Today, after weeks of sorting, inspecting, and waiting, my high school's yearbooks were distributed. I'd searched carefully for photo errors and was proud to say there were none. That is, until someone told me that a boy on the last page was flipping the camera the bird. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finally got my yearbook for senior year in high school. I started what everyone does, which is count how many times I appear in the yearbook. I stopped when I found a prominent photo of me, picking my nose in class. FML
Today, I received my year 12 yearbook. After such a bad year of let downs, it wasn’t surprising that the school fucked it up and put the previous year's group photo in it instead of ours. FML
Today, my son's yearbook came. I was pretty happy, as I'd also ordered a larger version of his photo because he's going to California for college and I wanted a special picture of him to keep. Unfortunately, my happiness disappeared when I saw that he was wearing a horse mask in the photo. FML
Today, I was looking through my high school yearbook. I found a picture of myself and a couple of my friends at our senior prom. The caption gave the names of all my friends, their dates who didn't attend our school, and listed me only as "Guest." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were looking through an old photo album of mine. I turned to a page with a picture of me on my last day of college. I thought the picture was quite nice. He turned to me and said, "Don't worry, I take bad pictures too." FML
Today, I got my yearbook. My sister and I are identical twins, and we realized only my sister had a picture in it. When we asked the head of yearbook, they said they thought it was the same girl trying to get two pictures, so they put in the prettier one. FML
Today, I went to my school to take my yearbook picture. I was wearing a shirt that said ANALOG on the front. When I bent in to take the picture, part of my shirt overlapped itself. Now I'm known as the ANAL kid in the yearbook. FML
Today, I got my graduation photos back. I'd sent them to a friend for touching up, but unfortunately we had a major argument recently. I guess that's why in the photos I've been photoshopped out and replaced with a goat. FML
Today, my school's yearbook awarded "Cutest Couple" to my boyfriend and me. We broke up yesterday. FML
Today, there was a story called "Looking Good" about fashion in school that ran in the local newspaper. On the front page of that section it featured a picture of my class. I was photoshopped out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think you might lose your job as editor.

1- It's usually part of a class a student takes to edit the yearbook. I'm doubtful they will be unable to do it again as it's the job of many students to look for errors.

I know that they are a student. In my weightlifting class it is my job to watch over some of the freshman in my group and to make sure they don't die. If one of them were to drop a large weight on their head because I wasn't spotting them I would lose that responsibility or that job. Does that make sense?

32- cool story, bro... But this is about op, not you... Op, just laugh it off, could be worse, he could be mooning the camera... at least try to think positively about it... Lol

Are you proud to be a senior weight-lifter?
jizzwold 21
It was the only example I could think of that would relate to me. I was not trying to brag. Most males my age weight lift in one way or another so it isnt anything special. I was just trying to show why I used the word "job" with an example since my first comment was buried because people thought I meant a different meaning of job. I guess i could have tried something else to explain that wouldnt focus on me. I'm sorry I wasn't clear in either one of the previous comments.

It's ok 43, don't feel bad if you get thumbed down, most of the time of the first person to comment on an fml says something others don't like any comment you make after that gets thumbed down for no reason.

Then again, a lot of first posts tend to just be 'FIRST!!'

That is something that should have never been over looked. I'm a layout editor and I went through every single page; if that's have been on there, it'd have been deleted. Ydi for irresponsibility.

49 that doesn't make sense. I obviously don't understand people very well.

I agree with 49. Don't worry!

wouldn't someone have had to see that someone was flipping off the camera when they actually put the picture in?

I think half my school would have been scarred for life if that happened when I was in school.

Well, someone in my yearbook got away with the quote "When the red river is flowin', take the dirt road home." When the editors finally noticed, they had to go back and use white out on EVERY yearbook.

Haha I don't understand that saying

30- Not gonna lie that was pretty badass of them. Either that or hilarious.

How did you not notice after a couple of weeks of "inspecting" that someone was flipping of the camera? Well anyways, it will make for a memorable book and for a funny story.
imp4ct 15
That's one way to be remembered ;)
music_woman1 11
Well if it happened in a picture, it's sure to have happened outside of that picture.. Shows true colours, right?
sillycart 9
That's how he will be remembered! But that's what makes the yearbook good! ;)

Evidently, not everyone loves sarcasm.

Oh, no, everybody just loves sarcasm! :D

Just don't mention it. Hopefully it's a small pic in a collage and nobody else will notice.
