Helter Skelter

By EffUrEll - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - Canada - Toronto

Today, while at work, a Beatles song came on the radio. I jokingly said, "These guys are pretty good, are they new?" Everyone thought I was being serious, and now they're convinced I'm an idiot. FML

how does not knowing an artist make you an idiot?

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Some people just don't have a sense of humor

Since when did the radio play good music like that. I'm surprise people don't know who the Beatles are, with the music of today

Who the heck doesn't know the Beatles? Unless you are 10 and younger, but seriously come on....with all the remakes these days, it is pretty hard to not know who the Beatles are!!!

You NEVER EVER EVER joke about what ******* legends tge Beatles were and still are today!

If only you'd asked "who are they" instead of "are they new" this problem would've been avoided. However, FYL OP your coworkers sound like pricks...

YDI for trying sarcasm in front of idiots... and thinking the Beatles are good.

At least they wrote and produced their own work, instead of needing a score of people doing that for them like pretty much all modern artists do...

Wow! People who are even too dumb to detect a joke/sarcasm in real life? And they think you're the idiot?
