Today, I have -$700 in my current account, $500 from overdraft fees because I spent money they told me I had. I don't get paid till the 15th and when I cash in my paycheck all of it will go to bringing me even. So the $9 I found in my wallet this morning will have to last me untill the 30th. FML

I actually didn't laugh on this one. It's not funny. it's depressing. I'm truly sorry. Hopefully you'll run into some good fortune soon.
