Today, my parents saw my report card. Now, they refuse to buy me my the new computer I've always wanted because my grades had 'slipped'. I made honor roll for three terms, and was kept off for the fourth for a single bad grade. I failed gym. FML

To pass gym don't you have to just show up? Even if you aren't athletic all you have to do is make an ounce of effort. This feels like YDI.

sounds like you should use the time you would have spent on your computer working out.

To the people who said gym can actually be hard, so what? Either the kid failed because he thought it was too easy and slacked off, or he failed because it was hard and he didn't work hard enough. Either way, YDI.

teachers arent allowed to grade you on your athletic abilities so its really hard to fail gym, you really just screwed yourself over. or you didnt have a uniform, and again, you just screwed yourself over because they dont cost that much. either way you dont deserve computer

At my school, you have to do more than just show up. You have to actually do the work and if you don't do it well, then you'll get a bad grade for the day. But even that isn't hard. I'm gonna say you deserved this one because gym isn't that hard to pass.

Even if there were tests, they shouldn't have been too hard. Learning the rules to football and being able to pass a test on them isn't nearly as difficult as learning the Krebs Cycle or understanding how to properly read the periodic table. It's not like they're going to grade you on your ability to catch, if you obviously try during the athletic portion and learn the rules for the tests it's a cake class. Failing gym is a sign of not caring, you deserve it.

The fact about this FML is that we don't have enough information... and we don't know enough to understand exactly why this is an FML. When I was in Elementary school, Gym gave written tests. I never really failed... but if you have other classes to worry about and you miss Gym one day because you're late, etc. It's hard to keep up.

when i was in school the main way the phy ed teachers graded you was by you participation. and you willingness to do work.

How have you always wanted the new computer? New computers come out more frequently than the length of a semester. If you've been waiting on the A2X107Z series for "always" then its probably obsolete. Proper grammar would have said more efficiently that you have been longing for a new computer or something of sort. I also deem you must have failed English then too. You're really slipping there, get back on the ball.
