Today, my science teacher decided not to recommend me for an honors science class for next year. The reason? Last week, I made the mistake of asking whether spray tans give vitamins in the same way as the sun. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a science test. A question asked, "What is the first stage of photosynthesis?" I didn't know, so just trying to be light-hearted, I wrote, "The plant must first believe in itself." My teacher didn't think it was funny, and gave me detention for insulting her intelligence. FML
Today, during science, my friend thought it would be funny to pour corrosive acids into the reaction test I was making. I had to explain to my parents why I have no eyebrows, but the worst part is that I only got a D. FML
Today, as a science teacher, I did a science experiment in front of a class. One of my students asked me if it was "photoshopped." He was being serious. FML
Today, I asked my college chemistry teacher for some much-needed help. Instead of explaining anything to me, she scoffed that if I don't understand something, I should "just Google it." FML
Today, although I received a good grade for my science project, it was disqualified for the science fair that I'd hoped to enter. A beautiful scale model of our solar system was ruined by the Cro-Magnons in one of the other classes; I found pieces of it scattered all over the classroom. The teacher did nothing. FML
Today, my math teacher decided to use my acne as an example of symmetry in front of the whole class. FML
Today, I was called a wimp for getting a sunburn. FML
Today, my math teacher decided to give everyone in the class candy. He skipped me, and when another student pointed it out, his response was, "I don’t like her." FML
Today, a student set me on fire while I was lecturing my class about proper lab safety. FML
Today, I was taking a biology final and was just randomly tapping my pencil. My teacher thought I was somehow communicating with the person next to me, and decided to fail me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Yes, they do. The orange color comes from smashed carrots, and your skin absorbs the nutrients. Come on now. That's common knowledge.

Really? Now they're f-in with your education. All because of an inquisitive question.

Well, many lotions and products do have vitamins that aid skin care, so it's not completely stupid, like your teacher thinks. I think your teacher is being a bit harsh. If you have the grades and you can get your work done well, one dumb question shouldn't cancel that. FYL

Opposed to everyone saying 'but lotions do have vitamin e' yea and it's been proven those vitamins do dick-all. Stupid question, OP, I'm sorry, but that's a really stupid question.

Could you imagine another kids FML if you did get the recommendation? "Today, another student was recommended an honour class position over me, what's so bad? I study hard every day and get perfect grades.... He thinks you can absorb nutrients from spray tans like the sun FML"

You're stupid

As a freshman that knows better, and you're probably near this age, I gotta say it's a dumb question. And yes, dumb questions exist.

I'm pretty sure the reason was because you're retarded and that that was just an example of the retardation.

Sounds like your teacher made a good call.

Your "science" teacher is an idiot. Your body absorbs all types of things from the environment. In fact, ask your teacher if he knows what a topical medication is.. Actually don't he might fail you.. But he is an idiot.

You have got to be kidding. I hope you are joking...
