Today, I was called a "Potato" for at least the 30th time by people online for living in Idaho. I've lived here my whole life, I have yet to see a potato farm. None of these people has even left the East Coast. FML

Cooked
Today, I tried to make mashed potatoes but then went into another room to wait on them, then forgot about them, ruining my only big pot and a full bag of potatoes. FML

Today, I tried to open a can with a potato peeler. For a minute I forgot what a can opener looked like. FML

Today, I decided to finally try out the veggie slicer I bought a few months ago to make healthy homemade potato chips. Along with the sliced potatoes, I am now missing about a quarter inch chunk of skin from the side of my hand and quite a bit of blood. At least the chips were good. FML

Adulting is tough
Today, in last ditch attempt to be an adult, I trotted out to do my grocery shopping for the week. As I confidently strode through the produce aisle, I grabbed what I thought was a nice, ripe mango. At checkout, the cashier kindly informed me it was in fact a massive potato. FML

Old soul
Today, I realized I’ve become an old woman. I have dentures, wear bifocal glasses, have rheumatoid arthritis, carry a stash of candy in my purse, and got excited when I bought a new potato peeler. I’m only 29, but I’m an old woman. FML

Today, I'm so broke that I had a money nightmare. I'd accidentally purchased a single potato for exactly $22 and it was non-refundable. FML

56 - Not every american is stupid, don't try discriminating against Americans, because an average American can probably come up with more ways to stereotype other countries than you could find for Americans.

For instance, Canada is a stupid country with no military power, your currency isn't worth the paper and coins it's minted on, and you're drunken uneducated hockey fans, eh.

nice! I agree ^ except that was kinda a funny comment haha

88 Even though I'm Canadian I laughed at that, but actually are money is currently worth more than America's. You were right about no military power, though. Our government spends only 1.2 percent of their money per year on military.

#88 - that's ******* hilarious considering the Canadian Dollar is over parity against the US$. Way to try and disprove the stereotype of the ignorant American...

I was talking to a friend of mine a few weeks back. He says, "You know, that one cereal they make Rice Krispy treats from, what are they called?"

milk shakes made from milk are just.....flavored milk milkshakes are made with milk and ice cream ice cream is made from heavy cream, egg yolks, sugar and flavorings heavy cream is the fat that comes from the milk, not the milk itself

Buffalo wings are made from buffalo. hamburgers are made from ham. NC barbecue is made from BBQ sauce (it's actually pork and vinegar only, for you non-southerners). chicken of the sea is made from chicken.

146 - You've used that excuse already. If you want to remain credible, have some variety in your excuses. That's nice and responsible of you to feed your baby when it needs it, but everyone knows 'tomato' does not have an E at the end. Even if you're on an iPod it will correct it for you... or at least mine will. Also, milkshakes made with milk are not technically milkshakes. They are flavoured milk. Chocolate syrup + milk = chocolate milk. If there is no ice cream involved, it is not a shake.

Reminds me of when I was 3 and I told my Mum 'Nana makes chips (fries) out of potatoes" My mum had always bought the frozen kind so I hadn't realised.
