Love story

By theatreismylife - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was sitting next to the guy I like and he was doing homework. Then, he looks up, his eyes meeting mine. His smooth voice mutters my name as his face inches closer to mine. I can feel his minty breath against my face. My pulse is racing. Then, he says, "What's a pronoun?" FML

c'mon thats an easy answer... ...Now I could tell you Rafaella Gabriela and Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla and Albert Andreas Armadillo found an aardvark, a kangaroo, and a rhinoceros. And now that aardvark and that kangaroo and that rhinoceros belong respectively to Rafaella Gabriela Sarsaparilla and Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla and Albert Andreas Armadillo! Whew! Because of pronouns I can say, in this way: "WE found THEM and THEY found US, and now THEY are OURS and WE're so happy." Thank you pronoun! You see a pronoun was made to take the place of a noun, 'Cause saying all those nouns over and over Can really wear you down.

#239, that SchoolHouse Rock excerpt from the Pronoun song is just spot on. It brings tears to my eyes. Haha, what an amazing thing you have done. x)

Today, I was sitting next to the girl I like and she was doing homework. I looked up and her eyes met with mine. My heart was pounding. Maybe I'd finally get the courage to ask her out. I started muttering her name as my face inched closer to hers. My pulse was racing - I simply couldn't bring myself to do it! Finally, I just asked "What's a pronoun?" FML

I think it's his lack of the command of the English language she has a problem with.

Apparently people don't understand sarcasm, the word "articulate", or both. In any case, I still chuckled.

Work with it! The best bonds are formed over a mutual love of grammar. I may be a dork, but in my experience this stuff really turns on the hot English majors.

Nice one, #2. I don't know OP, either this guy is pretty dumb for not knowing what a pronoun is, or you're pretty young (like 7th grade or younger). If the latter is the case, then at least you're a great writer for your age! You could write romance novels right now!

or he could be foreign... you kmow because there is more than one country

Whats so FYL about that? I find it very sexy, apart from his lack of intelligence..
