Travel away from the sadness
Today, I was thinking about how I saw Eric from That '70s Show at an airport and never said anything to him. I still regret it. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was at a party when I saw a guy I vaguely recognized. I walked up to him and said, "Hey! Long time no see!" He looked confused and said, "Sorry, do I know you?" After an awkward pause, I realized I didn't know him at all - I had mistaken him for a character from a TV show I'm currently binge-watching. FML.
Today, I met up with an old friend of mine who acts in a TV show. I hadn't seen him in a long time, but I'd been watching episodes of the show almost daily, so when he showed up I could only see him as his TV character and not as my friend. I ended up calling him by his character's name. FML
Today, I ran into a friend I hadn't seen in a while. I swear I couldn't help it when the words "Wow, I bet you really regret that haircut." came out of my mouth. FML
Today, I was at the airport walking around, killing time. There was a man about twenty years older than me who kept on eyeballing me, and it really wasn't flattering. I get on the plane and guess who I get to sit next to. FML
Today I was walking around the mall and I saw my crush from high school. He came up to me and, instead of talking to him, I burped, and he just walked away. FML
Today, I went to the grocery store and saw a guy I thought I recognized. I walked up to him and said, “Hey, are you so-and-so from high school?” He looked at me blankly and said, “Nope, don’t know you.” To cover up my embarrassment, I blurted out, “Well, you should! I was the funniest person in our class!” He stared at me for a second before replying, “OK, I’m calling security.” FML
Today, after finally having the guts to confess to a guy I have liked for a year now and him saying he also likes me and then asking me out, I went out of my way and traveled 4 hours to meet him. He didn't show up and never apologized. I never heard anything from him. FML
Today, I talked to my crush for twenty minutes at Wal-mart. Then I realized I forgot to take off my Weight Watchers meeting nametag. FML
Today, I waved at someone across the street because I was absolutely certain they were my friend. They waved back, so I walked over. We stood there awkwardly for about ten seconds before I realized I had never seen this person in my life. Apparently they had waved at the person standing behind me. FML
Today, completely excited, I told my mom about this guy from high school that I had really liked and who had found me on Facebook. He said he regretted not asking me out in high school and offered to fly me out to visit him. Her response? "Has he seen what you look like now?" FML

He probably wouldn't have talked to you at all. Airport tends to be busy.

My Sister-in-law met Topher Grace and said that he was the meanest, entitled, self-centered jerk. By far the worst celebrity they’ve ever had at her job. She works at Walt Disney World...

Wait wait wait... you saw THE Topher Grace at an airport, and didn't speak to him? Are you ******* nuts?! This is literally the most upsetting story ever published on FML, and your cowardice sickens me to my very core. I'm kidding. It was Topher Grace. Who gives a ****? That guy helped ruin Spider-Man 3. Worst. Venom. Ever. And That 70s show was as funny as setting your genitals on fire.

**** Topher Grace! He ruined that great show.

From that casual encounter, you might have met Ashton Kutcher and gotten a cameo of "Two and a Half Men." What a waste of potential!

You are sorry about missing the guy known for the emotional range of a rice cake? You set the bar low lower enough to trip or break a toe.
