Today, I found out I was 13th in a graduating class of about 350 students. When I told my mother, without batting an eye, she told me, "Hey, shit floats". FML

Today, I recently graduated from high school and I went to a college party. I met these girls and told them I graduated college already, to sound cool. I then heard one of them say, "I went to middle school with you, and I was in your math class." FML

Today, while at a grocery store, I told my mom I had some good news. She exclaimed, "You finally got a boyfriend?!" No mom, just an A on my math test. FML

Today, my school sent me an email saying I would be transferred to another class this Monday. I told my mom about it. Turns out my drunk mom ran into my teacher at a bar and started berating her for being at the bar, instead of grading her “kid’s exam already.” I’m a high school senior. FML

Today, while at school, a bra fell out of my coat. After the initial shock, people started congratulating me on finally getting a girlfriend. I didn't have the heart to tell them it was my mom's. FML

Today, I found out that, despite my above average performance in school, I was right in the middle of my class ranking at graduation. My school stated that your respect for others would affect your ranking, but the fact that nearly all of the people who placed above me were gigantic pricks says otherwise. FML

Today, my mom called and told me I got accepted to my first-choice college. I got really excited and asked her to read me the letter. As she started to read it, she said, "Oops... uh, nevermind." FML

Today, I got a call from my 8-year-old's 3rd grade teacher. Apparently a question went around class asking, "Why do you think you were put on this Earth?", and my son answered, "My dad says it's because I swam the fastest." FML

Even though your Mother isn't proud, you should be. Congratulations, OP.

you should tell your mom that you feel like such a "son of a bitch" and see if she gets it

Remind her of this day when you're putting her in an old people's home.

That's pretty good. Just think: If you didn't piss away so much time on FML, you might have made the Top Ten! Good thing there wasn't FML when I was in high school -- I'd probably be living in my parents' basement by now!

It's okay, perdix. I'm sure some people here think you live in your parents' basement anyway. :P

I was in advanced English Literature in high school at 11th grade (this was after I had been in a remedial course for having failed English in 9th grade), and my teacher started with a lecture of how improvement will show brighter than just being talented. He stood me up in the front of the class at the start, and ended the lecture with, "So as you can see, you are all turds in the punch bowl, but some of you are floaters, and some of you are sinkers. Congrats on becoming floaters." To this day, I am still not sure if we were insulted or complimented...

I don't get what the big deal is. You come out sooner? So what?

OP finished in the top 20 of her graduating class, probably with honors. That is something to be proud of... if you can't see this then you are probably as bad as op's mom...
