quit expecting everything to be handed to you. A lot of people don't get cars for their 16th birthday. A lot of people don't get their first car until after college and it's a piece of shit.

Hey! You got your car, quit whining!

@Shokz, If xundria is pretty and 18 or over, no. Otherwise, what do you think? @xundria, do you really want a kind that thinks like me? My mom would recommend against it! IF you insist, send pics, I'm shallow. If you are of age, they can be clothing optional. ;)

in the states, the more proper term is 'standard'. I call it a stick or a stick shift because that's what I grew up hearing them called.

You are all ridiculous. The OP isn't complaining because he didn't get a car; he's upset because his mother told him she'd get him one and she didn't. He was, most likely, extremely excited; in fact, he probably told his friends and now has to explain to them that she was kidding. Yeah, it's not HUGE deal, but it definitely sucks to realize something you've been hoping for was never actually going to happen. If he expected that, just because he turned sixteen, he'd automatically get a car then yes, he is being a spoiled jerk. That is not, however, the impression I get when I read this. And to everybody telling him to "get a job and buy a car": shut up. I have three jobs, but that doesn't mean I'll earn enough to buy a car. Ever heard of college? Some kids don't have the luxury of both buying a car and paying for college by themselves. Unless you're advising him to drop out of school and get a full-time job, don't even bother with that argument. Except for the occasional lucky break, high-schoolers can only manage to find minimum-wage jobs.

grow up and go back to elementary school to relearn basic English why the hell would you do something so crude to anyone in your family? I would also like to point out that there's no need for anyone to be so harsh on the person who posted this fml. she got her hopes up and was disappointed that's all.

lol. I agree with secret_fire_king. well-said. and that was seriously uncool of the mom.
