Today, I introduced my dad to my girlfriend. He looked her up and down and said to her, "Beggars can't be choosers. Am I right?" FML

Hey everyone! OP here. Thanks for the support. :) some of these posts made me chuckle a bit. I did stick up for her and made him apologize. It was uneasy the rest of the night but I don't regret it. Bye!! P.S It was towards me. He was in fact calling her a "beggar". Hope I cleared some things up!

How shallow and inconsiderate. OP, be proud that you found someone to call your girlfriend, and most importantly disregard comments such as those. None of that truly matters so long as you're happy with her.

Prove him wrong by pointing him out as an example.

Was he saying that about her, or to her? Either way, FYL.

Poor girl. I bet she felt terrible.

Either he was kidding around, or he's a dick. can't be sure.

Actually he insulted both of you. "Beggars can't be choosers" means that she doesn't have much to offer, so she needs to accept that she's not going to get anything good for herself, or just get the scraps. As an example, if a real beggar is asking for money and you give them a penny it's not their right to complain. So he said both of you are any combination of ugly, stupid, and with dull personalities.

Okay I know that was really mean but that's hilarious

Wow double insult
