Today, my friends and I went out to dinner. Being short on cash, I suggested a game where we put our phones in the center of the table and first to check their phone had to pay the bill. Our conversation died out, and fearful of having an awkward silence, I checked my phone. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was at a diner with friends when we decided to put our phones in the middle of the table on the basis that whoever looks at theirs first has to pay. It was going well, until someone rushed up behind me, slammed my face into the table and ran out with our 4 phones. FML
Today, I went out with a friend to grab some food and we were served by this really cute and fun waiter. Stepping out of my comfort zone and deciding to do something crazy, I left my phone number on the bill. I got home only to realize that I forgot to pay the bill. FML
Today, some friends and I went to IHOP. We joked about not having enough money, and as it turns out we were $5 short. We put down what we had and left. Upon getting to the car, I realized I'd forgotten my phone, and had to go back. I made eye contact with our waitress, our money in her hand. FML
Today, I was on a dinner date with a guy I really like. I guess I was on my phone too much because halfway through the date he sent me a text saying how much my half of the bill would be. FML
Today, I went to dinner to meet my boyfriend's parents for the first time. I received a text message, so I pulled out my phone to check. Apparently, his parents have a "No phones at the table rule" and took my phone away until I could learn "proper table manners." FML
Today, I went out to eat with my friends. When the bill came, all three of them had "inconveniently" forgot their wallets at home. I ended up having to pay. It was a $178 check. FML
Today, I went out to eat with a friend. I was supposed to be paying, but when I tried to, there wasn't enough money in my bank account. She didn't have money with her either. FML
Today, I took a friend out for what I thought was date. After dinner was over and I paid, she pulled the bill out and wrote her name phone number on it for the waiter. FML
Today, my girlfriend chose the most expensive restaurant in town, then spent the entire time facebooking, texting, and playing games on her phone while I dined in silence. This is the second time we've been out this week. She didn't even eat her food. I didn't even get a thank you. FML
Today, I did a "dine and dash" and left my phone in the restaurant. The owner answered my phone call. FML

Creative, yet not helpful.

How unfortunate! Hopefully it's a lesson learned. I mean, you knew you were short on cash. Why be risky?

It's ironic because you spelled "idiocity" incorrectly darling.

Nothing like losing the game you created. You're lack of IQ has doomed you.

Was that an attempt at irony, or a display of hypocrisy?
sugarshane007 20
Irony, but I realize I could have stated that better. I deserve what thumbs down I get.

Whatever happened to breaking silences by, you know, talking? Your with friends not in a job interview - it doesn't even reall matter if you break it by saying something dumb...think a lot of people could do with playing this game.

Conversing? Pfffffft! Who does THAT anymore? Verbal communication is for old people!

Amen to that! I'd rather sit through an awkward silence than have dinner with a friend who's more interested in playing on their phone or texting others. :(

We've all used our cell phones to avoid an awkward silence.. Never thought it would come with a price tho, did ya?

Ummm no "we all" haven't. Some of us don't use are phone like its oxygen and actually have respect when hanging out with friends.
