Today, it's my birthday. The only gift I got was a book on the history of cancers. Not the illness, the zodiac sign. I'm a Virgo. I don't even like astrology. FML
stupidpplsuck tells us more.
op here i wouldn't have cared about not getting a gift at all, especially since money is a little tight right now. But the fact that there was a gift and it was something that doesn't really pertain to me or my interests is was got me a little down. I'm still gonna read it and I appreciate the thought, but I would have preferred just a card or something.
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

And there you were, getting your hopes up about the prospect of reading a book documenting the history of an insidious disease, complete with pictures and early accounts from grieving folk who had lost loved ones. My condolences, OP. Wait…

"Sir, you have cancer." "Oh, shit." "Not the illness, the zodiac sign." "But I'm a Virgo!" "_(*_*)_/"

Oh wow! The stars were right again! Todays virgo zodiac update predicted that you would be feeling down and that this is a time for change. The all knowing and all seeing oracles over at astrology-zodiac-signs.com say that you are to meet someone new and end up in an interesting relationship never thought possible before. May the stars be with you OP!

Everyone who pressed "you deserved it" believes in astrology

I guess having a relationship with a book would be "interesting" at the very least...
