Today, I finally finished my art project, which was worth 50% of my quarterly grade. I came in first period to give it to my professor. When she turned to look at it, her elbow hit her coffee and spilled it all over the canvas. I got 60%. She said I would have had a 100%, except for the giant coffee stain. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I brought my best painting yet to college. I showed it off and everyone loved it. Or almost everyone. When we came back from lunch break, we found someone had sharpied the words "JIZZ BUTT" all over it. That painting took two weeks to finish. FML
Today, I had to do a still life of a pillowcase for my drawing class. To make up for bad grades I've gotten before, I followed my professor's directions to a T. He took 19 points off because I drew the background when no one else did. We have to do it for every piece. FML
Today, as a respected artist, I was running a workshop with a bunch of rowdy college kids. I was in the middle of demonstrating a painting technique when I accidentally washed my paintbrush in my coffee instead of my paint water. They waited until I then drank from it to burst out in hysterics. FML
Today, I found out why my professor accused me of not handing in an important essay before the due date. Apparently she spilled coffee all over it and didn't dare to tell me. FML
Today, I finished a painting I'd spent 3 weeks working on for an exhibition. When I came back from lunch, my cat was perched above it on my desk. He looked at me, then down at the painting, then jumped down onto it. He slipped and smeared the wet paint everywhere, ruining the whole thing. FML
Today, while correcting essays, I spilled ketchup on a student's paper. I managed to successfully turn it into a happy smiley face but when proudly looking at the result, noticed it was right next to the big "F" that I had graded it. FML
Today, my teacher told me that she couldn't find my hand-written essay on the Renaissance, and that I have to re-do it all by tomorrow. I later saw my essay on her desk, covered in a massive coffee stain that made virtually everything unreadable. FML
Today, in an attempt to flirt with a cute guy in art class I barely know, I put on his sweater while he was in the bathroom. He came back just in time to see me spill white paint all over it. FML
Today, I saw a person in my class completing a project that was due two periods later and that they had just started in the bathroom. They got a better grade than me. FML
Today, my professor handed me back a paper I spent hours hours working on. At the bottom in red it said "D" followed by, "That was a gift." FML

Okay that pisses me off. I had a similar situation. I worked on my project which was suppose to be either a flower pot or cookie jar. I did a mix of a Goomba (mushroom guy from Mario) and a smurf. When I had finally sculpted it perfectly, I asked if I should cut the hat off first (which was the cookie jar lid) or paint it then cut. She told me to PAINT first. When I was finished, the clay had hardened too much. Had we cut it, the thing would have all broke. She then said, "don't worry I won't effect you on this. It was my fault", fully acknowledging it was her fault. She gave me fifty-something. I WAS PISSED!! On my marking sheet it said...."this was a cookie jar/flower pot assignment, yours is neither"

Yeah, that sucks. Your art teacher obviously smokes way too much crack. Can't do much about that, I'm afraid.

Surely they can make an allowance for that? She should step up and say it was her fault and mark it without the stain. I'd dispute it. If she said you deserved 100 you should get 100!! Good luck.

This is certainly fake. If the teacher spilt the coffee, then why would they mark down your grade because of it. As for suing for a good grade as suggested, which court do you sue for grades in?
