Well, well, well... 🍸 Buckle up, folks, because we've got a juicy tale of drinks, drama, and a dash of deception! 😱 When my friend Abby invited us to meet her new beau, Mark, over dinner and drinks, little did I know I'd end up in the bartender's seat. 🧉 As the night progressed and the drinks flowed, things took a turn for the dramatic. 😳 So, grab a cocktail (or a mocktail, no judgment here! 😉) and let's dive into this intoxicating story! 🍹

The Fake Drink Fiasco: Am I the A-hole?
As the night went on and Mark kept throwing back drinks like there was no tomorrow, I started serving him virgin cocktails to keep him from going overboard. I thought I was being a good friend, but when Abby called me out on it later, I was left wondering if I'd made the right call. Did I enable Mark's drinking by not cutting him off completely? Or was I just trying to be a responsible bartender and friend? The internet has some thoughts on this one, and they're not holding back! Let's see what they have to say about this boozy blunder.
