Today, I was taking the metro into DC for my internship. Two guys came in and started talking to each other in Arabic. One boy turned to the other said "Do you think shes cute?" The other responded "Her face is hideous but she has nice tits." I am fluent in Arabic. They were looking at me. FML

Today, my sister and I saw a guy with a terrible nose job coming up the bus. She said to me, "Look how ugly that guy is" in our native tongue. The man sat down right in front of us, took his phone out, and started talking our language. FML

Today, I was asked to translate for a family in Arabic since I’m the only one in my office who speaks Arabic. Turns out the family is actually from Bangladesh. They speak Bengali. When I explained this to my coworker he replied, “But aren’t y’all Middle Easterns related or something?” FML

Today, I was walking by a bunch of pretty girls. I'm not the most attractive boy, so I walked by nervously. I heard one yell, "Hey cutie!" I turned to look, and they started laughing. She said, "Oh my god, sorry! I assumed you were cute from your butt!" Apparently, my ass is nicer than my face. FML

Today, I finished the rather expensive Arabic language course I have been taking for about 6 months. I still can't hold a conversation, but I can now say, "May Allah give you a headache and you are stuck in Beirut's traffic for two hours." FML

Today, I was taking the subway to work when I saw a really hot girl. Noticing that she, like me, had a Dunkin' Donuts coffee, I tried to start a conversation by saying, "Is that Double Ds you have there?" She didn't pick up that I was talking about the coffee. FML

Speaking in Welsh can cause this too

Today, I was harassed repeatedly by other passengers during my flight for speaking Arabic and sounding aggressive. I was in no way being aggressive, and I had to speak Arabic because it's the only language my mother-in-law speaks. Such a fuss was made, I did end up being questioned by TSA. FML

Today, I went to work to find two new beautiful trainees. I thought maybe I might be able to hook up with one of them, so I walk up and flash my blue eyes and begin to act like a gentleman. Not five minutes into our conversation the girls ask me if there are any cute guys working here. FML

Today, I was talking to a smokin' hot Cuban sorority girl. She told me her mom only speaks Spanish, so she translates for her. Without thinking I said, "Oh like Chewbacca and Han Solo?" FML

#96 is right, but it would have been more effective if you had just played the "scared white girl" routine "Officer, I think there are *terrorists* on the bus!"

THE ONLY REASON I'M SAYING THIS IS BECAUSE ALMOST ALL OF YOU WERE THINKING IT, AND NOBODY HAD THE BALLS TO SAY IT: Next time it happens say in Arabic "hey needled*ck, do me a favor- stop disrespecting women, stop dressing in rags, and stop having your buddies tryin to bomb us all the time... and MAYBE i'd go out with you! You know, you remind me of an a**hole- cuz you're hairy, and you smell like sh*t! ...Oh, and there's still a long strand of toilet paper stuck around your hair. Lemme get that for you." *rip* f*ckin arabs, comin over here thinkin they have a right to bomb twin towers and then go talk about our women. p*ssy a** b*tches cant even fight normally or talk straight up to ppl, they gotta hide behind their p*ssy language barrier and "political correctness" so nobody can say anything about em. well F that I love how they talk about our women over here's faces and t*ts... considering their faces usually look like autistic, half-starved, sand-cut-up gorillas, and they wouldn't ever get no t*ts in their lifetime except the pre-packaged muslim brides they stay burnin' and beatin' twenty-fo seven Man, ever wonder what the similarity was between saddam hussein and the flintstones? They both live like monkeys, and they can both look outside and see nothin but rubble! How do Muslims practice "safe sex"? They mark the camels that kick! ahahah

Yekhrib beit-hom! Maybe they will read this FML and think twice about talking about people in a different language. Napalm, God will take care of you.
