Stacey: "If you invite me to your birthday dinner, you should pay!"

Loading player...
Stacey is sharing her #UnpopularOpinion: I was recently invited to an intimate birthday dinner party that was set up and organised by the birthday girl herself, so no surprise party vibes.
I had no say in the planning and putting together of this get-together but that is not what concerned me about this party. It is important for some context though so you better understand the issue at hand.
I had arrived at this bougie, fancy dinner (again - context) and we were enjoying ourselves, just a bunch of friends and family having a good time with the person they love.
But what happened after the evening had come to an end is what left me shooketh to my core. And I was not the only one that was caught off-guard.
Take a listen to find out what happened at this dinner fiasco!
