Today, it was my 18th birthday. I got one thing: a fancy electric toothbrush from my little sister. I would say I'm happy to have something rather than nothing, except, for as long as the toothbrush works, there will be a Hannah Montana concert going on in my mouth. FML

You forgetting something?
Today, it was my birthday. My family usually gives me a financial gift, but didn't this time and said nothing about it. I cooked my own birthday dinner without help, then washed everyone's dishes. I got my own cake and ate it alone because they were too busy getting drunk. Nobody bothered to sing Happy Birthday either. 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, it's my 22nd birthday. The only person who remembered was the dentist who sent me a postcard in the mail. I stopped going to him four years ago. FML

Today, it was my birthday. The only person who remembered was my dad who got me a phone charger for my car, which I didn't even need because he got me the same exact thing last year. FML

I thought it was hilarious that Gillette does that. I got two of them as well.. one on my 18th, and on my 19th. They should've sent me some alcohol on my 21st for those standards.

Question: Did you tell anyone that your birthday was today before hand, or did you just expect everyone to read your mind? I get your family, but you can't expect your friends to know if you don't tell them. Hell, I don't even know half my friend's birthdays. It isn't because I don't care, it's because it's never come up in the conversation. Have you ever once said "Hey, my birthday's next week"?

I didn't get anything for my 18th birthday... not even a 'happy birthday' from any of my family. I would've been happier if I at least got something like OP did (._.)

ya but christmas isnt something personal to you. if they forget about christmas then they are retarded but it wouldnt mean anything to u, however if someone important forgot your birthday thats just a slap in the face

I thought this FML was making a suicide undertone, but nobody else appears to think so...

Seriously! I can't help but think the OP is going to cut their wrists with that free razor

I didn't think anyone got straight razors these days; their like collectors items. I figured the OP will have it too tough slicing his wrists with a safety razor.

There are ways to get the blades out. It's not impossible. o;

Why not just buy a pack of blades or find a new one instead of trying to get a razor apart?

Hahaha this comment made this FML so much better for me.

Not bad... those razors are getting expensive.

Later: AGGoddess told me I might get a suprise party tonight. Nothing happened, except some free shaving cream from Gillette for my razor. FML
