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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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.

People that complain about gas money when you are going less than 100 miles suck at life anyway. I think this your fault for having shitty friends.

#30: I am aware that the dollar sign goes before the number. I just like it better when it's after...since this isn't a formal document or anything of that sort. It just looks cooler and it's unique. I'm sorry I'm not a conformist...lol :) :| :(

So? Why should he? He drove, right? That's why he made you split yours. Why should he split his, then?

gave you a YDI for not standing up for yourself and demanding the $10 back. I could understand if he asked for gas money for a long road trip or if you called and specifically asked to be taken somewhere, but this sounds like the two of you were hanging out anyway.

He should've just given you back the $10 you gave him from what you won, and kept his $500. That would've been fair.

what a dick. but, if you won $500, would you split it with your friends if they didn't need it? although, i agree that he shouldn't have charged you THAT much for gas. maybe you can leech this money off him by asking him to buy various things for you :P

What #10 said. You need better taste in friends.

That's not really someone you can call a friend. He could have least of returned the $10 to you. Would he have charged you gas money had you not won in the first place? Friends do things for one another without tallying. >.
