Today, my dad rejected my birthday present to him because it was "Made in China." FML

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my dad found the Father's Day present that I spent at least ten hours preparing and decorating. I'd expected him to be extremely happy about this lovely gift. His only reaction was to ask if he could exchange it for something else. FML

What a catch
Today, rather than get me a birthday present, my boyfriend just got angry that I got gifts from other people. Apparently, it "made him feel guilty." FML

Today, my dad forgot it's my birthday. When I told him about it, he accused me of lying and threatened to ground me for a week. FML

Today, it's my birthday. My father didn't get me a birthday present or do anything for me, and acted as though he only came to visit because it was expected. Yet when it was his birthday a couple months ago, he expected me to take him out and pay for it FML

Happy birthday indeed
Today, it was my birthday. I had an appointment at the dentist and went to do some shopping after that. A while after I got home, I met my dad and he just started complaining that I didn't spend any time with them on my birthday. When I tried to explain to him, he just got angry at me and started yelling. FML

Today, as I was waiting in line to give my mom her birthday present, my dad gave her the exact same gift I'd also bought for her. FML

The blame game
Today, I'm mad at my dad for forgetting it's my birthday. He's mad at me for not reminding him. FML

Today, I heard my dad complaining that he won't be able to go to a concert, because it's happening on my birthday. This is the first time he's even acknowledged my birthday in over ten years. FML

Today, I found out I have to give my father-in-law back the football tickets he gave me for my birthday. Why? His girlfriend decided she wanted to go. He didn't get me a different gift. FML

Miserable parenting style
Today, my mom was going to take me shopping to buy a gift for my dad’s birthday, but unfortunately, I missed a spot while cleaning the kitchen. Now my mom is “embarrassed to be seen with me in public” and will buy my dad nothing, and tell him it’s because I don’t love him. FML

I once told my nephew everything was made in China. He started checking every part of his body for the "Made in China" tag. Lol

No, your nephew was made in va-China. I admit I stole that bad joke from somewhere else. My apologies.

Well, let's be honest here; most products are made in china so it's kind of hard to avoid made in china products. He was probably knew the present was gonna break lol

Glue a bunch of popsicle sticks together, thrust the finished product in his face, and say, "It was made right here!"

#4 Problem, the Popsicle sticks are probably made in China and same with the glue..
RobinGoodfellow 47
Popsicle sticks are made from the wood of birch trees, which are plentiful in both China and the US, among other places. While it's probably more common to find popsicle sticks made in China, they're not exclusively made there. As for glue, Elmer's Glue has its headquarters in Ohio so I think OP is safe on that one.

My dad worked in an American steel mill and would not let his brother park his Toyota in the driveway.

I saw a ford truck with the quote "Ford, made with tools not chopsticks" written on the side. Maybe ford should start using chopsticks so they can reach the standards of Toyota.

but toyota is made in japan which is waaay better than china.

Aren't a lot of domestic cars made with foreign parts?

Believe it or not a lot of "foreign" cars are made in the US while a lot of "American" cars out source to Mexico. So if you buy a Ford instead of a Toyota to give jobs to Americans you may be doing the opposite.

Take him on a tour of his house and show him some of the things he has that are made in China. Probably most of his kitchen appliances, clothing, TV, lamps and whatnot. And his cellphone. Then take all of it and leave, because he obviously doesn't want it.
