Today, I went to my son's high school play. The moment I arrived at the auditorium, I shouted out his name to let him know I made it. Thinking I was a student, a teacher yelled, "SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN!" Scared out of my mind, I quickly obeyed, to mass giggling from the kids. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it was the début of the high school musical I was in. When two others and I sang the word "Hell", my mother yelled at us for using that language, while the musical was still going, and dragged me off stage. FML
Today, we were having a school prize giving. I heard my name called and I walked up to the stage waving and smiling, feeling rather proud of myself. I stood by the microphone and started my acceptance speech, only to be tapped on the shoulder by the girl they'd actually called up. FML
Today, I went to my son's soccer game. I cheered his name at the top my lungs and waved with a grin on my face. I saw him whisper something to a team mate so I watched the film my husband took later that night. His friend asked, "Who is that?" and my son replied, "I don't know some fat bitch." FML
Today, I was a guest performer for a school orchestra concert a grade above mine. When they called my name, I didn’t hear them, so when they started the song hundreds of people watched me run on stage. FML
Today, while dropping my son off at the bus stop before school, I went to give him a kiss on the cheek. Then, before I was able to make contact, he jumped away, yelled "PSYCH!!!!" as loud as he could, and jumped on the bus. The kids all laughed at me and the other parents looked embarrassed for me. FML
Today, I went to my kid's band concert. She's 12 and in the advanced team. They were the first ones to play and they were so incredibly bad that I laughed. Really, really loud. I was escorted out of the recital. FML
Today, I was hushed in a theatre during a play. I would normally appreciate a discreet silencing in the audience, but I was saying my lines. FML
Today, I picked up my four year old son from daycare. As I was putting him in his car seat, I asked him if he had fun. He yelled, "Shut it, bitch!" FML
Today, I went to my son's school soccer game. Unfortunately, I couldn't get excited about it because my idiot son kept diving the moment anyone so much as breathed on him. It eventually earned him a penalty shot that won him the game. I was so ashamed, I snuck out to avoid being seen with him. FML
Today, I went to my son's final band performance. I also have a busy toddler, so I ended up watching most of the performance in the hallway on a tv monitor. In the middle of the awards ceremony, my toddler pulled the fire alarm. Everyone had to evacuate the building. FML

6, you seem to be missing the point of this website. Besides, your big problem doesn't make other people's smaller problems nonexistent.

And I'm pretty sure #6 would be crying his ass off instead of sitting his ass on the computer at this site. Nice try #6.

If you're old enough to have children, you're plenty old enough to know how to behave appropriately at a performance. Considering that you thought it was okay to shout out your child's name to announce your arrival, you're probably guilty of other performance faux pas, including: talking through the performance, answering or making cell phone calls, blocking other attendee's view of the performance so you can film or photograph, creating disruptions by entering and exiting the auditorium during the performance versus waiting until the intermission, standing instead of sitting in your chair (rule suspended at rock concerts), and calling attention to yourself by whooping, whistling, calling out, or vigorous waving/jumping up and down or other disrupting behavior. In other words, when you go to a performance, sit down and shut up.

#6- Frankly, I could care less for your pity gouging fest. That is a sad ordeal, but coming here to pout is unnecessary. This is their FML. You don't like it? Too damn bad. The point of this website is not sharing a life changing experience but the small woes of the day.

6 - If you're gonna be like that, write your own FML. Here, I'll help you get a start: "Today, I found out my mom has cancer. FML" feel free to add to it.

wtf does that have to do with anything? yeah it sucks that your mom has cancer and all but that doesn't mean you have to go onto FML and go around commenting that you have worse problems. it's really immature.

I doubt the teacher thought she was a student. He probably was just pissed off that anyone would do that so he yelled. My musical teacher would.

Exactly. If a teacher who spends his/her time around obnoxious, unruly high schoolers all day thinks your behavior is easily mistakable for theirs, you're doing something wrong.
