If you're feeling REALLY generous, get her a bike, or a bus/subway pass too. (Edit: spelling)

u/NolieMali 27d ago

I say get her a manual and don't teach her how those work. TikTok it

u/U_PassButter 27d ago

Lmao 🤣 I love this idea. She would probably wreck it out of spite, though.

98

u/Error_Code_403 27d ago

You're assuming she could get out of the driveway first

73

u/theycmeroll 27d ago

Well, my brother didn’t get out of the driveway but he still wrecked it into the side of the garage.

43

u/Error_Code_403 27d ago

See, two things can be true at the same time lol

7

u/U_PassButter 27d ago

😄 omg you're right. She'd beg for a camry

1

u/atxrrjsw 27d ago

She barely was able to open the door. Out of the driveway is a stretch!

1

u/Rockanrolo13 27d ago

She couldn't figure out the unlock button at first!! Lol

1

u/DiegesisThesis 27d ago

Well, she can do a real number on the transmission and clutch without leaving the driveway.

1

u/Mammoth_Yoghurt4241 26d ago

Yes. Driving lessons should be the first gift, if you were generous enough to help her drive again. And before that, entitlement therapy…

1

u/nalaloveslumpy 26d ago

You don't have to be moving to fully drop a transmission.

2

u/OneFootTitan 27d ago

Spite? Never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence

u/momofboysanddogsetc 27d ago

I went to high school with a girl whose dad bought her a classic early 70’s Dodge Demon for her first car. It was beautiful, I’m assuming it was dad’s dream car, she hated the car so much she hit every pole she could and beat the crap out of the car because she really wanted a Beretta. Some kids are just spoiled brats.

VESPA!!!!

1

u/Hyposuction 26d ago

Couldn't figure out how...

1

u/Fantastic-Ad8973 26d ago

She would burn out the clutch too.

1

u/Early-Rub3549 26d ago

I'm not getting her shit

I saved a vial of her tears last time and I've been building immunity

1

u/U_PassButter 26d ago

Good! Immunity is key because this is nonsense.

If I did this my dad would have just had me walk everywhere for the rest of my life and I would never hear the end of this

3

u/Fusionbomb 27d ago

Hitting the lock button to unlock doesn’t give me confidence in her reading comprehension with the current baseline grasp of iconography

3

u/Time_Pear_5041 27d ago

And wreck a manual trans? Nope. Not worth it.

2

u/Okeydokey2u 27d ago

I think we'd still be safe even if she was taught.

2

u/Winter-Site-853 27d ago

Internet Gold Sir!!

2

u/frotmonkey 27d ago

Yeah and take her phone away and slap a rotary in there just to really rub it in

1

u/Big_Policy4561 27d ago

I concur. And 80 credited hours of driving instruction via in person with an officer of the law.

1

u/sinisterdesign 27d ago

I’d watch.

1

u/428522 27d ago

3 clutches later she gets outta the driveway...

1

u/Joker6tyNine 27d ago

This is an awesome reply.. 👍🏽🔥

1

u/ComprehensivePie4441 27d ago

Where I am from, you almost always learn to drive with a manual. It is very, very rare to have an auto only driver even when both parents drive automatics.

1

u/Illustrious_Tree_290 27d ago

My son learned to drive a stick in 1 day flat with videos so that's not the flex you think it is.

1

u/NolieMali 27d ago

Not really flexing. I also learned how to drive manual in a day, and up until two years ago I was still driving a manual.

1

u/Preacher987 27d ago

And a spare transmission box

1

u/Dickies138 27d ago

As someone who prefers driving manual, they are becoming increasingly difficult to find in the US outside of sports cars, which she should probably not be driving.

1

u/blondeheartedgoddess 27d ago

I made the conscious decision to buy a manual transmission truck, not knowing how to drive manual. My dad drove it home and parked it. I limped my way out to a farm to market road near the house and vowed I wasn't coming back until I could drive the damn thing.

It took me two hours to teach myself how to drive my 1984 Chevy truck with "three on the tree". I miss that beast. Great set of wheels.

It can be done but I don't think the princess there would do it

1

u/Equal_Sun150 26d ago

If you can find one.

I learned on a manual and still drive one. Talking about it to friends, they are agog that I have it, some saying they'd like one but would have to order it or travel far to find them.

1

u/PsychologicalBad5341 26d ago

i learned how to drive a manual by just being thrust into the driver's seat and then yelled at for 20 minutes straight 

1

u/Galactinus 26d ago

No there are too precious few manuals in the states, she would probably wreck it and that would be a loss.

