By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - Ghana - Accra

Today, I'm on holiday in Ghana. After having worn an anklet I bought here for the past two weeks, I was told that it's used by the local prostitutes to advertise their trade. FML

People go on holiday for new experiences, and you could've probably had some new ones that way.

And you actually believed that? I'm Ghanaian and whoever told you that is a fool

Which ankle did you wear it on? Right ankle is vaginal and oral only, left ankle is anything goes. Get shots before you go home - and not "money shots"

You ought to go to the National Zoo and see if you can catch the exhibit of the native flightless bird: the Ghana Rhea. After you see it, you'll have an uncontollable urge to clap.

Well, long ago, wearing red lipstick used to mean the same thing. Now it's just a fashion statement. :P

#32, depending on which lips you're talking about ;)

That's exactly why they did it. For some, red lips make you think about other red lips. Seems to have worked on you. I guess I'll just start wearing clear lip balm from now on. But it's still cherry! :P

Ghana is a beautiful country, must be awesome to vacation there. And I wear an anklet on my left ankle...

#35, so, what can I get for $12.82? What about $12.82 and a Walkman with an 80's mix tape featuring Wham! and Kajagoogoo?

#35 Don't answer that if you're "Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye"

#39, are you kidding me? It's "eye to eye?" For 30 years, I've been singing "I. D. Y." I didn't know what I. D. Y. meant, but "eye to eye" makes more sense.

That sounds tempting. Of course, of course. Anything goes. B)

Think of it as a special. For you, Humbert.

#67, thank you. It's funny that The Police got me to read that book, but the police will take me away if I act it out. (I'm not really into nymphets.)

I guess that makes you a Hohoe (really crappy Ghanaian joke).

The locals probably knew you had no clue and just laughed it off.
