Today, I found out I will not be getting my class ring. The jeweler has a policy against doing engravings that contain "obscene or offensive language or phrases". What obscene phrase did I want? My initials and year. W.T.F. 2010. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took a ring to be cleaned, and the jeweler offered to clean all my rings, so I gave them to him. When he gave them back, he said he'd polished all the scratches on the wedding band. The “scratches” were the remains of the original engraving on my dead father's wedding band. FML
Today, after months of saving, I went to buy the wedding ring I promised to buy my fiancée. Just seconds after I walked in, the owner asked me to leave, saying he doesn't serve "trash" like me, while pointing at the memorial tattoo on the back of my hand. FML
Today, I was out with my boyfriend, when he started browsing wedding rings. He found a ring, proposed to me right there in front of a crowd, and then was promptly denied a payment plan. We left without a ring. FML
Today, I realized my wedding ring was missing. Turns out, my son had taken it to give to a girl he likes in the second grade. FML
Today, I found out that the phrase I got tattooed on my lower back is misspelled. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend was going to propose. He'd bought me a beautiful white gold ring that I never got to see. His estranged mom stole the ring. FML
Today, I found a necklace that my parents had made for me. While looking at it, I realized my parents had spelled my name wrong. FML
Today, I went to sell my wedding rings, due to the fact that I'm getting divorced from a man who cheated on me. The jeweler informed me that the stone in my engagement ring is fake. I won't even be able to cover the divorce costs from the proceeds. FML
Today, I went with my girlfriend to the mall. We were looking at jewellery in Zales and she came across the engagement rings. She looks at one and says, "Are you kidding me? That ring is hideous and it's the most expensive one here! Who the fuck would buy that?" Well, that would be me. FML
Today, I was shopping for rings with my fiancée. We spent over two hours selecting the perfect ring and diamond to match. When filling out the paperwork I discovered I left my wallet at home. She had to pay the 20% down payment for the ring. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This is not an FML at all. You have the coolest initials ever. Unless somebody out there is named like, Fiona Marie Little. So that part is awesome. Also, class rings aren't the only thing in the world that matter. They're overpriced, with what they were trying to charge for ours, I could have made a damn rent payment.

I bet school could have /affected/ your ability to differentiate between affect and effect.

While I agree that the OP should know the difference between affect and effect keep in mind that now days most schools do a one week review to cover issues like grammar and correct usage of words (always beginning with the easy shit you learned in first grade). Then they give the kids a test and don't talk about it again for one year. They are dumb because teachers treat them like they cannot be expected to retain any kind of knowledge for more than a few days. And OP, just make your mom call and bitch about it. Crazy parents almost always get their way.

Just get W.F on it. Can anyone explain the class ring concept to me? I'm in U.K and I don't think people tend to get them here.

A class ring is a ring you can buy in high school. To relate back to the OP it usually has your class year and initials engraved on the inside. I don't know of all high schools do but at mine you could customize it (the stone would generally be your birthstone. if you were in band you'd probably have a little instrument put on it for example) They tend to not do class rings in college (though a few have picked it up). Texas A&M University (i'm a alumni) is VERY big on class rings and you generally don't take it off...ever..it's a global identifier for Aggies. I've even heard of two Aggies noticing one another's rings from across a bar..in London... They even have 'ring dunking' (where you get a pitcher of beer and you drink to get your ring at the bottom...The university doesn't condone this but it is such a big thing even the stores carry pitchers specifically for this purpose).

Oh you silly Aggies and your traditions. Thanksgiving day's only a week away! You ready to lose?! :D

We probably will get our butts kicked by you thanks to Fran demolishing our once excellent team. *sigh* How's your team doing this year?

Oh not too bad. We're number three in the nation and 10-0 so I guess that makes us alright...

Why do they have this policy? It's not like they're gonna mass produce the ring....

Show the asshole your drivers license to confirm your information. Or **** him, order one from Jostens.
Luckster 0
By how much? Even getting a replacement for a lost ring from Josten's is expensive to me.

My jostens ring was about $375. Granted, this FML was posted in 2009, so it could've been much cheaper then...but still. $375 is ridiculous, IMO.
