Today, my art teacher showed off a painting of his name he got in Japan. I can read Japanese, and it actually says "Old idiot". I really don't want to break it to him. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out that the nickname my friend has been calling me in Japanese for the past year is the word for "Idiot". FML
Today, I brought my best painting yet to college. I showed it off and everyone loved it. Or almost everyone. When we came back from lunch break, we found someone had sharpied the words "JIZZ BUTT" all over it. That painting took two weeks to finish. FML
Today, my grandpa saw one of the paintings in the guest room at my house. "What the fuck?" he snorted, then said whoever painted it should "stick to their damn day job". I painted it. FML
Today, I had to make a poster for social studies. I decided to write "Nice ass" in hieroglyphics. Turns out my teacher can read hieroglyphics. FML
Today, in algebra, I took out my notebook. My Chinese teacher was so impressed with my "Chinese" writings on the cover that I'm now her "favorite student". Those "Chinese" symbols are actually Japanese, but I wanted someone to like me so badly that I didn't correct her. FML
Today, I finished a big art project. It was a self-portrait done in acrylics. Proud of my piece, I showed my mom. After some thought her first comment was, "well, I'm either going to insult your art or your face." FML
Today, I found out my teacher writes descriptions next to people's names on the register to remind him who people were. By mistake the descriptions appeared on the computer projector. Next to my name it said "Tubby". FML
Today, my toddler proudly presented me a "beautiful drawing" he'd made... on my freshly painted living room wall. When I started to scold him, he said, "But I made it for YOU, Mommy!" Now I feel guilty for being mad at Picasso Jr, and having to paint over it. FML
Today, one of my paintings was accepted into a local art gallery. It would've been a dream come true, had my "best friend" not submitted it under her own name and taken all the credit. FML
Today, in art class, everybody was showing the paintings that we have been working on for weeks. Everyone was cheering and clapping. When mine came up, nobody clapped. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

that's really messed up but I don't think I'd have it in me to break it to him either.

can you not writr him a note or something leaving it on his desk telling him? maybe write it on a computer so he does not regonise you handwriting. then you have told him but you wont feel awkward xx

I'd tell him it looks cool, then proceed to convince him to get a tattoo of it.

It's always good to make sure they know what's on it most of the time it's true but it looks like this artist wanted to make a quick buck...if it bothers you that much you could mention it or just let him believe what it says is true..

I'd break it to him as soon as class ends because well eventually he'll figure it out

Did it look something like this "古いばか"

Yeah, I think that's what it would be.

He got trolled in Japan xD You should tell him in private so that in the future he avoids severe future embarrassment.

And that is exactly why people who get tattoos in languages that they can't read are morons.

So it says 古いばか? "furui baka": literally, "old fool"

Everyone's name means something in a different language. My mother isn't very happy with her own name because it's the female version of "farmer", and she thinks it carries the stereotype that farmer's wives are very plain-looking.
