Today, my dad said that if I walked home from school, a distance of 8 miles, he would give me $50. Two hours and four massive blisters later, I come home. When I asked for my money, he said "I was kidding." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, as I was walking home from school with my guy friends, my dad pulled up by the sidewalk, offered me a handful of dollar bills and said, "Get in, baby." Only after we drove away and he started laughing did I realize I'll probably never hear the end of this at school. FML
Today, as I was walking home from work, my dad drove past, pulled over, rolled down the window and asked, "Are you tired of walking?" To which I replied "Yes!" Just as I reached for the car door, he yelled "RUN A WHILE" and sped off. FML
Today, my dad refused to pick me up because he didn't want to get off the couch, so I had to walk for an hour and a half to get home. When I finally got home, my dad had gone out to pick my sister up from her friend's house. Her friend lives a 3-minute walk away. FML
Today, I had to walk three miles home from work. Both my parents were at home. The reason they wouldn't collect me is apparently because I've "gotten so fat, your grandma cried after she saw you". FML
Today, I finally told my dad that he owes me over 400 dollars, and that I need it or else I'd get kicked out of my apartment. He only gave me 70 and said to get a better job. FML
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
Today, I gave my dad $40 and asked him if he could get me lunch on his way back home. Long story short, he came back empty handed telling me it was my fault for trusting him with McNuggets. FML
Today, I went for a run when my shin splints acted up, so I called my dad to have him come pick me up. When I saw his car approaching, I stuck out my thumb like a hitchhiker, as a joke. The car pulled over to give me a ride. It wasn't my dad. FML
Today, I missed my bus. I had to ride my bike 2 miles. Once I left, some jerk nearly hit me. I flipped him off and shouted obsceneties. It was my dad, offering me a ride. He left. FML
Today, I finally summoned the courage to ask my dad to pay me as he promised, after I cut the lawn and cleaned all the house windows last week. His response was, "Get fucked." FML

Hey at least you got some exercise! And OP can't be a total fatass if they maintained a 4 MPH walking speed lol. But you know what I would be kind of mad if I didn't get the money after that too, but I guess you should have checked if he was being super serious.

Yeah, it's impressive how OP walked 1 mph faster than the average person for an entire 2 hours, isn't it? (I already did the math on that. By all means, scroll up if you care.)

Why would you want to do this anyways?? $50 isn't even enough to make me do this. but I dunno maybe you needed the excercise

Dude I would walk 10 miles for 50 bucks that's fifty bucks I didn't have before. If you have a job I can understand why you wouldn't I don't have a job so for me fifty is a lot.

get a bike a cycle 24 miles a day to get to and from work. takes me 1hr, it's a jolly nice ride and you loose them pounds from belly and save some pounds too (or dollars lol)

You don't bike 24 miles in an hour, unless you have an epic bike, no wind resistance, live in a perfectly warm climate and have a bicycle path the entire way without having to stop once. EVEN then, I doubt it. If you mean 24 miles both ways, yeah that's possible.

Uh 4mph is not fast at all, you must have been distracted with something else, I don't even walk 2mph while strolling in a park lol

I think OP walked, opposed to sauntering leisurely.
