Go broke, go woke

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I went on a date with my new boyfriend. When the check came, he asked, "Do you accept food stamps?" When the waiter said no, he checked in his wallet and said, "Well all I have is five dollars." I ended up picking up the $20 tab. FML

Oh shit, you payed for a tab, and an expensive one at that! This begs for a chivalry/equality debate, no?

I don't think ANY restaurant takes food stamps...if they did, the boys and I would be able to eat like kings more often!~

The guy asked the OP out, and he DID intend on paying. Just so happens they don't accept food stamps. At least he tried you insensitive gold-digging bitch...

Actually, anyone that has food stamps KNOWS that they DO NOT work in restaurants! He was playing dumb for a free meal.

She shouldn't complain. She didn't stated the she was asked out... so what, she paid, next time he pays. And 20$ isn't much, it's barely enough for one person, unless you go to McDonald's.

That's stupid guys shouldn't always have to pay. And 20 dollars? Really? That's not expencive at all.

Im with you on that 198, they want equality but as soon as you hit them back after they attacked you scratched you and kicked you in the nuts, they blame you and sue you. WTF come on!

it's not his fault he doesn't have any money. think how imbarrasing it was for him.
