Today, a girl with a picture of One Direction as her desktop asked if I wanted to partner with her on a 70% law assignment. Two hours after saying no, I found out that she's a legal genius with a guaranteed job in the field and a near perfect GPA. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was passed over for the job of my dreams. I now have to watch as a girl I have on Facebook - a total moron - boasts daily about scoring the position instead. Turns out the interviewer was her uncle. FML
Today, a girl who's in charge of a group project that I get graded on, asked if Bill Gates was a Founding Father. She was totally serious. I'm screwed. FML
Today, my girlfriend got paid by the richest guy in our school to go to the Winter Formal with him. She took up the offer. FML
Today, the girl who tormented my life for nine years was hired at my part-time job. We're assigned to work together on a three-month-long project which will involve tons of communication. FML
Today, I asked a girl in my building out. She said yes, and told me her fee per hour. FML
Today, my sister and I heard back from a job we both applied to. I had used the knowledge from my MBA degree to write a six-page essay for the application, while she just copied and pasted hers from a random website. Guess who got the job. FML
Today, I found out that my ex-girlfriend got engaged to a coworker. I got her the job. FML
Today, I had an epic, two-hour conversation with a brilliant, beautiful future leader of our industry. She's an intern. I'm just some loser horndog of a senior manager in another department. FML
Today, it's the third time this year I was recommended to meet someone because we're "so smart, we'll get along." At dinner, this person complimented how I'd do great in their graduate course on data science. I helped develop the degree program. I can't believe I missed pinball for this. FML
Today, I joined a dating website and spent all day filling out and improving my profile. My first match is a guy who relentlessly tried to date me for all 4 years of high school. Now he just has more reasons to tell me how much we're meant to be. We're a 97% match. FML

Why would you say no because of their computer background?

one should never judge a book by its cover.

Around four people before you have made the same comment as you, its safe to assume you will be down voted.

yeah I am really sorry for that I've made a mistake here . actually I just happened read the fml without reading all the comments above and rushed down to make my own . later I realized that it was already there :P

You totally deserved that. Besides, what does liking One Direction have to do with intelligence? I love them and I'm fine.

Same goes for me. I'm hardly top-class material, but I passed out of school with fair grades, and know the difference between "your" and "you're", so I guess I'm not the worst, either.

Same I finished top of my class this year and I like one direction

Personally not a fan, but my roommate/best friend is. She's really smart and actually helps me with a lot of my own classes that she's not even in. Music taste does NOT equal intelligence. Two very separate parts of a person.

Your grade is going in one direction, down.

The wrong direction

That's what you get for judging people based on something so stupid. I would never shun someone because I didn't like the music they did

So many people saying OP deserved it. Have you SEEN the the audience at a One Direction concert? Practically rabid. Not to mention the Facebook fanpages and fanfictions.
Noreason89 6
Yes because everyone in a fanbase behaves exactly the same right? He does deserve it for being a judgemental douche
VeganVampyre 27
Um... Have you seen the audience at ANY concert? That's kinda just how they are...

Ever seen a mosh pit...?

"Rabid," meaning supporting a group of people they admire, you mean? Attend a football match and get back to me.

Well, her music taste is still shit. Next time stay away from fallacious reasoning (I.e. assuming music taste affects intellectuality and vice versa).

Never judge someones intelligence after their tastes.
mrlawlor7777 26
I assume you're intelligent because you like "Young Frankenstein".

YDI-that was rude. It shouldn't matter what people like on their own time (legal and consensual of course) and definitely shouldn't have affected this situation.
