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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. 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
Today, it was my 23rd birthday. I didn't make it to my party because I was rear-ended on the way there by a 16-year-old in a red mustang going 50+ mph. My birthday cake landed in my lap and I was yelled at by his mother for getting chocolate icing on their insurance card. 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, 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
Today, is my 16th birthday. Thinking that my parents would be out of town for it like they had every other year, I decided it would be fun to tan nude in my backyard. Apparantly my parents set up a surprise party for my sweet 16. I was standing naked infront of half my school. FML
Today, I came home to find my dad had backed into my already crappy car. The reason they didn't buy me a nicer car in the first place was they were afraid I'd wreck it. FML
Today, I was having my birthday party. My dad showed up late, blind drunk, and drove his car straight through my garage door. FML
Today, I accidentally crashed my mom's car into my dad's car. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

not really a fml you have parents who would buy you a car for your birthday and i really doubt they wouldn't spend the money to fix it up for you

What your dad probably should have done was just park it in the garage or driveway, rather than drive it into a street lamp. Now it's all banged up...

"Today, I tried to do the whole overused FML-from-the-other-person's-experience meme to impress the interwebz. I wasted several minutes of my life typing it up, only to have #11 call me a retard. FML" -#7's submission later.

HAHA, but to be honest you shouldn't be exactly mad. It sucks, but your parents bought you a ******* car at least. All I got for my 16th birthday party was nothing.

"Today, I bought my daughter a new car for her birthday. Instead of being grateful, she went and complained about her unfortunate life online. FML" You're kind of a bitch.

What the hell? Was he drunk or something? I guess you'll have to wait awhile for your 'surprise.'

#9 Yes. OMG tense shifts. Perhaps (hopefully) not a native speaker? OP, I certainly do hope that you are more grateful at the thought of actually getting your own car than you are mad that your dad dented the fender. But considering that you made an FML about it, I have to assume that you are not. And therefore, YDI.

agreed with #24...you're kind of a bitch. i worked & bought my own car when i was 16. my parents said they were never going to buy me a car so instead of being a brat i saved & bought my own. so really not an fml...stop being ungrateful.
