Today, I celebrated my 18th birthday. Alone. My only birthday wish came from the police officer who gave me a ticket. FML

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, the only person to wish me a "Happy birthday" was the cop who'd pulled me over, as he handed me my ticket. FML
Today, the only person who wished me a happy birthday is the policeman who checked my identity card for being "suspiciously gangster-like". FML
Today, I had my 18th birthday party. At midnight, three police officers showed up at my door and asked if they could look around. Were we doing anything bad? Nope. My friends suck at parking. Before they left, the officers said that this was the most toned down party they'd seen in years. FML
Today, it was my birthday, and even the person who seemed excited about me finally turning 21 and can legally drink forgot. Guess who got drunk alone tonight? This guy. FML
Today, I was the designated driver. It was also my birthday party. FML
Today, it's my 21st birthday. All my friends and family said they were busy so I figured I was getting a surprise party. Nope. They all were actually busy. I spent my birthday alone. FML
Today, I got a ticket. From my dad the cop. FML
Today, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. FML
Today, it was my 21st birthday and I invited a handful of my best friends over. They all stood me up and I drank alone in my apartment. Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, it was my birthday. Two of my best friends forgot it, and so did my grandparents. All of my friends were busy, so I spent it alone in my car. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Sucks that you were alone, but what was the ticket for? I mean, we can't know for sure whether this is a FYL or YDI because we don't know the details. Happy Birthday, now you have more than one.

that sucks, happy birthday anyway. If I were you I would have thrown my own ******* party and got a bottle and got wasted. I almost got arrested on my birthday, too bad the birthday gods didnt save you from getting a ticket like they saved me. better luck next birthday. I mean, we cant always have good days.

I turned 18 a few months ago and my birthday sucked too, mainly because i blew my friends of to spend time with my family instead, and my family didn't want to know. Not because i have no friends, that could easily be the case here, i wouldn't jump to the conclusion the OP didn't have any friends Oh an happy birthday dude

Your birthday WISH came from an officer? A ticket is a 'wish'? You mean present, right?

Your clearly an idiot for realizing that when you "wish someone a happy birthday" it is what is said when someone says the phrase happy birthday meaning the only person nice enough to say two words on the 18th anniversary of someone being born is the person giving them a ticket for a mild road infraction.

You should have wished not to get a ticket.

That's what you get for celebrating your 18th birthday by going 18 mph over the speed limit. You should be thanking that cop, if he hadn't made you see the error of your ways you probably wouldn't have lived to 50.

In life sometimes you have to deal with being by yourself for big holidays or special events, it just happens sometimes. You need to toughen up!! This will happen again at some point in life. Don't pity yourself either if you are trying to find friends, people will not want hear that.
