Today, I got into an argument with a 7 year old. He said that Obama was the 44th President, I said he was the 42nd. Guess who was right. FML

Same thing different taste
My favorite letter is L
Today, my 8 year-old niece and I were arguing over how many letters were in the alphabet. Guess who was right. FML
Today, the kids I teach informed me that I had spelled my name incorrectly on the board. I looked at it and assured them that I had spelled it correctly. I'm 22 and a graduate student, they're six and mentally challenged. Guess who was right? FML
Today, I found myself arguing with a 6-year-old over a game of tag. FML
Outsmarted
Today, my son is smarter than average, almost genius level, and he has now reached an age where not only does he question me at every turn, he actually out-argues me 90% of the time and I can’t do anything about it because technically he’s right and I’m wrong. FML
Shorty
Today, I was mistaken for an 8th grader because of my height. I'm 32 years-old. FML
Today, I asked my teacher how old he was, and jokingly I said, "50?" Then he chuckled, so I laughed and said, "I was kidding… 42, 43, 44?" He then looked at me and said, "Are you trying to guess my age, or your grade percent in this class?" FML
Today, my dad spent 30 minutes incorrectly correcting me about our legal system. He thinks he knows more than me because he's been divorced twice. I'm a lawyer. FML
Book smarts
Today, my teacher marked a test question wrong, even though I was sure I got it right, so I went online to check. I found a government-approved website showing proof that my answer was correct. My teacher still counted it wrong, because, "We follow the book." That book's older than I am. FML
Meritocracy, huh?
Today, my dad got mad at me for not believing him when he kept repeating that our dear leader was appointing Judge Judy to the government. I then found out he wasn't far off, so I don't know which is worse, that he was technically correct about some TV judge, or that the actual "judge" is even worse. FML
Today, while I was babysitting my nephews, the 7 year old boy walked up to me and asked if I was a lesbian. I laughed it off. An argument ensued about my sexuality for a good two hours. I lost. FML

Actually, neither of them was right. Obama is technically the 43d President... Grover Cleveland was the only U.S President to serve two NON-consecutive terms, and therefore he was counted as TWO presidents. So, if you choose to be technical (Like me), Obama is the 43d.

Don't get in arguments with seven year olds. He probably read it off a poster at school. The end.

#29 and 82: You guys are assholes. #76: FTW. OP: Based on your intelligence, I'm betting your an uneducated scumbag living off of welfare? Go to school and get an education.

87: You were looking for "you're." You probably shouldn't be insulting anybody's education when you don't know the differences between your/you're.

#58 my problem with obama is that he is trying to change lot of what has made America so successful over the past 2 centuries. these bailouts are just to give the government more power of the businesses. the whole point of a market economy is for business to run without the interferance of the goernment. when one business falls because it was being run poorly and unethical, another business that does tings the right wa will rise. and his attempt to socialize medicine is absurd. i lived in canada for 27 years and socialized medicine sucks. and your comment about the other poster saying bush was the big problem and that obama is trying to fix his mistakes, the economy didn't get bad until the democrats took over the house and senate in 2006. kind of hard to get things passed in congress when the people who work with you have a completely different idea of how things should work.

#89 the economy didn't fall from one president and things are gonna have to get worse before they get better. The reason all our daughters are gonna be sex slaves of the chinese one day is that our country chose a credit system that god only knows how we thought could hold up. But it doesn't matter anyway because in 50 years all the gas will be gone and in 150 years we will have either blown ourselves back into the stone age or disease will have taken us all anyway.
