Reality check
Today, I finally turned 21, so my friends and I decided to go to a club. There, I met this hot waitress and we were really hitting it off. I ordered a drink. She replied, "No problem, kiddo." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was at a club with a friend. A cute guy kept smiling and looking over at me. He left his seat and went to the bar and brought back two drinks. He waved me over and then said, "Can you tell your hot friend that I bought her a drink?" FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with some friends. I noticed a very cute waitress about my age, so I walked over to her and asked if she had a boyfriend. The extremely fit, attractive waiter standing next to her immediately turned, held out his hand and goes, "Yeah. Meet me." FML
Today, my parents took me to a bar to celebrate my 21st birthday. They brought my little brother, but when the bouncer wouldn't allow him in, they made me wait outside with him while they went in for drinks. FML
Today, it's my 21st birthday. All my friends showed up at my house already drunk, so I had to be the designated driver. FML
Today, I went to a club with some friends. I ordered two drinks from the waitress and gave her a fifty. She never returned with the change, and the rest of the staff claimed they didn't know who I was talking about. FML
Today, is my 21st birthday. My friends took me to a bar to celebrate, knowing I don't drink. I'm now in charge of driving my friends home after they've had an awesome night. FML
Today, I ordered a beer with my parents at dinner. The waitress said, "Oh, happy 22nd birthday." My parents eyes got really big, and they started to blush. They'd forgotten it was my birthday. FML
Today, it's my 21st birthday. The only person who drank with me was my elementary school principal, who I happened to run into at a bar where we were the only two people there. FML
Today, I turned 21 and had a huge party because I could finally drink legally. Got arrested for public intoxication. FML
Today, as a bartender was carding my friends, I excitedly asked if he was going to card me. The guy gave me a blank stare before finally replying, "Look, lady, I don't have time to stroke some middle-aged woman's ego." I asked because it was my birthday. I just turned twenty-one. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Don't want to be the bearer of bad news man but she's a waitress. I'm pretty sure she always "hits it off" with guys: more tips.

I was thinking the same thing; she obviously knew OP was an adult or she wouldn't have let him buy the drink. Maybe she is older than OP and was just teasing him, since he just turned the legal drinking age.

That lack of hesitation and that she didn't even ID you is a good thing. So I don't really think she thought you were a kid

OP could be over-analyzing; maybe she calls everyone "kiddo"

You are in a club. Maybe she is not literally calling you kiddo, but she's got to call you something, so she goes with kiddo

Sometimes waitresses in restaurants call me "babe." Oh, does that mean I'm a kid though I'm 25 yo! :P Don't worry OP, I think she's just teasing you as #6 said.

15-Since he's already in a 21+ club, she wouldn't ever have to ID anyone because you have to be 21 just to get in the door.

I feel like after OP submitted this FML, she came back with the drink, they continued 'hitting it off', and they went to his place and had the best sex of his life. Or he got her number. That too. But I just think he took being called 'kiddo' a little too personally.

Honestly, some people just use names like that out of habit! I wouldnt worry about it if u were actually "hitting it off"

Maybe she was older than him so that would make him "kiddo"
MDTeddy 13
Who says kiddo at a club?
hecallsmedarlin 7
I took the fact that she called him "kiddo" because he just turned 21, and she found this out when she ID'd him. Therefore since he's "barely legal" she thought it would be funny to tease him. She is probably a little older than him. 28- It doesn't say that he was in an 21 and over club? I have been in a club that is 18 and up. So yes, they still have to ID you..which is the next thing I was going to mention, it doesn't state she didn't ID him.. She in fact, probably did ID him... I worked in a 21 over club as a cocktail waitress, you still have ID every person. Because, some kids under the age find a way in. It is illegal to not ID somebody and you can lose your job.

Or she's a cougar that looks Really good for her age

If you're going out for your 21st birthday chances are just about everyone that is out will be older than yoü. So grow a little thicker skin.
IceCreamMage 17
I'm with you on this one, 22. I used to call everyone kiddo at one point. Now I don't, but my point is that she was probably doing the same thing.

I bet OP thinks strippers like him too

I love you kbeatz forever and always

27- I bet anyone would love your profile stripper, so beautiul, she has nice curves! Could you maybe... you know... introduce me to her?
hecallsmedarlin 7
27- Your cow stripper and OP would probably hit it off great! :) Edit; Oh shit, 39 beat me to it mentioning the stripper cow...:( oops.

Do what I do, don't give her just a tip. Give her the whole thing

I don't really see a problem with that. If anything it should only be a really small blow to your ego because she seemed to only mean it nicely.
LilyCow 5
Exactly. Op is of legal drinking age now. Who cares what one waitress says?
TarieBoo 2
This is a stupid fml.
jannielovesjack 0
Even though the term she used is normally directed to a child he apparently didn't look like obese if she still got him his alcohol.
tymarie2012 31
33 what would him being obese have to do with a waitress doing her job?
jannielovesjack 0
Wow. Auto correct fail. I meant he apparently didn't look like one if she still got him his alcohol drink. Sorry. I'll go hide in my corner now. :(
ebonyirony 29
She was probably just screwing around with you. But lots of wait-staff are nicer for tips.
sirpantselot 22
Or it's a term of endearment. "Here's looking at you, kid."
Yellow_Fish79 11
You don't want them old bitches anyways. ;D
GothicAngel17 24
And what's wrong with a hot older cougar? I'm sure they're good at what they do and they sure could teach you a thing or two ;)
ICastillo 25
Well Op just tell her age is just a number. You're in the club already so she knows you're old enough.
cr3ativity 15
And speaking of numbers, OP should have ask for hers ;3
marrriah 6
It's crazy that you need to be 21 to drink In America! :)
ambowew 7
That's usually what happens when the waitress is old enough to be your mother, you cougar hunter, you!

Nothing wrong with cougar Huntin it's alot of fun

Maybe after you blow the webs and dust out.

Some guys I know call women a bit older then cougars but still hot Battle Cats.

17-I'd rather not deal with battle-worn pussy, if you know what I mean.
tekcor 2
You are still a kid. You'll understand in a few years.
charvisioku 22
Well she's a waitress, mate. In that kind of job, flirting or being nice can get you extra tips. That's usually the only reason they do it. She probably 'hits it off' with most people who come into the bar.
