Today, my dad offered to pay me $40 to wash his car. Needing money to buy a video game, I agreed, and went out in the freezing weather to do the job. I finished the task, only to be paid in Monopoly money. My dad still hasn't gotten over how "funny" his prank was. FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Troll dad! Next time, make sure he pays you before hand. Plus, you should have figured there was a catch when he offered you 40 bucks just to wash his car.

You should **** up his car now..

Yes, because the solution to any problem in life is either "dump it" or "**** it up".

In this case it is.

Oh poor kid...there is nothing you can do about it.I know exactly how you feel.

Your dad is an ass. He played dirty - so can you. Switch the monopoly money for $40 plus an additional fee $10 for having to collect for yourself, and then splash mud all over his car. Hopefully it'll teach him a lesson about proper parenting; what goes around comes around.

Playing a prank on your children isn't 'bad parenting' as long as you don't make a habit of it and crush the kid's hopes every weekend.

Yes. Teach your dad that he raised a brat.

80 - The kid is going to be a brat for playing dirty back? Okay. The old man is acting like a brat not getting over his prank. If I had a child, I would jokingly hand him Monopoly money, laugh for a few minutes, then give him his well deserved money.

The thing is, I don't think I actually see this as a prank in the funny sense. If this story repeats itself, I'd be afraid this father is teaching his son the wrong lessons in life about work, honesty and earning money. I would want my future kids to grow up learning that if you put in a good effort, it'll pay off - not that cheating, going back on your promises and abusing others to your own gain are the ways to go.
