Today, it's my 17th birthday. I asked for a newer car because my car right now sucks. I got a book on photography. I don't own a camera. FML

Today, was my birthday. I asked for a camera - nothing fancy, just a basic digital camera. My mother bought my brother a fancy digital camera, with all the accessories, for over £200. She then gave me his old, analogue camera, that I can't get film for anymore. He hates taking photos. FML
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, it's my sixteenth birthday. I was hoping to get a car. Instead, my parents got me a three month membership at the gym so I can lose weight. FML
Today, it's my 26th birthday. My girlfriend gave me a matchbox car, a glow necklace, and a squirt gun. For her birthday, I bought her a new dress, rented a limo, and took her around to bar hop with her friends. 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
Today, is my brothers 16th birthday. He got keys to the Lexus. I'm 18, have no car, and got pajama pants and chapstick for my birthday. FML
Today, six days before I turn 18, my mom totaled her nice BMW. She had promised it to me as a birthday present. My step-dad is giving me his old rusty truck instead, so now I can look like a hick. FML
Today, I walk out of my apartment to find that my car is decorated with explicit drawings and "Happy 21st birthday" stuff written all over it. To top it off, my vehicle is completely wrapped in plastic wrap. I'm 22 and my birthday is in December. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Wahhhhhh. So let me guess, your parents have already bought you a car last year and you want another one? Do you really think money grows on trees? Buy your own car, mooch.

You sound spoilt. You're 17 and own a car, you should be happy enough.

I think the book of photography is of starving children aroudn the world. So what if your car sucks? You're 17 and you HAVE one. I didn't get a car until I bought one myself with my own money. Boo- *******- hoo to you.

Sell the book. Use the money to get a hair cut. Put your sucky ass in your sucky car and go apply for a sucky job. Welcome life outside the womb. It sucks. Suck it up. Get used to it.

"civic4life"? For ****'s sake if you're going to ask for a car at least pick something that won't make you the laughing stock of the school. Seriously. YDI for asking for a CAR. You already have one at 17. That's a HELL of a lot more than most people can say. Go get a job and start saving. Or fix the one you have. Who cares. Also fixing your car does NOT mean throwing on unpainted "aerodynamic" bumpers and a hood scoop.

Maybe when you asked for a car, your folks heard you say, "I'm a ****" On balance, getting you a book on photography was pretty solid of them. Now you can put pictures of your ****** on the internet and make some money. To buy a car. That you don't deserve. You ****.

I can't say you deserve a crappy gift... but you don't deserve a free car either... get a job, save your money and buy your own car. You can't rely on other people to take care of you - that's your responsibility.
