Today, I ran into a friend I hadn't seen in a while. I swear I couldn't help it when the words "Wow, I bet you really regret that haircut." came out of my mouth. FML

Average office interaction

Today, I tried to compliment a coworker on her new haircut, saying, “Wow, it makes you look so much younger!” She raised an eyebrow and replied, “You mean I looked old before?” My brain short-circuited and I followed up with, “No, no, you just… looked older.” Everyone within earshot laughed while I wanted to crawl under the desk.

Foot in mouth syndrome. We all get it sometimes

The scary part is that you actually think you can't help your rudeness

That's not very nice

I, for one, thought it was a great compliment!

Ohh I get it #27, If you make someone feel self conscious and insecure especially someone you haven't seen in a long time, that qualifies as a compliment

42, the concept of Sarcasm is lost on you, isn't it?

You couldn't help it, OP? I suggest you work on your people skills.

Dick move, OP. But I'd say it is recoverable, just tell them you lost your manners since you've seen them last and laugh it off.

Unless you were trying to go for a completely unrelated cow pun, I fail to see what this comment was trying to achieve

I fail to see what this reply has to do with my comment

Oh, sMOOOth was unintended? Sorry about that :/

Wow, I bet you really regret that outburst

No, I think it was posted on FML because of the pride and joy.

That's something that should've stayed in your head OP >.>

The scary part is that you actually think you can't help your rudeness

Have you never seen something so shocking that it stuns you so that words just come out before your brain can recover? It could have been a really horrific hair cut. Like a mullet with purple highlights, or worse
