Lower your expectations
Today, it was my birthday. Some 17 year-olds will receive cars as presents from their parents. Mine, however, booked me a plot in the local graveyard. FML

Today, was my 16th birthday and I was supposed to be surprised with a new car. I have overheard my parents talking about bringing it home tonight while I was at a friend's house. We snuck back to my house to see them bring my car home. All I saw was my Dad crash my new car into a street lamp. FML

OP, are you actually bitching about not getting a car as present? Just because some rich, spoilt brats get it?

Ummm I'm pretty sure the "bitching" is about getting a GRAVEYARD PLOT as a 17th birthday present... The car was just an example of what some people get.

Perhaps it's a testimony as to how you are living your life.

You entitled little turd. Some people do get cars, but they usually end up failing at life later for never having to earn anything. Others in this world don't make it to age 17, be grateful.

Leave it to somebody to take everything to the extreme.

I beg to differ. I'm sure some kids who get everything handed to them don't succeed but I know a helluva lot that have (myself included). I had everything handed to me and now I'm in college and know what it's like to barely be able to pay bills. Do I cry and say "Daddy I can't afford the electric bill?" No. I cut back on other expenses to pay it. I live like any other normal blue collar people and have adjusted just fine to it.

If it makes you feel any better from my 15th birthday up until my 20th, I didn't get anything.

Neither did I, except for a roof over my head and a generous selection of food, which is more than a lot of people have. Kids these days are friggin spoiled rotten.
