Today, at work, one of my 6 year-old students, who has had intense speech therapy since kindergarten, told me, "I can tell you're hot, because you rolled your sleeves up." I was very pleased with his articulate sentence, until he said, "Your arms are hairy." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the gym and worked out with a trainer. While doing arm exercises he commented on how impressed he was with the size of my triceps. That really boosted my self-confidence, until he leaned in to feel them and said, "Oh, it's just fat." FML
Today, I told my boss I was bored of being a cashier and would rather go to food prep. He told me I couldn't because my arms were too hairy. I'm a sixteen year old girl. FML
Today, one of my dad's work friends came over. As he was leaving, he complimented my dad on having three "strapping young boys." I informed him that I'm a girl, and I have a hormone imbalance that causes me to have a lot of hair and a deep voice. I guess my dress didn't give him a clue. FML
Today, at the camp that I work at, a little girl asked to "feel" my muscles. Thinking it was cute, I flexed for her. She laughed and said, "No, really." FML
Today, at work, a little boy shyly told his mom he thought I was cute. I smiled at him as she looked me up and down and said to him, "Eww, honey. No, you do not!" FML
Today, while babysitting, I gave the boy a pen and paper because he wanted to draw me. When he was done, he let me see, but then said, "Wait! I'm not done." He took it back and basically colored in the arms. I said, "I'm not wearing long-sleeves." He said, "That's hair." FML
Today, my biology teacher asked the class a question, so I raised my hand and after I gave my answer, my teacher said, "You know, you have a voice for radio. It's very deep." I replied with "Do I? Thanks!" He added, "You also have the face for radio." The whole class laughed. FML
Today, I was giving a talk in class, when halfway through someone pointed out that my pubes were sticking out my trousers. FML
Today, while at work, a man grabbed my beard, said it was impressive, and then uttered the words, "I love you." FML
Today, I was called by the counselor to discuss my "issues". She told me that other students had reported to her that they saw scars on my arms. I don't cut, I just have a hormonal and aggressive parrot who sees me as his personal tree. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It's arm hair, come on. People need to stop overlooking the fact that they're mammals.

You ought to go commando to school one day, corner the little creep, hike up your skirt and say, "Now, THIS is hairy. . . " He won't need any more speech therapy because he'll never speak again.

The only FML here is that you were pleased a 6-year-old said you were hot and upset that a 6-year-old said your arms are hairy. Not that he said those things but that you actually care what a 6-year-old thinks about you.

I don't think the 6 year old meant hot in terms of appearance, I think they were making the observation that OP was probably too hot and they'd rolled their sleeves up to cool down. The reason OP was happy about that, was because the kid had been going through speech therapy, and that had been quite a big sentence. The reason OP would care that the kid pointed out that their arms were hairy, is probably because kids tend to say things without inhibition, and that would mean it's definitely true. So they weren't just caring what that particular child thought of them, they were probably worried about what everyone else in the world must have been thinking, since I guess they'd never though of their arms as hairy until then... I just got stupider and stupider the more I said, didn't I? :P

1.) He is six, six year olds have a rep for being blunt, stupid, or both, because they are six. 2.) Hairy arms are an easy fix, simply shave along with your legs.

What kind of teacher puts a comma before the word because?

YDI. Why? You didn't shave. How gross, no offense.

I can see why it would upset you. All that intense speech therapy and he used your instead of you're.

He's a 6 year old. Get over it OP! You sound like a whiny person who always finds things to complain about.
