Today, I was alone with a work acquaintance at lunch. A noise came from his pocket; he whipped out his iPod Touch and said "Sorry, I have to take this," before walking away with the iPod to his ear. Not only did he not want to talk to me, he thought I was stupid enough to confuse an iPod with a phone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my "friend" came over. I caught him trying to steal my iPod on the way out. Proud of myself for catching him, I asked him to leave, only to realize that I had forgotten to actually take the iPod back from him before he left. FML
Today, my crush was walking up to me and I put my earphones in, playing hard to get. When I heard him say something about a date I take an earphone out and say, "Oh, I didn't see you there!" His response, "They're not connected to anything," holds up the end of my earphones and walks away. FML
Today, I told a customer at the drive-thru I couldn't hear him as he had his music blaring too loud. The customer then drove to the window and verbally abused me for listening to my iPod at work. My "iPod" is the headset we use to take orders at the drive-thru. FML
Today, I saw my friend at the mall. He didn't see me, so I called him to say "Turn around." He took one look at his phone, snorted loudly enough for me to hear from way off, and put it back in his pocket. FML
Today, I met a hot guy at a club and we really hit it off. We went back to his place and we got down to business. After, I noticed he had an iPod Touch on his nightstand. I complimented him on it and he responded with, "Yeah, my girlfriend gave it to me as an anniversary present." FML
Today, I handed my friend his phone, telling him he'd forgotten it. He responded by taking his phone out of his pocket and showing it to me. I then realized I was holding MY phone. FML
Today, I went out for lunch with one of my co-workers. After work, I talked to one of my friends about how unpleasant the lunch was with him. My co-worker was standing behind me listening in the whole time. FML
Today, I was going to the bathroom at work. Since I knew it would take a while, I brought my iPod in for entertainment. To bad it disabled me from hearing the continuous knocks on the door as well as the manager eventually picking the lock and busting in. FML
Today, I was sitting on the train when some crazy man started talking to me. I ignored him, and he tapped on my shoulder. He started blabbing and I just pointed to my ears and mouthed, "I'm deaf." He stopped talking. A minute later my phone rang and I answered it without thinking. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because his iPod app said I was cheating. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Also, the iPod Touch, when connected to a Wi-Fi signal, can act like a phone with programs like Skype.

as someone who went from having an iPod touch to an iPhone, I can assure you thy it's easy to tell them apart. iPod touches have a shiny silver finish while old iPhones have a matte silver finish. 3G's are black or white. plus their basic shape is different from the iPod. ipod touches are thinner and wider. iPhones are thicker and not as wide. plus they have the headphone Jack at the top whole iPods hve it at the bottom. Also the silent/loud switch on phones and the speaker at the top of the screen.

ill take that bet cuz you werent smart enough to see that the OP is a MALE from AUSTRAILIA. which is important cuz i work for att and last i knew you cant get the iPhone there. so to all people saying it has to be an iPhone you all could be wrong. and trust me its not that hard to tell the diff between the 2 even from across the room

When was the last time you checked? Because the last time I checked just about everyone in Australia who can afford it (and wanted one) has a iPhone, please do your research. Even if we couldn't buy the iPhone in Australia the people desperate enough would get one of ebay.

@107 we've had iPhones in Australia for over a year. We also have them for many different phone companies, so I don't know why you're bleating on about yours. There's variety & market competition. I'm not stuck with one shitty company & one shitty deal.

@107 - you're a tool. Australia totally has iPhones. And even the internet, so we can order stuff from overseas if we want it bad enough. You know, we also have electricity and running water. So you can tell your company, whoever they were, that they need to check their info. Because they are wrong. Or maybe it's just you. Either way.... >>>>>FAIL.

Wow, you can't get iPhones in Australia? I'll have to tell that to all my friends and my husband who have iPhones. I live in Australia, btw. (Just in case you're too thick to notice sarcasm: iPhones are most DEFINITELY available in Australia and have been for AGES.) And to everyone saying "he could have just got one on eBay"... an Australian usually can't buy an iPhone from another country off eBay easily because they're usually locked to the foreign network, so you'd have to get someone else in that country to buy it for you, unlock it from the network, then send it to you. But of course as any Australian knows, you can walk into any phone shop and buy an iPhone... or buy it on eBay from an Australian seller!

#106: It is hilarious that you're calling out other people for not being smart when you spelled Australia wrong, and wrote something that can hardly be called English.

Either is was really an iPhone, a newer iTouch with Skype, or the guy was a douche. Take your pick.

Coulda used a VOIP software on the iPod Touch, or it coulda been an iPhone. They do look an awful lot alike.

there is an app on the ipod touch that you can schedule a fake call. i have that app, i've used it before!! so maybe the coworker just doesn't like you, or it could very possibly be an iphone and you didn't pay enough attention.
