Today, I brought a fluorescent tube to the store to make sure I got the correct replacement. Trying to charm the sexy cashier, I waved the tube in the air, saying "I need a new light sabre, there is no force left in this one and the Empire is attacking." Turns out she'd never heard of Star Wars. FML
hclagopus tells us more.
OP here. I did not try to pick her up - I am a 42 year old married father of three and even if I wanted a date I have enough knowledge of the world to know that hot twentysomething blondes prefer hot twentysomething hunks - but I did try to make her smile, and failed miserably. And my geek level is so low that I read paper papers and constantly need my twelve year old son to help with my Iphone. (Plus I`ve never seen the sequels) I realize the girl probably lacked humour more than Star Wars knowledge, but what the heck. My wife laughed her ass off when I told her, though, bless her.

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yeah because making star wars references tend to help with the ladies...

I find her lack of culture disturbing.

I'm gonna activate my nerd mode and just say that technically the Force isn't used for lightsabres. And also, how would that charm the cashier?

How is that charming at all?

You don't wanna be with somebody who doesn't like Star Wars anyway.

Even if that had worked, who (except girly nerds) would that impress?

And, at that moment, she ceased being sexy.
