Today, as a prank, I set my wallpaper on my iTouch to a photo that makes the screen look broken. I pretended to freak out, showing my dad that it broke. Good news: My prank worked. Bad news: He threw the iTouch out the window in rage. It had 59 gigs in it. FML
I agree, your life sucks (7669) - you totally deserved it (34157)

(0)where did you get the wallpaper? is it an app? ohhh I wanna see
#7 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:03am by nastenka
(0)probably should keep that app or photo between you and your friends.

(+1)there's not even a 64gb iPod touch
only goes to 32 like the Iphone

(0)I'm sorry, but I don't completely see how this is a YDI. It was just a stupid prank that could have been easily explained. How was OP supposed to expect that his dad would react by chucking it out the window? I doubt most dads would do that.
(+1)^ Yeah I'm pretty sure it only goes up to 32.
OP - Does it still work? My Itouch died not to long ago :/
R.I.P

(-1)my friend doctored his and now it has something crazy like 120gb, voids the warranty but still pretty cool
(+1)haha 35, you shouldn't have thrown it if you got it to a dry place fast and let it dry out. it would have started working again without have you throwing it around
#44 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:27am by Volcomsmy_Lyfe
(0)volcomsmylife I am currently correcting you using my 64 gb iPod touch. the iPhone has a 64 gb version as well. unless you've been living in a cave the past two years you would know this.
(-1)Ayeeeee! These things hapen you know we can't control 'em you was just trying to have some fun but eh your ipod went ka-puts. The Fonz has spoken.
(0)FYL, this "broken screen" wallpaper is very unconvincing. Your dad is obviously a huge moron.

(0)omg I live in Virginia and the other day I was taking a walk and randomly caught an iTouch that flew out of a window... oh well finders keepers losers weepers bitch
#55 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:39am by Blink182ftw
(0)haha that's funny . I have that background but my dad would never do that ? throw my phone ? NOPE !
#61 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:43am by Ashleigh255
(0)yir an idiot everyone that thinks the itouch only goes to 32 gigs is an idiot it goes to 64 gigs since the 3rd gen came out don't believe. me check the apple website..
#63 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:44am by bowlingman157
(0)plus ipod/iphone (mostly anything with some sort of memory) are fairly easy to modify and add more memory... its all in the internet... just bing it...
#69 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:58am by Lord_Vader
(0)#31 They do make a 64GB iPod Touch. I've seen it on Best Buy's website.

(0)Ahh. Maybe I should read the previous comments...haha. ^.^
#73 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:02am by MissRachieee
(0)Why does your dad take intestest in your itouch? He should beat you if you break the itouch and on the contrary if it is a prank he should simply laugh at it and warn you not to do it again or otherwise he will slap you nexttime.
(0)the 3gen iPod doesn't have 16g, only 8g, but the 8g is not really a 3gen iPod, just a 2gen upgraded to the 3gen
(0)it's an app.... I tried that prank on my parents too. but they didn't believe it
#87 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:32am by bridawg
(0)Lol #28. That is the only Soviet Russia joke I've ever laughed at. :P
#90 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:33am by TaylorTotsYumm
(0)Well the good thing about an iPod is that all your stuff is synced with your computer. When you get a new one, just plug it in and tell it to restore your old content to your new one. it'll be just as you left it.
So I would be more upset over having to buy a new one, you didn't lose any content.
(0)Lol, right now i'm using a 64gb iPod touch..
DUMBASS

(0)ipod touches go to 64gb so dont iphones. look online or in ur nearest apple store
#178 - On 06/19/2010 at 5:47pm by sicpupyz122
(0)I did that! haha but my mom knew I was joking:/
#180 - On 06/19/2010 at 5:57pm by immaprincessmadd
(0)no they dropped the 16gb and sell the 32gb & 64gb and 8gb but that's just a repackaged 2 gen iPod touch.
(0)Haha! I did that... but when I changed it, there was a REAL crack in it... Turns out my twin cracked so I'd get in trouble for cracking my newly revived from the toilet touch... lol
#189 - On 06/19/2010 at 6:48pm by happy_dino

