Alcohol and Love: Smart move

Smart move

By Triedtobecool - 06/04/2009 02:22 - Canada

Today, I went to buy beer underage for a party to impress a girl. I picked up the case of beer and went to the cashier, he ran it through without asking for ID. I left the store with a smirk on my face, I arrived at the party and showed the case to the girl. It was non-alcoholic. FML

Today, I went to buy some beer using my fake ID, when the cute cashier and I started flirting. When he asked me how old I was, I said without thinking, "Nineteen." FML

Today, I was working at the local liquor store. An obviously drunk girl stumbles in, grabs two cases of beer and puts them on the counter. Then she grabs a pregnancy test, pees on it right there, shows me, and says, "I'm not pregnant, I want beer." FML

Today, when I went to the gas station to buy beer, some underage punk outside asked me to buy him booze. I told him to get bent, but the dumbass cashier had seen me talking to him, and refused to let me buy alcohol because, "This is obviously a sting." FML

Today, I went to a bar to celebrate my 26th birthday. I got ripped off by the bartender all night because she secretly gave me non-alcoholic versions of my drinks. Apparently I look like I'm 16, so she thought my ID was fake. Happy birthday to me. FML

Today, I tried buying alcohol for the first time. I have a baby face, so I had my ID ready. The store owner admitted that my ID looked real enough, but he wouldn't believe it wasn't just an elaborate fake. He very nearly called the cops on me. FML

Today, I threw a birthday party for my boyfriend. As a joke, my friend and I served him non-alcoholic beer to see how he'd react. After a while, he faked being drunk, using it as an excuse after I caught him making out with one of my so-called "friends". FML

Today, I bought a small bottle of liquor to share with my husband to celebrate our move. It took three hours at the store as the cashier, manager, GM, and a police officer checked my ID believing it was fake. I'm 25. FML

Drink up

Today, my friends and I went out for drinks. I'm the only one who's actually 21 or over, and they have fake IDs. Not only was I the only one to be carded, the bartender thought that my actual ID was fake. I got kicked out while my friends kept drinking. FML

Today, I went to the bar to celebrate my friend's birthday party. I gave the bouncer my ID and he kicked me out, saying that I should at least use an ID card with the correct gender. I'm 22 and female, he thought I was an underage boy. FML

Today, I sold a customer some beer. He then asked to see the manager, and told me he was a 19 year-old undercover cop. My knee jerk reaction was to panic and curse aloud, before realizing he was balding, toothless, probably 50, certainly not a cop, and laughing at me for being such a gullible moron. FML

YDI for trying to buy beer underage AND YDI because you somehow thought that would impress a girl.

I'm sure that at least 50,000 of the people that have already clicked "You deserved it," determined that by reading the first sentence. FMLs are ALWAYS a MAJOR YDI when they include trying to impress someone, or doing something illegal.

Yeah, a guy buying beer underage wouldn't impress me. It'd put me off. If he thinks that buying alcohol underaged makes him special, then he can do that with his mates, I'd want nothing to do with the idiot. :)

This has gotta be fake, you still need to be over 21 with an ID to buy non-alcoholic beer, as it still contains a small amount of alcohol.

Nice job dumb ass. And if a girl is impressed by buying beer when you're underage... she's a dumb ass. I for one hate alcohol. I just hate it. It's dumb. And drinking underage is dumb. Stop screwing up your life.

Wow, I just imagined the look on your face when you found out... Not only did you fail epicly, you get crushing disappointment that you don't look 18 (or 21, not sure on Canada legal age) like you thought you did. Never has anyone deserved it more.
