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.

Queen is horrid. I applaud her for not knowing who they are. They were the Ke$ha of their time. Extermination necessary.

You cannot be serious with comparing Queen to Ke$ha. Ke$ha is mindless pop which, personally, makes me question how record companies can even consider signing these kind of people. Queen is a classic band who I'm sure most people would choose over Ke$ha any day. Clearly, you are one of those people who doesn't appreciate the classics.

Freddie would be ashamed of these fat bottomed girls.

At least songs back in the day were all written in the mind of a creative band member. Now they're written by 6 or 7 songwriters for hours until the singer ***** it up in the end (I'm looking at you Rihanna!)

Don't mind Queen's music at all. But how in the world do you ask who her favorite band member is before even establishing whether or not she likes or even knows the band first?

I am so lucky I was exposed to all kinds of music as a child! Poor girl, I feel more sorry for her than anything, time to expose her to some amazing music OP!

So what not everyone knows who they are that doesn't mean anything. Get over yourself op.
