Foot in mouth

By oopsjsp90 - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, I told a lady that came into my clothing store that I thought her abstract looking necklace was pretty. She responded, "Oh… That's actually a pipe that goes into my lung." FML

Seriously, Fmylife.com really needs a "This ain't a big deal" button.

I made a comment like this on a similar FML and it was almost instantly moderated. you guys suck. but yeah op, mistakes happen. everyone is probably going to notice the tube so I'm sure your comment was one of the nicest she had heard about it in a while.

How were u suppose to know. I would have the same thing. It's ur job to tell people that. Maybe it will make her better about it......

Agreed. I'd also rally for an "Awkward!" button.

I agree so much. So many of these aren't FMLs.

YES! This site really needs a "So what?" or "This isn't a big deal." button.
