Today, I had to spend all of my money on textbooks even though my refrigerator is empty. Starving and frustrated, I called home to ask for money for groceries. My mom told me I could afford to skip a few meals. FML

Today, I left for college. I spent hundreds of dollars on clothes, bedding and other things. After packing my entire closet and everything else I needed, I left only to have to head back home. My dad forgot to pay the first semesters tuition. He said "Oh well, you would have failed out anyway." FML

Today, after it appeared my daughter was throwing away any vegetables in her school lunch, I packed her all vegetables so she would have to eat at least one. Nope! She threw them out and complained to school that "mommy doesn't feed" her. I got a call from the school. FML

Today, I’m so hungry. My parents only get food for my sister and I’ve been surviving on cheese sticks for the past week. I only have one left. I don’t get paid until next week. I’m so scared I’m gonna faint at the wheel instead of at home, where I’m usually able to sit down and get some water before I do. FML
Broke as hell
Hangry
Today, after being robbed last week, I had no money to go to the store for food. Instead, my dinner consisted of two Tums chewables in tropical fruit flavors. After not eating all day, I thought they actually tasted pretty good. FML

You need to increase your sauce of income somehow.

Garnish your Ramen noodles with it. Ramen is ******* delicious. Years of food for pocket change!

i think the time has come to shove your pride aside and visit your local foodbank. Unless you enjoy eating liquified snacks for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

No way Ramen kicks ass

Ramen "kicks ass" because it has like 10,000 grams of sodium. Applesauce won't be as filling but at least it's not basically toxic.

Dang... Maybe consider two jobs if you have time or get a job at a food place so at the end of your shift you can fix you something to eat

At least you had SOMETHING to eat. I usually don't have anything to eat for a while after I pay tuition.

Unless he's never successful. Then he'll just be back on FML again. "I ate applesauce for years to pay for college and now I'm working at McDonalds. FML."
