Today, I went out drinking with my friends. At the end of the night I got a cab ride home. I must have passed out because when I woke up I wasn’t at my place, but my parent’s house, which is the address on my license…120 miles away. The fare was $220. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I went out drinking with my friends. Being safe as we were a little intoxicated, we took a taxi back. The cab driver was also drunk. FML
Today, I took a cab ride home from a bar. After a few minutes of horrible driving, I felt sick. The cab driver got so mad she locked me in the car and started driving me to the cops unless I payed her extra. Basically, I paid $120 for a five-minute cab ride. FML
Today, I intended to get home early. Instead, I got too drunk, threw up, fell asleep on the train, and had to pay a $120 for a taxi fare. Happy 30th birthday to me, I guess. FML
Today, I wanted to go clubbing with my friends. I started drinking at home to save on the price of drinks, instead I fell asleep on my couch. FML
Today, I decided to be responsible and call a cab to take my drunk ass home from the bar. As I climbed into the cab, I was quickly pulled back out and had the shit beaten out of me by a group of drunk guys who thought they needed the ride more. The police soon arrived and arrested us all. FML
Today, I drunkenly staggered home and crashed on the couch. When I woke up I realized it wasn't my house. FML
Today, I was taking a taxi home after drinking too much. I started to feel sick and, not wanting to be charged the cab cleaning fee, threw up into my handbag instead. When we got to my place I then had to fish through my bag for my wallet to pay the driver. FML
Today, I got hit by a car. My friends left me to get to the hospital myself. The cab was double fare. FML
Today, I was drunk and crashed on my friend's couch to sober up. On the drive home, a cop pulled me over for seemingly no reason. He kept asking if I had been drinking, to which I answered no. Finally, he told me to look in the mirror. My friends had written all over my face while I slept. FML
Today, I went out and got very drunk. I talked to a girl and some other people. As the girl left, someone told me to follow her as she didn't seem to know where she was going. As a drunk, socially inept idiot, I did so for about 20 seconds, only for someone to point me out to her and quickly guide her away. Then I lost like £700. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I mean it sucks, but at least you didn't drive home yourself after drinking. So you spent $220 on cab fare, At least you still have your life. :) And if you had've drove home and gotten a DUI it would have been much more expensive.

This isn't true..I don't know how many times I have asked a taxi to drive me more than 60 miles and they say they can't do it. The driver wouldn't have driven you that far. If it is true, which is highly unlikely, then ydi for being a drunken idiot

The post is written so you deduce that the cab driver looked in her purse for her license. He would have then also seen how much cash she has and be able to decide to take her. But I agree that is HIGHLY IMPROBABLE. Sure, the cabbie gets the nice $220 fare. but then has to drive back empty for free. I'm deducing that the OP drunkenly gave a cab driver her 'home' address of her parents house and exagerated the distance and cost when posting the FML.

So, in most states, if you move, you have 10 days to update your address with the Dept of Motor Vehicles. Many people don't, but you probably could have and then your actual address would be written on the back of your license. (Unless you had paid for a whole new one for whatever reason.)

Maybe it's a college student who still technically lives at home, but has a place at school..I don't have my school address on my license because I might be moving again in a year or so for another apartment

@ 35 That's true, and I did that all through college also. I must have had 5 different addresses in college. But if the OP had actually updated their address this way, she wouldn't be in this whole mess.

Wow, is this fake! Obviously supposed to be a college student, but no cab driver goes anywhere unless they first have a place to drive. And I didn't know it was so easy for cab drivers to look through people's belonging through those little windows used for handing over cash. However, it is a very cute and creative story.

Hey, at least he didn't rape you when you were passed out.

YDI for getting so drunk that you passed out and anyone could take advantage of you. It's nice to have a night out, but surround yourself with your friends. Don't ride alone and pass out in the cab. Idiot.

YDI for making up a fake FML. No cab driver would drive 120 miles. Not only would he be wasting more than 4 hours of his time getting to your parents' house and coming back, but he would not be able to make any money on the return trip (since I doubt anyone in your parents' area intends to take a 120 mile trip back to the city you came from). I've heard of cab drivers who refuse to drive even 10 miles to an isolated residential area, because they know they probably will not get a fare back to the city. This is obviously fake.

This is fake. How did the cab driver get your liscense? And why did you being passed out interfere with giving the address, because the address is always the first thing they ask for.

There's nothing wrong with getting drunk occasionally, and I give the OP credit for taking a cab instead of driving. However, the OP is a dumbass for passing out before even giving the correct address! I think I'm going to go with YDI on this one, but it's not because you got drunk, it's because you didn't make sure you could get home safely before passing out.
