OP has to be use to sorting these things out... they also are probably more use to milking the situation than having these types of issues

ydi for having a twin.
Nomad, read the damn post. It said his NEW maths class. -_-
Evil twin excuse!! You can actually use it if your attempt to do something fails now!!
The OP's from Australia and the semester has just started here for many schools.
On a day when your brother is absent, you should go in his classes and pretend to be him while coming onto his male teachers. ;P
ahahaha!
that would be awesome
you could always make him absent.
Hahaha, that sux, fyl, and fherlife 4 bein creeped on by yer brother =P
hahaha god what did your brother do?
Lol i agree with #2 but the teacher should know it wasnt him i mean do you both wear the same matching outfits when yall go out?
Considering that this is from NSW in Australia, every school here has to wear uniforms - so yes, they would wear the same thing.
this one seems a little absurd
wouldn't someone have told her that she had two students who are identical twins?
I'm in in two different classes with twins, one in each at different times and because we travel between schools for those lessons they're never at the school at the same time and the teachers have got them mixed up in the playground even if they've seen them before in the day, they can't remember what EVERYONE is wearing, can they?
The school might have uniforms, so they HAVE to look identical.
But yeah, FYL lol
Have a talk with your brother...
#7: Why should someone do that? Sometimes you recognize the name, sometimes not...sometimes they are related, sometimes not...
Jack Smith and Bob Smith might be identical twins while Peter Smith isn't even far related...
#9, I also have a common last name. So there are more than one Miller's at my school. But it helps that my twin is a guy.
seems like an easy fix. "thats my twin brother"
Yeah, but that's such an obvious comedy excuse that she might not have believed it. XD Maybe he did try to tell her. *lol*
Your brother sounds smart. XD
yes, but it MIGHT sound like an excuse if she doesnt know that her students are twins

fake.
i just realised, wouldn't the teacher realise that you were different people if they were periods that were next to each other?
Most people dont walk out of a classroom, and then back in...
It's very possible though..as some teachers teach more than one class (I.E. a creative writing class and a basic English class.) I've had the same teacher twice in one day. And perhaps she thought he left to go to the bathroom and then came back for the next class..
i've forgotten stuff in class and had to go back
#99 - On 08/06/2009 at 4:41pm by bethyb
or maybe he would go back for more ;)
LOL jk

Maths? Obviously not someone who excels in English....
It appears that you are not aware that in some parts of the world (such as Wales) "maths" is correct. Consider yourself informed.
Don't be an idiot. The whole world doesn't abide by the United States of America's grammar laws.
Yeah not everyone lives in America you dick. It's called maths in England, so don't assume that your country's way of saying is correct all over the world.
#18 Try and be little less close minded.
how do Americans say maths?
'Math' is the bizarre Americanism. Obviously you're not expanding your horizons.
well i asked how they said it didn't i, what more do you want
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
sorry we dont abide by your dumbass grammar maths? wtf is that
@timtam, I think the part about expanding horizons may have been directed at number 18... not sure, but even if it wasn't, you can pretend that and then everyone is happy. :)
ha are you trying to troll again. Stop trying to pick a fight

AMERICA! FUCK YEA!
Fuck you britfags.
Math class is singular here. If you have multiple math classes then you state them individually such as "geometry" and "algebra." Saying maths is like saying geeses or trying to pluralize the word "jeans."
It's 'maths' because it's an abbreviation of 'mathematics', genius.
Firstly in Britain we say maths, and since we invented the language it means Americans insulting this should shut their fucking mouths, if you think you can speak better go make your own language.
I understand other countries hating America as a whole but I am really sick of everyone ragging on individual Americans as though we are all the same stupid, ignorant asshole. It's not our damn job to learn how every country says everything, and it's pretty normal to assume if the person is speaking your language they are from your country. I know plenty of slang, alternate spellings etc. That other countries use. I didn't know they say maths in other countries it sounds really funny to me. It doesn't make me close-minded, ignorant, or mean I need to "broaden my horizon".
Ugh sorry I am sick of the hate on America!
And OP: that sucks, that was probably way embaressing, but also I would think you would have been in plenty of similar situations.
Everyone who's getting upset needs to relax. Yes, the guy wasn't aware that it's said differently in different parts of the world, but you don't need to go attacking all Americans and getting self-superior like that. And Americans: Please be aware that the way we speak is not the way everyone speaks. Thanks.
