Today, at the nail salon, a Korean woman was making fun of me. I kindly told her, in Korean, that I understood. She kindly told me, in English, that she didn't care. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to get my eyebrows waxed at a korean salon. I have never been there before and it's hard to understand their accents. The women asked me if I wanted "them all off". Not fully understanding what she said, I agreed. When she showed me the mirror, she had taken off my whole eyebrow. FML
Today, I got my nails done at a salon where everyone working there was Vietnamese. During my manicure, the manicurists talked about how ugly I was in their native tongue. They couldn't have known that I'd lived in Vietnam and I'm fluent in Vietnamese, but too chickenshit to speak up. FML
Today, I was eating at a Chinese restaurant, when I stopped the waitress to tell her that even though I am of Chinese heritage, I can't understand a word of Chinese. After an awkward silence, she told me she was actually speaking English. FML
Today, as I was getting my nails done at a salon, the owner pulled my head back against the chair in front of all the customers and began to tweeze my eyebrows. When I exclaimed that I didn't pay for that service, she replied, "I don't care. This needs done." FML
Today, at a tutoring center, one of the tutors looked at my worksheet and laughed. She then showed all the other tutors my mistakes and they laughed along with her. The best part? They all speak Chinese and they think I can't understand them. I'm Chinese. FML
Today, I realized my coworker can't comprehend English, or any other language. When I mentioned this to a coworker, they accused me of being an ableist. This is the same person who insults him to his face, knowing he can't understand her. FML
Today, I met my boyfriend's very strict and traditional Korean parents. I had to listen to them while they called me a skank and how I was fat and ugly compared to nice, pretty, Korean girls. They don't know I speak Korean. FML
Today, I went to get my first manicure. While waiting, I looked at the menu board. When I wondered aloud: "I know what a French manicure is, but what on Earth is a Polish change?" The whole place started laughing and I guess I'm not going back. FML
Today, I almost got written up for insubordination by my boss. All I did was explain to him that I couldn't help a tourist out because I speak Japanese, not Korean, and that it's not in fact "the same Asian shit" as he seemed to think. FML
Today, after I recently started working in Korean company, my manager said, "Speak Korean, this is Korea." I started communicating in Korean for a few days, but then my manager says : "Why you talk to me in Korean ?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A nail saloon? Doesn't sound like they have very tasty drinks there.

i think it's pretty ****** up.. you should have waited til she was finished, called her some names, & left without paying.
Randuhh_17 4
Should've just walked out without paying... See if she cares then. Or, if you were like me, I'd cause a big scene...and make fun of her.

Don't Koreans eat dogs?
Jimster1712 0
80, they do. In fact, they are the country who eats the most dogs, rather than the commonly stereotyped China. Sorry for the digression...

The FML never said she worked there...

what are you talking about?

The FML never said the Korean woman worked there. God, not every Korean woman in a nail salon is employed there. What a bunch of racists.
sadistmonkey 19
The wording did make it initially sound as if the woman was working there. But yes, I agree that it's possible that the woman was simply a patron.

How often does op answer questions? Almost never How often do u check back to see if op has answered wuestions? Probably not once So why do u ask them? Ofc u may say the same to me abt the commenter but the goal is to reduce the # of stooped comments by adding this one.

I always start with violence, that way my opponent can't come up with some clever remark to make me seem insignificant
