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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got my fake ID and went out with the boys to dinner and the bars. One of my friends asked to see my ID. He noticed my birthday didn't make me over 21. I paid $170 for a fake ID with my real birthday. 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 got a change of ID. My old ID had its corner cut off and was given a temporary paper ID. I went to a bar in another town to have some drinks. Turns out I couldn't because they couldn't use my old ID or my temporary one to let me drink, even though I'm 22. I've been there before and I work at my town's liquor store. 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 went out to eat with some friends. I ordered a cocktail with my meal. I got carded, but had left my ID at home. Instead, I took my hat off to show that I'm bald. It worked. 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
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 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 had drinks at a friend's house before going out to a concert. I still had a bottle of beer left, so I brought it along with me. I got kicked out five minutes into the show for bringing my own drink, which is apparently against the rules. I paid $75 to get kicked out over a $3 drink. FML
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How can someone not know what an ID looks like? They should be fired.

That is rediculous, in CT our licenses/ IDs are practically impossible to counterfeit. There are like 8 watermarks, 6 holograpic watermarks, and 2 pictures of you. I don't think the rest of the country is much different, so I kind of don't believe this, but maybe where you're from they still have shitty easly counterfeited cards, I don't know.

You should have called an anonymous tip that the bar was serving underage kids.

Report the bar, there will be an investigation and they'll test the bar for taking fake IDs, and if they take one they'll be shut down.

Just a question, but why do you actually do if they deny you and confiscate your ID? You can't drive anywhere without it, and they can't just keep it. How would you prove it is real/get it back?

That's why you get a state ID card and use that at bars. This way you never have to worry about your license being confiscated at a bar. and all you would have to do is explain to the officer that it was confiscated and that you need their help to go get it. as long as you know your driver license number so they can look you up, they'll let it slide.

Sounds like you have the upper hand here: you witnessed that bartender selling alcohol to minors. Report him/her.

Sorry op they have things now that actually tell you if it's fake or not. Suggest to them getting one.

I think the ultimate revenge on that bartender would be to notify the authorities for serving alcohol to a minor.
