Today, in class, we were discussing stereotypes. We were asked about common ones about nearby cities. A guy said, "Well, they say Lumberton has the prettiest girls." My teacher asked if any of us were from Lumberton, so I raised my hand. The guy quickly said, "Nevermind." FML

Today, our class was focusing on discrimination, and our teacher asked us if anyone had ever felt discriminated against. I put my hand up to share a story, and my teacher immediately said "It's because you're ginger, isn't it?" That's not what I was going to say. FML

Today, I went downtown with my friends. A group of guys came up to us and started hitting on everyone except me. Then one of them said, "Do you girls hang out with her to make yourselves look better?" FML

Today, I was downtown with my boyfriend around Noon when we walked past a few guys who shouted out to me "You're the most beautiful girl we've seen all day". My boyfriend's response was "It's still early." FML

Today, I said something in class and someone mimicked me. In a self-pitying mood, I exclaimed, "Everybody hates me!" The girl behind me then said, "Pretty much." FML

Today, in class the guy next to me was talking to a girl across the room using gestures to help get across his message. Apparently, pointing at me is the best way to say "ugly." FML

Today, at lunch, I was talking to my friends about having a boyfriend. Suddenly, some boy I don't even know said, "Nobody wants to date that ugly bitch." FML

Today, I was walking by a bunch of pretty girls. I'm not the most attractive boy, so I walked by nervously. I heard one yell, "Hey cutie!" I turned to look, and they started laughing. She said, "Oh my god, sorry! I assumed you were cute from your butt!" Apparently, my ass is nicer than my face. FML

OP, don't let a no talent ass clown dictate how you feel about yourself. We are all beautiful people and deserve somebody who loves us and takes care of us and treats us right. Obviously he's not even in the running.

Hey, don't take that comment to heart. Whether he was kidding or not shouldn't matter to much. Who cares about his opinion on your looks. Even if he was kidding. You shouldn't. The only thing that TRULY matters is how YOU feel about yourself. Not others. Although it is pretty nice to be complimented on your looks ^^ Only pay attention to the positive things people have to say about your looks. The negativity doesn't matter. I bet you're a very beautiful girl. Hope you weren't affected deeply by his comment :/

That guy is a douche but I can say that is the only good stereotype I've ever heard about Lumberton. I've never spent much time there though... If this is even the same place. Op you don't need to listen to him though....

I'm going to assume it is in Texas, which is the city next to me. I've only heard the racist stereotype.

I'm from NC and it's about half an hour from me and I have never heard anything good about that place. They're all racists there too. Or so I hear...

There's apparently like 50 lumbertons everywhere and they all have bad reps. I live an hour away from one in nc and you never hear anything good about it.

I'm sorry OP :( That was an unnecessary comment. What a jerk he is and to people like him: **** THEM! He's probably just trying to make himself feel better by being mean to others. Keep your head up and smile OP. :)

Well, I applaud you on your effort for proving that stereotypes are negative and unhealthy representations of groups of people. Keep it up.

He could have just been embarrassed. We all know how if someone calls someone else in the school cute or pretty, you get picked on. If not, he's an asshole.
