Today, I waited in line at a drive-through behind a man for ten minutes. I got out of my car, cursed at him, and then asked him to give me one good reason why it would take that long to order. The man slowly explained to me that he had a stutter. FML

Today, I was waiting in line for breakfast at the McDonald's drive-thru. After getting so fed up that the line hadn't budged for 10 mins, I pulled out of the line, only to realize I was waiting behind 2 parked cars that were just to the left of the drive-thru lane. FML
Today, I was stuck in the drive-thru line from hell. The guy in front of me started freaking out and demanded that I back out so he could pull out. I tried to tell him there were cars behind me, but that didn’t stop him from getting out of his car and kicking out my headlights. FML
Today, I went through the drive-through at Dunkin Donuts and asked for an iced coffee. After no response, I started frantically screaming about bad service. After a while, a woman came out to my car and said, "Please pull up to the speaker." I'd been yelling at a garbage bin for 5 minutes. FML
Today, while standing in line at a local Mexican fast food place, I was feeling generous and let a little kid behind me go in front. Turns out he had a list, and was ordering food for his whole family. I had to wait 30 minutes to get my food. FML
Today, a grown man yelled at me because he'd been waiting for 15 minutes and still hadn't been seated or had his order taken. We were at a self-serve breakfast buffet. FML
Today, while at a store, my stuttering problem became so bad the poor store clerk had to supply my own words for me. FML
Today, I decided to work on my social anxiety by ordering some food. I waited in line, practicing my order in my head all the way. When I got to the front, I said my order with no mistakes. The cashier just stared blankly at me until I mumbled, "Never mind..." and left. FML
Today, I went out to dinner. The waiter was pretty cute. He greets us, "Hi my name is... (long pause) Jordan." Thinking he was flirting, I quickly smart back, "Are you confused?" He says, "No actually, I have a stutter." FML
Today, I was in a hurry to get to work. I pulled impatiently behind a long line of cars to make a right hand turn. I sat there for 5 minutes. Turns out there wasn't a line to make a right hand turn. I had been waiting behind a line of parked cars. FML
Today, as I served an elderly man at the fast-food restaurant where I work, he leaned over the counter so that his face was mere inches from mine and asked me if I wanted to buy his car. When I politely told him I wasn't interested, he insisted on making a complaint about me to my manager. FML

Why the hell would you go screaming at the driver? The people working drive-thru could've been slow for all you know.

So you think it is FYL that you humiliated another human being because you were inconvienienced? There is no circumstance where what you did was acceptable. If you were waiting too long in the drive-thru (and 10 minutes is mostly likely a GROSS exaggeration) you should have parked gotten out of the car and walked your lazy ass inside. Guess what sugar brithces, THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU. FHisL and FU.

UH-OH, God forbid should Tubby McLardass not get her food and God forbid should thunder buns here actually have to get out of her car and walk 10 feet to go get some food. Who lit the string on your tampoon OP? You knew full well that the drive through might take forever, Ive waited 45 min in a drive through at Taco Hell and I didnt get all shitpissed at the guy in front of me, I would have just parked and walked in but it was 1am and people were behind me, but thats not the point. Get off your fat ass and park next time if it bothers you that much and if you get stuck in a fast food line, then ******* deal with it, its not like your starving anytime soon anyway.

oh my. that really sucks, but you really deserve it. poor guy. but i supposed you've received enough condemnation from our fellow FML-ers. think before doing something stupid like this next time. try a little kindness and understanding in future. meanwhile, move on and remember to be nicer from now on! :)

Usually If they tell you one moment, they have a good reason. Just because you pull up to the speaker box and there is no one else there does not mean that there is not at least two or three cars ahead of you who are also waiting on orders. Sometimes, it can't be helped if they make you wait a bit. They might be uunderstaffed for the day. it's very difficult sometimes to actually get people to come in to work. Which brings me back to what my point is going to be. Just be patient and wait.

Whoa, I just realized how grammatically incorrect my previous post was. And the spelling errors. -shiver-

Restraint and common courtesey in a drive-thru for one person ends after 5 minutes. It blows when people hold up the line like that. If any of you were waiting behind someone for that long you'd only wish to have the balls that OP did. You would have wanted to curse the guy out too - plus, you also might have felt bad if it turned out the guy you yelled at also had a stutter. Stop ******** on OP. Envy is unbecoming.
