Music, Teenagers and Miscellaneous: Don't do this

Don't do this

By storksleuth - 04/10/2011 08:57 - United States

Today, I saw a girl wearing a Nirvana shirt. Since Nirvana has been my favorite band for a long time, I tried striking up a conversation with her. Turns out she doesn't even listen to them, and only bought the shirt because she "liked the smiley face." FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I was waiting for my wife in a mall when some kids came and sat near me, wearing band t-shirts. I recognized some, as I was into The Smiths and Black Flag in my youth. I tried to strike up a music-fan chat with them. "Fuck off, grandad" and "Ew, pedo" is all I got in return. FML

Today, I was at the mall blasting music. I was wearing a nice shirt, and had my iPod in my breast pocket. I noticed a cute girl smiling at me, so I smiled back and as she started to walk over, I turned down my music while smiling. It looked like I was rubbing my nipple. FML

Today, I found out that the very good-looking woman who sings for one of my favorite bands is actually a guy. FML

Thick as thieves

Today, I was at the mall shoplifting when a girl who looked my age pointed to a shirt I had in my bag. "Stole that, huh?" she asked smiling. She looked pretty cool, so I nodded and asked if she stole the jeans she was wearing, which were from the same store. Turns out she didn't, she's the manager. FML

Today, I saw a girl with the same shirt as me. I excitedly pointed it out. She punched me in the face. I didn’t think people actually got mad about that. FML

Today, I went shopping with a friend. She went to try some clothes on and came out to ask for my opinion. "Hell no! That shirt is awful!". She wanted to show me the pants. The shirt was hers. FML

Today, I told the cute girl in my office that she looked like she listened to country music, as an icebreaker. She blankly stared at me for what felt like forever, and responded with, "That's the worst thing you could say to a person," and walked away. She hasn't talked to me since. FML

Today, I was punched in the face for wearing a Ramones shirt. The guy who punched me said he was tired of people wearing the shirt without knowing who they were. I've been a Ramones fan my whole life and am the only person I know who has worn the shirt. FML

Today, a customer came into the store I work at to ask why I hadn't killed myself yet. A month prior, that same customer told me to kill myself. All I did was compliment her shirt. FML

Small talk is hell

By thisismyawkwardface - 19/02/2014 07:17 - South Africa - Johannesburg

Today, I was struggling through small-talk at a party where I knew nobody. Tattoos came up and I started talking about trendy, girly tattoos like feathers, anchors and infinity signs with stupid words in them. Turns out the girl I was talking to had all three. FML

If you don't listen to the band, don't buy the ******* shirt. You become a poser.

I hate when someone's like Oh you don't know who Nirvana is you must like stupid music like rap or something. Ugh you're an idiot if you think that someone can't like both. I like Lil Wayne, Nirvana, any 80's music (metal) Drake, Jay-Z, Sara Barielles, indie, folk, Gavin DeGraw, Ben Lee. You can like all kinds of music.

That happened to me once with a different band, but I didn't consider it an fml moment. I guess it's different for you, but maybe instead it could have been an opportunity to ask her to hang out with you and listen to them with you.

It never said she didn't know who Nirvana WERE, just that she didn't like them. I agree, I think it's stupid when people wear tshirts of bands they don't even like just cos the tshirt is "cool", but there's a big difference between not liking Nirvana and not being aware of their existence.

How is your life ******? I know you hoped she would but now she wont... I bought the Jethro Tull tee-shirt cause I like Sitting on the park bench, eyeing little girls with bad intent. So far, I haven't found any girls with bad intent. I need to find another park.
