Today, is my 21st birthday. I get home after my night out and walk into the garage to see a 2002 Red Corvette convertible. I run up to the car thinking its a gift and there's a note: "Dani this is not your birthday present. Quit drooling on my car. -Dad" Thanks Dad. FML

Why would they give you such an expensive car??? Buy your own car, you're an adult!

You know, to all those people who say that you should buy one yourself, its more of the emotional roller coaster rather than the car itself, if he bought it a week before or ahead, fine, but like, why buy it on your child's birthday and just put them through that? I mean, I think most of you'd be typing an FML like that up if it happened to you

wow.. that was sure some long night out that you had.. since you posted at like 5 pm haha..

#145: No, I wouldn't, I'm not a presumptuous ass that thinks I deserve a $30k car handed to me because I screamed out of my mother's womb 21 years ago. Also, buying a car generally doesn't happen in one day, especially with a used car. He couldn't necessarily control when the car was ready for him. At least he left a note so she wouldn't think it was hers until he was around to tell her himself. Finally, OP sounds... choice word here... finishing the FML with "Thanks Dad" like her dad never did anything for her because he didn't buy her a Corvette. 21 and that immature and unappreciative of your parents? Really? #139: Yeah I'd be excited to get to borrow it for a drive from my parents. Because it wouldn't be my car. Birthday or not. I guess my parents are those rare types that teach personal fiscal responsibility. They paid $40k to send me to school. I used that education to get a job to fund my wants (such as a nice car). #144: Have fun wrapping it around a telephone pole. p.s. To kill ideas that I'm jealous before they start, I drive an Acura TSX. A rather enjoyable car, and one that I paid for myself.

Cars in general tend to spike all the young tender egos when comparisons come up. It's kinda funny listening to all the immature people (of any age, apparently) dishing over nonsense. There will always be someone faster, richer, stronger, more attractive. That doesn't mean any one of us is better, or better off, than any of the others. People need to relax. In the meantime... I'm in de boss office... signing your pink slipz. On the weekend, I'm in my GTS, laying strips of 335 in front of the road rage driverz.

#1 Your dad is awesome #2 YDI for thinking that your parents would buy you a 2002 Corvette for your birthday spoiled punk
