Today, I heard a girl say, "Darth Vader is that black guy from Star Trek, right?" FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was told that I looked like a Kardashian by a total stranger. Flattered, I asked which one. His response? "I don't know, the ugly one." FML
Today, my coworker pointed to our nervous new intern and asked who he was. I jokingly said, "Can't you tell? He's our new slave." I then quickly realized how bad that sounded, given the intern is black. FML
Today, I was jumped and savagely beaten to the ground by a group of six-year-olds wearing Disney princess masks. FML
Today, I found out that my dad is actually my uncle, and vice-versa. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend of two years has a beautiful daughter. That's cool, except she's one year old. FML
Today, a guy punched me in the subway for staring at his girlfriend. I had dark glasses on, and was fast asleep. FML
Today, my 5-year-old son made a drawing of our living room, with the addition of an apparition, and the text, "I can see you. Daddy doesn't see you. Who are you?" FML
Today, as I waited to fly home, a very attractive woman smiled and gestured towards the seat next to me. However, a hyperactive child and his mother barged past into said empty seats. The woman really hit it off with the guy behind, while I was stuck listening to a kid scream at Angry Birds. FML
Today, I was watching a movie on TV. One of the characters has the same name as my dog, and when his name was called, my dog got so excited that he jumped face-first into my TV. FML
Today, I was arguing with my dad. I called him a geriatric fool. He replied with, "Well at least I know who my biological father is." I have no idea if he's joking. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Uh oh, you overhead someone say some harmless comment that didn't even concern you. How the hell is this an FML?

So? She's just not into the whole sci-fi deal. Get over it, move on with your life.

Seriously. I love Star Wars and Star Trek but they're not worth making an FML over.
MidnaLink 35
Especially not over someone COMPLETELY unrelated to you. That is more of a "Get My Head Out Of My Ass" moment.

Yeah, f your life that not everyone is into that stuff.

Isn't he?..

Yes and no. He is voiced by James Earl Jones but portrayed by David Prowse.

No. Darth Vader is from Star Wars. VERY different from Star Trek. Two entirely different worlds.

He does wear an all-black exoskeleton thing for most of the movies, right? Game of telephone, "black armor" turns to "black." That, or it's an inside joke. Also... why does it matter to your life if someone isn't into Star Wars?

Their point was that they referred to it as Star Trek instead of Star Wars. Oh no! Heaven forbid.

First world problems so very, very much.

Unless her comment gave you cancer, you didn't really need to make an FML about it.

Stop associating everything with race. Darth Vader is black.
RinoaHeartilly 36
The point of the FML isn't about race, it's about someone confusing Star Wars with Star Trek. Still extremely trivial, but not about race despite what so many people here seem to think.

So is 'black' getting banned altogether now? Part of making the entire world one gigantic safe space for people stuck in a state of perpetual adolescence.

How did you get to that conclusion? I don't think the FML is about the fact that she used the word black

The irony is so delicious when the people whining about "safe spaces" are the ones overreacting over nothing.