@ OP: Wow, that really sucks. Hopefully you were able to sort it out with the principal and your teacher (or better, switch classes... I've met people who would hold a grudge anyways).
#46: who insulted "maths"? I am pretty sure every language ever has been butchered because language changes constantly. And of course the language we speak in america is different than in England because it's a whole fucking different continent seperated by an ocean. Makes sense to me...
Sorry if this is a double post I wasn't quick enough to just edit. And also I saw that the person had said "expanding" not "broaden"...wouldn't want to get shit for getting it wrong or anything.
dude!!! RELAX!!!!! they aren't hating on America or Americans and they are just trying to inform everyone that not everyone in the world thinks and speaks the way Americans do (and even all Americans don't speak and think the way other Americans do), so chill the eff out!
and why would you think he was from America when it clearly states on his fml that he is from australia?
No, it isn't normal to assume that if someone speaks your language they're from your country. And even if it is, he wasn't speaking american, he was speaking English, which is not an american language. It's the British language. I only hate on individual americans who think the entire world is american, not the whole country, because that'd be ignorant.
#65 - On 08/06/2009 at 1:25pm by arienh4
They don't think he was from america. Someone criticized his use of "maths" and in America it's traditionally referred to as "math." I really don't understand what the big deal is. Math...maths... who cares. Let's call it mathematics so no one has to freaking fight about it. Being from America, I STILL hear the use of "maths" so it isn't totally unbeknownst to American culture.
Actually #46, 45, 24, 23 all sound like they think Americans are ignorant because OH MY GOD WE DON'T SAY MATHS!!!!!
It is 100% my bad for not realizing "Maths" was used IN the FML til well after I commented, at first I thought he was referring to something someone had said in a comment. However, because the country the OP is from doesn't make a difference in the FML, I don't usually look to see what country they are from anyways.
And if I am having a conversation with someone about something random (i.e where they are from wouldn't make the slightest difference in the conversation) on the internet, and they are speaking English and what they are saying doesn't make it obvious they are from another country, it doesn't hurt anyone for me to imagine they are somewhere in my country typing the reply...even if in reality they are all the way in England. I would say that is fairly normal. I don't think the entire world is American, but in an instance when DOESN'T MAKE A FUCKING DIFFERENCE...well...it doesn't make a fucking difference. Please refer to the above paragraph as to why I didn't notice he was speaking "English" and not "American". (also, it's still technically called English here, but you are apparently too high and mighty for that)
Now maybe I'm wrong here, because I am no language expert, but I am pretty sure English was probably taken from another language...which was taken from another language...which was taken from another language.
Anyways...continue all the bashing...I'm off to have a life now :)

i'm american. saying maths vs saying math seems to make more sense. seeing as though there are multiple types and branches of math.
eh.
its just culture.
Ok...I made this account JUST to say this....
Seriously
ONE person bitches about the way somebody spells
and EVERY American is ignorant, pathetic, stupid ect
So fuck off that's being ignorant yourself you assholes seriously
Stop being selfish
Talking shit because of one person
That's PATHETIC like horribly pathetic
I never even caught that the OP spelled it 'maths' untill i started reading all this bullshit
Who the fuck cares
If you want to talk shit...
Make sure you can actually prove yourself with more than just ONE person proving it...
you made it just to comment on this, but you have to admit thats one creepy ass username for one post... i like how you called them out though, because they probably won't listen to one word you just said and come back with something completely different such as, "Yea well Americans, take drugs, pick their buttholes, are afraid of nudisim, ride unicorns, fly, push buildings over with their pinkys, juggle with cars, sit and laugh at things that arent funny, have a good time, cry, sleep, eat, you know pretty much the essentials...
Actually the language was invented by Germans, or rather Danes, and corrupted by the French. Learn your history.
@73 At no point did I say that, nor did I say a single thing negative about Americans in general at all. Get your facts right. I merely pointed out that the whole world doesn't abide by your grammar laws.
It's the fucking internet who gives a shit how some one spells or their lack of grammar or their lack of knowledge of other types of grammar. It's not like the way a person types on the internet is the way they talk or write in real life. All the grammar/spelling nazi's need to go die in a fire.
whoa. this thing is WAYYYY too long :P
#124 - On 08/06/2009 at 9:32pm by Fogie
that's what she said.
