Today, I had lunch with some important potential clients at a fancy restaurant. I really wanted to make a good impression. When the piano music stopped, I started clapping while looking around for the pianist. Apparently, it was a CD. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a lunch meeting with important people from my company. While drinking from my wine glass someone cracked a joke, causing me to snort a fountain of wine all over my lap, splashing the people next to me. The horrified look on my boss's face sitting opposite me said everything. FML
Today, I was at a fancy restaurant with my boss, trying to make a good impression. I ordered the most expensive steak on the menu, only to later realize I'd forgotten my wallet. My boss had to pay for the meal, and I'm wondering if my job in accounting is now on the line. FML
Today, I was at a local talent show and during a piano performance I had to go to the bathroom. I sang along in the bathroom but was unaware how loud I was until I walked out and everyone started applauding me while the pianist was still playing. FML
Today, I went to a fancy restaurant and couldn't pronounce any of the menu items. FML
Today, I was on a date in a fancy restaurant. I tried to show off my skills by ordering our meal in French, since some of the dishes had french-sounding names. The waiter replied in fluent French and I have no idea what he said. FML
Today, I went to dinner with my mom and her new boyfriend. At the restaurant, while we were eating, he started clapping and singing, "If You're Happy and You Know It." My mom joined in. They sang loudly. Loud enough for the entire restaurant to go quiet and stare. FML
Today, I got really excited at work over a deal I was about to close. I got up and started performing a rather obscene hip thrust only to notice a client sitting in the glass meeting room. FML
Today, we had a get together for work at a restaurant I've never heard of. After spending all week trying to make a good impression on my new boss and co-workers, I showed up in a pair of shorts and a Star Wars T-Shirt. Turns out it was one of the fanciest restaurants in town. FML
Today, after I'd told this girl I’m seeing that I play piano to impress her, it turns out her father is a pianist and has a grand piano in their house. Tonight, I’m supposed to go to her place to play her my "favorite piece." FML
Today, I went to work at a hotel. One of the guests decided to play the piano in the lobby. He's deaf. Unfortunately, I'm not. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

People who post just to say first just means you have no life and sit around refreshing a page just so you can say "FIRST". *laughs* To the real poster who is first (Because technically without his post there would be no "first") did you even bother looking to see if there was a piano? And in a fancy restaurant who claps? I mean the pianist would be doing their job. Would you clap for a waiter?

Next time I'm in a restaurant, I'm applauding the waiter. XD

1. #1 means first. And there's this thing called coincidence, people could open the webpage to find no comments. 2. The OP isn't first, there are many FML posts before his. 3. A fancy restautant doesn't clap.

#1 has happened to me sooo many times, don't be a bitch.

Which culture do you live in? Clapping for a pianist is perfectly acceptable in USA.

Well then I gott say, USA is a weird place, it's his job? I can understand at a performance, but the whole point in a restaurant is that it's background music. The focus isn't on the pianist.

I think an infant has a wider vocabulary and a better understanding of grammar than you. Please go back to school.
