Today, a guy asked me out and said he was going to take me to a fancy restaurant where they make the food in front of you. I love Japanese food, so I was really excited. We went to Subway. FML

Why did OP assume it was going to be Japanese? And why is she complaining about getting a free sandwich?

17- Some fancy Japanese restaurants show you barbecue your food, so it really isn't a mystery why OP would think that.

Lots of restaurants do that, and OP could have just asked "What restaurant are we going to?" and she wouldn't have had any further problems.

I'm also wondering why the OP automatically assumed that making food in front of you automatically implies Japanese food. On the other hand, the guy did say "fancy restaurant" so it was misleading.

The only restaurant I've ever been to that makes the food in front of you is Japanese restaurants. I know there are others, but I think it's the most common which is why OP thought that. But still, free food is free food, unless he made her pay.

He never said he was taking you to a Japanese restaurant, but if he drove past a really fancy place that serves food in front of you, stopped then drove to Subway then that would have been awesome. FYL if only for the fact that Subway is terrible.

It sounds like you just said yes because you thought he was taking you to a fancy restaurant.

I agree with 1. Maybe he can make up for it later by "eating fresh"

Why would you assume it's Japanese food? lol

Because at japanese steakhouses they have a skilled chef perform cool tricks with knives and you sit around in a half circle and watch him showcase his cooking ability and the food tastes absolutely dandy. I take it you've never been to a place like that.

No 85, it was a FAILED attempt at sarcasm. We're not being harsh, the comment was just stupid.

Don't worry 85, the wickedness of the FMLers grows on you, you'll love to hate it eventually. Next thing you know, you will be cussing out some idiot for using "your" instead of "you're."

In certain parts of North America it is the only option around, so to some it is really fancy.

An old bf of mine once told me he was taking me to this nice new restaurant, the golden arches. Turned out to be McDonalds.
