Today, my friend and I were discussing music bands, and I asked who her favorite Queen member is. She looked at me like I was from another world and said, "I don't have a favorite British queen. That's like, so weird." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I had to explain to a friend that the show writers for Glee did not write "Bohemian Rhapsody" and that Freddie Mercury did not steal the song from them. We're both 17 years old, and she reacted by kicking a chair at me. FML
Today, I realised I like Britney Spears. FML
Today, I saw a girl wearing a Nirvana shirt. Since Nirvana has been my favorite band for a long time, I tried striking up a conversation with her. Turns out she doesn't even listen to them, and only bought the shirt because she "liked the smiley face." FML
Today, my mom mentioned how she loves a certain actor's "British" accent. I couldn't help but mention that there's no such thing, and that there are lots of different accents in Britain. She got pissed and lectured me for "lying" to her and trying to make her feel stupid. FML
Today, my dad forbade me from playing or listening to Queen because Freddie Mercury was gay. FML
Today, I had a conversation about how Victoria Beckham ate fruit salad for her birthday, as if it was an important subject. FML
Today, I went to Britney's concert. About halfway through the show, the person next to me turns to me and asks, "Can you do me a favour?" Thinking that she wanted me to look after her stuff, I said sure. Her next sentence was: "Can you stop singing?" FML
Today, I had to explain to my housemate that the cast of "The Crown" is not the real Royal Family impersonating themselves. FML
Today, my date and I were getting to know each other, and we talked about our favorite music. He's into metal. Trying to impress him, I mention I like metal too. He said his favorite band is “The Gonzorks” and I mentioned that's my favorite too. He looked at me dead and cold and said “Um, actually that band doesn't exist.” FML
Today, a lady told me I looked like Paul McCartney in his youth. With that little confidence boost, I told my girlfriend. I'm not sure what's worse, the fact that she didn't know who Paul McCartney is, or how she is now obsessively Googling pictures of him and is practically drooling. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Nice username, I feel the same way. And Freddie Mercury had an awesome voice.

I hope you started singing some of their songs and when she says, "ohhhh yeah I have heard of those" tell her the British Queen's band did those... I love how people don't think about maybe just saying, "well I don't recognize the name--can you give me some of their songs so I can see if I recognize them?!". Could have been an opportunity for her to learn something...

Bit of a rubbish question though. Its obviously Freddie Mercury.

Your friend does not have a good taste in music.

I think it is adorable that children are showing off how cool they are because they listen to Queen. When I was a kid (late 80's/early 90's) when Queen were still actually around (in full) none of my friends new who they were and I was a geek for liking them. There was literally me, my brother and his friend lesley that listened to them in our whole school. How times have changed.

Seriously, queen is amazing and it is saddening that a lot of us kids (not saying you are) don't pay attention to the GOOD music.
