Love: Today, I was at a restaurant with my boyfriend. He wound up drinking...

By so embarrassed - 05/01/2013 21:56 - United States - South Salem

Today, I was at a restaurant with my boyfriend. He wound up drinking a whole bottle of wine, and when the bill came he drunkenly yelled at the waiter, claiming it should be free, because he's in the military "fighting for your freedom". He's a mechanic in the National Guard. FML

Same thing different taste

By fuck you, dad - 27/09/2012 18:36 - United Kingdom - Brighton

Today, I was eating out at a restaurant with my family. My dad had drained most of our bottle of wine, so thinking he'd be a little less uptight than usual, I reached over to pour myself some. He swatted my hand away and started yelling at me for being a "degenerate drunk". FML

Rowdy

Today, I was bartending. A guest was getting belligerent so I had to cut him off. He called me a bitch and threw the rest of his drink in my face before storming off. The belligerent asscandle was my boyfriend. FML

Bad tipper, good shitter

Today, some guy walked into the restaurant I work at and ordered enough food to serve the entire National Guard of Texas. He thanked us by leaving a $0.50 tip and shitting on the bathroom floor. FML

He's a good man

By no booze, no boyfriend - 04/06/2013 20:31 - United States

Today, my now ex-boyfriend called me from jail, expecting me to bail him out. He'd tried to buy a load of booze at the liquor store and came up short by ten cents. The cashier refused to be short-changed, and he figured the only reasonable reaction was to punch her in the face. FML

Date night

By feminist - 17/06/2009 15:25 - Canada

Today, I got into a heated argument at a restaurant with a guy I am seeing because he refused to let me pay for the bill and I thought it was sexist. When he finally agreed, I gave the waiter my card, only to have him return a minute later telling me it was declined. FML

Incomplete freedom

By Anonymous - 04/05/2024 15:00 - United States

Today, my dad drunkenly ranted about how I should volunteer for the military because of the crisis in the Middle East. I refused; I'm in college on two scholarships and have listened to stories of why his service still gives him nightmares. I had to hide all the phones to keep him from calling the recruiters. FML

Today, my boyfriend got drunk and had a fistfight with a dumb teenager, which was bad enough, but he also lost the fight, which was just pathetic and embarrassing. FML

Today, I went on a dinner date with the guy I like. He ate all his food then started eating off my plate, going on to eat over half of my food. When the bill came, he made me pay for it. FML

Today, I went to a restaurant with my boyfriend. Within seconds of getting my drink, I spilled it all over the table and my scarf. When the waiter was helping clean up the spill, he knocked over my boyfriend's drink. All over my pants. FML

Considering you have to put up with that kind of embarrassment, I hope they DID give you a free meal.

I think you misread. No one is talking about a free medal. Meal*

Who cares if he's a mechanic? Still doing something for the country right? The military wouldn't get places without vehicles.

That still doesn't give him the right to make a scene and demand free food wherever he goes.

Don't care if he is or isn't In the military. He shouldn't be going out making a fool of himself.

Tell me how do you get drunk off 1 bottle of wine. There isn't much alcohol content in wine. Depending on the maker of course.

I used to work at a liquor store, there is a wine that is 40% alcohol, so it could be possible.

I sometimes get drunk off of 3 glasses of wine, so its very possible.

According to the department of health and human services 1 12 oz beer is equal to 1 4-5 oz glass of wine which is also equal to 1 1.5 oz shot. Do your research.

So mechanics aren't important? The National guard isn't a branch of the military? You kinda sound like a snobbish brat, not that I'm justifying his rude behavior! But I think maybe you should try dating Drs or whatever profession you may think is good enough for you.

I thought the same thing. Any branch, any profession in the military is admirable in my book.

Ok I have to say you are the one who should be embarrassed. National Guard is a branch or the Army. They get deployed like everyone else. I'm National Guard. And I take offense to you. You're boyfriend should freaking dump you, you ungrateful and disrespectful *****.

Oh my gosh...Kudos to him for finishing a bottle of wine! I watch most adults drink wine and it takes them a freakin hour to drink one glass which is not even 125 mL! Gurl..you should be proud. But yeah...
