Today, I had to suffer through a two-hour long trivia game with my boyfriend's family. As if that wasn't annoying enough, my boyfriend caused the pair of us to lose by just a single point, because he answered "Quebec" to the question of "What is the capital city of France?" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was playing Charades with my boyfriend's family. When it was his turn, he pointed at me. His mother said "Bitch?" The answer was "relationship". FML
Today, I beat my boyfriend at chess, whilst also doing my homework and cooking dinner, and he got upset about it. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went mini golfing with his family. We had a competition going on, and when I managed to get two consecutive holes in one, he started seething and muttered that I'm dangerously close to becoming single. FML
Today, my boyfriend was talking to me on the land line when his cell phone rang. He told me to wait "two seconds" while he talked to a classmate. Their "two second" conversation lasted ten minutes, and now I can hear the French Open on the TV in background. He forgot he was talking to me. FML
Today, during a trivia night, I got overly confident after answering three questions correctly in a row. The final question asked for the capital of Australia, and I loudly whispered “Sydney” to my entire team like I was saving us. We lost by one point. FML
Today, my boyfriend beat me and my whole family at Scrabble using only rude words. Seriously, he got a double word on BUTTOCK, a triple letter on the X in SEX then finally got a double word and 50 points for using all his letters by turning the word IS into CLITORIS. FML
Today, I had to play Paper, Rock or Scissors and beat my boyfriend in order to get him to take a shower. FML
Today, I was playing Charades. My boyfriend, who I'd recently had a fight with, had trouble and just said his answer was the name of my celebrity twin. Nobody got it. He said "Really? It's Fat Bastard." Stunned silence followed, broken by a single "HAH." from my 'best friend'. FML
Today, I got selected to participate in a trivia night after trying for ages. First question: "What is the capital city of Australia?" My brain completely stopped functioning and I confidently and incorrectly answered "Sydney." I've spent most of my life knowing the correct answer, but my brain wouldn't let me remember it when it mattered. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me after I beat her once again in a trivia game. She said that I was cheating, and if I was cheating on the game, I was definitely cheating on her as well. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Nothing like a good trivia loss to ruin your entire day and week and lifetime and also your next reincarnation.

Well shucks there mamajamma I do reckon we got ourselves an un-identifiable profile. 'Round these parts here we get our cousins together and we start and angry mob, but first we gotta' hit the hoe down, cuz you know us rednecks love to get our two steppin' on. But right after that, we're a comin' for your slick suited ass. ^. It just turned into a blob really fast :/ I just wanted to say lynch but didnt want to offend the African American population. Us Texans are quite civilized now though, we can even order a movie on the PPV. It's real sophisticated-like.

I guess my French joke didn't make you smile :' I bet this one will (Or as we say in France, "je prends les paris.") Don't say OP's boyfriend can't name the main capital cities of the world because he CAN, duh!

If only I remembered what Prend means! :'( Why have you failed me French Teacher! WHY!?
ulissey_fml 22
"Prendre " is "to take" ( je prends) , and "a pari", is a bet. Is it me, or are all jokes in French total bombs? I wish the FML team HAVE thought of a secret badge for every poster that gets others to smile at their jokes in a foreign language. Please have it written in Aramaic, too.

It should have been phrased, "WHAT IS Quebec?" I suppose?

Okay.. Geography isn't your boyfriend's forte, but what's wrong with trivia? It's phrased like a sort of in law torture..
