Today, we watched a movie in French class. I went on a French exchange last year, so I wanted to sound all impressive and cultured for my crush who is in the same class. I said that it was my favorite movie and I couldn't wait to watch it with everyone. The movie turned out to be about incest. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was giving my crush a lift home from a mutual friend's house. When he got in the car, my mom asked in French, "Is this the guy you won't stop talking about? You can do so much better!" Of all the things I've told about him to my mom, I forgot to mention he's French as well. FML
Today, we watched a movie in class. Afterwards, the professor asked us what we thought. I raised my hand and said it was pretentious, dull and a really poor example of filmmaking. It was the movie HE spent five years writing and directing. FML
Today, my French teacher set up a role-play scenario to act out in front of the class. During one of my lines, I mispronounced a phrase and called my teacher sexy. FML
Today, I watched a movie with my little sister. I couldn't understand a word that was said during one scene, but I figured it was in some kind of made-up language. When I commented on it later, she called me a moron and said it was Spanish. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my best friend. While waiting for it to start, I went on to describe this guy I really liked and how badly I wanted to do him. Just then the girl sitting behind us leans down and says "That's my little brother. So you're the creeper he talks about." FML
Today, I went to the movies with my friend and two pretty girls. During the movie, he made out with both of them, while I sat there awkwardly and watched the movie. FML
Today, I taught my girlfriend some French. She then used her newfound language to break up with me. FML
Today, I finally worked up the courage to ask my crush to a movie. What I didn't realise is that she would bring a "friend" along, and that I would have to sit next to them making out for 2 hours. FML
Today, my two friends and I went to the movies. One of my friends brought my crush. They started making out, leaning over the armrest, until they were practically in my lap. Saliva got on my arm. FML
Today, my dad vehemently refused to let me go on vacation to France with my best friend, because he watched Taken a few months ago and apparently forgot that it's just a movie. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

And your name is "daddyslittlegirl"... I really hope that was intentional and not just the worst irony in the world. Anyway, YDI for trying to impress someone when you obviously didn't have a clue what you were doing. That's gotta be the one thing worse than trying to impress people in general - trying to impress them by *lying*.

LMFAO. That's what you get for lying. YDI.

Reason #2733424 why I don't like France: Their movies suck.

Wow, reading over all the comments, so many people are suggesting possible French movie titles about incest. Are there a lot of French movies about incest?? And in the words of Salinger: phony :P

I don't think it's such a bad thing. Surely the movie wasn't PROMOTING incest, it was just ABOUT incest. Are we not allowed to like movies about incest?

Today, I am a French movie guy. Someone didn't like my movie just because there was incest in it. It is art, you silly American!! FML!

Maybe it was Noces Blanches? I agree, can't be La Boum. La Boum is a teen movie about a 14-year-old girl who goes out with a 14-year-old guy.

Way to lie to make yourself sound better. Strike up a conversation with the guy like a normal human being.

Dumbass. Next time, look at the box, maybe? I mean, assuming you peak any French, which seems unlikely at this point. But Manon de Sources is not ABOUT incest. That's a great film, it's too bad you can't appreciate it.

I think I might have seen the movie you're talking about. It's messed up.
