Today, the whole family came over to celebrate my 18th birthday. My grandfather bought me a giant mathematics book. Apparently, he didn't want my 16 year old sister to be "jealous", so he got her the new iPad. FML

That is just all kinds of unfair right there.

Psh, an iPad? What can you really do with that? But a giant math pad? Why, you can make paper airplanes, play tic-tac-toe, doodle, origami...oh, and learn math! You DEFINITELY got the better end of that deal.

You really don't have brothers or sisters, they are bitches when they have to share. Especially teenagers.

When it's your grandpa's birthday give him a toilet brush and get your grandma an awesome present 'so she wouldn't be jealous' and see how he likes it.

Maybe your grandpa got you a hooker since you're 18 and didn't want the rest of the family to see ;)

Must be a very small one then, to be able to hide between the pages of a book.

"favorite" in more ways than one, perhaps.

It is pure idiocy to give younger sibling anything on the older ones birthday, especially in that age. Even if you where a lot younger it would be just as mean. It is YOUR day. Giving the younger one presents not only on their birthday (when you get nothing) and on yours.. Well, it's not hard to feel less loved. Just as good to teach the younger one to wait until it's their birthday, so they grow up learning patience and the older one don't feel completely unloved.

I totally agree. The only time my siblings can get gifts on the same day is Christmas. My brother manages to drag his birthday into the week of mine though. (it sucks cause he always gets games and I have to pay for mine)

One time my grandfather gave my younger brother $200 and gave me a scarf from Target. Sadly, he didn't mix up the gifts :(

Just remember that if you ever get assaulted, a massive mathematics books is a far better self defense weapon than an iPad.
