Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste

Wine about it
Today, I knocked over and broke one of two very expensive wine bottles. As I was using the mop to clean it up, the handle knocked over and broke the other. FML

Today, I spent 2 minutes struggling to cork a wine bottle for one of my tables only to have them eventually point out to me that the bottle was a twist-off. FML

Today, I saw that the wine bottle I couldn't open last night had a big hole in the top from my struggle to open it. It was a screw top. I must've been drunker than I thought last night. FML

Today, at the winery, my boss proudly made a spectacle of the new, high quality bottles. After over a year of employment without breaking a bottle, I shattered three before lunch. FML

Today, I received a very expensive bottle of wine for Christmas. My alcoholic mother snuck into my house while I was out and drank the whole bottle. FML

Today, while waiting on tables at work, I was carrying a glass of red wine when I lost balance and spilt it everywhere. After cleaning the floor and myself up and after refilling a new glass, I did exactly the same thing again. FML

First impressions
Today, I went over to my girlfriend's parents house for dinner. This was the first time I was meeting them, so I bought a $70 bottle of red wine to try and impress them. I tried to be smooth while popping the cork. I did, but the bottle slipped and red wine poured onto their white carpet. FML

Today, it was my first day at work as a waitress. The day ended with me owing my employers money, after I accidentally smashed an expensive bottle of wine on the floor. FML

Today, a man tried to rob the winery I worked at by knife-point. I managed to scare him off by throwing a bottle of wine at him. My boss fired me because I broke a $25 bottle of wine. FML

Well thats one way to get it open.

Why would anyone need to buy a $400 bottle of wine? Being a cheap ass myself I found a delicious tasting one for about $4. And sure, I get paying as much as $80 for wine... but 400? That's just a waste of money. Remember, a higher price doesn't always means better taste.

FYL? I WISH I could afford a $400 bottle of wine!

You'd think for $400 the bottle would be stronger? I once dropped a $10 box of wine and it held up great.

But a box is cardboard and a bottle is glass. That may explain it a little bit :). Also if it's aged wine the glass may have been more fragile

Nothin like a sturdy box of wine.

Why spend all of that? On tv they did a blindfolded wine tasting. They all thought the one that cost five pound was the posh one because it tasted nicer.

$400?! Wow, the idiocy of some people. You don't need to spend that much on wine. You can get a decent bottle of wine for about $20. YDI

Or $5.

And there you go, getting thumbed down by people that worship celebrities and overpriced fashion, live off credit, and care what others think. I think you're spot on!

No, he's thumbed down for being a judgmental ass. We all have things we like to splurge on, or treat ourselves to. Acting like you're better than OP because you personally wouldn't buy expensive wine is pathetic and childish.

You are an idiot! Hope you had a straw to hand!

I love how everyone is jumping to the conclusion that OP bought this bottle of wine. He could have gotten it as a gift, or he could even be working as a somilier (is that the right word?) and the bottle was something that a guest had ordered with their dinner. The only thing we know is that OP dropped the very expensive bottle of wine. We don't even know if it broke.

It wouldn't be an fml if it didn't break.
Dthsapprntc 23
Very true. I like ro think that it didn't break though and simply fell through a rift in the space-time continuum and was subsequently enjoyed by someone on a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. I might be over thinking this.

So that was the tremendous moan of agony I heard....sorry OP.

I take that you got some straws?
