Today, I got a care package for graduation. Among the stuff inside was a toolbox; I never took shop classes or showed any interest in them because of severe disability. I also got a Snickers bar; I hate peanut butter. I even got a bunch of clothes hangers; I had more than enough as it was. FML

I was never interested in shop class either, but my dad got me a toolbox when I moved out, and that became the best gift I received, ever. You never realize how much furniture you have to put together, handles you need to tighten, and pictures you have to hang until you move out on your own.

At least show some gratitude. It's the thought that counts. Offer them to your roommates. someone is bound to make use of them.

Try learning how to be an adult instead of the stereotype of Generation Z.

Tools are a necessity, whether you took shop class or not. But seriously, what were you expecting? Some fancy new tech? A new car? You sound like a spoiled brat.
