Today, after expressing some of my reservations about the amount of work I have to do to accomplish my thesis on time, my graduate advisor compared my search for knowledge to Tom Hanks's odyssey in the movie "Castaway". FML

Today, I asked my professor for his opinion on the subject I plan to study in my thesis. Turns out, he likes it so much that he's going to steal it from me. FML

Cultural imperialism
Today, my new boyfriend said I’m only allowed three male friends, and their names are, “the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.” When I told him he was quoting Will Ferrell, I realized he was born in Croatia and doesn’t know who that is. FML

Dude, STFU!
Today, at the cinema, I sat next to a guy who couldn’t stand a minute without laughing or making comments about the film. FML

Today, my dad watched his first Lord of the Rings marathon. Now he keeps spouting lines from the movies, and thought it'd be funny to hide in my closet, just to jump out at me screaming, "My precious!" FML

Today, my boyfriend suggested that we become "drug dealers" because I'm a chemistry student and he's seen a few episodes of Breaking Bad. FML

Today, I finally got the courage to make a move on the guy I've been crushing on. I asked him if he would like to go see a movie with me. He answered, "Sorry, I've already seen it." I didn't even mention any particular movie. FML

It's amazing how many FMLs here could easily be avoided if their OPs just had a sense of humour.

What this FML is really about is prejudice. OP you made an assumption about what you thought a PhD candidate should be like. The reality is that, like most educated people, he probably has a mix of low-brow and high-brow interests. The question is "Do you love him for who he actually is -- despite his taste in movies-- or, for how you wanted him to be?"

How could that be a bad thing it just goes to show that if you don't find that awesome you may not want to be with him!

How is this a fml? He is still a guy, it doesn't matter how many degrees he has, he can still like stupid humor.

Spend 30 minutes online, find the movies, and become the best girlfriend ever. How could this possibly be an FML? It isn't even a bad thing.

So what? My rocket scientist friend loves South Park. Just because you hold a certain title doesn't mean you're expected to change your sense of humor. The real FML here is FHisLife for dating something so ridiculous as you. (Then again, he does have a thing for dumb humor so it only makes sense.)

Your "guy"? Is this your boyfriend you're talking about, or your drug dealer? And if you just said "guy" because you two are dating, but not really serious yet, then this REALLY isn't an FML.
