Ouch, man. At least the album ended up safely in your hands at the end.
You ungrateful sod! 1) At least now you have the album 2) Your wife knows exactly what you like 3) Tell her the story of how you bid for that exact same album on eBay and you'll laugh about it.
Actually, this is a really sweet story! His wife obviously knows him really well and it's hilarious she unknowingly outbid him for the album. I wonder about the credit card, though. I guess they don't share money as husband and wife? That's part of the story that's unclear to me.
I think you're all missing the major point here; she outbid him. With HIS credit card. So basically because she wanted it as a present for him, it cost him a lot more money.
yeah god-darn lucky to have enough money to buy Beatle collectibles!!! ughhh can i have it? xD i swear i'd die to meet them. i love them ever so. i'm pretty sure i'm one of the biggest fans in the world, with over 4 thousand sound files, and about 30 books (i'd have more but i'm poor), bunch of vinyls), and all their movies, plus hours of their rare video footage. i love seeing fellow beatle fans
don't complain. it seemed like she wasnt that great with the interweb business, but she had great intentions. it was a great thoughtful heartfelt gift. appreciate.
138 is right. that's the real FML
she used his credit card...if she used her own then it would show she truly loved him...shes just spending his own money on him. which is ironic.
It isn't all that much of a gift if he paid for it though
You'd HAVE to die to meet them...
Well, he paid for it. And he paid more for it than if she hadn't got him anything.
shut up 3
I don't think you understand the FML
So how is this an FML? You got the album anyway. At least you didn't call her a jerk, right? Also, I would love to have that as a birthday present, so...
You don't understand. She bought the album using his credit card, therefore he paid for his own gift anyway. Also, he would have gotten it for a lot cheaper if she hadn't outbid him in the auction...
Yeah - so what? It should be "their" money anyway. This really isn't a big deal whatsoever, his life isn't "******." This is more of a funny coincidence.
yeah, but even if it's "their" money, they now have less of "their" money than they would have.
People take these comments way too seriously. I still kinda would have been thankful though. :| (IM OBSESSED WITH THE BEATLES) :X
well you still got it.
The fact that she used his money to buy it, and that he wound up paying far more than he would have? It's not difficult to understand.
you obviously need to re-read the FML.
Comment moderated for rule-breaking.
Show it anywayget revenge cut the part between the legs out of all her panties, you can have a nice laugh and a happy birthday doing it
The hell is wrong with you? Who does that?
that is hilarious!! it was meant to be, right? I hope you had a laugh over that, its a great story!
Plus, I don't think it's that bad of an FML because it seems like you were ready to pay almost as much as she bid anyway...if anything, it's kind of cute. Don't whine.
"WAY over-bidded me" isn't exactly the same as "almost as much".
be grateful, you have a wife that loves you and actually knows what you really want. I still cant figure out what to get my boyfriend for his birthday

Awww. And then at Christmas, you could pawn your heirloom pocket watch so you could buy her some ornate haircombs for her long beautiful hair, and meanwhile, she cuts and sells her hair to buy you a chain for your heirloom pocket watch - what a riot! Oh, Henry, the IRONY!!!
