Today, I had a concert. At the end, my conductor was recognizing soloists. When he pointed at me, I was confused, but stood up anyway. It turns out he was pointing at the person behind me. I had to awkwardly sit back down in front of over 500 people. FML

Hey guys, OP here. Thank you so much for voting for this. So after my conductor pointed at me, I pointed to myself, and he nodded. Apparently the person behind me did the exact same thing. He was alright with it and looking back, it's actually pretty funny. Thanks

Theres a button for that you know @26
jacky051 12
There's a you're unlucky button? By the way I was saying what are the chances that OP and the person behind them point to themselves? Unlucky if you ask me.

Yeah. I hate it when someone waves and you wave back, only to find they were waving at someone behind you.

Yeah, that's pretty awkward. Don't worry though, I doubt anyone will remember it that significantly.

Are you serious, OP? What an awful time leap to the front of the stage, moon the entire audience, then grab the nearest tuba, and start knocking people over with it screaming, "WINTERFELL!" What the hell came over you? Oh, you mean all you did was quietly stand up and sit back down? Well, in that case, I think you're good then. No one will remember that.

Cellos are beautiful instruments, I'm learning how to play! Although my heart always sticks with the viola. Unappreciated. My very first instrument.

Cello is my main and favourite instrument.

That happen to me in choir. Don't worry about it, just play it off. Then when you get home cry yourself to sleep from the embarrassment. ; n ;

Hey guys, doesn't really concern the FML here, but I have a problem and I want your help. Today I learned that my ex-girlfriend had an affair (when we were still together) with a good friend of mine (and her). That friend also (still) has a girlfriend and she does'nt know about the whole mess. I consider her a good friend as well and I really want to tell her, but it's been over two years now that it happened. Should I tell her anyway? Basically (to make things clear for you), we're all used to be good friends, but now that changed and I really want that she learns about her ******** of a boyfriend! Thanks for reading :)

Search your feelings... And now I can't remember the rest of what Darth says, it's been a long day. But you get the gist, should apply.
