Today, my parents told me they wouldn't be able to afford my senior portraits. That was fine with me, until I found some expensive professional photos in the mail. Of our dog. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I noticed my parents replaced my senior picture that hung on our living room wall with a painted one. Of our German Shepherd. FML
Today, I got my nails, hair, and makeup professionally done for prom. My dad got his camera out, and I presumed he was taking pictures of my date and me. When I looked at the pictures later, they were all of the dog. FML
Today, my mother informed me that she sold my dog to pay off some bills. FML
Today, my dad and his new wife got their wedding pictures done. Out of over 150 pictures, I was only in one. The family dog was in all of them. In the one picture of me, I was holding the dog's leash while he took a dump. FML
Today, I had to give up going to a therapist because it was too expensive and my parents couldn't afford it. Meanwhile, a girl in my class is getting a therapist for her dog. FML
Today, I got my graduation photos back. I'd sent them to a friend for touching up, but unfortunately we had a major argument recently. I guess that's why in the photos I've been photoshopped out and replaced with a goat. FML
Today, I was taking out the trash and I came upon a bill from a veterinary hospital. It was for $50 and it was a bill to put my dog down. My Dad said my dog was missing and I put hundreds of signs around the city. FML
Today, we got our family pictures back from the printers. I complained to my mom about the ones she picked. "Oh don't worry," she said. "I had them photoshop out your gut." I was talking about my smile. FML
Today, I came back from college and visited my parents house. There was a new family portrait hung over the mantel of my parents and 2 sisters. My mom had always wanted one but always postponed it. It was dated the day after I left for college. FML
Today, I called my mother to check up on her. Lately, she's been having some financial problems, so last week I sent her my last $100 to help her out until her next paycheck. She used the money to euthanize the family dog. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Tell them you hope when it comes time for the dog to pick out their nursing home, that it doesn't choose the pound.

I LMFAO at this one. HILARIOUS! But sorry OP. I think they probably ordered the dog pix A WHILE before they found out about your senior photos, because professional photos usually come in the mail a month or two after theyre taken, so its possible you parents had enough money a few months ago and didnt really know or think about your senior photos.

And you don't have a part-time job as a senior to pay for your own photos? I did and had to buy my class ring as well.

Just because you worked/paid for your own doesn't mean everyone has that opportunity.

if I were you, I would rip those dog pics to pieces, gather my parents, throw the pieces in their faces, and yell "WE CAN'T AFFORD MY SENIOR PICS BUT YOU CAN AFFORD POINTLESS PICS OF OUR DOG?!?!
