The blame game
Today, I'm mad at my dad for forgetting it's my birthday. He's mad at me for not reminding him. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Happy birthday indeed
Today, it was my birthday. I had an appointment at the dentist and went to do some shopping after that. A while after I got home, I met my dad and he just started complaining that I didn't spend any time with them on my birthday. When I tried to explain to him, he just got angry at me and started yelling. FML

Today, I've been so stressed out that I forgot my own birthday. I only remembered when my mom talked to me to let me know she wasn't planning on doing anything for it. FML

Today, I heard my dad complaining that he won't be able to go to a concert, because it's happening on my birthday. This is the first time he's even acknowledged my birthday in over ten years. FML

Today, my parents forgot it was my birthday. They ordered me to scrub the common bathroom, and when I asked if they'd remembered, my dad's reaction was, "Oh! Really?" My mom's was, "I thought that it was next week." What lovely parents I have. FML

Today, my brother mentioned my dad's birthday party. I said, "What party?" He said, "Shit, forgot I wasn't supposed to tell you." My own father doesn't want me at his party. FML

Today, I realized just how much of a bitch I am when I grounded my son for not telling me what he got me for my birthday. FML

My dads password for his laptop is my name followed by my birth date. One day I needed to use it but was stopped in my tracks by the 'your password is invalid' display time and time again. My dad came in to help and typed it in himself, ending it with 21 and gaining entry. Thinking he was just joking around I told him that silly me had typed in 22 (my actual birthday) instead of 21 and laughed. He laughed too and followed that up with "Aww that's easily fixed, love, the keys are next to each other". Thanks dad...thanks.

Been there — it's super strange. I was a bit excited though because I really dislike my birthday… and every other "let's celebrate X together day".

To me it's not that big of a deal because my dad forgot my birthday 3 years in a row, even when I reminded him less than a week before.
