Today, my little sister decided to color-in my favorite black-and-white comic book. It was worth over $200. When I told my mother, she said, "Oh that old thing? I thought it was a stupid coloring book you were too stupid to color." FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I discovered that my sister coloured in the pages of my college text books with Sharpie as "revenge." FML
Today, I got home from work to find my wife asleep in her easy chair with my two year old son asleep in a pile of torn-up paper. I soon found out it was my 1960s collection of a Superman comic book series that I inherited from my dad. It was worth well over $2,000. FML
Today, I was at work when my mother called. She gave me great news that she had finally cleaned out my room and all those "old and useless" books that I had in there. Those "useless" books that she had just trashed were all antiques and worth about $500 each. There were 27 books in there. FML
Today, my nine-year-old niece found my coloring book that features swear words. I took it away and hid it in a different spot. No less than an hour later, her younger sister found it. FML
Today, my sister trashed all our family's antique books, saying, "I don't want a thousand old books written by dead white men." They were family heirlooms from the 19th century, and the whole collection was worth thousands. FML
Today, I took my mom out to a fancy restaurant, and spent close to $300 on her Mother's Day present. Later, my little brother drew her a card with crayons on pink construction paper. She cried. He's 20 years-old. FML
Today, my sister attempted to get me to fund her daughter, my godchild's, birthday party. I told her I would give her 200 (which isn't much). Our mom "intervened" by cussing me out for being a cheap ass piece of shit. I was about to give her $200, which is A LOT in our currency when exchanged. FML
Today, I found a notebook my 12-year-old sister had been doodling in. Turns out the "doodles" were poems full of obscenities and descriptions of how she wanted to hurt herself. When I showed it to my mom, she accused me of writing the notebook myself to frame my sister. FML
Today, I caught my sister eating crayons. She's 19. FML
Today, I came home to find that my mother had sold all my valuable collector coins for cheap at a local shady pawn shop to buy herself a TV. The coins in question were worth enough to start a business. FML

Make her pay for it, one way or another. Even if you're a minor, if you purchased that, that's destruction of property.

The thing of it is that it doesn't matter that it was a comic worth $200. It wouldn't even matter if it WERE an old colouring book. What matters is that it wasn't hers to decide what to do with. It wasn't hers to assign a value to. It wasn't hers to take from you and give to someone else. When you move out, you'd better take everything you love. Leave nothing, because when you come home next you'll find that she's sold all of your childhood keepsakes and favourite toys at a garage sale, because she's arrogant enough to assume that what's in her house is hers to do with as she pleases, regardless of ownership. Posts like this make my blood boil.

Break something of hers, like a vase, and then say you thought it was a big cup she was too stupid to drink out of. Or just show her that we all collectively view her as the bitch she is. Honestly it doesn't matter if it's a 200 dollar comic or a crappy 5 cent bouncy ball. You disrespect your child's property why expect them to respect yours?

Some people never understand how important comic books are to people like us. Sigh.

I always wanted comic books as a kid. If anything I owned had value my dad would sell it for beer and hookers. Now I just can't afford it.

That just sucks. Feel so sorry for you :|

Absolutely cannot stand when parents feel that since you are their child they can do whatever they please with your things. My only reaction would have been murder, or burn her favorite item

I totally said that when I share this FML on Facebook

Explain. Make her pay for it. In $ then move on.

You can ask for a replacement or covering the costs. Just because it's your family doesn't in any way mean you have to take this kind of shit ;)

Completely insulting, not just for the lack of respect for other's people property but the way she spoke to you. I can't believe that your mother couldn't tell what your interest are.

I feel bad for you but that teaches you not to leave stuff like that out

Where in the post did it say OP left it out? It could have been in a bookshelf for all we know.
