Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
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
Today, my parents bought my 11-year-old brother a MacBook for my birthday. 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, 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 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 sixteenth birthday and my mom promised me she'd buy me a car. She came home with a toy lego car. 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

that happened to me this Christmas. I live 2000 miles away from parents, and after pleading they got me a 600 dollar car (it's older than I am) because I really needed one for transport. On Christmas they gave my little sister their new Hyundai. I got a sheet set.

Favoritism seems to be given to the younger one. Especially if they're a girl.

#83 in most cases this is probably true, but I am the youngest. I am also a girl. My parents like my second oldest brother ALOT more than me. Trust me

You should key his car until its un-recognizable then take the chapstick you got and shove it into his ignition. Just an idea ^_^'

I've been working since I was 16 & bought my own car when I was 18. When my brother turned 18 he got my dad's car, which was newer than the one I bought. Trust me, you are not alone.

I agree with number 38. Also, estrangement. It's a good thing.

To the people saying "Ohh poor you, no car for your birthday.. deal with it", I don't think its really the lack of car that is FML, but rather the obvious disparity in treatment of the two siblings. I mean I would be happy with a 30$ gift for my bday, but if my parents spent $10 000 on a sibling, and 30$ on me, I might feel a little slighted. It's not about the money, it's about the obvious favoritsm.
