Today, it's my 18th birthday. My parents got me a $5 gift certificate to iTunes. It came for free with the iPhone they just bought my sister for her middle school graduation. FML

That sucks. Guess we know who the favorite is.

As soon as I read this I said out loud "Woahhh, that's just ****** up."

I'm 26 and have been getting taken to dinner/having my favorite meal prepared for years now. It's not that uncommon for people to stop receiving gifts when they reach adulthood, until they get into a relationship and there's more incentive to buy gifts for someone. Appreciate the gift card, since it's a material item nonetheless that you can actually benefit from (and not just some piece of shit like a trinket to hang from a key ring.)

#61 - you have no right to compare yourself to her. Your friends/family take you out to dinner and spend the day focusing on YOU. All she got was a $5 card, point blank. She didn't get a dinner, the high light was her sibling who probably hadn't even graduated yet. This is a ****** up situation. What 8th grader needs an iphone anyway? I mean... more so than an 18 year old? It's definitely backwards.

You don't need an iphone. Get a book, damnit.

Ugh, I hate seeing little preteens with phones all the time. When I have kids, they're not getting phones till high school. At least, not good ones. Anyway, that seriously sucks. I'd throw the iPhone at the sister's face. Bitch. :)

I got nothing when I graduated high school, when I turned 18, and when I turned 19. You'll live.

Yep sucks for youu. She is def the favorite in the family haha

That's horrible!! I'm not gonna lie, if she were my sister I would kill her, haha. That is pretty unfair if you ask me.
