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

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?

Well in this economy...

So you were wasting money on chuck e cheese tokens, and then wasting the tokens by throwing them on the floor. So ask yourself this - who had to work so you could be given the money to buy, then waste, chuck e cheese tokens?

Just because his dad was there doesn't mean he was giving him money.

You are right. Adults (or at least people old enough to work part time) always hang out at chuck e cheese. Not only is it a great place to meet girls, you can win things by playing skee-ball!

You mean it's not a great place to meet girls? My friend, Pedo H. Bear, was lying?

Didn't you hear?? Next year, the world is switching to Chuck E. Cheese tokens instead of money!

I met a guy who never wanted to go to Chuck E. Cheese again after seeing a kid pee down the slide.

I don't blame him. I was about 9 and some kid puked in the ball pit. I realized that probably happens way too often, I haven't gone back since.

Looks like the Tooth Fairy is being a cheap bastard.

That place is getting nasty. It is not unusual for the adults in the chuck e cheese to have a brawl. Some even have security guards on the weekends.

If you bought Chuck E Cheese tokens then yes, you are irresponsible with money.

I read your name as "Cheesalicious". Brain fail.

Doesn't EVERYONE who visits Chuck E. Cheeses for fun technically wastes their money on tokens? Think about it.
