Today, my dad found a couple of coins on the floor next to my desk, and gave me a lecture about how money doesn't grow on trees and how irresponsible I am when it comes to money. They were Chuck E. Cheese tokens. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I came home to find that my mother had sold all my valuable collector coins for cheap at a local shady pawn shop to buy herself a TV. The coins in question were worth enough to start a business. FML
Today, I got home and found my kids playing with my coin collection. My wife told me to stop being grouchy because it’s not like they’re silver and gold. No, but they were all mint condition, some of them very rare, and every scratch the kids just put on them has halved their value or worse. FML
Today, while paying for groceries, I opened my wallet to find that all my cash had been exchanged for Monopoly money. FML
Today, I found out my dad spent most of the $500 I earned from mowing lawns on an Xbox 360 for himself. He was the one who encouraged me to put the money in the bank for college and to learn responsibility. I'm 14 years old. He's 37. FML
Today, my 4 year old son thought it was funny to put money in the shredder. He stuck over 500 dollars in it. FML
Today, my son stuck coins in our DVD player. It would be cute if he wasn't 25. FML
Today, I let my dad put my dollar in the slot machine for me because I'm not old enough to gamble. I won $200 but he kept it because he "put the dollar in the slot machine." FML
Today, my father threw out my $100 wedge of blue cheese because it "smelled funny". FML
Today, my dad came home from Vegas. Today, my college savings account is down by $64,000. FML
Today, my dad screamed at me because I've been "spending too much money". He's been out of a job for 4 months and I've been giving him 300 dollars a month to help pay for bills... and his beer. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It is money -- at the Cheesiest Place on Earth! How else are you going to play the games to earn the tickets that give your family such a highbrow lifestyle?

It's a comments section on a website called FML. We're not looking for sophistication.

We'd be surely disappointed.

FYI. Cheese (coins) don't grow grow on trees either.

SqueakyChipmunk 22
No, but there's a car named Herby. I don't think anyone would name their child "Horby"

You're probably one of 'those' people without an inner child and thinks that anyone who haves any childlike fun is "immature", not an adult, not eligible for the real world, etc.

No. People over the age of 7 or 8 go to this place called "Gameworks". Adults do anyway. You can play games, eat food that is not horrible cheap greasy pizza, and if you are over 21 they serve alcohol. You are probably one of those creepy people that are way too old to be somewhere, so you can show off to the 7 year old crowd how awesome you are at jumping into a pile of plastic balls.

Nope, I don't go to C.E.C., or go in the ball pits. I'm just one of those people who believe on the inner child in you. And I know of this other place, it's called Dave & Busters.
