Today, I realized I don't know which is sadder: the fact I have detailed conversations with myself in my car, or that I bought a Bluetooth earpiece so that I can do it in public without people thinking I'm a complete lunatic. FML

Today, I was walking around my new school trying to figure out where to go. Then I realized I was talking to myself. Out loud. FML

Today, I was sitting on the train when some crazy man started talking to me. I ignored him, and he tapped on my shoulder. He started blabbing and I just pointed to my ears and mouthed, "I'm deaf." He stopped talking. A minute later my phone rang and I answered it without thinking. FML

Denial

By Andre - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff

Today, I had a mumbled conversation with myself in a supermarket aisle about whether or not to buy a bottle of bourbon. Nothing screams "pathetic loser" like an alcoholic in denial having a debate with himself out loud near strangers. FML

Leave me alone

By Antisocial, I guess - 22/11/2022 21:00 - United States

Today, I got yelled at for having a set of headphones around my neck at all times, because it "makes me seem disinterested." Two things: 1. I have established myself as a very good listener among my peers; 2. I'm autistic, so I need the headphones readily available at all times to cope with loud environments. FML

Today, I was so lonely that I had a conversation with myself on my way home. It was only when I reached my apartment complex that I discovered that my neighbour had been walking behind me, laughing to himself the whole way. FML

Today, I discovered both how much I really talk to myself when I'm drinking alone and how thin the walls of my apartment are. I heard my own slurred voice coming from my neighbor's apartment. They had recorded me and made a mixtape of some of the more interesting things I had said. FML

Invisible

By Ignored - 26/01/2023 17:00 - United States

Today, I've become so used to being ignored, that not only can I recognize the unique physical and verbal tics (or lack thereof) that certain people have when they're not listening to me, but I can even mutter just about anything under my breath - even in public - completely confident that no one will listen.

Classic brainworms

By Anonymous - 22/10/2024 23:00 - United Kingdom

Today, I was talking to someone on the phone, and then I panicked because I couldn't find it, searching for it while speaking on the phone, asking them to call it. It wasn't until they started laughing did I realise that it was up against my ear. FML

it's sadder that you bought a Bluetooth, and also that you feel talking to yourself is not normal. most people talk to themselves.

You use to be able to know who the crazy people were because they were constantly talking to themselves in public. Now everyone is on a phone headset so you can't tell. Also, now you've got to think twice when a lady says "so, how about we get it on tonight". If she's wearing a headset, she's probably not talking to you.

it is crazy to talk to oneself... normal people think over their problem... if one needs to discuss the problem,let one talks to somebody and get another fresh opinion...

I think you have serious mental issues. Everyone will talk to themselves at some point, but minimal things like, "did I forget to turn off the stove?" I'm not a psychologist, but you don't sound normal.
