Today, I went to my parents' for the first time in months. Upon my arrival, I found out that I won't be spending the day with them because they've taken a car trip to attend a Sarah Palin book signing. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Today, I drove 15 hours to drop my son off at my parents' for their vacation, just for them to tell me that they changed their minds and they're taking my sister's kids instead. FML
Today, I was awakened by knocking on my door, only to find my parents standing there. Turns out, they booked two one-way tickets to visit me from another country. Their plan? I should scrap my upcoming 2-week vacation to hang out because they invested in this trip. Oh, and they didn't book a hotel. I'm 31. FML
Today, my whole family made an hour-long drive to a restaurant that's just a few minutes away from my place. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, my family was leaving for a weekend trip and was supposed to pick me up on the way down. About an hour before they are supposed to arrive, my mom calls to tell me that there's no room left in the car, so they won't be stopping to get me. FML
Today, I flew my wife, myself and three kids to pay a surprise visit to my parents who were going to be alone for Christmas. When we arrived, we found out they decided to go on vacation. We have nowhere to go. FML
Today, I found out I can't go to Los Angeles to visit my grandparents for spring break like I'd planned because my asshole dad got some sort of court order preventing me from leaving the state. He and my mom are in a custody battle over me. FML
Today, I told my parents I really missed them and wanted to come home for the weekend, as I haven't seen them in months. They told me that was a bad idea and they couldn't fit me into their schedule. I asked what their plans were. They said they didn't have any yet. FML
Today, marks the third time this month my parents came to visit. I moved 5 hours away to get away from them. FML
Today, I bumped into my parents at the mall. They didn't tell me they were around. I live 5,000 miles away, in a different country from them. FML

I'm going to get ahead of the game and start the political controversy: I think all politicians should be rounded up, placed in a large vat, and covered with glue. Discuss.

Sarah Palin makes me vomit. But I think we should focus on the issue that Bristol Palin came in THIRD on Dancing with the Stars!

THAT'S the real issue? We are doomed!

does anyone else get a little scared that people actually read anything by her?

So you expect your parents to sit around the house all day every day just in case you decide to show up? It doesn't matter where they went or what they're doing. You can't honestly expect people to abandon a trip they've already embarked on to run back home and see someone who didn't bother to make sure they would be available. It's inconsiderate to do so in the first place, and childish to whine about it.

holy shit justin has a book?!?

You forgot Snooki. Although, I don't think hers will really count as a book, seeing as it'll only have three pages; one for gym, one for tan, and one for laundry.

It will have four pages, Mr. MidnightEyes. You can't forget the page for her muscly, juice-head guidos. Oh and the back cover will showcase her ******.

Obama wrote a book. He is almost as smart as Snooki!

did you call ahead? cause if you didn't then you deserve it. and what's with all the people bad mouthing sarah palin?
starile 20
People are badmouthing her because she is a person that wants to make our country suck, and has enough lemming followers to potentially make it happen.

I very much doubt two things you said, 65. I think it unlikely that Sarah Palin's goal is to destroy America. I doubt she has very many followers at all.
