Today, I learned I was adopted and that my parents had died in a car accident when I was really young. My girlfriend was sitting next to me when I got the news, and several hours later broke up with me in a text stating, "I don't want to be with someone who doesn't have real parents." FML

Today, this girl I've been talking to texted me, saying she was going to visit. Trying to be sweet, I bought her $50 worth of chocolate and a cute card. Turns out she meant to send that text to her ex. Seems like the only thing I'll get from this relationship is diabetes. FML

Today, I went to the drug store to pick up a few things. After looking for condoms for 15 minutes, I asked the cashier where I could find them. She said they keep them behind the counter due to theft. She refused to sell them to me, because they're for customers who might actually need them. FML

I wonder if some of these parents realised they would turn in to utter cretins after they spawned or if they were cretins before the children?

Buy more candy, look at her and say "You choose to have the child so she is your responsibility. If she grew up to be selfish then she is just like her mother."

This is when you eat the candy in front of the toddler. (I have a toddler and I still have no patience for this stuff)

I would've looked at her like she's crazy - because she is - and grabbed another candy bar. Who cares if I don't want it right now, I'll stick it in the cupboard for later. Screw that lady.

I would have bought more and open one in front of the mother and eat it. In the end you aren't the parent and it's none of your concern. Don't know why people think they can tell others what to do with their own money.

Stare at the child, and keep piling on candy to your pile. It's more money than what you wanted to spend, but the look on the child's face as you do this is priceless
