Today, I was going on a dinner date with a girl I had just met. After I picked her up I asked her if she would like to get lobster. She looked at me and asked if those were the red ones. Confused I nodded. She replied, "Sorry, I don't eat red meat." I laughed. She was serious. FML

More like FHL!!! Was she blonde?

#2 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:07pm by Demon

um, because the girl was stupid and didn't get the concept of red meat...hahahha.

#3 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:08pm by fthelife

shes so smart

#4 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:08pm by dontcallmekim

Well, I'd say it's an fml because the dude apparently can't find any dates that are smarter than a box of rocks.

#5 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:08pm by weinerdog

Well. She's a keeper.

#6 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:10pm by TurtleGenius

This is when you turn around and drop her off at home

#7 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:13pm by omglolydi

This FML reminds me of my ex (not ex at the time) whom I convinced her that I didn't complete 7th grade and I had to go back or else they would take away my HS diploma.

#8 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:13pm by Lou_Briccant

BAHAHAHAHA! Well at least shes a cheap date!

#9 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:14pm by UnCensoredBitch

k yeah this is kinda a pointless fml :S

ahahahaha moron

#11 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:22pm by kidneedsalife

you should keep going out with her as a joke and just fuck with her head until you get bored and tell her you are looking for someone that isn't as smart as her, and then call her retarded just to confuse her.

#12 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:22pm by Uconnrunner

haha #2 i was gonna ask the same thing.

#13 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:23pm by mk893

hahaha that is actually hilarious..
poor girl.

#16 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:30pm by sLap

Not really an FML... But you should put it on notalwaysright.

#17 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:30pm by Aristai

hahah. but i don't get what being blonde has to do with it.

#18 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:30pm by amoureaux

dump asap, she'll claim she doesn't eat red meat when you try to slip it in her mouth too

#19 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:31pm by chasem

roflmaowtfbbq no oral =(

#23 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:39pm by chasem

i hope to god she's really fucking hot. If she is you can skip step 2 in #15's response

#24 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:40pm by YallNoobs

WHY are you buying this girl lobster??? Are you insane?

1. Buy her a salad.

2. Afterward, tell her that you heard on the news that there was a samonella outbreak in the area and it was traced to green foods like salads.

3. Tell her that scientists have just discovered that semen kills the samonella bacteria, but it must be swallowed as soon as possible.

Done!

#25 - On 04/06/2009 at 8:41pm by thugbert

well at least youre not dumb as a stump. so more like fhl. :]

Oh yea, she's a keeper alright.

hey hey #2 no insulting the blonds! There are plenty of us intelligent blonds in the world!

To the OP, well at least you got a good early warning on this one! Not really a FML so much as FHL.

#41 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:13pm by rushquickfast

Haha! Though it makes me sad to see the lobsters all in those little tanks...but they taste really good, so I try to forget it! ;D

#42 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:14pm by sondramcfail

Well, at least you know she's an idiot from the outset. Fuck and chuck, indeed.

#43 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:15pm by aupilot

hahaha what an idiot. she reminds me of my ex. and #41 FTW

#44 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:23pm by meddude

Sorry about the double post!!

FML hiccuped :(

#45 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:28pm by PureGold

Well, SHE'S a keeper.

#46 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:28pm by amanda_panda_

she obviously does eat red meat, otherwise you wouldnt be paying for lobster on a first date.

#47 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:29pm by shmunk

#149 - On 08/31/2009 at 11:44am by Rach_star

FHL. What an idiot.

#51 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:41pm by Trix_Disorder

I'm a natural blonde, have a cumulative college GPA of 3.7 [after 4 years] and am planning on attending graduate school. The assumption that hair color is corollary to intelligence is not only inaccurate (especially since the majority of "dumb blondes" happen to be bottle blondes) but it is also ridiculous and unfounded. How is that statement any better than asking if she were of a minority ethnic group? I'm not trying to personally attack you however. After all, it is society as a whole that is flawed and continues to perpetuate this ridiculous fallacy about hair color being indicative of stupidity.

That said, OP, this girl is obviously not very intellectually gifted. I'm sure you can do better for yourself.

looks like you picked you a winner, Bobby

#53 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:49pm by 7_______7_______

and by the way, why would you be buying this broad a fucking lobster. If you ask me, she'd have been content with a big Mac...

#54 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:51pm by 7_______7_______

haha stupid
it's ok, just take her out for a burger. cows aren't red =)

#55 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:51pm by observer12

Once again. Why do FML's like this one make it on the site. It's not that funny. And it's not a FYL. It's a FHL for being so stupid.

#56 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:56pm by kandy

LMAO. good luck with that one. i agree with what people said, i hope she's at least hot if nothing else.

#57 - On 04/06/2009 at 9:59pm by Marysenjo

haha. that chick is stupid :)
good luck. hahahahaha.

#58 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:04pm by caretoshare

You sure picked a winner. Genius.

