Today, my daughter had the words "Always classy, never trashy" tattooed across her lower back in crappy cursive lettering. She doesn't understand the irony. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boss asked me if I know anything about those tattoos that girl put on their lower backs. "You mean Tramp Stamps?" I responded. He looked at me with hatred in his eyes and said that his 18 year old daughter just got one. FML
Today, despite my warnings and knowing I hate them, my wife got a trashy tattoo of an eye on her ankle, like she’s Count Olaf. How is she going to get a job with that thing? FML
Today, I found out that the phrase I got tattooed on my lower back is misspelled. FML
Today, my stepdaughter proudly showed off her new tattoo. It says "Jace’s place" in sloppy script on her lower belly. She’s 15. Jace is a boy she’s been seeing for 3 months. She got the tattoo in "some guy’s garage." It happened during her weekend visit with her father. Hello teenage rebellion. FML
Today, my 18-year-old son got his first tattoo. I would have loved it, if it wasn't a text on his hand with a glaring spelling mistake in it. FML
Today, my daughter proudly showed me her new tattoo sleeve, which is made up of an angry cupcake, hemp leaves, and a My Little Pony character. She's almost 30, still unemployed, and still lives in my home. I now have no hope of her ever becoming a productive member of society. FML
Today, I met my brother's girlfriend. We got talking, and we got onto the subject of tattoos. I said how much I hated tramp stamps, and how they make girls look trashy. She said, "Like this?" and showed me hers. FML
Today, my mom asked me if I would be embarrassed if she got a tramp stamp. FML
Today, I was struggling through small-talk at a party where I knew nobody. Tattoos came up and I started talking about trendy, girly tattoos like feathers, anchors and infinity signs with stupid words in them. Turns out the girl I was talking to had all three. FML
Today, I showed my new tattoo to my friends. It's supposed to be a deep, philosophical quote in Latin, symbolizing strength and resilience. My friend, who happens to be fluent in Latin, started laughing hysterically. Turns out, it actually says, "You are dumb." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'd first give her a dictionary for her to look up the word "irony". I'd then direct her to urban dictionary to look up the term "tramp stamp".
zinoxity 23
Well... Yeah. There's nothing I can say that doesn't make her look stupid. Sorry OP. I can't help you there. FYL indeed.

What is it today with people not understanding what irony is?

34- Actually, at my school we learn all types of irony. Situational, dramatic, verbal.... Maybe OP's daughter is just dumb.
afallingstar 22
And then direct her to a good tattoo removal place once she realizes how dumb she is
gracehi 33
26, I wonder if you were trying to be ironic, by incorrectly suggesting that 2 and OP don't understand what irony is, because they clearly do. The irony in this situation is that OP's daughter got a lower back tattoo (and a poorly done one at that) claiming that she is "Always classy never trashy," yet lower back tattoos are always trashy never classy.

tramp stamp A tattoo on the lower back of a female. Denotes the perceived correlation between having a tattoo in this location and being sexually promiscuous. The larger the tramp stamp, the more promiscuous the female, goes the common lore. Popular designs include butterflies, flowers, vines, tribal designs, wings.... Urbandictionary.com

Holy crap.. U made this even more funny!!!!

This man doesn't deserve the down thumbs! That is some funny shit.
SammyS2012 21
I can barely understand what he meant to say... The comment was so badly written; that's why I thumbed it down
EvilLittleGirl 24
He just needed better punctuation, it was hilarious
pradip 26
Anyone else who doesn't understand the irony, rise with me.

I have a serious question, do you purposely say dumb things to get thumbed down or are you just that ignorant (the literal term, not the slang insult)?
ICastillo 25
#8 I have question do you have to be a jerk? If you don't like his comments just thumb them down, instead of trying to make him look bad.
hotPinklipstick 24
I wasn't trying to come off as a jerk, it's almost impossible to display emotions on a keyboard. I was being serious. Almost every comment I've seen of his has been very, uneducated, for lack of a better word. I wasn't trying to insult him. The word ignorant means lack of knowledge. I was basically asking if he's a troll, or if he is really that uneducated of the world. If I came off as a bitch I apologize.
htownpostman 16
#8 is right.. Especially since he has already lamented on more than one occasion on why he always gets thumbed down....
eggmarie 25
English isn't his first language and I'm not sure but I don't think he lives in the US or UK. So get off your high horse and realize there are other countries in the world and they may not be familiar with our slang.
hotPinklipstick 24
27- I don't know what you think you read, but no where in my comments did I try to act superior over him. And no where in my comments did I say anything that would imply that I think USA is the only country in the world. Actually I'm sure I asked if he was ignorant of the world...
hotPinklipstick 24
Not just America.

