Today, I drove the six hours to LA to attend my Uncle's birthday party. When I tried to get off at the exit, it took me two hours just to get onto the street where the club was. By the time I showed up, the party was already over, so I ended up going to a Denny's. I drove eight hours for a Denny's. FML

Today, I drove six hours with a friend to see one of her favorite bands in concert. We were turned away at the door because the online site didn't say we had to be 21 to enter. I drove six hours back with nothing to show for it but an empty gas tank and useless tickets. FML

Today, after finishing work, my friend was having a party next door and my driveway was blocked. I parked six houses down and went to the party for 20 minutes. After coming out after three beers, I went to move my car back to my house and go to sleep. I got a DUI for driving 30 feet. FML

Technically, you drove 14 hours for Denny's, because you still had to drive home, right? Which sucks even more.

You could have joined four waiters in the men's room for a Grand Slam. That could have been worth the drive.

Why would you go to Denny's when LA is jam packed with millions (ok maybe not millions) of awesome unique places to eat? YDI!
