Today, I was complaining to my husband about a busty but vapid celebrity, and he replied, "She doesn't need brains, honey, she has boobs. You wouldn't understand." FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I was talking to my husband about a work colleague, whose boyfriend is always sending her flowers and fawning over her. I mentioned how I've never been treated like that. He glanced up from his video game and said, "Shit, Mel. Get a boob job then." FML
Today, I was in the car with my boyfriend when I said, "I wish all the weight I gained just went to my boobs." His reply was, "They'd be HUGE." FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend refer to me as a “pretty but dumb chick” because I like horror movies and comedies over his boring pseudo intellectual dramas. I literally have two degrees and I'm working on a third, while he has neither, yet he thinks he’s smarter than me because of movies. FML
Today, my perfectly sane and healthy 90 year old grandmother had a heart to heart with me. She told me she'd pay for a boob job. When I asked why, she said, "Sweetie, you'll never attract someone with those tiny suckers." FML
Today, I was in the car with my husband complaining about the way I look. His response, "Babe, if I cared about the way you looked I wouldnt have married you." FML
Today, at my engagement party, I overheard my future father-in-law saying he was happy his son was marrying "the dumb, pretty one" because all the "smart ones" he dated at university were "nerds with small tits." FML
Today, my mom, sister, and I were talking about a friend's girlfriend. My sister's opinion of her was that she was cute but not hot. My mom agreed, saying that she didn't think that someone without boobs could EVER be hot. She then looked at me and said, "No offense." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were at a restaurant with a few other couples, and my boyfriend started to rant on how "all the hot chicks are dumb." Apparently, I'm either ugly or stupid. FML
Today, my boyfriend compared me to an unattractive actress. When I said it was sort of messed up to say that to me since she's not pretty, he said, "She's not as bad as you." FML
Today, while talking to my boyfriend, he got upset and accused me of making up words to make him feel stupid. All because I used the word "vapid." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

On the bright side...he's implying that you have brains. And it's better to base a relationship on brains that are compatible, than it is to be with someone solely because they have big jugs.

That wouldn't be a very original response.

FYI, #1, you should really understand how to write properly before you criticise others.

If your husband happens to complain about a male celebrity, say 'He doesn't need brains, honey, he has good dick. You wouldn't understand'.

I'm 100% sure boobs are not on the same level as genetalia. And most male actors aren't pornstars.

Well said, 45.

I don't think many celebrities go around making their penis size common knowledge..
DanielleinDC 33
The point is, if OP's hubby ever gripes about a celebrity, she can point out that as hot as he is, he doesn't need brains. Sadly, that's not true. Women like both. Men prefer beauty to brains because they see better than they think. Not to mention that although they were blessed with a brain and a penis, they don't have enough blood to run both simultaneously.

In some cases, men like that ruin society. Maybe you should talk to him.
Neonemerld 21
Woah now, #3, that is quite the generalization. How do you know he wasn't just joking?
Chumsword 8
In a lot of cases anyone can ruin society. What exactly was your point?
docscientist 9
Maybe the husband was making commentary about society.
TurquoiseJesus 15
Here's one for you: the husband is saying she is less attractive, but additionally the implication could be that she was intelligent (basically opposite to the celebrity). So, by the wife taking it as an insult more than a compliment, regardless of how it was meant, that means she is placing beauty over brains. So the way I see it, she is "ruining society" just as much as he is.

Yeah, I'd tell my husband, "yeah, I can get implants, but you can't fix stupid!" Lol.

So OP is mad that her husband said she had brains and no boobs. I thought women wanted to be known for their brains and personality now. Not their bodies?
NeatNit 32
what is 'busty' and what's 'vapid'? I don't understand.
cupcakechick 17
basically shes saying this celebrity had big **** and not very smart
cmayer 20
Use a dictionary. Or google. It's not that hard.

Someone's getting a dictionary for Christmas...

Ooh dictionary! Can't wait! Only... oh, wait..9 months to go. :'(

Vapid means she's dull basically. I only know that because of a previous FML ;)

you should defiantly not being letting him have any contact with your boobs just so.he understands
rocker_chick105 31
Yes OP, do it defiantly. Maybe you will feel better afterwards.

"defiantly not being" Error 404, sense not made.

Being letting -dumbass radar going off.

#47, If I could thumb up your comment 10 times, I would. Got me giggling.

Unfortunately he's right about one thing. If a girls got good breasts - all bets are off. However total dick move bringing you down like that.

...and small minds discuss people.

So you're effectively saying that most of the FML userbase is small minded!
sirpantselot 22
The full saying includes "average minds discuss events". I'd put FML in that territory.

Clearly, OP, hubby was thinking with his penile brain in that response.... Be the bigger person, let it pass, but let him know that was an insensitive and hurtful thing to say,,,make it a teaching moment and maybe he can rise above his douche nozzle dickish self! Good luck!
ladyLALAA 28
Bahahhaha, "douche nozzle" thanks for teaching me a new swear!

Glad to help! Vocabulary building on a Sunday morning!! Use it in good health!!
