Today, I'm the designated driver for a Christmas party I wasn't even invited to. Not only do I get to watch people have a good time, but I'm also supposed to not get involved in the party. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was the designated driver. It was also my birthday party. FML
Today, I found out that my "friends" only invite me to their parties when they need a designated driver. Apparently I'm "not fun" because I don't drink, which "ruins the party". FML
Today, my friends and I had our Christmas party. I ended up being the only one sober, and had to drive each and every person home. There were 15 of us. FML
Today, I was invited to a party. Since I rarely get invited to any, I was super pumped. Both my parents work late, so I texted a couple of people to see if I could catch a ride. It turned out everyone's cars were full. I ended up missing one of the only parties I've ever been invited to. FML
Today, I attempted to make a good impression amongst new coworkers by volunteering to be the designated driver at my work party. What did that get me? A backseat full of puke and some idiot too drunk to remember where he lived. FML
Today, I learned that when I got my driver's permit, I agreed to be the designated driver for my family. FML
Today, I was designated driver for my friends. This entailed standing around in the cold for 3 hours, not drinking, dealing with drunk people, and oh yeah, I almost forgot, cleaning up vomit from my hair, my clothes, and my new car. FML
Today, I was uninvited from my own birthday party. FML
Today, at work I was told I'd be working over Christmas because I don't drink. Apparently if you're tee-total, you're not entitled to spend time with your family and are incapable of having fun. 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

So say no... you're not obligated to drive them anywhere.

Simple solution: Drive them to the party, then leave. Turn off your phone and screw them over. They can call a cab to get home.

And you're doing it why? Grow a spine, let them deal with it themselves.

This is what Taxi's and Uber are for. Especially if they aren't contributing to 1. your time 2. your fuel

Leave. Sound like they're too cheap to call a cab.

Unless you're a chauffeur or taxi driver why would you even agree to that?

And if you are one of those, you need to get paid.

I’d drop them off in a sketchy part of down and let them figure it out on their own ... ever since I stopped letting people walk all over me, I’ve become a bit of a passive-aggressive jerk, but I’m no longer anyone’s doormat.

If they can't be bothered to let you in on their fun, they can find someone else.

Sounds like it is an office party or a lift to a private party. We don’t have cabs in my area and buses go to the mall and city. I’m guessing that might be the situation.
