Today, I wore a tank top for the first time in a few years. It turned out even worse than the last time. I got insulted by several people over my "Never say never" upper chest tattoo, which I got years ago, before the words ever became associated with a certain douchy Canadian pop "singer". FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I took my hoodie off in public and my shirt accidentally lifted up with it. I've had bad skin problems since I was 12 or 13, and my chest looks horrific as a result. Everyone in my vicinity reacted with horror and called me all sorts of awful names. Nice to know that my appearance makes me that repulsive. FML
Today, I wore a sleeveless shirt for the first time in years, when I glimpsed something on my shoulder that looked like a spider. I let out a scream that sounded like a donkey having a stroke, and flailed my arms. Then I realized it was my tattoo, and that I was freaking out everyone on the bus. FML
Today, I was struggling through small-talk at a party where I knew nobody. Tattoos came up and I started talking about trendy, girly tattoos like feathers, anchors and infinity signs with stupid words in them. Turns out the girl I was talking to had all three. FML
Today, I took off my sweatshirt in the middle of class. The tanktop I was wearing underneath went with it. FML
Today, I got slut-shamed by a guy in a 7-Eleven for having a face tattoo. A.) It's a birthmark; B.) I'm 15 and look it; C.) This happens a lot, and D.) I was wearing a full body winter coat and all he could see was my face. FML
Today, I went out for lunch with a guy I hadn't seen in a couple of months. He seemed to be staring at my chest quite a bit, but I wasn't too bothered by it. Turns out there was still an XL sticker on my shirt. FML
Today, my brother saw my side when my shirt came up, and asked when I got a tattoo; the pink he saw was in fact my stretch marks. Worst of all, I had to show them to everyone to prove I didn't actually get a tattoo. FML
Today, after years of frustration, I got a t-shirt printed that says, "I am a girl". FML
Today, I tripped and fell, and didn’t realize my tank top strap broke. I walked around with my boob out for a solid 3 minutes in PUBLIC until my friend ran up behind me and yanked my tank top back up. He found it funny, and apparently everyone else got a great view. Talk about embarrassing. FML
Today, I woke up after a long night of drinking with my friends. I vaguely remembered visiting a tattoo parlour, but nothing prepared me for the sight of the words "YOLO" and "MOFO" tattooed across the fingers of my left and right hands. Now I'm officially a bandwagoning douchebag. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well, you can't blame them. Nobody likes a belieber. Can you get the tattoo removed or something?

As far as most Canadians are concerned, he isn't considered one of us anymore. Just a clarification. No one likes that little fucknugget.

Who cares what they think. It obviously means something to you, or at least it did when you got it. What you put on your body is your business, no one else's.

The trick is to look confused and say "What?". Then they have to say it is something to do with Justin Bieber (is it a song? A tattoo the little creep has? I have no idea because I don't pay him any attention). Then you laugh at them, and say "Oh, is it? I never listen to that sort of s***. Are you a big fan, or do you just listen at home?" The other idea is to add "Again" to the end and start talking in a Scottish accent with a speech impediment on each "s".

Justin Bieber is not a douche okay x_x

Drink driving, peeing in a bucket (which someone else would've had to clean up)? Sounds pretty douchey to me

Want to express yourself with a tattoo? Don't get upset when people express themselves vocally. YDI for expecting special treatment because you have a tattoo

Not having your appearance criticized by strangers as you walk down the street is not "special treatment"

And expecting nobody to comment on your choices is ignorant. People have a right to share their opinion whether it agrees with yours or not. If people don't want to be judged, they shouldn't present themselves in ways that would draw such attention.

Do you realize the OP may have made the FML because he was upset that people judged him in a dumb way and insulted him for something he never even did because of their own generalizing stupid assumptions? Would you be okay with it if someone assumed a bunch of crap about you and insulted you and blamed you for it?

So it's your belief that this tattoo didn't look completely idiotic before the beaver connection?

We are sorry... so sorry for unleashing the twat... I swear this is not how most Canadians are. Also, who cares what other dumb people think of your ink, be proud to wear it, those words have been said before this idiot used them in a song.

Just pretend you don't know who he is. "What a douche! Is that a Justin Bieber tattoo?!" "...who?"

I was going to press YDI until I read that you got the tattoo before that overly hyped wannabe ever had that song. You have my deepest remorse. Perhaps you should get a skull tattoo right above it to shake off the JB references.

Never say never. Unless you're Rick Astley. ;)

Maybe try to add other words below it or above it? "Ill Never say Never, I'll Never give up." Or just "Never say never, never give up"
