Today, my teacher announced that he'd be out for a week because he was going to Vegas. I happily said, "Woo hoo!" Then he finished his sentence by telling me it was because his dad had died. FML

Today, I went back to school after missing the first 2 weeks of the new school year. I got grilled in my first lesson by my teacher for "gallivanting around on holiday in some sunny place" when I should've been at school learning. My dad had died from liver cancer. FML

Today, my English teacher asked me why I didn't have my project completed. Thinking quick on my feet, I told her it was because my grandmother had just passed away. Apparently they go to the same country club and have known each other for years. My teacher started crying and ran out of the room. FML

Today, I was talking to this really nice guy who likes me, and he tells me he's packing. I asked him where he was going, he said Puerto Rico. And I said "LUCKY!" He replied "it's for the funeral". I forgot his grandma had died. FML

Today, I was bored out of my mind at work. I told my coworker he was lucky to be leaving early. I forgot the reason of his early departure was to go to his grandfather's funeral. FML

Today, the really hot guy that works in the same building as me came to work after being away for the past two days. I said, "Look who finally decided to come to work!" His response was, "I had a death in the family, thanks." FML

Today, while reading the newspaper, I noticed that an ad had been placed for my job. I asked my boss for a week off so that I could fly home for my father's funeral. No wonder she was so cool with it. FML

What are the odds of him having to go to Vegas because of his dad's death?

Don't know if that was a gambling reference or not

I was thinking a zombie could do quite well in Vegas. Potential victims aren't going anywhere until the roulette stops, and he could have a deal with the house to only eat winners.

If OP had allowed the teacher to finish their sentence he would have known. OP deserves it for being rude and interrupting like that.

You're still a jerk. I want to slap people who purposefully make happy cheers when their teacher announced they are leaving. Believe it or not, teachers have feelings too

I guess I took the OP's "woohoo" as they were happy because the teacher gets to go to Vegas and most likely would be gambling. I took it as the OP was happy for the teacher to have a break.