Honestly, there is nothing wrong with eating some red meat.I know some people think it's bad for you But don't use that bull$#¡t excuse when he's willing to pay money for expensive food. Dumb that b¡t€# NOWWWWW!

#61 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:07pm by laxingitup

Btw...what does FHL mean? :S

#62 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:08pm by caretoshare

So shes either six and your a creeper. Or shes a blond with an IQ that matches her shoe size.
Either way sucks to be you

#63 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:10pm by lolacaust

LOLOLOLOL

I swear this is the best FML on here....SO SO Funny!!! oh my gosh..dying of laughter

#64 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:15pm by dol567

I don't get any of this.

#65 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:19pm by Coffee_Kaioken

#62, fhl means f his or her life

#66 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:20pm by ninjachik

LOL, there are so many people that don't know what "anonymous" means, it's pretty sad. =D

#67 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:21pm by turtlellama

wow... idiot!

#68 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:21pm by xyz8910

#62 - FHL = F**** her life

Like FML, FYL...just think of what the middle letter would be

#69 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:26pm by dol567

bet u all the money i have and will ever make that shes blonde ahahahaha

#70 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:30pm by cwcwwang

Man, I totally know what that's like...
No matter how pretty the girl, it's never worth it.

#71 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:34pm by Vinatierri

#52, you just opened my mind. I will no longer think of blondes as dumb bitches. Now I will just think of them as bitches ;). Stereotypes happen. fmylife.com is not exactly the best place to go about changing them.

#72 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:34pm by alwex

#68 is my hero.

#73 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:36pm by Singularity

Is this the only girl you could get to go on a date with you?

#74 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:37pm by TBD3

lol at 65. especially since she sounds like she's trying too hard to come off intelligent. no one talks like that.

and OP, at least you found out she was an idiot before you spent all that money on a lobster dinner.

#75 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:40pm by RyeBreadBoy

I totally know what this is like. No matter how pretty the girl--it's not worth it!

#76 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:41pm by Vinatierri

the blonde who says she has a cumulative gpa of 3.7 grades do not reflect ones intelligence it shows that you work hard and prepare well for test and papers, and good at memorizing information.

#77 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:54pm by Dasmi3

I once had a gf who didnt know that Eskimos where of the same species as us.

#78 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:58pm by notyouraverage

She's a keeper. That is, if you need a replacement fence post any time soon.

#79 - On 04/06/2009 at 10:59pm by craigahh

I love the amount of people on here that doesn't get it, ahahaha

#52. This is the internets.
The most appropriate reply to your post is:

tl/dr

#81 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:17pm by free_Aus

Were you, by chance, on a date with Jessica Simpson? She's incredibly brilliant when it comes to meats, I hear.

#82 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:25pm by Tomboy

you kinda deserved that one for being shallow. get to know someone a little before going out with them. especially if they are your run-of-the-mill 'hot'.

#83 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:37pm by mlif_iilwafyog

77, you dont get a 3.7 in college by memorization. in hs yes, college no.

#84 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:53pm by notyouraverage

Be glad you got rid of that one,,,

#85 - On 04/06/2009 at 11:58pm by volleyballnick

I like how #52 tried so hard to prove how intelligent sie is.

Welcome to the internet, where no one cares. (I also don't think anyone *really* believes there is any correlation between hair color and intelligence. All it is is a stupid, overplayed joke that hasn't been funny for about a thousand years.)

#84, depends on the class/program/degree. I've taken plenty of classes that require nothing but the ability to memorize vast amounts of information in a short amount of time. Critical thinking not required. How impressive your college GPA is is hugely dependent on what you're studying, I think. Medicine is a whole lot different than "recreation." (Do they even have "recreation" degrees anymore?)

#87 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:05am by wholeon

Seriously dude, if she's hot stick with it. Go find a smart girl on the side to get married to. The dumb one still won't know what the eff is going on between you.

Keeping the smart one from knowing you're cheating though, that's a different story.

#88 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:08am by vt_mruhlin

If you're at the age where the girls you pick up have intellect like this, going to a seafood place is way overdoing it (at least ordering such an expensive meal like lobster is.)

#89 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:13am by Nakedsquirrel

well to be honest with you, if you wanted to impress her, you failed misserably. she does not even probably know how to appreciate good food at least. now if she is very hot, i might consider overlooking that fact, but overall i could say, don't bother. with that girl.

#90 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:24am by NivoXZ

#82 made my day a whole lot better.

My vote is don't take someone for lobster unless it is a serious relationship. That way, you won't waste money on a complete dumbass.

#92 - On 04/07/2009 at 12:45am by luckyyyme

Look on the bright side... you saved some dough.

#93 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:16am by xkaokaox

YDI because you can't pick smart girls to date... seriously.

#94 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:32am by poopooface

LMAO

#95 - On 04/07/2009 at 1:40am by tangello

Not really an FML. Seems like you got a clear sign that she's a colossal dumbass, and now you know to avoid her.

