Today, I went to the library to pick up Romeo and Juliet, for my English class. After looking around for half an hour, I asked the librarian. "I couldn't find Shakespeare anywhere. Where could I find him?" She quickly replied "He's dead", giggled to herself, and went back to her work. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

I don't think she meant it to be hilarious, more like, she thought he was an idiot and laughed at him.

@OP: Next time, specify that you're looking for the Shakespearian play "Romeo & Juliet", rather than saying you're looking for Shakespeare.

20- considering libraries are usually sorted by author, it is completely legit to say I'm looking for Shakespeare. Im pretty sure the librarian was joking.
this is so not an fml.

so the fml is that you are fat and the girl who made the joke is hot and skinny? yeah I would hate myself too.

This is an FML.... why? I see literally no problem here. OP said something stupid, librarian commented on it with witty humor, then did the right thing and ignored the ignorant. Big whoop.

How is that a stupid question. Hey I'm looking for Shakespeare in a
bookstore. WTF could that mean.....Hey I'm a dumb blonde lets figure it out. Btw if
she was being witty and not serious she would have helped op instead of walking away feeling smart.

Or she has a sense of humor and OP can't take a joke and has to run tell the internet.

16. Awesome. just what I was thinking. Op can't take a (kinda funny) joke.

Sun_Kissed18 | 25

#1607185 - Tuesday 26 October 2010 21:33

Meh, not that funny. Plus even if she did intend it as a joke, why would she go back to work and completely ignore the OP?

#1606295 - Tuesday 26 October 2010 16:19

Haha! You have a pretty funny librarian. She's probably just sick of people who don't know how to use the catalog system.

MissErikaHart | 0

#1606591 - Tuesday 26 October 2010 17:52

I'm sure that's partly the reason the library has people working there

morella_xx | 29

#1607090 - Tuesday 26 October 2010 21:01

At any rate, OP was wandering around in the library for half an hour doing God knows what. Hoping "Shakespeare" would magically appear where it once said "DE 300 - DE 500" or something.

[and yes, I know that's not the British literature section where R&J would be]

morella_xx | 29

#1607118 - Tuesday 26 October 2010 21:12

I don't know where the first half of my comment went? But in short, if the OP knows how to post on here, she knows how to search the catalog. It's not hard; she was just being lazy.
