Today, my friend and I were discussing music bands, and I asked who her favorite Queen member is. She looked at me like I was from another world and said, "I don't have a favorite British queen. That's like, so weird." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to explain to a friend that the show writers for Glee did not write "Bohemian Rhapsody" and that Freddie Mercury did not steal the song from them. We're both 17 years old, and she reacted by kicking a chair at me. FML
Today, I realised I like Britney Spears. FML
Today, I saw a girl wearing a Nirvana shirt. Since Nirvana has been my favorite band for a long time, I tried striking up a conversation with her. Turns out she doesn't even listen to them, and only bought the shirt because she "liked the smiley face." FML
Today, my mom mentioned how she loves a certain actor's "British" accent. I couldn't help but mention that there's no such thing, and that there are lots of different accents in Britain. She got pissed and lectured me for "lying" to her and trying to make her feel stupid. FML
Today, my dad forbade me from playing or listening to Queen because Freddie Mercury was gay. FML
Today, I had a conversation about how Victoria Beckham ate fruit salad for her birthday, as if it was an important subject. FML
Today, I went to Britney's concert. About halfway through the show, the person next to me turns to me and asks, "Can you do me a favour?" Thinking that she wanted me to look after her stuff, I said sure. Her next sentence was: "Can you stop singing?" FML
Today, I had to explain to my housemate that the cast of "The Crown" is not the real Royal Family impersonating themselves. FML
Today, my date and I were getting to know each other, and we talked about our favorite music. He's into metal. Trying to impress him, I mention I like metal too. He said his favorite band is “The Gonzorks” and I mentioned that's my favorite too. He looked at me dead and cold and said “Um, actually that band doesn't exist.” FML
Today, a lady told me I looked like Paul McCartney in his youth. With that little confidence boost, I told my girlfriend. I'm not sure what's worse, the fact that she didn't know who Paul McCartney is, or how she is now obsessively Googling pictures of him and is practically drooling. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Nice username, I feel the same way. And Freddie Mercury had an awesome voice.

Haha, OP's username says it all..**** every one of them! They wouldn't know good music if a treble clef was shoved up their ass.

I beg to differ. I like Justin Bieber. I think he has good music & good songs. But I'm also a fan of The Beatles, Queen, Marilyn Manson, Asking Alexandria, BFMV & several 80s rock bands. & we all know how good the 80s music was. Just because we like a certain singer that you may not be a fan of, doesn't mean that all of our taste in music is bad. Just Saying...

All right, no-one feed the troll, okay? Just thumb #33 down and move on. Stay cool.

Right, 34. Absolutely right!

I think Bieber's music is a good laugh. Certainly not the music I prefer to listen to. I did grow up with classic rock, and love much of the current rock as well. But I am very diverse with my music choices. I don't see why people hate on the kid so much though. His music isn't good. That's all there is to it!

The reasons Justin Bieber does not have good music and is not a proper musician: •He uses autotune to correct his singing, where is the authenticity in that? •He doesn't write his own music, his producers do. •The music he "writes" has almost no meaning. Most people don't hate on Justin because he's famous, they don't respect him because he's not a proper musician. (This could be said for some other modern musicians). I don't mind if people like him, just don't tell me he has good music.

See, I have a huge problem with people putting other down for their taste in music! What's good for one, isn't good for the other.

Although Justin Beiber isn't a "musician" I like, I don't think this person was trolling. Just stating their opinion. Everyone has different tastes. I think everyone should be able to listen to what they like.

But they would know if it were a tenor clef.

I like Justin's songs and I'm not saying his music is godly. I like it cause it's catchy. But I also love classic rock, so don't make a generalization about all fans of JB because then your acting about as ignorant as the people you're putting down.

Trick question...The Queen doesn't have a "member!"
perdix 31
The answers are Elizabeth I and Brian May. That ought to stir some lively debate.

Lady Jane Grey! *hipster glasses*

Doesn't everyone have a favorite British queen? Queen Elizabeth II is pretty hardcore, what with parachuting at the opening Olympics ceremony and all. ;) (Yes, I read there was actually a stunt double. Still...)

Hey, you like Homestuck!

Yes, Elizabeth II is definitely the best! I'm sure she would have actually jumped from the helicopter except if she died she wouldn't make it to her 70th year of reign, but it's the thought that counts.

She should at least know Freddie Mercury. Everybody knows Freddie Mercury.
rachelita2107 5
Who that? Lmao
Kiki242 19
You're joking right? If not then I guess I was wrong. :( everybody doesn't know Freddie Mercury.

I don't but then again I don't like Queen. If you don't like something there is a possibility of not knowing all too much because of lack of interest...music snobs are music snobs I suppose. People need to quit freaking out.
Kiki242 19
I understand but Queen is legendary. They're people who don't like TLC but still know Left Eye.( 2 different genres and eras I know but that's who I could think of)

I don't want to live on this planet anymore..

I heard Mars is nice.

This must be like, the most devastating moment of your life, OP. How dare someone not know about/like the same things you like. I, too, like Queen though, so don't worry.

Wanna try saying the first two sentences on a bacon FML?

Better yet, a Nutella FML.

Freddie Mercury remains the best rock singer of all time. Discuss.

My favorite part about him was that molestache of his.

No discussion necessary.

And this is why I'm glad my parents played classic rock music around me.
