Today, I found out why my parents have been trying to convince me not to go to college this year. I also found out where the $20,000 they just spent on landscaping came from. My college fund. Which is now $0. FML

Today, I found out that my parents used all of the college money I have been saving up for 8 years to buy a beach house. The reason they waited until now to tell me? A tree fell on it, and they need more money for repairs. FML

Thievery

Today, I checked my bank account that I've been saving money in since I was a kid for college. I have $100 left out of the $10,000 I had last month. Apparently my parents thought buying a pool and an HDTV for themselves was more important than my college education. FML

Today, I learned that my dad invested my entire college fund into some shady internet stock, despite my dire warnings about being careful. He told me not to worry as he'd done some research, and he guaranteed everything would be fine. Two hours later that same stock dropped almost 75%. FML

pay them back by burning their cars to ashes, "2012 will happen soon, we need too save money on gas so I can go to college."

This is not the "true" year 2011. The Mayans did not predict that Christianity would take over and change the year because they're selfish pricks that want to rule the world. Civilization has been around for over 5,000 years (supposedly the Jewish calendar is the most correct, but I wouldn't know for sure). Therefore it is only 2011 AD, not truly the year 2011. Meaning this "2012" disaster already happened over 3,000 years ago, so now you can all STFU. It's amazing that out of all the scientists and geniuses I'm the only person to realize this, maybe because I'm anti-religion who knows lol. 2012 will be a repeat of May 21st, people are going to go crazy thinking its the rapture or some shit AGAIN, then feel stupid the next day.

Actually, the Myan calendar didn't include leap years, so it really was supposed to end a long time ago.

Today, I'm finally dating the girl I've been fawning over for years. So what do I do? I accidentally called her by her sister's name during a conversation, which might seem like a small mistake, except I used to sleep with her sister, and she's been having a hard time getting over it. FML

Today, I went to wish one of my friends a happy birthday on his Facebook wall, only to see that I was blocked. Turns out, he blocked me because he'd developed a crush on me for some time and couldn’t stand seeing the posts between me and my new boyfriend. So basically I can only be his friend if I’m single.

Today, I found out that my fiancé, with whom I've been with for 10 years, doesn't want to have sex with me because he thinks I'm going to trap him into having a baby. He sees me take my contraceptive pill nightly and knows I was booked in for having a coil fitted before Covid-19 happened. FML
