Today, I forgot to take my phone out of my bathing suit pocket before I went into the pool. It's not a high-end phone, so that's not why FML. The FML part is because I was on vacation, didn't have internet access, and the phone has no external memory card, so all the pictures I took while on vacation are lost. FML

Today, to keep my phone safe while I went on some rides, I took it out of my pocket so I could put it in my bag. Just as I pulled it out, a woman ran into me, knocking my phone to the ground and breaking the screen. FML

I'll call you!
Today, my smartphone fell out of my cargo shorts pocket onto the floor of my friend's car. I didn't even notice until he drove me home, where I noticed that the pocket was empty. FML

On the run
Today, I was in a hurry to catch a plane. I got halfway to the airport when I realized I'd forgotten my phone. I drove back to the house and searched for it. I finally gave up and returned to the airport, only to find that I was 10 minutes late for my plane. Just then, my pocket vibrated. FML

Mowed down
Today, I was mowing the lawn while wearing gym shorts. Because I had no pockets, I tucked my phone into the waistband of my shorts. I didn't notice my phone had slipped until the lawnmower started making an awful sound. FML

Today, I was taking my phone out of my pocket when it caught on the fabric and began to fall. I managed to catch it, but also smacked myself in the balls in the process. FML

What are the chances?
Today, I forgot my phone on the roof of my car. I took a 30 minute drive from my friend's city to my city. I got on to my driveway, surprised to see my phone still there. Thinking I'm really lucky, I pick up my phone. Then, I trip over a pebble, cracking my phone in the process. FML

Today, after working out at the gym, I went to grab my bag, and realized that my phone was missing. Panicking, I reached into my pocket, pulled out my phone, and dialed my mom's number to tell her I'd lost it. It took me until the last ring to realize what I was doing. FML

Surfs you right for not checking your pockets.

YDI. You should know better. Leave expensive electronics at home next time.

um, although it is a YDI , leaving it home is not a reasonable solution to people who need to communicate with others while out. for example, theres a number to call that tells me when buses will be at a stop, i need my phone for it.

This is why all phones should be built like the Galaxy S5.

But companies don't want their phones to be built like that. Phones breaking = buying a new phone = $$$

Why would swim trunks have pockets? You'd think you'd realize that..

I own many swimsuits with pockets in them... They can actually prove useful for carrying small, waterproof items. On multiple occasions, when I went to the pool, I put my stuff in a locker and carried the lock key with me in my pocket.

Well, the rice in a bowl trick doesn't always work, unfortunately. Hope you have a warranty, that really does suck!
