Foot in mouth

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.

This doesn't like really seem like an 'fml', just quite awkward.

well, at least you didn't say it was ugly, but then again i guess it wouldnt have really mattered.

I'm sure you probably made her day. She's probably self-concious about it, and she's proably thankful it wasn't that noticeable. She was probably happily surprised. How is this an FML?

should have told her you didnt ask her how to put it on, just that it looked nice.

You know, I wouldn't feel too bad about that. If that was me with the tube, I'd be absolutely stoked that it could be mistaken for a cool necklace.

i wouldve been like "Do you ever get freaky with that thing?" lol

I bet the lady felt super good. That was basically a compliment, telling her 1. It doesn't even look like a breathing tube and 2. it's PRETTY!!