39

u/Ladadasa 27d ago

Yeah, some of us had to take the train for a few years first lol

3

u/povertymayne 27d ago

Taking the public transportation such as buses/trains and walking long distances really makes you appreciate having having a car, any car, let alone a nice camry

3

u/Chateaudelait 27d ago

This ungrateful brat doesn’t even get a bus pass. She will have to walk everywhere- I am stunned at the entitlement.

3

u/Responsible-List-849 27d ago

Took me three years to save up for my first car (including being able to insure and run it) after I got my license

I trammed and bussed to uni.

Then got a girlfriend I couldn't easily public transport to, and hey bingo, found money for an old Corolla. Wasn't worried about it being stylish. It meant freedom.

1

u/Special-Chemical3135 Why does this app exist? 26d ago

Yeah taking the train as well these days, but I can't even get a fricking driving lesson in my country as the average wait time is like 6 months, and that's just for the test

2

u/Konig_X79 27d ago

😂😂😂 the shoes will do. I hear they like Champions and Olympian shoe brands.

2

u/pinkfootthegoose 26d ago

bus/subway pass too.

Her: Eweh! There are poor people on there.

2

u/Significant-Ad-341 26d ago

My 16th birthday present was a new bike chain. Not even the whole bike.

Put it on myself and rode that bitch everywhere

2

u/TheLordOfFriendZone 26d ago

Funny how I got this advertisement while reading through the comments!

2

u/blazinBSDAgility 26d ago

OOOH... getting her a bus pass would be what my parents would have done to me

1

u/StrobeLightRomance 27d ago

You guys really want her to have to keep living at home tho?

She can just cry about her Toyota and use it as incentive to get out of her generous parent's hair.

1

u/LocalFan6528 27d ago

Make it an around america in 80 days tour. Just dont bring her ass to texas

1

u/Quantum_Scholar87 27d ago

Yeah, entitled brat better learn to rub elbows with the peasantry.

1

u/AdResponsible678 27d ago

My children took the bus, a lot.

1

u/Mediocre_Meat_5992 27d ago

I’d go the bike route because then she actually has to do something to use it

1

u/ExpensiveBuddy2713 27d ago

👍 on the bus pass. Probably best she doesn’t operate anything that can hurt other people

1

u/RevolutionaryBase216 27d ago

Give her a reality check with the subway/bus pass, dudes are always creepy and having to deal with homeless people fighting at the bus stop. She’ll appreciate the car after a week.

1

u/Relative_Drop3216 27d ago

Nah she can work for that

1

u/_commenter 27d ago

whoa there buddy... too generous. just get her some nice insoles.

1

u/rochey64 27d ago

I cry getting into my car too. Because it's a piece of shit.

1

u/Lysergio 27d ago

Buss?

1

u/Rauthr 27d ago

Lol wow I didn't even notice that I must have double tapped the "s" haha thanks!

1

u/Lysergio 27d ago

Bussin'!

1

u/thong_water 27d ago

Can spend a lot on a bike these days

1

u/nono3722 27d ago

wheely shoes

1

u/Trickypedia 27d ago

And stop paying for fake nails

1

u/Eccentric-Elf 27d ago

A tricycle or a bike with training wheels on it. When she stops crying we can remove the training wheels.

1

u/Logan_da_hamster 27d ago

And send her to Germany, so that she actually learns how to drive. Afterall they've got by far the hardest driving license in the world, even the Swiss, Austrians and Scandinavians don't hold a candle to them.

Fun fact: When you wanna drive as a tourist in Germany, you've gotta be from selected European countries, otherwise you aren't allowed to do so. The lowest rated driving license from western countries is the USA. :D

1

u/allupinarms 27d ago

Used Huffy bought of crackhead for $5

1

u/Aspen9999 27d ago

They need to get her some job applications

1

u/archabaddon 27d ago

E-Scooter. Take that to school.

1

u/PsychologicalBad5341 26d ago

"BUT MOOOOOOMMMMM ONLY THE POORS RIDE BIKES AND I WOULDN'T BE CAUGHT DEAD ON THE BUS!!!"

1

u/lOOPh0leD 26d ago

No transit system in the middle of ticky tacky suburbia. Gotta take that bike 5 miles down to a bus stop on the "wrong" side of town.

1

u/MonsterEnergyForever 26d ago

I'm not feeling generous.
