Today, it was my birthday. Some 17 year-olds will receive cars as presents from their parents. Mine, however, booked me a plot in the local graveyard. FML

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, was my 16th birthday and I was supposed to be surprised with a new car. I have overheard my parents talking about bringing it home tonight while I was at a friend's house. We snuck back to my house to see them bring my car home. All I saw was my Dad crash my new car into a street lamp. FML

I don't know any parents that get their kids cars... For my 17th, I got a bottle of nail polish. So FYL because I understand... But I guess you shouldn't really expect anything at all, that's your problem.

If you become goth you can hang out there as you ponder the meaninglessness (if that's even a word) of life like the best nihilists. No one can tell you to get off of the site because it's your own grave.