#126 - On 08/06/2009 at 10:17pm by carolizzle712
god. what is your problem? there is english, which is commonly used around the words, especially within the commonwealth countries, where.. american english, or simply american, is just not recognized as a language, especially in the education systems.
deal with it. it's not "british english", just ENGLISH because, why? ENGLISH is from ENGLAND.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_English
American English is a dialect of the English language, stop being a bitch, you don't speak English, you speak American.
Your dialect is not recognized anywhere else in the world.
Those people who do not know about different english spellings, do they not read books or watch shows from other countries? I'm from Hong Kong and I always notice when they say things like "aluminum" instead of "aluminium" on tv.
awwh man that's the downside of having a twin a guess. I'm sure they sorted it out, but FYL for a horrible first impression.
Trolls: if you say YDI go get unborn
unborn.... do you come back as a born-again then turn into an undead? creepy
#97 - On 08/06/2009 at 4:28pm by spoo
Trolls: Trolling 101: How to troll
Wrong: YDI for existing
Right: YDI for not killing your brother in the womb
Next weeks lesson: H0w 2 anoy thru 7Ypin'
OP: Damn, that sucks. Dye your hair to avoid future mix ups? FYL all the same
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
YDI for typing "maths" instead of math. Jk, jk.
don't blame your brother, i love older women too, 10 years older is my limit though haha.
Oops. Presumably the principal got things sorted out for you?
I have a thing for older women too... sigh... but don't usually get myself screamed at for it. *is a girl and does not come on too strongly, especially not during classes!*
#39 - On 08/06/2009 at 11:51am by Tria
Well at least you talked to the principal and told him the problem. Even if he didn't beleive you, you just need to call your parents and tell him that you have a twin.
YDI for not being a manly man who likes older women like your brother, you faggot.
*Likes older women* SHE'S PROBABLY VERY HOT, TOO.
I think it would be funny for this guy to come out of the closet
Lol! XD
Dye your hair or something.
I hope it turned out okay. =)
haha sucks for you! i'm sure she was really sorry though lol!
I get hard-as-fuck boners all the time from hot teachers, but it seems to be all good when you're wearing jeans.
Algebra in 9th grade? I'm sorry, but I took algebra in 7th grade, and it was an 8th grade class...
Algebra II in my school is sophomore year. It depends, doesn't mean he's stupid or anything.
#89 - On 08/06/2009 at 3:43pm by stereopump
I don't care if you were taught earlier or later, but if you're old enough to be my dad, then can I have your wife's number (provided she's attractive?)
#71: There are still plenty of school systems nowadays that structure their mathematics programs like #85 describes. We had Algebra I as either an honors class for 8th graders or a regular level class for 9th graders. It totally depends on where you live.

Maths? British english is stupid
First, they invented the language, they can do what they want with it. Second, it's maths because it's an abbreviation of "mathematics". Unless you're claiming that it should be "mathematic", as in "I just went to my mathematic course". But that would be stupid.
Hey, it may be stupid, but at least it isn't as lazy as American english tends to be.
who cares if you invented the language!?
you haven't done shit lately
YDI 4 goeng 2 skool! LOL!
Your brother likes cougars! LOL
as another poster stated, they could have the same last name and not be related. i.e. I know a dan smith and an eric smith... one is Irish and the other is black. but anyway FYL.
you should have said something when she was talking to you. =/
YDI FOR NOT WINNING THE SPERM RACE BY YOURSELF
Wow, you obviously don't know anything about how identical twins occur.
#141 - On 08/07/2009 at 10:30am by xerwb2
don't you have anything better to do than make stupid comments on fml's you think are made up?
Your face is fake. stfu. (:
You don't know if it's fake, so don't say anything.
Also, in the rules:
"Don't post any comments which comment on the validity of an FML (screaming "Fake" for example), or even on whether the FML deserves to be on the website. Don't ruin the website for the other users."
hahaha i would LOVE to have a twin, my evil mind has nowhere to go because they aren't effective, i'm always missing a very important factor, such as a twin to blame it on
why didnt you explain to her the situation, before the yelling dragged on.
