Today, my parents decided they won't pay for college because of a Fox News story that said higher education "makes you liberal." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out why my parents have been trying to convince me not to go to college this year. I also found out where the $20,000 they just spent on landscaping came from. My college fund. Which is now $0. FML
Today, my parents threatened to take away my college funds. Why? Because I complained about my 10 pm curfew during break as a freshman in college. FML
Today, after 25 years of marriage, my parents decided to get a very nasty and extremely expensive divorce. Using my college tuition to pay for it. FML
Today, I discovered that when my parents offered to help me pay for college, what they really meant is they would get the forms for me to apply for student loans. FML
Today, I was offered a job that pays far more than I expected, being a high school senior. My parents decided they aren't letting me take the job, saying I should enjoy my childhood. They're also not paying for my college, which is why I was looking for work in the first place. FML
Today, I was accepted to college and received a scholarship equal to almost half the tuition. After sharing this news with my parents, I spent the next 35 minutes getting yelled at about how I wasn't allowed to go there because my boyfriend might go there. FML
Today, I finally got the nerve to tell my parents that I'm no longer going to pay them a flat percent of my salary, but only what they need to cover my expenses. Their response: "Better find a place of your own then, you freeloading bastard." FML
Today, I found out that not only does my sister consider Fox News "reliable" but her husband has been buying Trump merchandise. They owe me $1,900 but they're literally giving a millionaire money instead of me. FML
Today, I told my conservative friends over dinner that I was a bit of a liberal. They then went off on me about how liberals are lazy, stupid, and a financial burden on society. I was the only employed person at the table with a college degree and not living with my parents. FML
Today, I discovered my parents have spent my college fund because "2012 will happen" before I graduate. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Going to college doesn't make you liberal, it makes you smarter and more prepared in the world. Your parents are really ignorant

Fox are idiots, they just implied that Liberal people are highly educated. They're right for once; their right wing nazi-fest is for retards.

And why has he had to spend more than Bush? Just because Obama has been President while additional money has flowed out of the government's veins doesn't mean he's the one who nicked that artery. You want to see where the original incision was made? Check out the previous administration and the multitude of poor decisions they made on our behalf.

I truly hope that most of you die through your own retarded ways. It makes me feel so bad that such dip ***** exist in this country. Heck maybe I should just move to Canada, get away from the idiots who listen to every little thing they hear. Seriously do some bloody research, fox news shouldn't even be allowed to consider what they do as news. If it's true that fox says you're liberal for taking higher education it's because they want you dumbasses to stay stupid so they can manipulate you in any way they feel.

At least Obama isn't afraid to do his job and tell all the idiots in office to quit dinking around and actually do their job for once.

You must be really uninformed if you think Obama personally raised the unemployment rate himself. No, corporations outsourcing jobs overseas for cheaper labor are causing the unemployment rate to rise. They close down plants in the USA and cause Americans to lose their jobs just so that the companies can maximize profit by having their products made by people in other countries who are willing to work for almost nothing. All the people who are hiring illegal immigrants because they work for less than Americans are contributing to our unemployment rate too. Please learn something about the economy. Republicans: They will defend fetuses to the death but have no problem with children dying because of lack of health insurance.

to #237 - that's just nasty. surely there are other things you can find to relate to arguing on the internet, other than making fun of the special olympics. you don't have to stoop that low.
