Today, my professor spent the entire class showing us how to make paper airplanes. I pay over 40 grand a year for college. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my stick figure drawing passed as homework during my doctoral level seminar. I'm paying over two thousand dollars for this course. FML
Today, my college professor handed every student a note card and told us to rate his looks from 1 to 5. Is this what I pay $20,000 a year for? FML
Today my college professor told me that I ask him too many questions. Apparently, my college tuition fee doesn't include learning. FML
Today, I bought my very first college textbook. I received a stack of hole-punched papers. My $195 "book" isn’t even bound together. FML
Today, I found out that I chose a wrong class and my 30-page paper worth 10 credit points that I wrote for that class is basically worthless now, and my graduation might be postponed another semester just because of that. FML
Today, my teacher made the class do Origami. As a disabled and very ham-fisted individual, I was the only one who struggled, while everyone else seemed to get it effortlessly. I started getting extremely upset as it just did not work, and the teacher would not understand just how impossible it is for me. FML
Today, in my architecture class, my professor's lecture consisted of a list of movies and books which feature characters who are architects. I couldn't leave because I needed the attendance points, and it lasted 45 minutes. I paid out of state tuition for this. FML
Today, my professor handed me back a paper I spent hours hours working on. At the bottom in red it said "D" followed by, "That was a gift." FML
Today, I found out that I have to take a weekly workshop outside of class time all semester, and it's only offered on the day I have the most work hours. I barely make ends meet as it is, but the professor said to figure it out or fail. FML
Today, I drove to my college campus for my 8 a.m. class, parked, walked the mile and a half to my classroom, just to find out class had been cancelled. The prof didn't send an email because she couldn't remember her password. I paid $1200 to be taught by this woman, who has a doctorate. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for going to college. Everyone knows all you need to learn is on Wikipedia.

Maybe you don't want to go to college because you can't handle it.

Actually not wikipedia 1/2 the time it's too mainstream. But honestly you can definitely learn more when you self educate yourself nowadays than in a college. Textbooks are written in a way called deconstructionism, where they (the writer's of txt books) try to progressively de-educate the public. Do you know ALL the states AND capitals,ALL Canadian provinces, ALL country's in Africa, and who controversially may have won the revolutionary war? (It was a black spy). did you know in west Virginia the first slave owner was a black man owning a white man, I doubt it.

Sometimes, it's okay for something you're spending forty grand on to be fun

Well, they're better than real airplanes anyway, they are quick and easy to make, and doesn't even require fuel!

My professor made us watch Mr. Bean videos constantly and then write a whole sentence about it. This was for an advanced writing course. I dunno, I think I'd rather learn to make paper airplanes...

Why not? Its not like you lose interest in everything non-academic if you become a professor.

Quit your complaining! Most college students would kill for an easy A. You're upset that you can't work your ass off?