(0)you're a freakin' dumbass OP, my friend actually cracked my iPods screen, it still works though. :D
(0)it must of been a pretty recent ipod, because they got rid of the 16gb ones and now only have 8gb, 32gb + 64gb :) which explains all :)
(0)213 is totally hitting on MissRachie.
Op, ydi for calling it an itouch. it's called an iPod touch you idjit.
(0)am i the only one that buys my own phones and iPods?
#238 - On 06/20/2010 at 6:21am by teresa_009
(0)You are all stupid. There are 64 gig iPod touches, but they really only have 59 gigs because of system files and the difference between how computers and companies measure data.
(0)omg i hve tha 2, jst download app. wallpaper n flip throw it great
#257 - On 06/20/2010 at 6:24pm by veebabii96
(0)lol ydi for not knowing your dad well enough to know his first reaction would be blind tard rage.
(0)31 yes there is— do research before posting something stupid. evryone knows there's a 64 gig. go to apple.com and find it
#263 - On 06/21/2010 at 12:43am by inferno2080
(0)48-yeah i thot so...mines only 8 gb but i swore i saw a 64 gb in the store once...so 37-umm fail...
#265 - On 06/21/2010 at 2:07am by PurpleLlamas
(0)97-actually it goes up to 64 gb and you can add memory :)
#266 - On 06/21/2010 at 2:10am by PurpleLlamas
(0)No, you are wrong. it does come in a 64 GB version for $399.
#269 - On 06/21/2010 at 4:11pm by popcorn497
(0)no they hqve the 8, 32, or 64 gig... im on mine now. dont believe me? google

#276 - On 06/22/2010 at 12:28am by icantbelieveit1
(0)np it goes to either 8 gig 32 gig or 64 gig... i think u nd 32 are thinking first generation... cuz im on mine.... if u dont believe me google it
#277 - On 06/22/2010 at 12:30am by icantbelieveit1
(0)the 3rd wouldnt only have 8 gig idiot... ppl nreed more space its 8,32, or 64 gig ipod
#278 - On 06/22/2010 at 12:32am by icantbelieveit1
(0)uhm the iPod touch I'm using right now is 64gb so...obviously they are available at a higher capacity than 32gb.
#282 - On 06/23/2010 at 4:38am by TheApologist
(0)52- DAYUMM!!! That must have costed you an assload of cash! Haha I blew off all of my last year's x-mas money on an 8gig touch... fuuuuck:(
#286 - On 06/29/2010 at 1:13am by happy_dino
(0)MissRachiee- It is true:( You are really pretty:( I wish I was that pretty:( Lucky you:(
#288 - On 06/29/2010 at 1:19am by happy_dino
(+1)lol anything apple can be referred to as the folllowing:
i-insert verb and/or noun- here.
ex:
iHome
iMac
iFuck <-- the new entertainment system.
(0)I agree with #45. The iPad is one of the stupidest things ever thought of. All the iPad is is a much larger, more easily breakable version of an iPod with apps on it. You might as well get an actual laptop and not waste your money, since you can drop a laptop a couple of times and it stays intact. From what I've heard, once your drop an iPad, you're screwed. So, to all of you people who bought an iPad, you got ripped off(:
(+2)iTouch sounds retarded i hate when people say that....
#141 - On 06/19/2010 at 1:23pm by the_enlightened1
(+2)I moderated this one saying No because THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN ITOUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#6 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:03am by TheComputerGuy96
(0)it's a nickname, just calm down.
do you freak out this much when people go by John, when their real name is johnathan?
#72 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:00am by catherine012
(0)The John/Jonathan thing is different; the iPod touch is the correct name. There's no such thing as a correct name when the name belongs to you. I don't really care if someone calls it an iTouch. I just think they sound stupid-- like people who call the stores WalMarts or Barnes and Nobles.
#134 - On 06/19/2010 at 1:09pm by TheIrishJaneDoe
(+2)Oh my gosh it doesn't freaking matter what they call it...jeez, people with sticks up their asses here...
And maybe she had a 64 gig iPod and used 5 gigs, therefore leaving here with 59 gigs...
How about use your brains..
(+2)the correct name is iPod Touch. if you go to an Apple Store and say iTouch, they'll kick your ass
(0)And if you post online and use "iPod Touch" they'll kick your ass because the proper capitalization is iPod touch.
(+2)Crap. If you go into an Apple store and say I want an iTouch, they'll say okay. All they care about is your money, and not how far up yourself you are that you worry about what the fuck it's called.
(0)Actually when people come into my apple store and say "I want an iTouch" I repeat back to them "Oh an iPod Touch? which gigabyte model?" As an Apple employee I loathe when people say iTouch. it sounds fucking retarded.
#200 - On 06/19/2010 at 8:09pm by lendahandmanda
(0)What actually sounds retarded is giving a fuck about what it's called. It's a fucking product. Who cares. Only nerds and geeks who have one and think they're fucking special because of it. It's the same as petrol heads getting antsy because you called their car an XR instead of an XRi. Get over yourself for fuck's sake.
(0)gigs is not the plural of gb if you are on about memory size. Sorry its just one of those things that bug me. Sucks about the I touch, how was throwing it out the window going to help? If it really did have a smashed screen then yuo could have sent it to Apple and got it sorted. Can't really claim your dad throwing it out the window as accidental damage :S.
(0)No GB is the correct term. Gb would be gigabits (8 bits = around 1 Byte). And that prank sounded hilarious I'd do it but noone would care.
#57 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:41am by PoserDisposer
(-1)It's not approximated. 8 bits does = 1 byte.
4 bits = a nibble
8 bits = byte
16 bits = word
32 bits = double word
64 bits = quad word
And harddrives are measured in bits, a 120 "GB" harddrives is actually 120 Gigabits
(0)dbs is right. iPod touches don't have harddrives they use flash memory anyways.
#89 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:32am by PoserDisposer
(0)Prude! You know the term "Kilos" is used to mean kilograms, and not kilometres. So get over it.
#111 - On 06/19/2010 at 12:16pm by aardvarkish
(0)Oh noes i forgot to capitilize my B :D
I still stand by the gigs thing. It is not the same is using kilos for kilograms as kilos does not mean anything else. OP could have meant she had 59 concerts on her Itouch (gigs=concert) and not memory size at all. I can be said gig but it shouldnt be written as such, everyone has things that annoy them, what can i say hehe.
(0)OHHH that's not good! But OP deserves it for playin tricks on their dad, no one should play tricks on their daddy hehe
(0)haha that sux... I dropped mine once at school and the screen cracked ... it suked
#19 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:09am by blink_babe
(0)I'm guessing it was the 64gb cause there is no 59. always use a case, it helps!!
#25 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:15am by oceantheskater
(-1)It's not that it only has 7 where it claims to have 8, the thing is that it's actually 8gigabits which converts to less, because it takes 8 bits to make a byte.. so if you do the conversion it's less. yeah
(0)Hey goobs! I have a 32 gig iPod Touch and it started with like 31.4 because of the Apps that are pre-installed. Plus op was saying that they had 59 gigs left on it. Brother!! Bunch of geniuses on here.
(0)The iPods system files take up memory. 64 is more like 63 there's no way he has 5 GBs of system memory. And stop with the misinformation xundria.
#95 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:37am by PoserDisposer
(0)Op's saying he had 59 GBs of content on it anyways.
#96 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:39am by PoserDisposer
(0)Dumb idiots, hmm? Wouldn't that be double negative, which would cancel out, and... I believe you just called the OP and their father smart, #33. The next time you insult someone, be sure to say something that makes sense. :)
(+1)it's not a double negative, the term you're looking for is redundant
#143 - On 06/19/2010 at 1:33pm by cutenessizme
(+1)Your life sucks for having a grumpy dad an no 'iTouch'
#46 - On 06/19/2010 at 10:28am by jellybean5
(+1)the reason they are actually only 7GB instead of 8 and 59 instead of 64GB is because of software that's preloaded on there and other stuff that takes up space.
#77 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:11am by hethisistony2
(0)YDI for calling it an iTouch. It's iPod Touch, people. >_>

