Today, my step-brother went grocery shopping alone for the first time. He came home with Ramen and 14 bottles of chocolate milk, which will expire by the 20th. My step-dad is insisting we eat it so it doesn't go to waste. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, as I searched for food to take to work for lunch, I noticed that the only recent addition to our fridge is chocolate milk and popsicles. My mom went grocery shopping yesterday. FML
Today, my husband offered to do the weekly grocery shopping. Because he has never done the shopping before, I made him a list of what we needed and other optional foods to give him an idea of what to get. He came back with a week's worth of ramen noodles and 2 litres of soda. FML
Today, I found a small bottle of chocolate milk in the fridge from McDonald's. I've been living with my grandparents while going to college and figuring they'd never drink it themselves, I took a sip. It had expired two years ago. FML
Today, the only food in the house is canned beans and vegetables that I can’t stand. My dad refuses to go to the store because, "we can't afford it." Meanwhile, my stepmom just came home with a brand new Gucci purse. FML
Today, I saw my little brother drink from the milk carton, gag, and spit the milk back in. FML
Today, while my mom was out, my family agreed upon the assumption that she has a "shopping problem." I argued against it for quite a while, until she pulled up minutes later with a what seemed like a life-time supply of canned condensed milk. FML
Today, I went into my fridge and someone had drank all the beer. Only my 8-year-old son lives with me. FML
Today, we have nearly no food in the house. My husband went shopping with the kids and returned with a sack of tomatoes. Time to make lunch. FML
Today, my 6-year-old cousin came to my door, demanding canned food. I asked him what for, and he said, "Dad said I needed them for a school project." I said all right, and he started raiding my pantry. I was left with only green beans. He stole all my Spaghetti O's. FML
Today, my dad opened my fridge, let rip a horrible fart into it, then closed it and said "There ya go, a little somethin' for supper." FML

Chocolate milk in coffee makes a nice mocha.

You can freeze chocolate milk. It stays good for a really long time if you do! .

No one gave him a list? Was he told to get anything specific or just to wing it? Because although the that was a stupid choice for him, if he had no instructions than its everyone else's fault too.

Good luck! That is not the greatest combo in the world!

Hey, I'm so broke that I would be happy to have ramen and chocolate milk. At least you're eating OP!

14 bottles? Really? Why? Who thought this was a good idea?

The step brother who bought those 14 bottles sure did.

It sounds like your father sent the 12-year-old grocery shopping I guess if you rely on children to do shopping you get what you get. I'm surprised he didn't come back with the bag of candy

I was able to go to the store at around the age of 12 without coming home with junk food. I might have misinterpreted the list a few times or accidentally left something out, but I was never irresponsible.
