Today, as a bartender was carding my friends, I excitedly asked if he was going to card me. The guy gave me a blank stare before finally replying, "Look, lady, I don't have time to stroke some middle-aged woman's ego." I asked because it was my birthday. I just turned twenty-one. FML

Awe, that sucks on your 21st. Sounds like the guy was being a jerk. #19 pull your head out of your ass. If someone is complaining over and over for no reason that person will be barred from the establishment. There is no law over being a jerk but there are laws over harassment. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones cause I'm still getting asked for ID in my 30s. I take it as a compliment.

#39 well u ****** jerk so wat if we ask u 2 card us. nd i dnt think any1 is tryin 2 steal ur low paid job. nd 2 honest, itz not our fault that u didn't go to college and decide 2 do something better with your life. i'm sure the ppl who commented hav every right to say wat they have to say. who the hell are you 2 call us sickening, nd it is offense 2 be considered old when ur only 21. and bartenders like you should not b tipped. i wldn't want 2 give me hard earned money away 2 a bartender whos a jerk and critize everyone. sooo last time u right somethin like tht. realli stop nd think if itz our fault for ur low paid job. HA! put that in ur juice box nd suck it!!!!

I doubt that you have any self-earned money - no matter how old you are, noone in his right mind would give you a job.

hey # 88....I'm in college right now...actually I'm Pre-law. I am also only 20 years old. How successful should I be at this age? Judging by your grammar and spelling and text-talk, you will never be anything more than an ignorant moron. And by the way, during season, I make more money bartending than you could make in a year. Don't come to my job and be an annoying ass, I don't come to your job and shake the slurpy machine. Also...where I am from (hint: its a big city) bartending is an extremely hard job to get. People have gotten there medical degree and stayed bartenders bc the money was so good! so suck on that hahaa.

alrighty then pick on me if you want. okay, i see no problem in text talkin. as long as i make good grades in school(in which i do) i'm fine with txt talkin. and i'am no ignorant moron, i'll have you kno! and sorry for speaking my mind. I didn't kno it was a crime! and just don't judge me by what i said. I didn't even insult you, nd i live close to the "Big City" thank you very much! I'll have you kno that it is NEW YORK CITY! and i honestly don't care how old you are or how successful you are. thats good for you!I just didn't think it was nice of #39 to just critize like that. EXCUSE MEEEEE!!!!! and i apologize if i offended anyone.

"and i'am no ignorant moron, i'll have you kno!" I'd put that in my signature if there was one on FML.

hey #90...Aparently not only do you lack the ability to write, but you can't read either. I'm #39 moron. And you did insult me...you called me a ******* jerk. you can't even read what YOU type. You seem to be about 12 years old....am i correct?

88 and 90......ow. you made my brain hurt trying to read what you typed.

I'd have to agree with 91 and 92...I don't care HOW successful you are in school, typing things like that just annoy the **** out of people that took the time to learn how to use the English language. I shudder at the thought of people like THAT growing up to be part of the population running our country. Text shorthand is one thing on a phone...but on a computer? Give me a break! Is it so difficult to put the W on the end of KNOW? Good lord. I'm not usually that much of a stickler for grammar, but if you want to be taken even close to seriously, then I'd brush up on your skills.

#13 Haha obvously this fresh 21 year old looks like shes in her late 30s or early 40s.

I agree with what number 14 said, I doubt that he really took a good look at you, it is likely one of many scripted replies he automatically gives when people ask to be carded. I have waitressed and served alcohol (wines, champaigne, beer) but I have never had to mix drinks, so I can't imagine how hard it would be to service so many drunk people at once while keeping a look out for under age drinkers, carding, and than 'stroking-egos.' Don't be offended- you were at a bar, not a fancy resteraunt/hotel/etc. It's a shame it happened in the first place, but I do think that you still have to respect anyone who is willing to take on that job, it is sooo much work!
