Today, it was my 17th birthday. My mom forgot and my best friend is out of town. The highlight of my day? The guy at McDonald's slipped an extra apple pie in my bag. FML

Today, for my birthday, I got a Big Mac. FML
Today, it's my 18th birthday. Last month was my best friend's 18th birthday. She spent the night with me, and the next morning, my mom and brother gathered in my room and sang "Happy Birthday" as they handed her pancakes with a candle on top. Today, I was woken up by screams to take the trash out. FML
Today, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. FML
Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I celebrated my birthday with my friend who has the same birthday by going out to dinner with a bunch of our friends. The waiter brought out a cake for my friend but not for me. No one noticed my exclusion. I sang happy birthday on my birthday. FML
Today, I turned 17. My parents completely forgot it was my birthday, and when I reminded them, my dad thought it was my 18th. He was ecstatic and mentioned that I can "finally get the hell out." FML
Today, I missed a call from my mom. It's my birthday, and glad she remembered, I called back to thank her. She was surprised when I brought up going out for dinner, and asked me what the occasion was. FML
Today, I found out I can't go to my best friend's birthday party. To cheer me up, my parents decided to take me and my brother to my favorite pizzeria for dinner. When I was ready and went downstairs, I discovered they left already. They forgot me. FML
Today, I walked into a restaurant with my parents to celebrate my Mom's birthday. They immediately got a kid's menu and crayons out for me. I'm 15. FML
Today, my mother bought me Mickey Mouse shaped burgers for my dinner. I'm 19. FML

How was the apple pie?

You do know that the price is the same for both one and two so they automattically give you two when you order one right?

So do you care about the birthdays of the other 16million people who celebrate it on the same day as you? It's only a birthday, it nothing special. Besides, women don't like to get old. YDI

everyone on here, she didn't ASK for your pity stories. quite frankly, half of these people don't give a crap. OP if I were you, I'd try to remind my mom. maybe she did it on purpose to make you think she forgot and surprise you tomorrow... and seriously all you FML commenters, quit crying about how on your birthday your mom forgot. or how you had to babysit your ****** cosuin. really, get over it like OP should. maybe her mom didn't have the money to get her a present the day of her b-day and is gonna surprise her like I said... -:D oh mah gahd! nowai!

My parents always forgot my birthday when I was a kid, and my birthday was a week exactly after my little sisters. It's not such a big deal, when you are older and birthdays get less important to you, you'll understand.

I'm sorry, but your own mother forgot your birthday as well as your entire family. Did you mother not click on when family members gave you birthday cards. There's a difference between your mother forgetting your birthday completely, I mean my mother knows the exact time I was born, never mind the date, and your mother just not doing anything for your birthday. When you grow up birthdays just aren't important, until you turn 18 here in england when from then on every birthday is a piss up.
