Today, I won 20 dollars on a lotto scratch off. My friend, pissed, makes me split the money, saying it was collateral for the gas money used to get us there. He then used his 10 dollars on a scratch off, and won 500 dollars. The jackass wouldn't split it. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, to prove a point to my brother that playing the lotto isn't a sure thing. I got a $10 scratcher. Thinking I'd get nothing or maybe just another scratcher, I ended up winning a free scratcher plus $100. The second scratcher I got an additional $50. Now he's even more confident he'll win every time. FML
Today, I went to get a scratch off lottery ticket, and the dude in front of me got the same one I was going to get. He won 500 dollars. I got 2 bucks. FML
Today, I was gambling on pull tabs. My friend, never much of a gambler, asked to take one. I was confused but gave one to him anyway. I got precisely $0 from them. The tab I gave to my friend was a winner. How much was it worth, you ask? Six hundred dollars. I'm very happy for him, but… seriously? FML
Today, while buying lottery tickets, I mixed up "jackpot" and "scratch off" and asked for "$10 worth of jackoffs." FML
Today, I got a scratcher lottery ticket, scratched it in the store, and won $5,000! I screamed and danced around. The guy next to me shoved me over, yanked the ticket from my hands, and tore ass out the door. The cops couldn't find him. FML
Today, I drove 3 hours to the Capitol and back to cash my winning scratch ticket of $2000. When I got there, it was pointed out to me that it wasn't in fact a winning ticket. I'd already planned a weekend vacation at an adventure park the next state over. I’m flat broke and rent is due. FML
Today, my boyfriend came home, complaining about not having enough money for bills. He then pulled a stack of lottery tickets out of his bag, saying, "I hope one of these wins." FML
Today, I won $20 on a scratch ticket my grandma bought me. She wants it back. FML
Today, I went to a casino with $300 to spend and somehow walked out with $21K. When I told my wife, she sighed and moaned about how annoying taxes will be, and how I should have pushed my luck further. The house always wins, even when it loses. FML
Today, I won $50 on the lottery. On the subway home, I checked my pocket to see if the money was still there. A very professional man in a suit yelled, "Hey, that's mine!" I got several dirty glares. I'm such a pathetic wimp that I gave him the money. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

"friend"? **** that. he could have given you SOMETHING... $500 is enough to hand at least $50 over... unless he was in dire need for that financially.

What a douche. Somebody who throws some shitty hissyfits over ten bucks is the kind of asshole I would distance myself from immediately.

It's money he didn't have before, so really giving you $250 isn't that unreasonable. He wouldn't have anything if you hadn't given him the $10 in the first place. He should have at least given you something, or treated you to lunch. He really isn't that great of a friend, given what everybody else is saying about how he whined about $10.

Dude, he bought the thing with some of YOUR winnings - I would hit the roof over that part alone, even without stopping to think over the hypocrisy and overall shittiness of this dickwad you call a friend. He should have given you SOMETHING. Hell, least he could do was give you your ten back! Anyway, if he was having so much trouble paying for petrol, he should be spending his cash at the station and not on ******* scratchies. Asswipe. ... Sorry. I had a 'best mate' who stooged me ******* hardcore when it came to cash. Touchy subject :P

what a ******* mooch. rob him. he is a terrible friend for bullying the ten dollars out of you, an idiot for blowing that on scratch offs after being a prick to get the money, and a complete asshole for not giving you the initial 10 back that he took from you to win that. rob him.

If he's going to bitch about $10, what makes you think he's going to willingly hand over $250? =/ People are assholes. Now you know, and you'll know who to trust with money in the future.

If it actually cost 10 dollars in gas to get there, then you have no argument.

Pft, I would have MADE him at least give you the $10 back, heck $50 would be cool if he was a real friend.
