Today, while at a party, Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" started playing. For being the only one who didn't know the lyrics, I had beer thrown on me, my shirt stolen, and I was locked outside for half an hour. It's below freezing. FML

Today, at a party, I tried to play it cool by pretending to know all the lyrics to a song, but ended up singing the wrong words and embarrassing myself. FML
Today, I was at a friend's birthday party in a packed karaoke bar/restaurant and I drunkenly agreed to sing. I picked a song I thought I knew by heart, only to realize halfway through that the lyrics on the screen were not at all what I thought they were. My brain went for a smoke break or something, and I turned into a rambling mess. The crowd actually booed. FML
Today, I got wasted at a party and went out to my car to get something. I went back to the house and realized I got locked out. After knocking on the door, ringing the doorbell, and shouting "LET ME INNNN" my friend called and asked where I was. That's when I realized I was at the wrong house. FML
Today, I got mugged on the way to my 21st birthday party at a bar. I begged the thug to at least throw me my ID, only to have him laugh and run away singing, "Happy Birthday." FML
Today, I went to a party with a friend. All I remember is passing out on the couch. About 10 minutes ago, I was woken up by a bucket of cold water and thrown out by the guy who lives there. I'm still dripping and very cold, and I have no idea where the hell I am. FML
Today, I got drunk until morning at a college friend's apartment with bunch of strangers. Some officials came in due to the noise and I tried to scare them away by pretending to sing a latin song of worship I made up, thinking they'd respect the gathering if it was a religious one. FML
Today, I was woken up and kicked out of my friend's party at 3:00 in the morning. This wouldn't have been so bad if someone hadn't stolen my shoes. I had to walk for an hour in the rain, in my socks. FML
Today, I had drinks at a friend's house before going out to a concert. I still had a bottle of beer left, so I brought it along with me. I got kicked out five minutes into the show for bringing my own drink, which is apparently against the rules. I paid $75 to get kicked out over a $3 drink. FML
Today, I went to a party. Although I wasn't drinking, I was still afraid the cops would bust me. Halfway through the party, the cops showed up. I tried to hop a fence, ripping my pants and cutting my leg in the meantime. It wasn't until was on the ground that I found out there was a gate. FML
Today, ever supportive of my friends, I went to a concert and tried to really get into the music. I was jumping and dancing, only to realize I was at the wrong concert. My friend's band was playing next door. I spent half an hour dancing with strangers to music I didn't even really like. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

so you are at a party, how exactly did they figure out that you didn't know the lyrics? did they demand that you recite it with them? kinda bullshit at a party to do that. I'm not a music buff but I know a few verses.

While I've never met anyone who didn't know the lyrics to Don't Stop Believin', I don't think you deserved to have all that happen to you, and I don't understand why everyone else is reacting so strongly to this.

I think a lot of people never heard of that song until they watched Glee. That annoys me.

That's really not fair. I don't understand why the OP got so many YDI just because he didn't know the song. Heck, I've never even heard of this band before I read the FML. Why is everybody so crazy over a stupid song? It's just a matter of taste. So someone don't like the same thing as you do. It doesn't give you the rights to abuse them. These people really need to chill out.

How the HECK did this get twice as many YDIs? Not knowing the lyrics to a song does NOT merit an attack like that, and you DO NOT hurt other people if you have a soul. That is TERRIBLE. I actually like and know all the words to Don't Stop Believin', but I thoroughly disagree with those partygoers. That is cold and cruel.

Completely agreed, GrapefruitZoe. I have no idea what that song is, myself. I don't deserve to be attacked for it.

I'm a working American adult, and I don't know all the lyrics, because it was written *years before I was born*. I don't know they lyrics to Monkees songs, either. Nobody deserves to be left outside without their clothes in below-freezing weather over a song!
