Today, I received an award from my school rewarding me for my honor roll and my cheerleading. When I brought the certificate home my mom congratulated me and hugged me. I worked really hard for this and all my dad had to say was, "Try this flavor of Doritos." FML

Today, my math teacher raged at a student for eating an apple in class. As he yelled at the student, he slapped the apple out of his hand and right into my face. Everyone laughed, including the teacher. FML

Today, I was eating an apple in class. When I went to take a big bite, my teeth went right through the apple, causing me to scrape the apple right up my face. My nose then started to bleed. I'm now known as the girl who punched herself in the face with an apple. FML

So #83, you expect an expensive macAir when you graduate from 8th grade (which is nothing compared to college), but an apple when you complete 4 years of kick-ass work? I don't think so. After 4 years of hard work, you deserve something more valuable. Even if that means dinner with your family. And yeah go get a job.

no, this is funny because an apple is such a small gift that OP's parents probably would have been better off with just a verbal "congratulations." there's nothing selfish or spoiled about thinking that a piece of fruit is a lame present, because it is. it doesn't mean you aren't grateful for support.

Just out of curiosity – what makes you think you DESERVE a gift? Be grateful they came and acknowledged your accomplishment instead of being greedy and materialistic.

Maybe you will just ill-specific when you said that you wanted an apple. Seriously, it's an apple. They're red (or green or yellow) and full of delicious goodness. Eat it and get on with your life. Why not go out to dinner with your parents or something? Besides, at least you graduated. Some parents (like mine!) don't even acknowledge the fact and just say "Oh. Well ... Good for you." So, hey! You got lunch at least.
