I would have been grounded forever...

“Beggars can’t be choosers” is something I’ve carried with me from childhood

Honda car

Talk about looking a gift car in the grille!

A mom thought she was giving her daughter the perfect college graduation present when she paid cash for a used Honda. Instead of saying “thank you,” the new grad reportedly complained that the car wasn’t good enough and asked her mom to sell it and buy her a Mercedes instead.

That’s right... a free, reliable vehicle wasn’t enough because it didn’t come with a luxury badge on the hood.

The mom turned to social media for advice, and the internet didn’t hold back. Most commenters sided with Mom, pointing out that a Honda is known for reliability and that many graduates would be thrilled just to have a car... any car... waiting for them after graduation.

A Mercedes may be flashier, but it also comes with a much bigger price tag, higher insurance cost, and pricier maintenance.

The verdict from the court of public opinion? Keep the Honda and maybe add a lesson in gratitude for free!

I love music. It’s really what got me into radio to begin with. You should see my record collection: from Michael Jackson and Elton John, to Led Zeppelin and The Stones, to old school hip-hop and dance music ... (Well you get the idea!)
