Today, I was at my grandma's funeral. While giving the eulogy, I accidentally mixed up "You will be missed" and "You won't be forgotten" and instead said "You won't be missed." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, while at my aunt's funeral, my grandma who has terrible memory loss asked me whose funeral we were at. I had to explain to her that her daughter had died. FML
Your funny uncle
Today, I joined the wrong funeral procession, because I thought everyone gathering outside was there for my uncle, so I followed them into the chapel and even hugged two strangers. I didn't realize my mistake until someone started talking about a man I'd never heard of. I had to quietly sneak out in the middle of the service. FML
Unforgettable
Today, I was mistaken for an employee at my grandmother's funeral. There were only twelve of us there, all family. FML
Today, I attended the wrong funeral. I spent twenty minutes trying to hide and walk away without being too conspicuous. FML
Foot in mouth
Today, my grandpa died. I called my grandma to make sure she was going to be fine. After talking over the phone for 30 minutes or so, I told her goodbye and said, out of habit, "Say hi to grandpa for me". FML
Today, I was bored out of my mind at work. I told my coworker he was lucky to be leaving early. I forgot the reason of his early departure was to go to his grandfather's funeral. FML
RIP
Today, I told someone “You too” when they'd said “Sorry for your loss” after I'd mentioned that I recently lost my dog to cancer. I realized what I'd said immediately and tried to fix it by talking more, which somehow made it worse. FML
Is this legal?
Today, at my grandad's funeral, as my dad and aunt poured his ashes into the hole, a strong gust of wind blew the ashes into my throat. I choked on my grandad. What made it worse was that the vicar had to stop her prayer to laugh. FML
Not now, Dave
Today, my caring way too much about proper grammar got out of hand when I corrected my girlfriend during a talk about her dying grandmother. FML
Today, I ran into an old friend. I asked her how she was doing, then asked, "And your mum?" Just as the words escaped my lips, I remembered her mum died a few years ago. Trying to save face, I messed up again and blurted, "She still in the same graveyard?" FML

"You won't be missed...because you're still here with us in spirit." There. All fixed.

I accidentally said "chanks" to an asian customer the other day instead of "cheers" and "thanks". It's easily done!

Yep, a lot of people get tongue tied at times. Usually people understand. That said based on the username, this sounds like an "If looks could kill" situation.

Wow. You messed that word up badly. Thanks for the laughs. I needed a good chuckle.

I just googled eugoogly. Missed the Zoolander reference. Still made me laugh though, so well done.

Why don't you make this into an fml?

That sound awful, but "You will be forgotten" sounds worse. YLS, but it could have been worse.

Now that's just asking to be haunted, Doc. I'm sure you don't want Gran to end up in the Ghostbusters' vacuum cleaner because she won't stop telling you to clean your room.

Was that you're attempt at a joke?

At 21 - I read his joke twice and actually gave a chuckle. I feel like shit chuckling at an awful joke.

Bad jokes can still be funny!

Yeah they are so bad that you laugh at the joke in a bad way

Decimator - Zarosian was referring to Christian1509's comment. I hope.

"...because you will always be here in our hearts." I think that could work really well too!

That sounds horrible but it is an easy mistake to make, how did everyone react?

I can just imagine hearing a giant gasp from the audience.

Judging by OP's username, I'm guessing not well.

In such a stressful and emotional moment mistakes happen. I'm sorry about your grandma.

Brain farts and word diarrhoea attack us all OP, unfortunate but slightly classic.
