Today, I had to explain to a friend that the show writers for Glee did not write "Bohemian Rhapsody" and that Freddie Mercury did not steal the song from them. We're both 17 years old, and she reacted by kicking a chair at me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad forbade me from playing or listening to Queen because Freddie Mercury was gay. FML
Today, I actually had to explain to my sister that Shrek was not in fact based on a true story. She replied that I'm a "clueless twat". FML
Today, my friend and I were discussing music bands, and I asked who her favorite Queen member is. She looked at me like I was from another world and said, "I don't have a favorite British queen. That's like, so weird." FML
Today, I had to explain to my housemate that the cast of "The Crown" is not the real Royal Family impersonating themselves. FML
Today, my best friend and I performed a rap to our whole school. The rap was "made up" by our friend. After the performance, a lot of friends asked me why I did a rap from Hannah Montana. Apparently the rap was off of a show for 8 year olds. We are 17 and people think we watch Hannah Montana. FML
Today, I mistook my neighbor’s karaoke party for a heated argument and called the cops. When they arrived, everyone was in the middle of a dramatic rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody. FML
Today, I was in a band with some friends and we got our first gig at a local festival, but I'd already agreed to work serving drinks at the festival. My bandmates got really annoyed and kicked me out of the band. They then went ahead and performed the song that I WROTE, without me, at the festival where I was working. FML
Today, I finally worked up the courage to play my friends the demo CD that I've spent all summer recording. I didn't tell them it was me. Not even 10 seconds into the first song, my best friend asked me to turn it off because it sucked. FML
Today, I joined a new choir. My director asked me if my best friend was actually my girlfriend. Taken aback, I said no, I was not a lesbian. He then asked me to clarify my gender. FML
Today, my teacher called a friend and me out of class and told us we had been reported for plagiarism because our answers to a problem were nearly identical, and he said that I shouldn't have shared my work. This for an assignment where significant marks were awarded for collaborating with peers. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should have shoved the chair up her ass. It's what Jesus would have done.

Dude, no offense but I want to punch your friend in the face for thinking that the Glee writers would even possibly think of coming up with such a magnificent song such as "Bohemian Rhapsody"... Queen is the stuff man.

Is she also one of the people who didn't know who Anne Frank was till the Biebs visited the house?
NewYorkTaxi 12
No actually. I... Kind of like the OLD Glee, where they stood up for the underdog (Season 1), not to fond of the latest seasons, so I guess in some levels I am a gleek, but I heard of Anne Frank before this. Learned about her in Year 6 (10 years old) and my general passion for history began from there. OP: Despite liking the show on some levels, I do think your friend is an dumb idiot. I realise there is much better music than Glee.... I just happen to like a few covers. In fact I only watch it for Lea Michele.... So yeah.

Woooooah. Calm down there brother.

31 you know this wasn't a question directed at you...?
NewYorkTaxi 12
Yeah, I do realize that. It's just that I'm very defensive on my knowledge of History, especially being a studying it at AS Level and planning on studying it at University. I don't like anything suggesting otherwise. It's.... kind of linked to a lot of things that I don't wish to go over.

Oh man, someone put together a compilation of all the tweets written by crazy Bieber fans' who thought Anne Frank was Bieber's new girlfriend, and how much they hated her and thought she'd never be good enough for Bieber. It was both hilarious and awful at the same time.
NewYorkTaxi 12
OMG! 12, I'm so sorry. I read your comment wrong. I thought you meant is the glee fandom one of the fandoms who didn't know who Anne Frank was. Haha. Lesson learned, read comments properly.
NewYorkTaxi 12
47, I do now. Read the comment wrong. Haha. Sorry. I'd delete the comment if I could. I rush through reading stuff a lot and sometimes misread things. I'm trying to work on it. But habits die hard, so, yeah.

Rushing through reading stuff is a great way to learn history. Good luck!

There's worse things that can happen in a relationships than a disagreement about music than a tv show..
CharresBarkrey 16
Like ignorance or stupidity? Because that's what this FML is about, not a disagreement in music.
Ameel_fml 19
I couldn't be in a relationship with someone who didn't appreciate Queen's talent. That's just not a person I'd ever want to get to know.

No! No this is definately not one of those times! Freddy Mercury was a god amongst men, and Bohemian Rhapsody one of the greatest songs of all time! This isnt one of those petty arguements. Glee is whats wrong with people today. **** you Glee!

71 - Glee, Jersey Shore, Those 'Real Housewives' shows..... Ok, pretty much most of TV that isn't Doctor Who, Walking Dead, Orphan Black (and so on, for the better shows)- is what's wrong with people today. There are too many channels to fill, and so they let anyone who can afford a camera or get a sponsor, have a show.

Blasphemous, this is what media and failure to learn does to society! Freddy Mercury steal my ass, without him Glee would be a big steaming pile of poo >:(

Even with Freddie Mercury, it still is a steaming pile of poo.

Glee - ruining perfectly good songs since 2009.

Agreed!!!!

Remove her from the gene pool quickly!

Come on you guys we all know that glee invented music. Every song they sing is one that they wrote. The only reason other band sing the song is cause glee said it was cool for them to do so. I can't believe no one knows this!

Stupid people, stupid people everywhere.

And I bet she thinks that one direction, bieber and all those other 'musicians' are better than the Beatles and The Rolling Stones and all those other bands.
monnanon 14

You should introduce your friend to Wayne's World! One of the best movies ever!!!
sikunt89_fml 16
Such a great movie... Even number 2 is great. Party time! Excellent!!
Ameel_fml 19
Wayne's World obviously stole Bohemian Rhapsody from Glee too. Didn't you know?
