Today, there was a new girl in one of my classes. We both corrected a classmate on his grammar, so, trying to make a new friend, I leaned back to her and said, "Haha, fellow Grammar Nazi?" She gave me a disgusted look and told me she was Jewish. FML

Today, we had to discuss our heritage at school. When I told the class that I'm German, Japanese, and of the Jewish faith, my teacher laughed at the "irony." Something like this always happens whenever I tell people my background. FML

Today, a parent of one of the students I teach called me to complain that I was teaching her child "lies" and "fairytales". I was teaching them about the Holocaust. FML

Today, I finally found out why my new co-worker has been shooting me dirty looks, being rude to me, and generally trying to avoid me. It's because I have blonde hair and blue eyes, and she thinks people like me are Nazis. FML

Today, my teacher assigned us teams in a class debate. I landed on the team that had to argue the obviously wrong point of view. When I finished, my teacher told me and the entire class how much I disturbed her, and how I reminded her of Hitler and Napoleon. FML

Today, I was discussing my family heritage with my girlfriend's parents. The moment I told them that I came from a German background, her seven-year-old brother pointed at me and yelled, "HITLER!" FML

Wrong target

Today, I was hitting on a girl who was getting ready to walk into the same class as me. We were waiting outside the room, so I told her that I'd heard the professor for the course was a total bitch. We walked into the room. I sat down at a desk. She stood behind the podium. FML

Today, I somehow mistook the Star of David for a Pentagram. My Jewish friends were not amused. FML

Today, I contacted my landlady to tell her that I approved of the girl she recommended for a sublet. She then told me she thinks this girl is a neo-Nazi. Why? The e-mails she sent to the girl were rejected as spam. Apparently, this and being German qualifies you to be a neo-Nazi. FML

Today, I watched my mother tell a man that the holocaust was "a good thing" and "necessary for population control". That man was my girlfriend's father. Who is Jewish. FML

Then she obviously has no sense of humour. There's no better revenge than taking a derogatory term and turning it around.

I can see how she would be sensitive to that statement after going through the holocaust and all.

OP- Remember this experience and that the FML website is probably not your best source of dating advice or pickup lines! YDI for insensitivity and for being a grammar nazi!

I find it interesting that you'd throw down the word "****" while decrying what you perceive to be offensive language and humour.

Well, looks like some one has a stick shoved up their butt. She could of made a joke out of it like "Woah I did nazi that coming! I'm Jewish!" Or something jeez.

So? She isn't a grammar Jew?

Bah. She's an idiot. I'm a half breed Jew and I use that term loosely. I think she just didn't like you. Sorry OP. :(

I find it hard to believe she could be stupid enough to think you were actually making an offensive joke. You're better off not being friends with her since it appears she's either stupid or easy as hell to offend.