I just imagined this in my head and laughed(:
#90 - On 08/06/2009 at 3:51pm by YoStephy123
I can tell you didn't walk into your new englishes class.
.....I don't know if it's funny or not that you apparently actually do have an evil twin. Wow.
At least you didn't get thrown out of your Englishes class, and I wish I had an evil twin...
Actually, English is a hodgepodge language derived from a mix of Germanic, Norman, and Latin languages. To claim that any one person or culture invented it is pretty ignorant. If you're a languages geek, check out Merriam-Webster online. It talks about how English came to be.
For those of you wondering why the OP didn't yell back, in other countries, that plain isn't done. Discipline is a whole lot harsher in other countries' schools than it is in the US, and raising your voice at a teacher isn't acceptable behavior, deserved or not.
Different countries have different usages for the same concept, even if it's the same language family. It's called slang and idiom, and it's not confined to English. Ask a Quebecois and a Parisian to speak to each other and see how confused they get, even though they're both speaking French :) I think both the Americans and the Europeans on this thread could stand to be a whole lot more tolerant and less arrogant.
No kidding about the tolerance bit. I haven't really seen anyone in other languages be so intolerant of different dialects...my French teacher just laughs any time she tells us the difference between Canadian french and french-french...and the same occurred when I was in Canada as well.
Sometimes I wonder if it is just something in the drinking water of the english speakers or what. P:
i disagree with the tolerance thing. ive never seen a british or australian person EVER call out an american on their spelling of words. ever. they all realise you guys spell shit differently. but i ALWAYS see yanks calling out everyone else for their spelling. i get on average someone making some dumbass comment about how i cant spell my own username once every 3 weeks, sometimes several times in a day, im only saying 3 weeks because theres sometimes downtime when im not actually arguing with someone...
notice in this thread again how it starts because an american made some wise ass comment about poor spelling. when youre insulting someone for their spelling out of ignorance, you deserve to be insulted back. thats all there is to it. if i see any european or australian person commenting inappropriately on american dialect ill be sure to shoot them down too.
by the way, what youre discussing about the origin of language, irrelevent. as british english is still the most common dialect and is the originator of american english it is common sense to refer to it as the correct form. given that nobody uses old english or latin anymore, and the other influences have either dissipated or evolved into languages of their own. american english is not the evolution of british english, and is simply a bastardisation of its original form. for those still speaking the older british english it would make sense to refer to it as such.
dude....
" For those of you wondering why the OP didn't yell back, in other countries, that plain isn't done. Discipline is a whole lot harsher in other countries' schools than it is in the US, and raising your voice at a teacher isn't acceptable behavior, deserved or not. "
you've obviously NEVER been to an australian school.
the OP is from nsw, australia.
and from first hand experience... 'raising your voice at a teacher'
is done on a regular basis, believe me.
lol i've been in so many classes where the teacher just runs out crying because he/she just can't take it anymore.
please learn more about the countries you make comments about... before you state them down as fact and expose more americans to your ignorance bubble.
Look on the one about the person who was eating bread to calm her stomach, then found out she had celiac's disease. There is a Briton berating her for not using the British spelling "Coeliac's"
And, OP, FYL. :P Hope you got it straightened out!
I had a teacher was from Australia...that's how they say it, maths.
I don't entirely believe this one, you could have told her your name, she would have looked at the call sheet... I just can't believe this is real, but if it is, I'm sorry your twin is a jerk.
The fact that this story got through just shows how fucked this site is
FAKE! 15 minutes is a long time. Get your moderating skills together FML people.
That doesn't mean it's fake, he could just be over exaggerating
WTF is wrong with that teacher?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? doesn't the teacher read the name charts???
@113 and all of you talking bout what English originated from, the truth is it's from an Indian language called Sanskrit, and another language called Latin, or atleast those are the main two languages.
Sanskrit and Latin is also what almost all languages are based. Either both or one of them.
Wow... Dude, I feel completely sorry. Can't believe your twin would do that to your teacher.
#143 - On 08/08/2009 at 1:20am by Bl00dyAphrodite
Well I hope you and your brother don't have the same englishs teacher as well ahaha :D
YDI for referring to it as "maths".
FYI, in Europe they really do refer to it as "maths."
Er, in Australia. Whatever. x3
We had three garrets in my grade - a brother and a sister (not twins), and third boy who wasn't related at all to the first
