Today, my piano teacher complimented my song, calling it great. I was proud and thanked him, then realized he was being sarcastic. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was at a piano lesson playing a song I had worked very hard to make perfect. Halfway through, my teacher abruptly stops me and asks, "Did you notice that I rearranged the furniture?" FML
Today, I had my final piano performance. There is a guy in my class who constantly tells me I suck at piano, so I was looking forward to watching him play badly since he never practices. Instead, he played the most beautiful music that would make Mozart weep. He got a standing ovation. FML
Today, I started recording my piano exam pieces to submit, and I was proud at my interpretation that I spent time trying to make it sound good. That was until my tutor walked in and said I had "shit rhythm and ass intonation." My mom was there. FML
Today, I was teaching a ten year old how to play piano. Halfway through the lesson, she made a minor mistake, which, trying to be a good tutor, I corrected her. She smiled up at me, paused, then slammed the key cover down onto my fingers. FML
Today, I had a piano exam. My friend noticed how nervous I was, and recommended that I compliment the examiner for higher marks. When it was time for the exam, without thinking, I told him I liked his hair. Turns out bald people don't like that. FML
Today, my piano teacher told me that she "forgot" to inform me that she volunteered me to play a 5-page song in a recital in front of 300 people that's happening next week. FML
Today, I had my high school piano recital. The entire time I was playing, one of my classmates sitting up front kept booing me and yelling "YOU SUCK" at the top of his lungs. He drowned out the entire song. FML
Today, I was happy to take a break and do a guitar performance, but my teacher was the rudest ever. He had his guitar at the front row, playing while I was, and he played the song live with me just to confuse me, and ending up ruining the performance. FML
Today, I had a test in orchestra class, which I'd practiced over 30 hours for. After I played my part, which I thought I did very well, my teacher asked how long I'd practiced. Trying to show off, I said, "Oh, just 30 minutes." My teacher said, "It shows; that was terrible." She was serious. FML
Today, I had a piano exam, for which I'd worked hard. I went in, and the examiner asked me to play some scales. I was so nervous, I played 3 octaves and then realised I'd ran out of space. I might have then said, "FUCK!" really loudly… and she heard. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should have sarcastically said, "and you are just an awesome piano teacher!"

Everyone's a critic, honey. That's what happens in the artist world.

Never trust people!

You seem a bit vague, that all people are untrustworthy or unworthy of people trust? You cannot possibly trust no-one.

I had another sentence but my phone froze and posted the first one only. By the time I noticed, it was too late to edit it. Stupid Android.

If he's teaching piano lessons then I'm pretty sure he is.

Can he be reported for being extremely RUDE and unhelpful?

"I Love You, You Love Me" does NOT qualify as a great song.
Welshite 40
It does to me... :(

Won't you say you love me too, Doc? WON'T YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME TOO?!
Welshite 40
I'll say I love you, Pleo.

With a great big hug AND A KISS FROM ME T..... Whoa. Shit just turned uhmm homoerotic? Is that a more sociably acceptable term? I was going to call it gay. But in that context, it just seems the immature and downright rude fodder of high school level mentalities.

Considering the fact that you're paying him for lessons, I'd think that he'd be a bit more nice. Weird.

Sometimes people just need to pay someone to walk behind them with a sarcasm sign. Happens to the best of us.
