Slipping up
Today, I was teaching a class when a student pointed out that I'd used the wrong "your/you're" while writing on the board. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, the kids I teach informed me that I had spelled my name incorrectly on the board. I looked at it and assured them that I had spelled it correctly. I'm 22 and a graduate student, they're six and mentally challenged. Guess who was right? FML
Today, while grading my kindergarteners' spelling tests, one kid spelled all the words wrong, including his name. FML
Today, in the class I'm teaching, I assigned my students an essay to complete for homework. One student asked me if I was deducting points for bad spelling. I teach English. FML
Today, I accidentally called my teacher "Babe." FML
Today, it was the last day of school, and I said goodbye to one of my students. She then told me how to correctly pronounce her name. I'd said it wrong all year. FML
Today, one of my students corrected the problem I had solved on the board, explaining that you do multiplication before subtraction. I teach the second grade. FML
Today, I went to my first class of the semester. After an hour of intense note writing, I realized I was in the wrong class. FML
Today, while my teacher was in the middle of a lecture, I accidentally made it so my laptop would display everything upside down. It took me the rest of class to get it right side up again. FML
Today, I walked into the wrong classroom, sat down, took notes for ten minutes, and only realized my mistake when the professor asked me to introduce myself and explain why I was there. I wasn’t even enrolled in the class. FML
Today, I was teaching a ten year old how to play piano. Halfway through the lesson, she made a minor mistake, which, trying to be a good tutor, I corrected her. She smiled up at me, paused, then slammed the key cover down onto my fingers. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

you should tell them your trying to put mistakes in so they catch it and give them an extra credit point for each mistake (you get 1 point if u caught that)

this is stupid. everyone makes mistakes. my college english teacher spells words wrong sometimes, doesn't mean he's stupid just that by the time he's writing that word he's already thinking ahead. Sounds like the student was just a prick for not letting something simple like that slide.

Using the wrong "your" is becoming a worldwide pandemic. Studies from super smart people have shown the that using the wrong "your", "there", or "to" leads to stupid FML posts/comments, explosive diarrhea, and the irresistible urge to dance to songs by Miley Cyrus. Please help stop this disease! ~~~~~ On a serious note- EVERYONE makes mistakes, OP. I just hope your student isn't a stupid person who corrects everything. Get over it, tomorrow is a new day!
