Today, it was my 16th birthday. My surprise was a new car, that is now in the side of the garage because my mom lost control while driving it around front. FML

Sick ride, dude
Today, my parents said that they bought me a car. I had been begging for one for a year and they always said that I would have to pay for it myself. I got really excited and went to the garage to see my new ride. It was a Hot Wheels car with a note saying, "Save your money". FML

Keep on trucking
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

Dude, where's my car?
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, 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, 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, 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

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, it's my sixteenth birthday. The only gift I got was a bill from my parents. Apparently, the rent is due on the 1st. FML

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.

no it isn't it's called parenting I rode a bike for two years to save up for my car. I didn't expect my parents to give me a car when I have the intellect and the discipline to provide for myself. giving your hildren should be child abuse because they never learn the value of everything that is handed to them.

A) That was a totally ******-up move by your mom. B) All the trolls that said that you are "spoiled" or it's "inappropriate" do not know other circumstances. What if you live in a place where it's practically expected to get a car when you can legally get a license. I live in Northern Virginia and most of the kids in the area around me get cars on their 16-18th birthday. It's a matter of local perspective. C) There are obviously a lot of people who's parents can't afford to get them a car, i.e. most of the ones who said they had to get a job and earn theirs. That's fine, but they shouldn't be trying to force that on you.

You;re another one of those spoiled brats. The only places where it's expected you get a new car on your 16th birthday is in rich, affluent areas. People like you and the OP need to learn that you might actually have to do something to earn nice things in this world.

im going to say **** your life, not because i think your life sucks but because i want someone to **** with your life, you obviously dont know what a shitty life is if your complaining that your mom didnt buy you a car for your birthday, your lucky she didnt dump your spoiled ass in the dumpster. which if she could forsee what kind of little bitch you would turn out to be she probably would have. on a side not when did lego start making toy cars? when i was a kid u had to make them your self with the little rectangles