Child: Why did Pradip get thumbed down dad. He didnt do anything wrong. Gordn: Because he's the hero FML deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

27 - would you like to increase your scope to all English speaking countries or are the US and the UK the only English speaking countries you know. Regardless of English being your first language or commonly spoken one, the FML is rather obvious. Unless of course you rarely use English in which case a forum such as FML is a poor one to frequent, judging from the grammar nazis.

******* idiot!! She got a tramp stamp that said she isnt trashy
HannahLouise96 13
To answer your question Pradip, getting 'tramp stamps' (tattoos on your lower back) is widely thought of as distinctly classless. The fact that she got a tramp stamp saying 'Always classy' is ironic.
pradip 26
No, I don't say dumb things to get thumbed down. I wasn't familiar with tramp stamp. Guess I was dumb enough to ask about it on an open community.
Ozuru 11
pradip, I like your comments because you dare to be different, you speak your mind. You don't say useless shit to get thumbs up and hijack comments to get your comment seen.
etchsanity1 11
Tramp stamp to clarify is a tattoo done on the small of a girls back... It is often called a tramp stamp because of the massive popularity of that tattoo location for generic and unoriginal designs with trashy, or loose girls. Not all lower back tattoos are tramp stamps but all tramp stamps are lower back tattoos. The difference is in the quality a cheap and poorly done or unoriginal tattoo there is a stereotypical white trash or slutty trailer park type of tattoo and a tramp stamp ... A clean and well executed piece on the other hand can simply be a back piece.

45- Once again, I apologize if I seemed insulting or offensive. I was merely questioning because of the past negative comment history. Now I feel like a bitch, and I should've worded the question more politely.
pradip 26
HotPinklipstick don't feel bad, we all say things that make someone look bad. Given my history, what you said is justifiable.
melrose90210 10
No, you had an honest question
htownpostman 16
Hotpink.. I wouldn't sweat it.. U didn't come off like a bitch at all... It's the Internet.. The easiest way to attack people
codyjohn17 5
Pradip you are awesome. I'm not gonna say crap about how you "spread your wings of glory on FML" or "you fearlessly belted out your question with no regards like you were charging into battle", BUT I do think you comment didn't warrant that much negativity.

Not at all i agree with u all the way. He is dumb.

How does it feel to be standing all alone?

Why would someone get a tattoo to prove their classiness? It's like someone liking their own status/dp to help prove their popularity.
ICastillo 25
Thats one tramp stamp she is going to regret Don't girls know lower back tattoos are just targets.
goose12321 11
She'll find out soon enough I guess.
SuperDanielNL 23
That's the point where she's no longer your daugther.
Jessiegirl122 7
Yeah, she's her daughter.

she forgot one thing. tramp stamps are the opposite of classy.

Her parents must've done crappy job. Not only stupid, but also trashy.
TallMist 32
I don't see why this comment is getting thumbed down. If the parents have any contol over what their daughter can or can't do, it's the parents' fault for letting her get the tattoo. But on the off chance that I'm wrong, I'll take this comment back.
bredahl 26
Depending on what age she got the tattoo at, and the state laws, her parents have no control. My parents strongly disapprove of tattoos, yet I have 3. No one blames them for my body art. It's my body so I do what I want to it. But if her daughter is a minor, she would most likely have to have a parent or guardian sign off on the tattoo unless she got it from some shady dude in a basement. Not only that, have you ever gone out and done something your parents didn't approve of? They didn't have control over you then, did they?
jaime1480 12
#14, you got it wrong. She's always classy, never trashy.
