Thanks, iHate it

Today, it was my birthday. I have been heavily hinting that I want an iPhone. I opened my present from my parents and found an iPhone box. Ecstatic, I quickly opened it. Apparently, my parents thought it would be funny to wrap my present, a $10 iTunes gift card, in the box my Dad's iPhone came in. FML

That isn't funny. But a 10 dollar iTunes gift card is something. Something is better than nothing

I don't know about that guys. I'm thinking the FML is more that they acted like they were getting her the phone by giving her the box but didn't. She has obvious reason to be disappointed as opposed to them just saying no which would still disappoint but not half as much. Wouldn't you be sad if you unwrapped a present and was all "OMG you got me the new *whatever*! You shouldn't have" Then you open it's..a Itunes card. As opposed to it just being "Wow, Itunes card, sweet!"

I sense some selfishness here. the cost of a smartphone is extremely expensive, since u asked your parents to buy you one I assume u expect them to pay for its usage too. when I was a teenager cell phones were just becoming available, I didn't get one until I could purchase and pay for it myself, be grateful you got a gift at all. maybe when u grow up get a job and have kids you will realize that a 200 dollar gift is an absurd request from a child.

it's not an FML to say that you didn't get an expensive gift. it is, however, one when the parents not only lead him to believe he's getting one, but then get one for themselves, and rub it in his face by packing a $10 gift like this

I ******* hate people who do shit like this. It's not funny. It's just mean!

Steal their credit card and go get the iPhone! That'll teach them.
