Money: Today, my dad said that if I walked home from school, a distance...

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

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 can 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

aww that sucks. As said by others before me, i wouls take the money out of his wallet. Lol but then again if I weren't set on the money, i'd probably let it go. I walk 2 miles to and from school and it's all uphill to and downhill from school each weekday so walking isn't a big thing for me but I understand to some it may be a big deal and might be quite a bit of physical work... But hang in there OP karma will get your dad someday :)

Yea great, except that the reason why she decided to walk in the first place was because her father promised her he will pay her 50 bux! It wasn't because she didn't have a car or couldn't ride the bus!

131, a mile in 15 minutes is absurdly slow, j srsly op consider getting out more, an 8 mile walk should not mess you up that bad, it's a sign your not being nice to your body, unplug and go for a jog 3 times a week or swim or do something active, you will be suprized what you body can do... Easily..

It's actually faster than average, not even remotely close to absurdly slow. It's only SLIGHTLY above average, so it's really nothing impressive, but it's absolutely not slow.

Will you give it a rest now? It really is ridiculously slow. And everyone who actually walks regularly seems to agree.

Is there some reason you people are so concerned with one commenter? If you find someone funny, either thumb him up or say "lol" and move on. If you don't, just move on. Telling someone he isn't funny will get you nowhere, and it's liable to get you called a cockweasel or something similar. ******* douchenozzles.
