There's a word for what you're feeling. Entitled. That you don't feel guilt for blowing through your data limit and costing your father more money is telling. You should be apologizing, not scheming on how to get more. This... Hey kid.. read this mans input.. then read it again.. then stop and think about it for a while.. Then go thank your old man for putting up with your shit... Damn.. Go netflix and chill at your own place. |

Is this going how you expected OP?
I never had an allowance. My father gave me a hard time and a job, I earned everything I had. Room and board was included until I was 17 and moved out, since then I have worked my ass off. This makes me sad for you and the FSA generation you are clearly a part of. Good luck figuring life out. |

Old netflix and chill... Let me guess, you have comcast and live in zip code 72211.... I'm going through the same thing but use 700 to 800 Gigs a month but I pay my own bill. You have a grace period for 3 months. I'm going to try and get a business accout or switch to ATT as they aren't enforcing their data cap . For everyone talking about having internet with no caps, I did until december and they they start caping. It will be coming to your connection soon since ISP's are realizing people are going away from traditional TV. |

How old are you?
If you have time to watch Netflix shows you have time to be working. Get a job and get your own place and stop freeloading and taking advantage of your father I would feel terrible if I was in college and lived at home and didn't at least pay some bills. And he give you $100 spending money? I would never accept that from my father. Dude what's wrong with you? |

Study more, watch less Netflix, get a job, and let your old man keep his $1.2k per month. You say to study more, but you math sucks. Kinda ironic, huh? Obviously I was talking about Jupiter-months. Of course, we all know that a Jupiter year is only 11.9 Earth years, but I figured it was close enough that such a minor rounding discrepancy wouldn't make a difference. Since that clearly isn't the case, I have changed my OP to say 1.2k per year, for you people using Earth months/years. ETA: and now I see that it's $100/week and not $100/month, like I originally read for some reason. That makes your complaints even more ridiculous, in addition to making my error even funnier. |
