Today, it has got to the point that I don't even have to ask for my booze in the local off-licence, they just hand me my bottle. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I realized that my alcoholism has gotten so bad that I rotate liquor stores so the clerks don't think bad about me. FML
Today, a local liquor store gave me a holiday gift for being such a great customer. They're not the first ones to do so. FML
Today, I was addressed by name by the liquor store clerk. I've never told him my name. He's just seen my ID many times. FML
Today, I realized that the cashier at the liquor store and I are already on a first-name basis. I just moved to this town a week ago. FML
Today, I was refused employment at a liquor store. Their reason? I'm a regular customer and they're afraid I'll drink all their profits. FML
Today, the girl who works at the liquor store came to where I work. She recognized me. FML
Today, my drinking habit hit a new low when I waited almost an hour to go to the liquor store after it opened because I didn't want to seem desperate. FML
Today, I tried to buy a bottle of wine from the supermarket. The scrawny, acne-ridden kid at the checkout asked to see my ID. I didn't have any on me, since I'm 37 years old and didn't expect to be asked stupid questions. I complained to his manager, only to be asked to leave. FML
Today, I bought a small bottle of liquor to share with my husband to celebrate our move. It took three hours at the store as the cashier, manager, GM, and a police officer checked my ID believing it was fake. I'm 25. FML
Today, I came home from a nine-hour shift and all I want is to sit down with a glass of Baileys. I can't find the key to the liquor cabinet. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

there was one case where an old lady would order the same pizza everyday for three years without fail to the point where they would cook it before she even phoned. One day when she didn't call the driver went to her house to check on her and found she suffered a stroke. moral of the story: your alcoholism could one day save your life!

I don't see the problem. You have a favorite. Inn n Out would do the same for me.

At least you realize you have a problem. Now would be a good time to get help.

I think the problem here is you apparently buy the same thing every time you go. Try some variety!

Not are. Is. The "is" reflects the majority of non stupid people she is referring to. Is is plural, are is singular... Nice try though.

#31, what??

#25 Paying the bills shouldn't be the only thing OP worries about. There is addiction, impaired senses, inability to properly operate machinery. Such as a car, which can be a life threatening issue for OP as well as others.

38- are is plural (these are nice) and is is singular (this is awesome) it's not talking about the vast majority just the one who made the comment and if it was it would be talking about a group of people which is singular

I get the same thing when I buy cigarettes... You know it's bad when you have 10 people at Publix who don't ask for your ID anymore and they know what brand you want -_-
