Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

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, 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

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.

You deserve it for spending that much on a bottle of rotten grape juice...

If you could afford a 400$ bottle of wine, you could afford another.

Eshh ok so everyone has an opinion on why you would spend so much on a bottle of wine... Well if you want a winemakers point of view, wine is as much about the story as the taste, it's art, granted $400 is a lot of money to spend on a wine to drink, yet iv had wines in the hundreds of dollars that are priced as such and still are not making a profit. People buy the romance and the story and history of a wine, it's a passion, not just a drink. Just saying.

Happy holidays, folks. Please lay off the price tag on the wine - everybody has their indulgences (within their individual budget) and it's the holiday season. HOWEVER, OP: If you can afford to serve a $400 bottle of wine, then can't you afford to hire someone to open/serve it for you?
