Today, I was in spanish class, having a debate about the death penalty. When I went to make a point, I meant to say "La pena de muerte", which means "The death penalty". I said, "La pene de muerte". Turns out that means, "The penis of death". FML

Today, we had a speaking assessment in Spanish class. When it was my turn, I yawned in the middle of a sentence, said, "Excuse me" and finished my sentence. She took points off because I hesitated and I spoke in English, not Spanish. FML
Today, while reading out loud in front of my entire class and teacher, I learned that I can't pronounce the word 'success'. It came out as 'sex', and when I tried to correct myself more slowly (multiple times), it came out 'sexsex'. FML
Today, after many hours studying a complete course of Spanish, I felt really good. I had accomplished something, something I could really use next week when I fly to Mexico on vacation. Then I found out what I had learned was Spanish as they speak it in Spain, not how they speak it in Latin America. FML
Today, my French teacher set up a role-play scenario to act out in front of the class. During one of my lines, I mispronounced a phrase and called my teacher sexy. FML

That is hilarious and awesome! I wish I could have been there! Once, in Japanese, a classmate was trying to describe an elephant as 'big.' He ended up saying there was big rape. This sort of thing also reminds me of German with night vs. naked, lol.

Shouldn't it be El Pene? I would hate to think the penis is a feminine word. You should be let off the hook.

It is el pene, but Spanish also has words like la verga that mean the same thing. The female counterpart also has words like el coño.

Ha that reminds me of this one time, for a spanish project in which we had to design a fake conservation program for an animal species to "expand our vocabulary." My group and I came up with the idea for a "Save the Pókémon" campaign, and made a poster that said "Necesito coger todos!" for "Gotta catchem' all!" We did the presentation and our teacher and a couple of students looked around awkwardly, before she came over to us and whispered "You guys know 'coger' means uh . . . to *screw* . . . right?"
