Today, it was the premiere of a huge play I've worked on for months. The latest week we've practised a lot, resulting in little sleep. In one of the scenes I'm just lying there pretending to be asleep. Guess who actually fell asleep? FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to pretend to give birth in a play. I wanted to make it a realistic as possible but ended up crapping myself on stage by accident. FML
Today, I auditioned for a part in a play. I've been practicing for months, and was very excited. After I'd finished singing, the director whispered something to the other judges, and they all laughed. Hard. So much for the lead role. FML
Today, I was in a play and had a battle scene. I got a little too into it and wound up twisting my ankle. The audience was treated to me screaming like a little girl before face-planting the stage a moment later. FML
Today, I signed up for a theater production as they needed extras. I had exactly one line in the entire play. During opening night, I became so focused on remembering the line, I forgot to walk on stage when it was my cue. People stood there on stage waiting for my character, who was backstage, congratulating himself for not forgetting his line. FML
Today, I was sent the script to a play I'm participating in at school. After reading it a couple of times, I noticed that my part has been forgotten completely. FML
Today, it was opening night for the play where I was, for the first time ever, one of the leads. I went on stage with a loud and energetic entrance. I came in two scenes early. FML
Today, after spending hours of my time painting sets for the last two months - with less dedication than only the head painter herself, and to the point where my health and grades suffered - I finally got to see the play I worked so hard on. I was the only one they forgot to put in the playbill. FML
Today, I was rehearsing for a school play. My drama teacher keeps criticising the part where I fake-trip, saying I make it look terribly fake. During today's rehearsal, I actually tripped for real, and smashed my kneecaps against the floor with a scream. He still said my "acting" sucked. FML
Today, I had my first day in an acting class. Our assignment was to perform a dramatic monologue. I got super into it, threw myself into character, and dramatically fell to my knees to deliver a line. Unfortunately, my knees slipped, and I faceplanted into the floor in front of the entire class. FML
Today, I proudly presented my research project in class that I've worked for day and night for 3 weeks straight. My teacher fell asleep. FML

i already commented, but i have to ask this: how is this a "**** my life" anyway? sure, you worked hard on the play, but it would have been equally embarrassing if you just barely knew your lines. if you didn't ruin the show, or fall asleep *backstage* and miss a cue, then i repeat what i said before that your life is not ******, and it barely even sucks. somebody commented on an older fml that there should be a "who gives a shit?" button.

Falling asleep in the middle of the premier on stage isn't embarrassing enough to you? Of course this is an FML. OP probably DID miss a cue and ruin part of the show or else she wouldn't have posted this.

How dare you fall asleep during the show!? I've worked in theatre for almost 3 years as a technician and I'm there more than any actor and I've never fallen asleep during a show. You should be ashamed of yourself! It's even worse that you made it an FML. Jeez. Go jump right off of a cliff, people like you are easily replaced... even in the middle of show run.

What the ****? Why are like 97% of the comments buried?

A few idiots probably just hit the negative button on all of them, thus, burying them.
