I was having a formal dinner last night with 5 other friends. Everything was going rather smoothly. When the check came, everyone chipped in their share of the dinner. I wanted to pay for my share, but all I had was a debit card, and if I were to pay with my debit card, I would have to pay for everyone. That might exceed my limit in my debit card, so I asked one of my friends if he could pay for me first, and I would run over to the ATM to get the money later to pay him back. One of the girls on the table went like "That is a shame. You can't even pay your own bill." In my mind, it is not that I can't, it's just that I want to save the hassle. Then my friend willingly paid for me, but after that he added "Now you owe me 8 + 18 bux you originally owe me." I was just embarrassed in front of everyone. That 18 bux was money I promised to pay him for borrowing his book. After all that, I went to the ATM to get CASH, and the ****ing machine ATE my card. I could hardly believe it myself.
