Whatever happened to properly asking out a girl/guy? I fancied a bartender at an Irish pub once but didn't just leave my number with a tip. I started up a conversation and then asked him out. I would think the one asked put would remember the asker more than just a receipt with a number.

19 - I find it interesting that you call Perdix judgmental and then go on to call others "insecure douchebags". Hypocritical much?

Why would the manager care if their employees give out their phone number? What they do on their time off with the number is none of their business. I have many of my bar guest's numbers and vice versa and hang out with them on my time off. It's encouraged to build a close relationship with customers and it brings in a lot more business. ***I can honestly say, in my years of experience, the dashing after leaving the number, has never worked. It's almost like those flyers people leave on your car windshield. Who has ever called those?

#19, are you nuts? Often, I get little handwritten notes on my check. Nothing great, just "Thanks a lot" or something, but she could have just as easily jotted down a number. The only time I successfully dated a waitress is when I asked her out face-to-face.

Sourgirl? You haven't commented in ages!

Oh, I'm always here (usually). Just giving the newbies a chance to voice their opinions. (:

78- Words of wisdom: If you judge people judging others, then you are no better than them. Just felt I should throw that out there. Chop chop! On with the debate!

Sandoval - calling someone a chicken now constitutes being a judgmental douche? What would I be if I called you a ******* hypocritical, garrulous assbag?

^ You'd still be a doctor :)

#92, I really don't care whether you think I'm a douche or insensitive or judgmental. I'm just stating the obvious truth as I see it. I'm old and I know what works and lots of things that don't work. Notice that when the waitress ran him down, she didn't offer her number to him, even though she likely saw his number on the slip? She's not interested in him at this point. Get over your hurt feelings over my abrasive language and learn from the wisdom of the elders.

Did I hear Ben & Jerry? Mmmm, those guys are yummy.

36- Yes sir. I love Ben & Jerry in my mouth. Yum.

13 - I must ask, are you talking from experience here?

72-No it's not from experience, though I know the process works. Personally, I wouldn't cry because of rejection lol. I just sulk a little bit and think about how much he's missing out. I then sneak into his house and cut the crotch out of every pair of boxers he has and put powdered estrogen pills in his protein and then hide in his closet as I watch him cry over Lifetime movies with my Ben & Jerry and spoon.

I read this comment just as "i set fire to the rain" by adele came on the radio! :)

I thumbed you down. Wanna know why? You added Taylor swift into your comment. Fml

Mischief, i thumbed you down for being a rude douche.

76, how is it an FML moment for you just because of that?

Yeah I thought this fml sounded familiar

If all you bought was the $2.50 soup, sounds like an awesome tip to me.

Yea but if you're trying to impress a girl, leaving her a substantial tip, regardless of what your meal cost, is gonna get you some points

I remember that!!!!

He didn't say that he was with his girlfriend or that he even had one.

It was a reference to a previous FML where the OP of that FML went to a restaurant with her boyfriend and the boyfriend gave his number to a waitress. The OP of this FML did the same thing with the waitress, except he is not in a relationship. But thanks for making me ruin the joke.

Oh yeah, now I remember.