(0)All the people mad about it being called the iTouch or ipod Touch, neither exists, theres only the iPad nano :D
#98 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:42am by randomnameflob
(0)You're mistaken. They said their iTouch (short for iPod Touch), not iPhone. The iPod Touch goes up to 64GB (minus some for the OS and included apps, that would set it at about 59GB).
#106 - On 06/19/2010 at 12:04pm by starflight
(+1)It's iPod touch! iTouch is a whole other product that's not even made by apple. Anyway you totally deserve it
(+1)I hate it when people call the iPod touch iTouch those people are stupid, lazy and stupid. Tis all I have to say
#103 - On 06/19/2010 at 11:51am by MiamiJeanPierre
(0)it's an app smash screen lite that's not fair I've got really hot babes as my wallpaper and still waiting for something to happen
(0)Wow that's stupid of you. Hope you had everything backed up. YDI
#124 - On 06/19/2010 at 12:44pm by Taurus_ChicKa
(+1)it's your own fault for calling it an itouch when that blatently isn't it's name. it's an iPod touch
#126 - On 06/19/2010 at 12:51pm by nathan123uk
(0)This is a good point... I'm still trying to figure out in what way this prank was actually funny, anyway.
(0)31,34 - he says he had 59 gigs. I guess he is a musician and was playing somewhere & recorded it. maybe each gig was less than 1/2 GB. 'cause a gig isn't a unit of measure I've ever heard of. there's gigabytes, gigabits/second, gigawatts, gigaflops... I could go on...
(0)Thank you, that was exactly my point too. If you are going to go for storage then by all means say it as gig (no s btw) but it is ALWAYS written as GB
(0)well, "gigs" is established computer-speak for "gigabyte," but it's more spoken than written, anyway.
it IS a lot easier to type "gb," but i'm not gonna...um, gig anyone for typing "gigs," as it should be understood.
giggity giggity.

