Today, my mom and I went to Winn-Dixie. I told her I was going to a different isle 5 minutes later I hear my name on the intercom to go to the front of the store. As I go I see my mom crying, she comes and hugs me and tells me she thought I was lost. Im 22, I had my cell phone, and I drove there. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went shopping with my mom. I went into my department and tried on some clothes. After a few minutes, there is an announcement that a child has gone missing. Staff are searching the store. I see my mom and she hugs me in tears and yells, "I found her!" I'm almost 17. FML
Today, my mom was on the phone while we went grocery shopping. Apparently, her phone call was more important because she just left me stranded in the store. FML
Today, I got lost at Best Buy. Meanwhile, my mom freaked out, and they called out my name over the intercom. When I walked up to the desk and they saw I was 17, the employees burst out laughing. FML
Today, my family and I drove to a mall an hour away. We split up, and I went into a store by myself. A little later, I get a call from my brother asking me where I am. They had already left to go home and didn't notice me missing from the car. They were already halfway home. FML
Today, I went shopping with my parents. Halfway through, I got separated from them and tried to call them only to find out my cell phone battery was flat. A few minutes later, an announcement was made for a lost child. It was by my parents. I'm 36. FML
Today, my mother set off the alarms at Walmart by shoplifting. She shouted at me to run, which I didn't. I had to get a ride home from the security guard, since my mother left without me because I didn't get to her car fast enough. FML
Today, I was in Walmart with my mom. I was looking for some CDs I wanted and saw a cute guy. Then he nodded at me and as he started to walk towards me, I hear my name being called over the intercom. Apparently, according to my mom, it was time to go. FML
Today, I went to Wal-Mart with my mom. She kept telling me to put my keys away so I wouldn't lose them. After a few times, I got annoyed and yelled at her. When we got back to her house, I realized I'd lost my keys. FML
Today, while at the grocery store, I saw my mother. I thought it would be funny to scare her by sneaking up and grabbing her ass. Not only was it not my mom, I left the place with a ban from ever returning to that store. FML
Today, I was dragged to the food store with my mom. While we were shopping, the fire alarm went off. My mom pushed the cart at me, nearly knocking me over, and sprinted for the door. FML

#46: You are an idiot. Winn Dixies are still alive and well and there are atleast 3 in New Orleans alone. Winn Dixie is a grocery store.

winn-dixie went bankrupt in 2006. there used to be several where i used to live in south carolina, but they have all been closed down. all of them, all over the south. winn-dixie and food lion are simply regionally common stores in the southeastern united states. it's no different than quality markets is to the midwest and giant eagle and wegmans are to new england.

Seriously, people, it's a ******* typo. One letter. Haven't you ever been typing and just missed one letter? No? Oh, I guess you're just that perfect. And I honestly believe this one. So what if the poster is twenty-two and living with their mom, and shopping at a "cheaper" store? You don't know their financial situation so this might be the only thing that works for both of them. Or the poster WANTS to live with their mom. Yeah, that's a possibility in case you forgot. Or, y'know, their mom could have done it to screw with her kid. As in not being totally serious and irrational. That's what I would have thought.

#13 while I realize you were trying to be funny, being born on Feb 29th does not make you 1/4 your age... you may have only had 5 birthdays, but you've been alive 22 years and therefore are 22 years old, just like any other 22 year old.

I don't see the issue with being 22 and grocery shopping with your mom. News flash: I'm 22 and I sometimes do. Once you get over the "nobody understands me and my parents are Nazis" teen angst, lots of people realize their parents aren't nearly as bad as they thought, and actually WANT to spend time with them. And if the OP is in college and their mom is paying for their school, of course they'd still be at home.

#92 is partially right. But on the other hand: 1) you should be independent by now, and 2) your mom has emotional, fear, and logic issues... and 3) sometimes people go to college and get room and board there.
