Kid gets dad a PS4 for christmas after saving up for months
This kid saved up for months, including all his birthday money, to be able to buy his dad a PlayStation 4 for Christmas. Once his dad had got through all the packaging and saw the surprise awaiting him, his shock was evident.

"You know I'm probably gonna ignore you for the next 3 months, right?" -Dad most definently

Bet the mum was fuckin pissed at having to buy a PS4 on behalf of her kid
MacGruberTheThroatRipper
Probably bought it just a little before the PS4 Pro was released.
Baeloro
I think people underappreciate the amount of effort a kid put forth to buy such an expensive gift
TheRealestLurker
"But I wanted an Xbox"
doublediabeetus
So now his dad can ignore him and love him even less
mellino19
Plot twist, it was all his dads money that was saved up so he really bought it for himself through his son
jocloud31
"So now we can play games together, right Dad!?" "...

RipOffTheBandAid
Kid has a hidden agenda. Kid now has PS4
McKraut
"This will go great in my room!" shouts dad as his son's heart sinks.
angeredrabbitslutbag
That kid is so proud! Thanks for sharing this.
tehzpoon
And that man is so proud of his son. Gave me the feels.
crosep22
Kids just standing there like "can I use it now????"
CorgisButtsDriveMeNuts
I expected a major twist with some dad joke level of surprise inside.
Grumpyoldscotsman
I spend too much time on Imgur. I thought he was going to prank him with some shitty "gift" inside; like y'know...an old buttplug.
aayhan
Greatest son. For real.
malfunctioningcats
I wish i have kids like that one day
fourthreeone
Will you love me now, dad? Please?

Kid buys himself a PS4 disguised as gift for his dad*
Mr107
Meh. My brother and mom combined their birthdays to get a NES
artism43
What he found in the box will shock you!
kayakartist
The hell kinda allowance does that kid have!!
Jabroni29
You get my upvote for not crying while being genuinely happy.

"It's mine?" "Yes, stop fucking up my KDR, Dad"

This is why I love home Gold on Xbone so my son can finally play on his own account
Caniac
Every time I'd grab my son's FNFAL build, he'd be like "Sure you don't want to stick to the M16? Member how much you love noobtubing" ( :/ )
LudeJaw
BigRedNY
Used to share Halo account with my dad. My thoughts exactly haha
GuacamoleBubbleGuts
I wholeheartedly hate myself for being a lil shit on Xmas '85 when he got me a NES. He asked to play and got slayed by Koopa. I was pissed!
PurpleDocsAndEarlGrey
That kid saved for months and was able to get a console worth 200 quid odd?! What kind of pocket money is he on?!
IBelieveIHadAHat
I got 30$ per month when i was 14. Had to save Up the money two years and work as paperboy to buy a ps3.
RedroverRedrover
When I was 11/12 I had a steady babysitting gig every day after school. Made like 50 bucks a week. And it would be more in today's money.
ChaosandChaos
For inflation, but the pay stays the same.
ChaosandChaos
So, you'd only make 50 a week in today's money too.
RedroverRedrover
What? No. Kids now are making like twice per hour what I used to make.
ChaosandChaos
What did you used to make? What year? Then we'll talk about inflation, and explain how economies work.
ChloePrice
Including birthday money. I got like 40 bucks a month when I was younger, which wasn't even a lot compared to almost all my friends.
PurpleDocsAndEarlGrey
TDIL I am poor. Hahaha I used to get about 30 quid for my birthday. Didn't get pocket money at all hahaha
ChloePrice
Aw, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say you're poor or anything. I've known a legitimately rich family who never gave anything to their son :s
PurpleDocsAndEarlGrey
I'm not gonna be bitter coz some kids have it better. I'm 25 and I wish it would take me just a few months to afford a console hahahah.
madetheaccountjustforyou
... my kid could buy two of any console on the market right now with just his birthday and christmas money.
HughLaurie
You must be the family this guy was talking about: http://imgur.com/bSK31j7
madetheaccountjustforyou
Nope. Did you know the median household income in the US is $51,939? Most people can afford a $500 console.
madetheaccountjustforyou
As evidenced by them selling hundreds of millions of consoles.
HughLaurie
Right 'cause food, gas, and car/house maintenance is free, and there's no such thing as mortgages, bills, taxes, or student loans.
madetheaccountjustforyou
Yup, we are a big huge country of people living just like college students, ramen to ramen. *eyeroll*
mthrndr01
If you make choices to live frugally at median income you should be ok in most places. Don't mortgage yourself into poverty.

When my grandmother was really young. She saved up for over a year to get her grandmother a great bottle of wine. Now this was back in (1/?)

(2/?) 1950's.My grandmother was 6 or 7 at the time. The minute my great-great grandmother opened the packaging. The minute my great-great

(3/3) grandmother opened the packaging, she looked at my grandmother and said"This is shit" and threw the bottle against the wall.

And then bang his mom.

The kid's still been deeper in her than his dad ever will be

My family had a tradition. Get dad presents that we wanted but couldn't justify buying ourselves. Want to watch a movie? Buy dad the DVD.
MethelyneBlue
Hahaha I thought this was a common thing??
thatsjustawful
My friends father does that with guns "this is really expensive, I'll get it and give it to mom"
ChaosandChaos
Ya'll people are fucked up.
Tengenstein
Me and my Dad came to an agreement early in our relationship; We'd stop buying each other presents since it was a lot of hassle. love my dad
swatz
That's what we do as parents. Hmm that's some bad ass Starwars figures... I bet my son would like them, Woo and these transformers too.
inspiringandfunnyusernamecoolheh
Long story short Dad got a bad std from the hooker
iamtotallyahuman
My parents would do that to me. "Thanks mom a autobiography of a horse rider. Sure you can borrow it."
RickySpanish1
Phew! Thought I was the only one who did that

That's pretty selfless of your dad
weliveinaspaceshipdear
As a parent: we honestly don't want shit. We want to spend time with our kids. A PS4 that says "hey come play with me" is perfection.

I can't wait till all mine are old enough that they can carry me into LCS
PanykFelidae
My dad got 'me' a dreamcast, back when they were new... we literally played madden to death, an hour a night 2-3 times a week. Disc wore out
Varzoth
yup 100% agree, I just wish my daughter wasn't so fucking terrible as games. She's a god damned liability in co-op :p
weliveinaspaceshipdear
One day you'll look back fondly on the days you could school her ass easily
bustrpoindextr
My dad hasn't played video games with me in years, he just couldn't handle going from consistently destroying me, to the opposite.
feckr
one day you'll get too into COD and then REALLY fuck her mother
Theverant
My useless offspring made me presents.
HughLaurie
You sound like my dad. He was an ungrateful ass too.
Theverant
It must be horrible for him to have sired offspring with no sense of humor
SJohnson23
His own fault - what sort of sense of humour is somebody called "Hugh Laurie" going to have?
Caniac
Plot twist: chose username cause he doesn't have Lupus

WTF?!?! All I got was a coffee mug that said "Grandpa" because they couldn't find "Dad." I need to up my "dad game."
EthanMilleson
Step one: stop putting quotations around today's lingo. That's a mark of an uncool dad.
ScrotallyBallsome
Your kid is trying to tell you something, "Grandpa"
Dunes8
They could have covered up the "Grand" part

I got my dad a five pound Hershey chocolate bar. He donated it to the homeless but damn his face was so halairious
