Today, at my graduation for my high school GED, my parents said they were getting all my family and my girlfriend together. So we all went out to a steakhouse down the road, everyone ordered steaks. Turns out the 'surprise' was me paying. I only got 50$ grad money, and the bill was 159.98. FML

Today, after months of living on five dollars a day for food in college, I found out my parents bought me an expensive meal plan and forgot to mention it. FML
Today, I wanted to take my girlfriend to a nice dinner before prom. Her parents followed her in, and joined us to "keep an eye on me." They interrupted all our conversations, ate an expensive meal, then got up and walked out when the waitress brought the $95 check, leaving me to pay for it. FML
Today, I took my friends out to an expensive restaurant for my birthday treat. They had arranged for a surprise birthday cake for me which I cut, very happily, while they chanted birthday wishes. When the bill came, I discovered I was supposed to pay for my great 'surprise' cake. FML
Today, I went to dinner with friends for my birthday. During the whole thing they insisted that we get whatever we wanted and celebrate, but when the check came, they all looked at me expectantly. I just bought my friends $150 of food for my birthday present. FML
Today, it was my college graduation ceremony. My parents didn’t come because they “forgot”, although I told them and had been reminding them for months. Last year was my little sister’s high school graduation. My parents wasted no time going to her ceremony and then took her out to dinner. FML
Today, I invited all of my friends to my graduation party, and even paid for them all to be there. They all didn’t show. FML
Today, I was delivering pizzas for my summer job. I got a big order to deliver for a fellow graduate's party. While I was being paid for the order my friend shows up and says "Don't pay him, his parents are rich, he can handle it." Then they shut the door and took off. The bill was $75. FML
Today, my friends took me out to the most expensive restaurant in town to celebrate my promotion, we ordered everything with expensive drinks too. They 'took a smoke break' and left me with the bill. FML
Today, I was working my shift at a fancy restaurant and it had been a really hard day. My parents came in to have dinner and surprise me. After paying, they left a note saying they would see me at home. It also said "By the way, no tip, because you stink at serving." FML
Today, my parents came to the restaurant I work at as a waiter. After, I picked up the check to realize they had left me a $500 tip! We split the tips among the employees so I only got $50 back but I was still psyched. When I got home they asked me if I had noticed that they used my credit card. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Ouch, that sucks for you man. But congrats on graduating. To everyone bashing GED's, what the cactus? How dare you put the OP down for making an effort to better himself and secure a brighter future? Jesus you guys are the biggest bunch of assholes I've ever had the misfortune of coming across. If everybody who ever wanted something for themself and made the decision to reach for it came across your negative asses, nobody would ever achieve anything in this world. And please, do us all a favor and learn to spell before commenting on other peoples' education.

Man- that's one hell of a surprise! FYL bro! And 230, it's OK- they're just still angry, bitter, and resentful of the fact that they have fancy college diplomas, and unfortunately aren't making sh*t because they don't have the initiative, creativity, or backbone to work hard and bring about innovation in an industry, or start a business. Thus, they are basically hanging their diplomas on the rotten, grease-splattered walls of a mcdonalds.

Dude, maybe you should have ACTUALLY graduated from High School. You didn't even deserve 50$, and maybe if you ever bought your parents supper, they wouldn't have to trick you into doing it. Welcome to the real world. Even mentally handicapped people can graduate from High School. You suck. **** your life up the ass.

For the record, I meant to change it and write this. But I ran out of time. Dude, maybe you should have ACTUALLY graduated from High School. I understand that he's trying to better himself, and blah blah blah, but seriously, stop complaining because you did it the half-assed way. I bet if you would have graduated, even a year late, that your parents would have gotten you something nice, because you made them proud, but you probably didn't. High School Graduation is really special for parents, and you took that from them. Good job though, regardless.

Unless you joined the millitary, YDI for dropping out of high school. On the other hand, FYL for having to buy your family dinner...
