd be kind of pointless. I'm not terrified of being ganged up on as you are. Don't be such imbeciles with your responding to me, and you'll see a hell of a lot fewer posts by me.
(0)Who said i was afraid of being ganged up on? And if you never posted anything, you would see a hell of a lot fewer posts by everyone else
(-2)The difference is, I don't take the rest of you seriously, and aren't desperate to shut you up, unlike you with me.
(+3)ehh. I can't believe I read all these fucking comments. btw Kay you need to take a chill pill. learn to stop being such a drama queen.
(0)i think that seriously sucks. especially if she might've done it on purpose knowing that you wouldn't be able to cash the check/cheque.
#60 - On 12/05/2009 at 4:02am by pinkkloverr
(0)OP, just tell your aunt she got your name wrong; if she's anywhere near nice, she'll send you another one. If she isn't, then tell her to stop being such a bitch.
#61 - On 12/05/2009 at 4:50am by peacockfeather
(0)Wrong NAME doesn't mean wrong ADDRESS. If someone put your address on an envelope but put the name as 'Lady Gaga', you'd still get the letter.
(+2)what the hell is up with the negative comments - who does it benenfit, you come out sounding like a heartless cruel cold and calculated masochist, which i'm sure everyone wants to be your friend, and idiots like me, get pissed off enough to tell you something you don't hear often enough, or too many times, shut up if you can't say anything humane. what is the point other than to piss people off. why are you taking up necessary air,
#67 - On 12/05/2009 at 3:14pm by jesonpiano
(0)its called a check not a cheque you fucking douche
#76 - On 12/09/2009 at 9:27pm by lawllercoasters
(0)You're the douche for not being aware of other spellings. If I went around calling people a douche every time I saw the word 'color', I'd get called far worse than that. Jeez.
(0)@ lawllercoasters
Not everyone on the planet lives in America you fucking loser, if you can read it says the OP is from Australia, therefore the spelling is 'cheque'
(0)How do you spell check wrong? I'm 13 and I know how to spell check.
