Today, I wore what I thought was a hideous sweater from the thrift store for an ugly sweater contest. I've gotten more compliments on it than anything else I've ever worn. I can't even succeed at failure. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my wife entered in an ugliest sweater competition at her work. She wore a plain white sweater with a picture of my face printed on it. She came home with first prize. FML
Today, we had our annual office Christmas party. The theme of the party was "Ugliest Sweater". The winner was a sweater that I have an exact replica of in my closet. It's my favorite 'special occasion', 'family portrait' and 'holiday' sweater. FML
Today, my daughter wore my favorite Christmas sweater to an ugly sweater party. FML
Today, my friends and I were going to do an ugly sweater photo shoot. When we met up, one of them was wearing a sweater I gave on her birthday. FML
Today, I tried on a sweater in a store. It was a bit tight, but I managed to get it on. When I tried to take it off, it got stuck halfway. After several failed attempts, a sales associate had to help me out of it, while other customers watched. FML
Today, I put on what I thought was my "lucky" sweater for a job interview. Halfway there, I noticed my reflection in a car window and realized it was covered in cat hairs of various colors and a faded spaghetti stain from last week that apparently hadn't come out in the wash. FML
Today, my biology teacher told me that every Friday we should wear a hideous shirt to count down the last days of freshman year. So when Friday came around we decided to have a contest for most hideous shirt. I won. I forgot to wear a hideous shirt. FML
Today, it was wacky tacky day at my school. I did not participate, however, I did get voted the tackiest outfit in my school. FML
Today, I attempted to compliment a stranger’s sweater by saying, "Wow, that looks cozy!" However, I said it way louder than intended, and they thought I was mocking them. I’ve never seen someone put on a jacket so fast. FML
Today, I was happy because my exact shirt and sweater were in Seventeen Magazine. They were in the "What not to wear" category. FML

The best time to wear a stripped sweater is all the time...

Maybe they were complimenting on the ugliness?

Well, this is my first published FML and the comments were fun to read this morning. The sweater was a long black sweater with a high collar, shoulder pads(!!), and ugly copper beads all over it. Yes, it IS flashier than what I normally wear. I am a receptionist so I wear professional clothes that are noticeably devoid of beads and/or sequins. Unfortunately (or fortunately), it will not become part of my wardrobe. I threw it away as soon as I got home. The neck was so small that I could barely squeeze my head through and I had cut the back of it in order to not feel strangled all day long. It was my first venture into the contest so I think I will just skip it from now on. I still stand my my personal opinion that the sweater was ugly though,

you think that's bad, the one I picked had semen stains on the front.