(+1)Obviously more than you, with that attitude. I haven't seen her act like a slut in any point in this FML. She was replying to someone who commented on her looks. Put up a picture of yourself before you start slating anyone else for theirs, or the comments they recieve on it.
#239 - On 06/20/2010 at 6:29am by H0llyw00dWh0r3
(0)umm how do u have 59 gig iPod touch? it's only 8/32 or 64??
#160 - On 06/19/2010 at 2:52pm by awesome_RICKY
(+1)Holy shit people. Any of you saying "OH LOL thurs no 59 gb ipod ur stoopid, its only 64 gig", please refer to comment #77.
#165 - On 06/19/2010 at 3:17pm by BonJovi821
(+1)Even though it was OP who pulled the prank, I think the dad's reaction was pretty crazy. Raging and then throwing it out the window? Sheesh, like breaking it more is going to solve the problem. o_O He must have already been having a bad day or something.
(+1)Oh my gosh it doesn't freaking matter what they call it...jeez, people with sticks up their asses here...
And maybe she had a 64 gig iPod and used 5 gigs, therefore leaving here with 59 gigs...
How about use your brains..
(+1)How the hell is this a YDI? If this post was by the dad, explaining how he had thrown a working iTouch out the window because his son had changed the wallpaper to make it look broken, it, too, would be a YDI.. you guys have a slight case of downs.
#181 - On 06/19/2010 at 5:57pm by HerpiliePurplies

bassguitar19, if you had only read the other comments before posting, (even the one right above you), you would have saved yourself from...
1) Getting your comment moderated.
2) Getting yourself a warning.
3) Looking like you don't know what you're talking about.

#199 - On 06/19/2010 at 8:05pm by HiccupAstrid
(+1)Your dad is fucking mental! Does he always throw shit out the window when a bit of it that could easily be sent back and replaced under warranty gets broken? Fucking hell...
#204 - On 06/19/2010 at 8:44pm by BritishHobo
(-1)um there's no such thing as an iPod touch over 32gb. nice try though.

(0)fyl indeed I feel your pain my crazy ex boyfriend threw my g1 out of anger it no longer works right now I'm stuck with a crappy motorola :/
(0)This is so stupid cause that picture that you set as a wallpaper that makes it look cracked looks so incredibly fake that this whole FML is either fake or your incredibly stupid for thinking that it even looks cracked and able to have someone else believe it's cracked.
(0)actually, the ipad isn't a waste of money, depending on what you need it for etc. I guess it may be a waste for you, but I know several people who find the ipad was a good buy.
#222 - On 06/20/2010 at 2:05am by hannahrawr24
(-2)just for calling it an itouch you deserved that an worse. that is not it's fucking name and if you can't learn it's proper name you don't need one. also, did you expect him to find you breaking something so expensive funny?you have too much tome on your hands and obviously no good ideas I. how to use it.
(+2)You can't even fucking write correctly, and you're getting uptight because someone called a fucking piece of equipment by the wrong name!

(+2)Dagnabbit ! All you young whippersnappers bragging about your iPhones & iPods, & iThis & iThats! Why, in my day, we had a slate and a piece of chalk. You could write stuff, do 'rithmatic & draw pictures. Then wipe the slate clean & start again. Never had to charge it's battery, either!
Didn't need no gigs of anything or fancy Internet to communicate. Just a good old quill pen & a bottle of ink.
Bah! All this blabbing has done tired me out--gonna go sit in my rocking chair on the front porch & do a bit of whittlin'.

that's the next level. consider yourself warned.

#249 - On 06/20/2010 at 1:37pm by TheNewGuy03
(0)He threw it out the window because he was surprised you are so stupid thinking it's an "iTouch". I would have thrown it too.
(0)Yes, you can call me an idiot for it, but I've thrown my iTouch at a wall several times as hard as I can. Also, I've stepped on it, dropped it, and put it underneath the leg of a chair I then sat on, on purpose. And, guess what happened? There isn't a single scratch on it! YDI for pulling that stupid prank. But, it works fine don't complain!
(0)Actually the highest iTouch is 64. But, anyways I forgot to add. A kid on my bus lost theirs months ago. They found it about one month ago in a bucket of water. It still worked perfectly! Don't complain....and I'm not positive if the highest is 64. I think it's probably higher....
(0)to b honest !!! i would die if that happened to me xD i just
#284 - On 06/24/2010 at 7:52pm by ninjacupid
(0)Honestly, Just for the simple fact that you do not know the correct name for the iPod Touch you totally deserve it. If you don't know the name of it, you probably shouldn't have it.
#290 - On 07/04/2010 at 3:15am by foreverisfatal
(0)It's your own damn fault. Don't be complaining that your prank worked and it backfired on you. You did this to yourself. Think before you act.
(0)dumbass it's called an iPod touch not an itouch and they only go up to 32 gigs which is really 31 gigs you deserve it for getting that stupid app and being incompetent
