Today, I got into a huge fight with a girl at school. My mom and dad decided to punish me by letting my three older brothers pick out my wardrobe for the next week. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finally stood up for myself and beat the crap out of a bully at school, as my father told me to do. The kid and I were called to the principal's office, along with our parents. Inside my father's smirk faded when he saw that the kid's mom was his boss. FML
Today, I was suspended from school for “being involved in a fight.” The other girl beat me up while I didn't do anything to defend myself, for fear of getting in trouble. She got off scot free. FML
Today, my parents told me that they've been having a contest to see who could punish me the most this week. So far, my mom is in the lead by kicking me out of the car near railroad tracks, and making me walk the 4 miles home in the freezing rain. FML
Today, my dad and mom and I were going out to eat dinner. My dad wanted a romantic dinner just with my mom so he told me to make an excuse not to go. I did, which ended up as a huge fight, grounded and phone taken away. My dad just stood there in the background putting thumbs up. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for going through her closet for some warmer clothes. She had a rant about taking her clothes without her permission, all while wearing a pair of my boots and one of my sweaters. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for fighting with my younger brother. Not because she wanted us to stop, but because my brother couldn't find a good comeback to my argument. FML
Today, I got into a fight with my mom over the chores, and stormed out. When I returned later, I found the house had been egged. My mom told my dad she saw me do it, and he won't believe my side of the story. He says I'll be lucky if I see sunlight this summer. FML
Today, I finally had it with the redneck bully who's been tormenting me. He was repeatedly poking and pinching me and laughing out loud during class, so I slung him to the ground, pinning him. I got suspended. They only called his parents, who never do anything; my "caring" parents are looking into teen boot camp. FML
Today, my brother thought it would be hilarious to take a pair of scissors to all my bras. My mom can't take me shopping for another three days and I have no one to borrow a bra from. I have school. FML
Today, my mom and siblings got into a fight. Being generally quiet and non-confrontational, I stayed out of it. Shortly thereafter, I was yelled at by my mother for being "ungrateful" and "disrespectful." I still don't know what I did wrong. FML

Burn anything you have that you don't want to be seen wearing in public. That hideous reindeer sweater in the back of your closet... Yeah, BURN IT NOW.

Fashion doesn't matter dumbass

20 - The way you dress really does say a lot about the person you are.

As much as we'd all like to believe that's true. It really isn't. Fashion, clothes, appearance; they really do matter.

46 no it doesnt I've seen people who dressed to impress and live in a dump now sence u think you're so smart tell me how does that work
unknown_user5566 27
80- Comment 46 didn't say fashion dictates your success, the comment said fashion shows who you are as a person, which is true. It's a way to express yourself. So unless you think expressing yourself doesn't matter, there's really no reason to disagree with the comment.

#95-- It doesn't necessarily express yourself. What if your parents only allow you to wear certain clothes? What if your school/job/religion has a strict dress code? What if you simply can't afford nice clothes? I would hate if people thought I was a bad person just because I couldn't afford the kinds of clothes I wanted...

The people who say that usually look like bums..
saksxalmo 20
You don't know what I look like, so you can't really make that judgment. But fyi I don't look like a bum, thanks. (Though like I said, it shouldn't matter.) But it's not like I have all the money in the world or the permission to dress the way I like. I know plenty of perfectly nice people who can't afford nice clothes. I know plenty of horrible people who dress nicely or "fashionably". Based on your comment, I'm going to assume you're the latter. :) I personally think that the only standard for dress should be that you're clean and modest. There's no need to push certain styles or types of clothing onto others. :P

46 no it does not a pice of cloth u use to not show your skin doesnt really reflect who you are

Fashion really does matter. In your private life? Not so much. But try going to a job interview wearing ripped jeans and a t-shirt. I'm sure they'll be impressed.

Unless you were defending yourself against an attack, YDI. Plus, points to your parents for being creative. I'd rather be grounded versus having my brother pick out my outfits. After this week is over, I bet you'll think twice about fighting next time!

That is hilarious.

The first few days are fun, but they'll get tired of it and accept bribes... How much money do you have saved up?

I can never finish. My parents send me in a time machine so I repeat the same day over and over again. I've been doing the same math problem for over 10 years now.

Try some reverse psychology. When they propose an outfit or combination you don't like, say "Wow, you guys have great taste. I was worried you would pick something else". Keep doing that until they pick something you like and then scream "No way will I be seen wearing that". This should buy you a few days at least before they catch on. Good luck with that.

You still have school?

That will teach you not to fight at school
