Today, I was supposed to take a test, but the professor didn't have it ready because he went to a concert last night. I sold my own tickets to that very concert in order to study for the test. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I went in to take my College Placement tests. I'd spent all week ignoring actual homework to study for these tests. When I got there, the responsible told me that the tests were last week. FML
Today, we had a surprise test at school. I was totally unprepared for any of it, so I BSd the whole thing and turned it in. A few minutes later, our teacher said we were allowed to use our notes to finish the test. FML
Today, four hours before a test, I received an email from my professor saying that the test had been canceled. When I checked my email again before bed, I found another email from my professor saying that his email had been hacked and the test was was still on. FML
Today, I had a maths test and I realised that I'd studied the wrong topics. The teacher said the test would be difficult and I stayed up till 1 a.m. just to be prepared. FML
Today, I took a major test, worth half my grade, not realizing that there were questions on the back of the sheet. FML
Today, I remembered that the concert I bought tickets for over a month in advance was yesterday. FML
Today, I was telling my co-workers about how I'd gotten tickets to a concert in a few days. My boss overheard. Later, he told me I now have to work on the night of the concert. However, he was kind enough to offer to buy the tickets off me for half of what I'd paid for them. FML
Today, I had a very hard and long exam and I was completely prepared for it. I was so confident in my abilities and I'd studied really hard. When I entered the exam hall and took the paper, I realized that I had forgotten to bring my calculator. FML
Today, after having spent all of last night studying for an algebra test, I find out that the test was on a completely different chapter of my textbook. FML
Today, I studied all night for a big test. I ended up falling asleep on the bus ride there. I woke up in a different province. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A very similar thing happened to me a few years ago. I had tickets to see Muse at Wembley on the Saturday and Sunday, but couldn't go because I had a GCSE drama exam on the Monday afterwards. :( I did see them at the Eden Project the year before, though! :D

May not have necessarily been a last minute study issue, but the OP thought they might end up being out too late, losing sleep, and wouldn't be prepared...like their professor.

I thought the same thing except that OP specifically said "in order to study"... It's just a concert though. Kind of a bummer that you missed it, but you'll live.

Yeah that's why I was thinking not necessarily, probably a combo of both. Because lol it sort of happened to me back in 10th or 11th grade, I went to a concert that was on a Sunday night and skipped school the next day and my teacher chewed me out over it. I was "required" to go in for tutoring and the ****** was never there....and incidentally brought up going to a concert once.

YDI for lying in your username, b/c if you really were a good student, just one night wouldn't have made a difference. YDI for selling your tickets. YDI for ever having tickets in the first place. YDI for being a student. YDI for desiring musical entertainment.

How can he do that? It's not their fault for exsisting. Sheesh! Get with the program. :P
FFML_314 12
I disagree. Once you've exsisted, there's really no way to not exsist. There will always be a part of you here, even if you're dead. So, the only way to not exsist is to have never exsisted in the first place. :P

YDI for having ears. YDI for not guaranteeing yourself an A by FORNICATING. Oh, and FFML, exist*. Tsk tsk. ;)

I think the real fml here is that you have the same taste in music as your professor. sure there's a chance that he's a cool professor with an awesome music sense, but I think it's a bit more likely that you like shitty old people music
TheIrishJaneDoe 9
Why is it unbelieveable that a college professor, who spends his time around college-aged students, would listen to "their" music?

What is your definition of "shitty old people music"? There are plenty of artists that, depending on the professor's age, could have been around when he was young that are still playing, and that many young people like. Examples: The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Iggy Pop, Tom Petty, and so on... I've seen all of them except for Petty, (and arguably Ringo, since I was only a toddler when my parents took me to one of his concerts) and they're all still great.
