Looking for love in Alderaan places

By not4geeks - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I went out on a first date with a cute guy. Turns out we won't be going on a date again because I didn't know the difference between "Star Wars" and "Star Trek." FML

How do you not know the difference? YDI. I'm a girl, and I'd dump you for that. It's proof positive that your interests clash.

STAR WAR AND STAR TREK ARE NOTHING A LIKE! I can't stand it when people get them mixed up. You ought to be ashamed of yourself! You make me sick you do!

In all honesty, I know the difference..and it makes me sad to know the difference. but anyways firefly was better then either sorries :)

i don't know the difference either. its so annoying when people get pissed off because of it :

your life is ******, because you don't know the difference.

That's okay, there probably wouldn't have been much room in his mom's basement for you anyway. If he's that obsessed about it, you're better off. I'm a geek, but my gf hasn't seen a star trek or star wars movie... and I haven't read 1/2 the books or have the interest in jazz she does.

You really should know what they are just because they're a huge, insanely huge, franchise. You probably shouldn't have been dumped because of it, but like everyone else said, conflicting interests. You should have just told him you knew what they were and then read the synapsis for both later that night. YDI

i dont know the difference either #30 some of us werent alive in the 60s. i know i wasnt born till around 30 years later. so if you call "not being even concieved yet", "living under a rock" and it a stupid thing to have that being the only reason your not together. if so then be happy your not with that guy. but its prob you just didnt have anything in common