#96 - On 04/07/2009 at 2:26am by skierguy

I'm sure someone else has said it but lobster is seafood...red meat is from animals that go moo. YDI for not pointing that out.

#97 - On 04/07/2009 at 2:53am by DULMAGE

#52 actually made me laugh.
you're trying to convince us all that blodes are not always dumb (which is stupid because we all know this anyway.... no one takes it seriously) and you use the word 'fallacy' incorrectly:)
a fallacy is a flaw in reasoning.
FAIL ON YOU.

#98 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:13am by schadenfreudeFTW

...Just when you thought Jessica Simpson's brain-dead antics about the dreaded chicken-fish were over...someone pipes up with this gem about lobsters.
Doesn't it suck how the challenged look just like the norms?

#99 - On 04/07/2009 at 5:19am by nebjamin69

Hope she was hot.

#100 - On 04/07/2009 at 5:46am by Jareth

Not worth bothering. Unless she was hot.

#102 - On 04/07/2009 at 6:20am by MajorLeeScrewed

1. Did you ask for a date because of her looks, or IQ?

2. Just because she gets something wrong like that doesn't mean she's a moron - just confused about some things. She could be a total wizard at integral calculus, for example.

3. Did you try talking to her about topics that actually interest you? I'm sure that after the first 5 seconds, discussing the colour of lobster meat loses its novelty anyway. :o)
If you enjoy talking about the same things, does it matter if she gets some things wrong?

4. We've all shown our complete lack of knowledge on something that those around us think is universally important. (I chose my time to do this on a New York sidewalk - my girlfriend hid and pretended not to know me :o)

5. She could also be the most loving, caring, gentle and thoughtful person on the planet. But you would probably have to talk with her for more than 30 seconds to find that out.

#103 - On 04/07/2009 at 7:55am by tipple

Wow... at least you know you can outsmart her...

#110 - On 04/07/2009 at 2:32pm by infantrygirl

well, its either she's retarded, or will do anything to get out of going on a date with you.
either way, NEVER GO OUT WITH HER AGAIN.

#111 - On 04/07/2009 at 4:16pm by cheerloveexx3

Yeahhh....well yeah shes probably blonde or if she is drop dead gorgeous i wouldn't have left her right away and taken her home for the night. If shes ugly just ditch right away...i mean you can do so much better

i love how #52 tried defeating a stereotype about "dumb blondes" by trashing "bottle blondes." riveting. -____-

oh and btw i happen to be a bottle blonde, with a 4.0GPA. moral? stop talking shit over the internet. it doesn't impress anyone.

#122 - On 04/07/2009 at 9:57pm by tabyyy

Woah!!! Slow down there #122.

Stop talking shit over the internet. Then what would people have to do with their time?

Internet gods abound in anonymous forums. This will never change.

sounds like this little girl that was arguing that she didnt eat dark meat, she only ate legs and she didnt like breasts

#133 - On 04/08/2009 at 10:36pm by sunshyne84

grr @ 2
not all blondes are dumb. speak for yourself.

#134 - On 04/08/2009 at 11:04pm by heatherryo

Hahaha! That's actually kind of cute, but maybe that's just because I have a 3-year-old daughter who said something similar to that the other day.

Either way ... She sounds a little, erm, dull? Not the brightest star in the sky ... or, rather, if you will, the reddest fish containing red meat in the sea.

#135 - On 04/09/2009 at 12:09am by Oriina

#2, I'm blond and I'm the smartest person inside my household. You're ignorant for just assuming the woman was blond.

#137 - On 04/09/2009 at 4:05pm by IAmBridgette

this is my favorite fml EVER. Oh man. I wish people would post more stuff about other people being stupid.
I love that people like this exist.

#138 - On 04/10/2009 at 12:04pm by MelFoSho

oh blonds stfu about the smart blond thing. you know everyone saying the girl was blond is either kidding or just trying to piss you off. the fact that is does piss you off -as someone previousy, sarcastically stated- makes them feel so you aren't a dumb bitch, you're just a bitch.

lol to all comments and the OP.

#139 - On 04/11/2009 at 11:24am by latuka

Anyone can say they have a fabulous GPA on the internet. Doesn't prove anything.

#77: Your amazingly articulate post was a delight to read. I am astonished by the amazing intelligence required to formulate those sentences. Clearly you must be a god among men.

and your repetitive diction makes me want to hurl. Using big words wont make up for your lack of variety if you want to sound intelligent, nor does your final fragment of a sentence, a semi-colon would have been the proper punctuation mark in said instance, not a period.
FACE PWN!

p.s. Im an 18 year old guy. Awesome use of stereotyping as a response to the anger you felt at the previous commenters who were bashing blondes; truly an "amazing" example of both your maturity level and true intelligence.
Ouch. Im honestly glad I'm not you right now.
