Today, I went to see a famous rapper perform. My girlfriend got us up to the front to get pictures with him. He went to give me a high-five, I thought it was a fist-bump, so I made a fist. So he made a fist while I made a palm to match his retracted high-five. Then I panicked, cupped his fist, and ran. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I saw my ex and his new girlfriend walking towards me. To make things less awkward, I tried to be cool and give him a high five. He misjudged and went for a fist bump. I ended up slapping his hand, and it felt like it lasted forever, all while she just smirked at me. FML
Today, I tried to give my friend a fist bump. He thought I was trying to punch him so he punched me in the face. FML
Today, a cute girl was walking towards me. She held up her hand for a high five, so I also did the same. I hadn't noticed her friend behind me, and was left hanging and embarrassed. FML
Today, I tried to high-five someone but somehow ended up slapping them in the face. FML
Today, in a nightclub packed with people, I enthusiastically went in for a handshake with someone but they went for a fist bump. We both ended up doing the awkward “Pull back and retry” dance for a solid five seconds. I think I just lost all credibility. FML
Today, I went to a local concert. The singer from my favorite band stage-dived and I got to catch him. Unfortunately I was the only one to catch him. The next thing I know I'm pinned between him and the concrete floor as he finishes whatever part of the song he was on. He was fine, I hit my head. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I loved him. He responded by fist pumping. FML
Today, I was walking down the hallway at work when I saw a coworker I hadn't talked to in a while. I went for a high-five as a friendly greeting, but she didn’t see me coming and instead awkwardly grabbed my hand like she was about to hold it. We both froze for a second, and then awkwardly sighed and practically ran away. FML
Today, I fistbumped a cashier as they tried to hand me my change. FML
Today, I was at a local restaurant. The girl that I like walked by so I tried to give her a high five. My hand ended up on her boob instead. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

OP should have just said 'Look, we made a turkey!' the hi5 hand being the tail feathers and the fist bump hand being the body.

66- not being a grammar nazi, but, tetras you're sentence. "Love YOU ARE picture." There's a difference between your and you're... -.-

Geurge 3
Maybe you should re-read YOUR sentence :)
Wizardroxx 3
I did it on purpose so he/she can realize the mistake that he/she made.
Kua_Mei 0
You purposely treated "you're" and "your" as though interchangeable in saying "you're sentence" in order to correct someone else's mistake? I'd think that would make it more confusing, but each to his/her own, I suppose. Oh, and one more thing: COMMA SPLICES. That is all.
Wizardroxx 3
Okay. I don't care if it confuses whoever I said it to. I'm sure he'll/she'll realize it without getting confused, lol. Oh well, it happened.

Wizardroxx 3
Yeah, of course... that's why I said that I wasn't trying to be a grammar nazi. -_-
deafeningsilence 8
Just stop trying.
Wizardroxx 3
I'll stop, because I'm not trying to be one. ;-[ Why do you care anyways? If I try or don't try. Just wondering.
