Today, I met my daughter's boyfriend, who she hopes to marry. I asked what he does, to which he answered, "I'm a Flamencologist." Flamencology? The study of Flamenco? Huh? FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother met a new member of my band. He's a piano player from Mexico City. She introduced herself as my mother, then asked him if he spoke Spanish or Mexican. This lead to a long talk about how they speak Spanish in Mexico too. She didn’t believe him. FML
Today, my husband started taking language classes. Not something sensible like French or Spanish, but fucking Latin! Why the fuck would anyone learn Latin? What a stupid fuck. FML
Today, I introduced my Spanish friend to a girl I've had a crush on for a long time. Because he only spoke Spanish and she only spoke English, I was the translator. The first thing he said to her was, "You are really pretty." I translated it as "I like other men." Later, they found out. FML
Today, I showed up at my boyfriend's work to surprise him by speaking in Spanish, his first language. I've been taking classes secretly. He smiled, kissed me, and then finished telling his friend, in Spanish, that I'm boring and ugly but he's got nothing better going on. FML
Today, I introduced my mother to my new girlfriend. My mom made a very nasty comment about her in Spanish, not realizing that my girlfriend teaches Spanish at the local school. FML
Today, at my daughter's fundraiser, I noticed that a guy with a face only a fist could love kept staring at her. I said "Beautiful, isn't she?" Before I could tell him to keep it in his damned pants, he replied "Hah. She's my girlfriend, dude. Total beast in the sack." Complete news to me on both counts. FML
Today, I was talking to a smokin' hot Cuban sorority girl. She told me her mom only speaks Spanish, so she translates for her. Without thinking I said, "Oh like Chewbacca and Han Solo?" FML
Today, I found out that all the everyday Spanish words and phrases my boyfriend has been teaching me have very vulgar meanings. I found this out after I said a few to our waitress. FML
Today, I spent the day studying with one of my classmates whom I've just met. While studying, she kept bragging about her boyfriend and decided to show me a picture of him. It was my boyfriend. FML
Today, I finally met my daughter's boyfriend. He has a face tattoo. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

No, he obviously said "phlegminologist", the study of phlegm. But with his Spanish lisp, and the fact that he was dancing with castanets, I don't blame you for misunderstanding.

They must be in high demand, nobody else wants to do that job Your daughter will indeed be very rich someday and you will someday be living off of the money the Flamenco brings you Your entire life will revolve around your son-in-laws opportunistic choice of labor You will be in denial for an extremely elongated period of time but you will eventually cone to your senses and become a Flamencee JOIN THE CAUSE OR BE SENT INTO THE TERRIBLE HELL OF BURGER-FLIPPING TO PAY FOR YOUR DENTURES n stuff

Flamencology Flamencology, from the Spanish word Flamencología, is an academic discipline pertaining to the Flamenco arts. It combines research, documentation, and other techniques to achieve the diffusion and preservation of the art. :D

154, it's a bass. Having a picture of yourself holding an instrument that you (most likely) love to play is not douchey.

154 - yea maybe 126's name might have given away what instrument he was holding...

Sometimes. Other times it means, "What are your passions in life?" I just think it's an FML to this woman because she thought he made it up on the spot. She needs to ask more questions and then she'll find out that it's a real discipline.

If someone studies dance, then maybe they move their body around really well, or something like that.
docscientist 10
Haha, I'm being facetious on this one, and secretly wish I could dance better.
