Devious

By James - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, we got our yearbooks for school. I opened to my profile to see that they misspelled my first name which is James. They wrote Lames. FML

The yearbook editors are supposed to triple check the names to prevent that kind of stuff. sorry you were the subject of their carelessness/incompetence.

Your comment : Our brains are programed to read things correctly even if they're misspelt. They could have double even tripple checked it but one letter isnt going to pop out. Sorry about your luck Lames, I mean James.

Are the editors that bad? My yearbook two years ago was full of errors, people were having contests to see how many errors they could find on a page. Last year's had a girl in the correct grade and her identical twin in another.

Reminds me of my high school yearbook. I had actually gotten two pictures in there (only because I was going home early) the first was the individual student pictures, my name was right. The second was about what I did on the bus for the long rides (I usually rode the school bus and it usually took me an hour to get home) and had my picture taken with me pulling my DS (yes, the original DS from when they first came out) out of my purse, only cause I didn't use a bookbag. Well on that picture my last name was changed from Shrum to Drum, AND they, they being two girls the same age as me, called the DS a PSP. Yes, I went to a school FILLED with idiots, including most of the staff.

Could be worse, they could have just left you out of the yearbook... Then again that is still pretty jacked...

They completely forgot to put my name or picture in mine.

A few years ago there was a girl in my school who was slightly obese whose last name was Overstreet. They put Overton on "accident".

At least you're not Lina changed to Una

That happened to my friend to but her's was Juicy instead of Lucy..
