When it's your parent's birthday give a gift to the other and act confused if they ask why.

I kind of feel your pain, my family works the same. One year I got a card for my birthday, my brother got a laptop, a xbox 360 and 7 games for it. Two years ago I got a text that said "well done, you are not dead yet." For my birthday, my brother got given a brand new house. Favouritism sucks.

I think the line "he got a brand new house" immediately renders the argument "they fed and clothed you! They did their best! Just be grateful!" completely invalid. Unless you had a history of dangling your parents over shark tanks (and your brother had to keep rescuing them) there is no excuse for that level of favoritism. ...Seriously, I have terrific parents, but I have a hard time imagining them saying "Happy birthday! Here's your own private villa!"

Says the guy posting from the iPhone app. Are you friends with the secretly-gay gay-basher from the other FML? :-)

Hey man, to each their own. I love both Pc and Mac, however I find Mac suits my personal needs better (I'm an artist and I love the resolution and the wider range of apps I can use, also the multitasking is great if I'm working on reference sketches). I like my Mac, and I liked my PC. I just had to make the change due to my career path. I don't see the need of spending over $1000 on a computer if you aren't using it for a specific purpose...

My parents use to give my sister something SMALL on my birthday, and I would get something small on her's. Usually, it was like a stuffed animal or an action figure. Your brother sounds spoiled.
