Today, I decided to start running to stay fit. Before I left, I put my cell phone in my sweat shirt pocket, and jumped vigorously up and down and ran around my apartment to make sure it wouldn't fall out. On a bridge, it slides out of my pocket and drops fifteen feet into the water below. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I decided to start jogging again for the first time in months. I made it one block before tripping over the curb. I fell so hard, my phone flew out of my pocket and hit a parked car, setting off its alarm. I ran off when I saw house curtains all around me start to twitch. FML
Today, I was excited about my new fitness tracker that I decided to go for a run to test it out. Midway through, I looked down and realized I'd forgot to turn it on. FML
Today, I decided I would finally get up and weed our front yard. After a long couple of hours, I was hot and sweaty and decided to jump in the pool, with all my clothes on, just for fun. Right as I was in the air doing a cannon ball, my BlackBerry started to ring from my pocket... FML
Today, I was finishing up at the gym and packed my bag to come home. I set my phone on top of it for a second as I knelt down to tie my shoes. Less than a minute later, I grabbed my bag to walk out, forgetting that it was on top. It tumbled to the ground and smashed. Guess I need a new phone. FML
Today, I went surfing, got a few rides, then realized I had my phone in my pocket. FML
Today, I tripped on a rock, fell in a pond, and lost my phone. All while dressed as a banana for a charity run. FML
Today, I was wearing a skirt, and running towards a closing elevator, making it just in time. As soon as I ran in, my pad fell out of my underwear and onto the floor. There were 6 other people in the elevator. I picked it up before I realized I had nowhere to put it, so I held it. For 18 floors. FML
Today, I came home from work and had to pee so badly that I ran to the bathroom and ripped my pants down. My touch screen phone dropped from my pocket and started calling my boyfriend. Since I couldn't quite reach the phone, I left a message of me peeing on his cell. FML
Today, while on the treadmill, my iPod fell and shot out underneath my feet. I got off to get it, and when I tried to get back on, I slipped and fell on my face on the moving track. The whole gym watched me get beat up by a treadmill and clapped when I finally got back on. FML
Today, I went for a run to get in shape for the first time in ages. I put on my running shoes and hit the pavement. Halfway through, the sole of one shoe came off, and I had to hobble back home in embarrassment. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

SUICIDAL CELL PHONE

I don't even take my phone to work most of the times. Why on earth would you need it while you're exercising?

No need to bring a cell phone running. No need whatsoever.

I'll never understand why people think they need their cellphones with them every living minute.

A little presumptuous, aren't we? Since it seems like she was going out by herself, it was probably a good idea. I'm going to take a shot in the dark here and say she wasn't bringing it to text her friends. When I carry my phone on my runs, I carry it more because I do get followed by creeps once in a while and like to feel a little prepared. K, I'm done. Here, let me give you a boost back up onto that high horse of yours.

Well, fat lot of good her all-important lifeline is doing her at the bottom of the creek she dropped it into. Looks like she's fair game for murderers, rapists and grizzly bears. Oh my. How ever will she survive without a phone? 8o Oh, and 38? You can bite my ass if you can leap that high.

Internet logic... When you can't argue a point resort to sarcasm and ad hominem. Fml keeps my faith in humanity realistic.

Why go running with your cell phone. Take a moment to step away from it. Put some earphones in and don't worry about the stupid cell phone for 30 minutes out of your day.

people here are unreal. if i had a way to carry my phone, i definitely would - especially as a female. you never know if something bad will happen or if an emergency will occur. it's definitely just safe having your phone on you. my mom used to carry pepper spray when she ran - it's all about safety. people assuming you brought it bc "you can't live w/out it" are ridic.

running in sweats? Are you looking for an excuse to go to the ER? IF you are running properly wearing sweats should kill you from dehydration.

sweats are only used to raise your core temp. when warming up.
