The revenge of the nerds
Today, I met up with an old high school friend who I used to make fun of because he put so much effort into his studies. Turns out he makes my annual salary in a month. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my friend makes more money than I do. She's a high school dropout and working at a retail job at the mall. I went to college for four years to get my job. FML
Today, my former high school bully became my manager. FML
Today, I ran into an old friend from college on the bus to work. Having not seen each other in over 10 years, we spent a good 15 minutes talking about our lives after college. At the end, he asked me what my name was. FML
Today, we had a school reunion. The guy who bullied me throughout my high school career is now rich and married. I'm broke and single, and he specifically came up to me to point it out. FML
Today, I ran into an old friend, and she remarked how she couldn't believe we hadn't seen each other in a year. Except not only did I attend her baby shower a few weeks ago, I spent hundreds of dollars on a unique gift. FML
Today, I finally reunited with a lot of old friends from school. It was great to see everyone grown up and hear the stories. At the end we decided to have a group photo for old times sake. They asked me to take the picture. FML
Today, I began my job as an intern at a high school. I saw one of the students looked very familiar, and I couldn't remember from where. Then I figured it out, I had hooked up with him at a club last week. He's a junior in high school, I'm in my last year of college. FML
Today, I was at the store when I ran into an old friend from high school. He didn't recognize me at first, but when I told him who I was, he instantly shouted "Oh! Yeah! The fat chick from Mr. H's class!" FML
Today, I was meeting my husband's old friends at his 20 year high school reunion. He introduced me as his 'friend from work' to his ex girlfriend. FML
Today, I had a meeting with the CEO about a promising job with good pay and benefits. Upon meeting, we immediately recognized each other. He was someone I used to make fun of in school all the time. He responded by refusing to interview me and had security throw me out by force. Karma bites. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You ever hear of "Don't make fun of nerds cause they'll be your boss one day"? Seems like it's true.

THe 'nerds' are the people who invent things that 'normal' people take for granted in there life. eg Mobile phone, Computer etc Gotta love people that can study hard and earn there money on the fair way. nerd or not.

Define a boring nerd set for an empty existence. ..It's not me who wants to know. It's for a friend.

Heh, a lack of friends and personality doesn't lead to an empty existence. It leads to an un-social existence.

it depends on what you put stock into. for you, a social life is important. for a unsocial nerd, he might put stock in his work not friends.

it's their life, not there.

That may be what you prioritize as a meaningful life - but there are very few nerds who actually lead an "empty existence" (of course, there are the assholes in every social group, but I digress). They're just filled with such awe for what they're studying that they are bursting at the seams, it's so cute : ) I love nerding out with people and listening to others nerd out (even if I don't understand what they're saying)! You may think they're no good at socializing, but that's just because you can't communicate with them. Being a nerd myself - I feel that people who don't invest any real time into learning and only socialize are living the empty lives. They tend to have superficial conversations and have transient friendships. But again.. it's all perspective.

Hmmm, then have you made fun of any fat/short/ugly guy before? The moral of the story is that one of them could be screwing your girlfriend right now.

I hired the "nerds" to help me with my homework in high school, and in college. You should definitely be nice to them, they are much cooler than people give them credit for. Without them, I would have never made it into, or through my degree program!
