My friend cancelled going trick-or-treating for Halloween. Because I'm a complete loser, I have no other friends to go with.
My brother is nice, so he bought my costume, but now I have no use for it. I'm going to pay him for it, so that's $30 down the drain.
I should have asked if we were still going before I wasted my brother's time and money, especially because my friend is notorious for cancelling. God, I'm an idiot.
