Today, I went to an audition for a play. The casting director thanked me for my time, but told me they would pass because I had "the emotional range of a turnip." FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I auditioned for a part in a play. I've been practicing for months, and was very excited. After I'd finished singing, the director whispered something to the other judges, and they all laughed. Hard. So much for the lead role. FML

Casting call out

Today, I was trying out for a play I really wanted to be in. After my audition, I was feeling really good. She said she would post the cast list tomorrow. Not knowing where she would post it, I asked her. Her reply? "It doesn't matter. You won't be on it anyway." FML

Today, I showed up on set for a film that I booked a role in weeks ago. At the time of the audition, the script was being rewritten, so today I was so excited and eager to be told what my role would entail. When they handed me the script, my character was described as a fat, ugly, awkward girl. FML

Today, I auditioned for the role of Rizzo in a local production of Grease. The director told me I wasn't tough enough, and that my persona too sweet and childlike for the part. I asked if I should instead try out to play Sandy. He replied, "I was being nice. Honestly, you're ugly and can't act." FML

Today, I auditioned for a role in ballet. My stomach was in pain and as I ran to be lifted into the air by my partner, I let out a huge fart. The auditorium was dead silent. FML

Today, I auditioned for a part and made it because the director thought I would be "perfect" for the part and I was "just like the character in every way." The part is for a schizophrenic drug addict who everyone hates and is stabbed to death in the second scene. FML

Today, I had a job interview. The only moment I impressed the interviewer was when I talked about drama. He started to talk about a play I hadn't seen, but I decided to agree on everything he was saying. Suddenly he said, "the play doesn't actually exist." I silently left the room. FML

Today, I had a piano audition for a musical. Afterwards, the judge asked if I had any experience with percussion, and then told me she was considering me for a percussion part. I guess my piano audition really was THAT bad. FML

Your song

By None - 08/02/2009 17:18 - United States

Today, I auditioned for the musical at my school. Before I sang my song, I gave my music to the director. She said "Oh, I love this song!". After I sang it, she told me, "It's okay, I still like the song." FML

Feel honour, how many people get to be compared to a turnip?

Turnips can be pretty emotional actually.

At least it wasn't a dandelion! Those things are completely foul and emotionless. Not to mention ugly.

Really? This is an FML? Wow. OP, not everyone can like you. Accept it. Also, if you suck as an actor, that's your fault, practice and get better.

Atleast they didn't say you had the emotional range of a kumkuat. I heard they are really bland(:

This FML reminds me of Harry Potter, when Hermione tells Ron he has the emotional range of a teaspoon.

Turnip. Haha! Makes me laugh every time. And yes, I do believe turnips have feelings. So being compared to a teaspoon would make so much more sense. (Or a rock) as they are just boring, sediments of the Earths crust....

Too bad plants don't have nervous systems and therefore it is impossible to have feelings eh?

I am most dearly insulted by your simplistic failure to prostrate yourself before me, for I am the grand Xivilai Anaxes, when I conquer the globe I will make certain that you are not kept in extravagant comfort, you shall exist in ghettos and swamps and detention centres and education areas for people to learn how to type. Or you could just say I'm wonderful and be done with it.

Well, to create a favourite FML, you must first prepare your computers memory to accept cookies. This is done by pouring water into the back fan on your computer near the power cable, don't worry, it won't destroy your computer, only salty water actually does any damage by reacting with the metal which distorts electrical paths causing it to break down. After that you have to use a defragmenter on your hard drive and you are now ready to favourite FMLs. A button will pop up underneath each FML that reads "Favourite me?". You click this button and everything will be K.
