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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, it was my 21st birthday and I invited a handful of my best friends over. They all stood me up and I drank alone in my apartment. Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, I was the designated driver. It was also my birthday party. 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. My parents' gift was a case of non-alcoholic beer, to "prepare" me for when I "turn 21." My parents can't even remember how old I am. FML
Today, I was the designated driver for my friend's 21st birthday. On the way home from the bar, he threw up all the pasta and tequila he'd had onto the back seat of my car, and told me it was part of his whole party plan. FML
Today, it's my birthday and my friends and I went to our favorite pub to celebrate. As I'm a little broke at the moment, they all offered to buy me birthday drinks. Which I later learned meant that they would order them for me and bring them to the table, but put everything on my tab. FML
Today, I turned 21 and had a huge party because I could finally drink legally. Got arrested for public intoxication. 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, it was my 21st birthday. My roommate insisted her friend join us. They both got belligerently drunk while I was pretty sober. We ended the night at 12am with her friend violently sobbing at the bar over her boyfriend, while I played Subway Surfers. Yay. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I still say the term "Friends" needs to be re-defined.

WHY was my comment moderated? Excuse me for pointing out the fact that the legal drinking age in Alberta where OP said they are from is 18!! I call BS on this FML. And my comment was moderated? Please.

Hey, I didn't read your comment because I was distracted by the same fact. I just said the same thing: drinking age is 18. I mean, maybe they live in a border town, but still, that's weird.

OP, you're from Canada. And Alberta at that. Legal drinking age in Alberta (and Quebec) is 18. Why is 21 such a big deal? Also, you're a whiny brat. Your friends wanted you to have a good time. Maybe they chose the wrong venue, but at least they wanted to spend time with you. Stop feeling sorry for yourself because you CHOOSE not to drink. I don't drink because I have much more fun sober. If you can't have fun sober just because other people are drunk, then you're a prissy bitch. Stop acting like everyone's an asshole if they don't share your emo misery.

Okay, I know I'm being a giant comment *****, and for that I apologize, but everyone saying, "Good for you, OP!", "Way to not drink, OP!", "You're so mature, OP!", PLEASE SHUT IT. Not drinking isn't a sign of maturity. Especially when it results in coming to FML to cry about it. Not drinking doesn't make you better than people who do drink, and acting like it does makes you an ever more obnoxious douche. Drinking doesn't make you a bad person. Not drinking doesn't make you a good person. Alcohol has been around forever. And everyone bitching about how it's so great not to drink, guess who drank alcohol? That's right; Jesus. It's in the bible, suckas. (Yes, that last bit was mostly in jest. But if you believe in him or the bible, you gotta believe he drank once in a while.)

If you don't want to read my comments, then don't read them. Also, you're a moron. Legal drinking age in Canada is 19 everywhere BUT Alberta and Quebec, and the OP is from Alberta. Your grammar and "spelling" proves how stupid you are, but being such a brat over one comment is pathetic.

The the people saying OP is boring/a killjoy/lame for not drinking? Are those people not obnoxious douches as well? Drinking doesn't make you a bad person, but it doesn't make you a good person either. It just makes you a person who drinks. There are people on both sides of this argument who are being douche-y.
