Today, I was singing in my dorm. When I left a little later, a cute guy came up to me and asked if I was the girl who'd been singing. I proudly said yes. He replied, "Good thing you finally shut the fuck up!" and walked away. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was listening to music with headphones in my usually quiet class. At one point I really got into the song so I just quietly sang along because why not. Turns out by the end of the song I was singing at full volume, almost yelling, and my friend stopped me to say that. The entire back row was laughing. FML
Today, there was a knock on my apartment door. It was the man from next-door, who sarcastically asked if I was alright, because he said he heard me screaming in agony. I was singing. FML
Today, I thought I was home alone, so I started singing to my cat. After a half hour of this, I finally stopped. Then I heard applauding. I turned around to find my parents standing in my doorway. FML
Today, my roommate eavesdropped on me singing. When I realized he was there, he said I was "fucking incredible" and asked me to do another song. There's just one issue: I only sing well when I'm alone. The result was predictably bad. If it was possible to literally die of embarrassment, I wouldn't be writing this. FML
Today, I saw a guy at a bar that looked cute. I didn't dare talk to him, though. When I was on my way home, drunkenly singing the entire way, I finally noticed he was walking along behind me. Probably for about 15 minutes. FML
Today, thinking I was alone in a public bathroom, I started singing the words to my favorite song. A minute later that I heard a toilet flush, so I just sat there petrified. The other person sarcastically picked up the singing from where I left off. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend he is good at singing. Now he won't stop. FML
Today, I was sick, and my voice was really low and raspy. A cute guy smiled at me and said hi, so I said hi too. He looked shocked and said, "Sorry bro, thought you were a girl." I am. FML
Today, I was sitting next to this really cute guy in choir class. Trying to make conversation, I asked him what his favorite song was. He replied "Leave Me Alone". I asked him who it was by and he said, "It's not a song, I just want you to leave me alone". FML
Today, I was at work at a preschool. I was sitting outside with the kids and was getting bored so I started singing. One of the little girls runs up and puts her hand over my mouth and tells me to stop. I'm in a select chorus at my highschool and plan to major in choral studies in college. FML

At least he was honest! Plus if you think you're good, then don't listen to him!

should have started singing as you walked away.

Personally I can't stand when people "think they're good" and don't listen to other people when they tell them they aren't good. It's like those stupid people on American Idol or something that think they can sing and in reality they're horrible, they have judges telling them they suck and they're like "I'm not going to let people bring me down, I'm going to keep persevering and singing and one day I'll be a famous singer." If people say you suck, you most likely suck. It's one thing to suck at singing and know it, another thing to suck at singing and think your good and want to sing on a stage in front of everyone all the time. *rant over* In regards to the FML... Regardless of whether op is good or not though, she should try and be aware of the fact that people are probably studying and sleeping all around her and to try not to sing really loud. Either way though, the guy was a jerk and shouldn't have been mean about it, he's should've asked her politely to keep it down.

Feelin' good on a Wednesday! Ya ya ya. I am Lorde.

Well that's one way to be a douche, but how loud were you singing ?
katieemerr 15
#2 asks a good question.. The bloke may not be referring to how well you sing but how loud you were singing. He is being a bit of a douche though. Who doesn't love a sing song?
devildog562 33
Someone studying for finals or tests. Me when I get home after a 12 hour shift and the damn neighbors playing karaoke and suck at it, but I get what you were saying. Honestly it doesn't bother me much, and it's hilarious when I'm drinking with my friends outside while yelling out parodies of their songs .

Couldn't he have asked her to stop or something rather than, "Good thing you finally shut the **** up!" I think that's what the FML was mainly about. The fact that after she sang, he rudely made a comment. If he politely asked her there wouldn't be much of an FML

Do you really ******* expect college students in a dorm to go, "Oh, can you sing quieter, please?" My. *******. Ass.
Just_A_Tree 20
College students have enough to deal with. If I was trying to study, I'd probably be pretty pissed that there was singing! Unless you gotta voice like Tiny Tim. Don't ask why, don't you judge me!

28, OK gramps, you know you can't be getting too worked up. its not healthy for you.

@42: in FML, we have made it abundantly clear that the elderly run wild, and do what they want with maximum levels of sass and minimum levels of chill. I don't think any of us have the power to stop him...

Some people are nice, some people are rude. But this guy is a special kind of rude...
devildog562 33
The funny kind ? Or the asshole kind ? Let the polls begin.
Ltsdragons 19
Asshole kind, definitely
sweetnsourrr 11
The OP was rude too, just saying. Its really disrespectful to just sing really loud especially when people are probably studying, relax, concentrate, sleep, or whatever is they're trying to do.
meli1195 31
plus, who's to say OP sings well
Ichiya 29
Who said she sang loudly? Even soft singing goes through walls. Since its her home during college she has every right to sing. Just like he has every right to not like it.
Ohshitdude 21
Buy him ear plugs and keep doing what you're doing.
cakefete2 31
Coming up on the news at ten, aspiring singer beaten to death by entire dorm. Body found with ear plugs lodged in interesting place. Stay tuned for details.
devildog562 33
Haha I got a visual. After the perpetrators were questions they were claiming " We just wanted to plug them in her".

Singing in a dorm is obnoxious, people are trying to sleep or study. And let's be honest, nobody wants to hear your voice, as much as you'd like to think so.

Write a song about how he's an ass and then do the same thing.
syed121417 22
I don't care if you are tone deaf, you can sing when you want. Tell him to buy earplugs or something. He was very rude to say that.

If you live in a house you can sing whenever you want. If you live in a dorm with other people you can also sing whenever you want, but everyone's gonna hate you. That guys still a dick, but OP deserved it 100% IMO.
cjswag_fml 12
You can sing whenever you want, but the guy can say he's glad you STFU whenever he wants. Under your logic, he was absolutely in the right.

So glad I live in a rented house and people don't mind me singing/playing piano. But I routinely ask if they're bothered by it and I stop if they are (but they never are, apparently).
tantanpanda 26
singing with piano is completely different. if someone was playing the piano well in a dorm, I really wouldn't mind studying to that. Just blatantly singing though, nah. Singing would only bother me if it's too loud or subpar. piano, on the other hand, would be fine as long as it's not complete crap like slamming random keys.
Gaernem 17
Yeah, I'm in the same boat, I rent a house just so I can play my drums, sing/scream. And thankfully the neighbors actually compliment my work, so I have nothing to worry about at the moment.
mylifebitches666 18
the fact that he was "cute" shouldn't matter. if you're disappointed he didn't like your signing because he was "cute" then you deserve it. either way who cares, he's a stranger and you can sing to your hearts content regardless of people's opinion.
