Today, my school had to make an official announcement that students were not permitted to go home due to Zayn Malik leaving One Direction because so many girls were claiming they couldn't focus on school with such a dramatic event occurring. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, three of my dipshit coworkers kept whining all day about Zayn Malik leaving One Direction, how devastating it is, and what it means for their future. As a pacifist, I've never had to struggle so hard to not beat the piss out of people and hurl their broken remains out a window. FML
Today, my school caught a kid with a firearm, so during our lunch period we had to stay in our classrooms and nobody can leave and nobody can get food. FML
Today, at school I was sitting with a friend outside, talking about irregular periods and unshaven legs. Ten minutes into the conversation, a teacher sticks her head out the window above us and tells us to leave. We were distracting a classroom who were trying to finish a test. FML
Today, I had to suspend a student. Apparently, someone convinced him that he turned invisible. He walked into the girls locker room thinking he could not be seen. I work at a high school. FML
Today, it was my high school graduation. Everything was going fine until everyone saw my family fighting over where we would go afterwards. Security had to pull them apart. FML
Today, I was told that school was cancelled for the rest of the year. School is/was my one place of escape, and the only distraction in my life. It's now not going to be an escape until September. FML
Today, I attended my graduation ceremony. My parents acted mysteriously and kept urging me to go home, since we had to be "on time" for something. Thinking they might have planned a surprise party, I left my friends behind. I missed my graduation because my mom wanted to watch a TV show. FML
Today, I heard a rumor about myself going around my high school that I am pregnant, I've dropped out of school, and that my belly is showing. I'm not actually pregnant. I've been severely depressed, so I've missed a few days of school and I've been eating too much apparently. FML
Today, it's my first day of high school. It's also my first day of a three-day in-school suspension. The reason? I sat next to a girl and she immediately got up and told the teacher that she didn't "feel safe". FML
Today, I was doing my job and trying to teach a lazy bunch of 16-year-olds. A girl entered the room just 15 minutes before class ended, so I snapped, "Someone had better have died for you to be this late!" She immediately burst into tears. Turns out, someone had. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Come on, I understand you might not like One Direction, but they're a big part of many people's lives. The least you can do is respect them, just like you should respect every artist. They all work so hard and they don't deserve the hate they're getting. Just let all of them be sad. What would you do if a member of your favorite band left all of the sudden? When you didn't even get a decent explanation why they left? Them being sad doesn't hurt you in anyway, so just let them be.

girls are harming themselves because of this. this is not okay. they need help
Cass_x 22
I never said harming yourself is okay. I've been through that. It's a serious thing. But if they're just crying etc? Let them express their feelings. If they hold it all inside, it's gonna destroy them sooner or later.

Okay, we just did this yesterday with a similar FML. Whatever these girls think, this isn't a crying matter. If something like this has the power to completely ruin your day, and make life feel like it isn't worth living, then it's time to reevaluate your priorities.

People have to earn respect, they are not entitled to it, even as artists. What would I do if a member of my favourite band was living? This is what ==> "Well damn, that's shit, I hope they can carry one making great music" and then I move on with my life. It is actually scary that some people feel involved with celebrities they have no personal relationship with.

cass x - i dont HAVE to respect an artist that i dont like, i dont have to like or respect an artist just because they are famous, being famous and choosing to be in the public eye means you CHOOSE to open yourself up to tons of critism, dont like it dont be a singer. for example: (im NOT talking about one direction in this next example, this applys mainly to rappers:)i have zero respect for a singer who uses a lot of auto tune and cant actually sing, yet we have alot of really famous people who do it. should i have respect fot their hard work anyways? only if its my choice, and i choose no. and if someone left one on my favorite groups, i might be dissappointed but i wouldnt ****** CRY over it that is obviously plain stupid. i mean, they didnt even die, thats more of a reason to cry if any.

This whole scenario is pathetic. Why are people hating on him for making some decision? It was his choice and no matter what none of his fans have any say in the matter. Get over it. It's not like their music is gonna disappear all of a sudden just because one of them left. Stop bellyaching and move in with your lives

Sure, let's just close schools and declare a national emergency. People have been calling suicide hotlines and wasting those organizations' valuable time with bullshit about a band. That's unacceptable and needs to be addressed

Um, I'm not in school anymore, so no.

The thing I can't understand is: Why would you cry over this breakup? You (probably) never met this guy in real life, nor were you his personal friend. He's just one random human who came to a desicion. You know, billion people do billion desicions every day!.... Oh my god did you hear this? Some guy in China decidet to leave his sports team in just this moment you're reading this!!! Quick better cry over it!

@brand125,I like how you just made a generalization about rappers as if most of them use auto tune and can't sing. I understand your premise of not respecting what you feel is not real music and also to not cry over something so trivial but you should do more research before you make false statements to make an argument.

Because those person mean way too much to them maybe because their music save their lives and sincerely I think that if they are said about Zayn leaving let them be because if they really mean that much to them it feels like a really close loves one died and it would feel the same as if the band broke or dies and sincere apologies to the directioners for Zayn leaving

That doesn't mean they need to go home from school! People in other ransoms have stayed at school after much more serious and tragic things happened to their favourite bands. When Korean pop group Ladies Code got in to a horrific car accident and two of the members died, schools in Korea (or anywhere else) didn't have to ban kids from going home

I get the band meant something to people, but c'mon he didn't die! He left the band, big whoop. My favorite band has had numerous members leave and I didn't take it over the top, I'm still a fan of them. If he died then fine, but this is just...stupid.
ToxicTyrael 26
And even if he did die! Why should you care? You didn't knew him. People are dying all over the planet. While you are reading this at least 3 people died somewhere in your country. It would be resonable to cry over the death of many people at once or about a personal loss but not about some stranger who sings or does sports or something.

Random people dying is still different. Even if they haven't met the band, they are in news, they make videos, ect. They still know them better than a random person. I agree, breaking up this is ridiculous but if one died I don't see why people can't get upset or cry. A lot of people are still upset over an artists death that happened years ago

Why people don't understand that that isn't a valid reason to leave school is beyond me
