Today, I went to my Russian language class after days of being sick. We must speak in Russian. The professor asked how I felt. I said "like shit." I didn't know the word I used was the verb, not the noun. So I told an awesome prof and class I was "feeling like I was in the process of defacating." FML

My problem is I try to speak in Russian as I do in English, so some phrases that don't quite translate sound stupid anyways . . so here, I guess I just sounded twice as stupid . . .reason this is an FML is the Japanese guy I like is in this class, and they don't talk that way . . .he wouldn't have known what I said or my mistake, if the teacher hadn't gotten shocked and translated it into English AND Japanese FML lol

Why would you even say "like shit" to your professor? Maybe you should've gone with "terrible", or "ill". This would never have occurred if you possessed more tact.

No joke, what is with all these lame as shit FML's today? I mean jesus, I'm sure they knew what you meant. "Oh noes, my life is over because I made a mistake in my language class!" Ya know, because you aren't there to LEARN about it or anything.

Seriously. Not a FML. You're learning a language, everyone knows you make mistakes. This isn't even a horrible mistake. Wait...what's shit in Russian? =D

I have always been intrigued by Russian letters but those words with the pronunciations next to it still makes no sense to me :')
