Today, I had dinner with my family in celebration of my 19th Birthday. I've been hinting that I need a new laptop for months now and I was sure my family had bought me one. I have got a pair of slipper socks. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, was my graduation party. My birthday was about a week ago so my parents combined the presents. I thought it would be something big so I hinted for a new TV. I got a snuggie. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and apparently my family forgot it. But one person didn't forget. My dog gave me a little present in my new shoes I bought for myself. FML
Today, I turned 18. My parents got me a pineapple and a pair of socks. I'm allergic to pineapple, and the socks are too small. FML
Today, I turned eighteen. Thinking I was going to get a big present from my parents on this special day, I eagerly unwrapped my present. They got me a bag of M and M's. Last year I got flannel bed sheets. FML
Today, the whole family came over to celebrate my 18th birthday. My grandfather bought me a giant mathematics book. Apparently, he didn't want my 16 year old sister to be "jealous", so he got her the new iPad. FML
Today, my parents bought my 11-year-old brother a MacBook for my birthday. FML
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
Today, it's my birthday. My mom got me a gym membership and a bunch of clothes that are a few sizes too small. FML
Today, my parents gave me a sock and card for my eighteenth birthday. The card said, "Now that Dobby is free, get out." FML
Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me the present she'd bought for me. I said, joking, "I hope it's not a tie!" It was a tie. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well slipper socks ARE awesome. Fact is you are nineteen, expecting expensive birthday presents from your parents and being a little brat when you don't get one is very immature. You're an adult, go buy one yourself.

It's great how kids expect their parents to just fork out and buy a lap top for their bday. Have you not noticed the recession we are in? "New" lap top? Live with your old one.

okaay, everyone.. chill out. 19 in New Zealand. - She is probably starting her first year of university. My sister was in this same situation a couple of months ago (tbh, i actually thought this might have been her FML.) stop assuming shes a spoilt brat. - and come on, stop getting so angry. People that get pissed off when they don't even know the whole situation really ruin this website, i don't read the comments anymore. (other than the ones i think are my sisters. hah) oh, and i love slippersocks.

"Unloved"? You sound like you were raised to get everything you want.

i totally agree with you. most of the people out there saying that shes spoiled are probably spoiled themselves. and there telling her to get a job? really! maybe she does have one and she was just hoping her parents would help her out! so lay off!

How is telling someone to "stop whining and get a job to take care of yourself" indicative of being spoiled?

What the **** is this? I'm 15 and haven't gotten a present since I was 12. Big deal. I babysit for the neighborhood kids. Why? I actually WORK for my shit. New Laptop? If I even hinted it, my dad would slap me with a belt for being a greedy kid. I should get him to track you down and beat you with a belt for being such a lazy ass. If I were your parents, I wouldn't even want you to live in my house, I'd tell you to get a ******* job and make something of your life.

well you bloody deserve it for being a spiteful wanker! Oh guess what, I never work in my whole teens life, me mum n dad bought me whatever I'd like. I didn't even have to do my laundry or cook, I have a maid for that. Maybe, just maybe, my parents love me, unlike yours who obviously hate you and find every opportunity to belt you just for the heck of it.

You don't get presents when you get older. It comes with age. Sounds like you already had a laptop. Ungrateful and whiney.
