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.

If you want a car that badly op, then do the responsible thing & get a job & save for one. You'll appreciate it so much more.

Sorry but that is hilarious

I'm looking at everyone calling this guy a spoiled brat and I disagree. It sounds like his mom offered to get him a car, which is a pretty big deal, then suddenly revoked the offer. Which is wrong

Did she ever say what type of car she was going to buy you?

I would never buy my child a car. Certainly not if I lived in america. Sixteen year olds are still children, I'm sixteen my mself so shut your piehole, and here in Sweden we can't practise driving until we're sixteen and we get our license at eighteen because ... What causes most crashes in america? Teeeeeenagers.

When I turned 16, my parents gave me a key and led me out to the driveway. To a hot wheels car. The key was a $1 throw away from Walmart. They finally did buy me my first car - a $500 clunker - when I was 24 and public transportation was no longer an option where I lived.

Come on man, you're from Alabama. Get a job and buy your own.. I'm 16 and recently bought my own car in Alabama before I moved to Texas. It's not that hard
