Today, my friend and I walked 3 miles to a Starbucks. We went inside, paid for our coffees and walked the 3 miles back to my house. We forgot to pick up our coffees. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I walked to Starbucks. On the way a homeless guy asked me for change and I lied and said I had no money. On my way back, Strawberry Frappuccino in hand, the same guy recognized me. He followed me for 3 blocks, swearing and yelling at me. FML
Today, I was walking with a friend after buying two cups of steaming hot coffee. While crossing the busiest street in town I tripped and fell, spilling the coffee all over me. My friend didn't notice I fell right in front of her and tripped over me spilling her coffee on me as well. FML
Today, I went to Starbucks to get my free birthday coffee and due to a mistake I received two. Thinking it was my lucky day, I hurried off to work. As I was walking in, I tripped and spilt one coffee all over my new dress. Then I walked into a door and spilt the other. FML
Today, I had to admit that my coffee addiction is really bad when I woke up in a Starbucks with no memory of how I got there. FML
Today, I saw an elderly man struggling to make it across a busy street. I jumped up from my table at Starbucks to help him, leaving my things behind. When I got back to my table feeling good, I found that my coffee had disappeared. So had my wallet. FML
Today, I walked all the way across campus to eat the first meal I've had all day. After waiting for my food in a congested line for 30 minutes, I got to the register to pay. Turns out my wallet was a twenty minute walk away, back in my apartment. FML
Today, I went to meet a potential client at Starbucks all the way across town about designing his website. I was extremely excited because I really need the work. I sat for an hour. Turns out he was across the street, at the other Starbucks. FML
Today, I walked two miles to the store, filled my cart with groceries, and got to the cashier… only to find I had forgotten my wallet. I tried to explain but got the nastiest stank-eye from the cashier, the manager, and everyone in line behind me. I walked two miles home, hungry and embarrassed. FML
Today, I was walking out of Starbucks when I sneezed, causing coffee to burn my nose. I screamed, dropped it, and sent scorching coffee all over my legs, while dropping everything else I was holding. FML
Today, some friends and I went to IHOP. We joked about not having enough money, and as it turns out we were $5 short. We put down what we had and left. Upon getting to the car, I realized I'd forgotten my phone, and had to go back. I made eye contact with our waitress, our money in her hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Obviously you two didn't need the caffeine too bad, eh? Besides, a nice walk is good for you.

That's a latte time and money to spend to end up with nothing to drink

Coffee is not worth a 6 mile round trip. Tea is though.. Just saying.

Well that's because you're from Scotland.

YDI :( for not realising that you didn't pick them up, you just wasted so much time, in theory your 6 mile walk was just pointless. Next time make sure you pick up your drink :) I quite like StarBucks but I'd prefer a Costa :)

And what if they can't legally drive? I wouldn't risk jail for a cup or coffee honestly

You give all stoners a bad rep. If I was out, I'd walk three miles in the rain to get that shit! Haha.

I'm sorry, but this is the hardest I've laughed all day. FYL, but YDI entirely.

I would say neither FYL and YDI. I know tons of people who wouldnt even consider walking 100 m to next mall. And i could imagine you had fun time talking, if you even forget the coffee :)

Has anybody stopped to think that they were just bored? ... I use to walk to starbucks with my friends before we could drive and the closest one is like 2.5 miles away. Never forgot our coffees. But it killed time if there was nothing to do.

I would defend Starbucks, but they made me and my mother terribly sick once. Never again, and YDI.

H.. How...? I understand forgetting your wallet or forgetting to pay for your order, but just.. how absent-minded are you both?
