Today, I dropped a $400 bottle of wine while trying to get the cork out. FML

Same thing different taste

Why would anyone need to buy a $400 bottle of wine? Being a cheap ass myself I found a delicious tasting one for about $4. And sure, I get paying as much as $80 for wine... but 400? That's just a waste of money. Remember, a higher price doesn't always means better taste.

Who the **** drinks 400$ wine

It's all about quality over quantity, even from a non-drinker you are just stupid for spending 400$, unless this was some kind of wedding or special event YDI.

You are one to talk, you don't even know the dollar sign goes in front of the number.

Did anyone think that maybe it had been a bottle of wine that had been in his family, or whatever, for so long that it was that valuable?

Now how do you have such cheap rent? Damn.

That is why you let the waitress open the bottle at titty bars.

OP: invest in a good electric wine bottle opener! Trust me, it is worth it!! No fiddling with a corkscrew, no pulling or tugging, no risking the bottle slipping. It's great. Hold it on top of the bottle, push the button, boom, done. Mine is rechargeable, has a pretty, blue-lit base when it's charging, and it's not very big. I've never lost an expensive bottle, but opening wine can be a pain. PS: there is a HUGE taste difference between grocery store $10 bottles and nice $200-$400 bottles of wine. Not even close. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with some Barefoot or Yellow Tail if you're on a budget, but it cannot compare to the crisp delicious flavor of an excellent $400 bottle of Polly-Fume or Riesling.

Normally I would say YDI, but those thins are a bitch too open. Just your luck, huh OP? That really sucks.

Your first mistake was buying a $400 bottle of wine. I don't care what vintage it was or what variety, there is no need to spend that much on something like that.
