Today, I had dinner with my family in celebration of my 19th Birthday. I've been hinting that I need a new laptop for months now and I was sure my family had bought me one. I have got a pair of slipper socks. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, was my graduation party. My birthday was about a week ago so my parents combined the presents. I thought it would be something big so I hinted for a new TV. I got a snuggie. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and apparently my family forgot it. But one person didn't forget. My dog gave me a little present in my new shoes I bought for myself. FML
Today, I turned 18. My parents got me a pineapple and a pair of socks. I'm allergic to pineapple, and the socks are too small. FML
Today, I turned eighteen. Thinking I was going to get a big present from my parents on this special day, I eagerly unwrapped my present. They got me a bag of M and M's. Last year I got flannel bed sheets. FML
Today, the whole family came over to celebrate my 18th birthday. My grandfather bought me a giant mathematics book. Apparently, he didn't want my 16 year old sister to be "jealous", so he got her the new iPad. FML
Today, my parents bought my 11-year-old brother a MacBook for my birthday. FML
Today, it was my birthday. I have been heavily hinting that I want an iPhone. I opened my present from my parents and found an iPhone box. Ecstatic, I quickly opened it. Apparently, my parents thought it would be funny to wrap my present, a $10 iTunes gift card, in the box my Dad's iPhone came in. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My mom got me a gym membership and a bunch of clothes that are a few sizes too small. FML
Today, my parents gave me a sock and card for my eighteenth birthday. The card said, "Now that Dobby is free, get out." FML
Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me the present she'd bought for me. I said, joking, "I hope it's not a tie!" It was a tie. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well slipper socks ARE awesome. Fact is you are nineteen, expecting expensive birthday presents from your parents and being a little brat when you don't get one is very immature. You're an adult, go buy one yourself.

You're how old and you are whining that you didn't get something that you wanted? I don't feel bad for you at all, grow up!

No way. Your parents got ME slipper socks for MY birthday too!!! The cheap bastages. I've half a mind to move out of the attic!! Actually, it's because your dad got hooked on on-line **** so that's where all their money goes now.

I'm going to say that this borders upon being a FML. It really depends on the situation, though. If the laptop was going to be a major going away gift, as well as a birthday gift (i.e. she was going to college), and if there really was reason to suspect that she was actually going to get one (she said she hinted at it, and it seemed like her parents were going to get it for her, after all), then getting slipper socks is a MAJOR let down. Slipper socks are a pretty shitty gift regardless of everything else. That's not even a gift into which one puts some thought; it's basically a last minute idea.

Oh wah. You didn't get your shiny new laptop. Stop being spoiled and be thankful they got you dinner AND another present, especially in this economy.

The worst part of this FML is that the OP's name is "unloved" Your family freaking took you out to dinner and celebrated your birthday, how does that make you unloved?

Laptops are expensive. Maybe they couldn't afford a laptop. Just be thankful that they did something for you. I'm sure you're disappointed, but you could be a lot worse off. You have a home to live in, and a family who loves you. If you ned a laptop that bad, just get a job and save your money
