Today, a friend told me over MSN that her father had died. Trying to express some solidarity, I went to send her a tearful smiley. I accidentally sent her the dancing pig animation instead. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Over the rainbow bridge
Today, my friend informed me that his dog died. Hoping to cheer him up, I sent him a random meme. My dumb ass mistakenly sent him a meme about dead dogs. FML
Emoji etiquette
Today, my coworker texted me about her grandmother passing away. I meant to send a sad face but accidentally sent the party hat emoji. Now she probably thinks I was celebrating her grandma’s death. FML
Today, I was talking to my crush on MSN. She was telling me how her friend had passed away recently. I had two chats open and accidentally replied, "That's hilarious." FML
Today, I was texting a friend of mine. She mentioned it was her dad's birthday. I typed, "Tell him 'Happy Birthday' from me!" and as I pressed send, I remembered her dad was dead. FML
Treacherous smileys
Today, I added the wrong reaction to a Facebook post, using the laughing smiley instead of the hug, and only noticed two hours later, when my friend wouldn't talk to me because she thought I like found the fact that her dog died funny. FML
LOL
Today, I texted my friend and asked her what her sad status on Facebook was about. She texted me back, saying her step-mother had passed away. I tried to reply with "awwh" but my phone autocorrected it to "ahaha." FML
Scarred for life
Today, I meant to send a spicy message to my partner, but sent it to my dad due to the Whatsapp conversations being next to each other on my computer screen, and me not paying attention due to being an idiot. My dad replied, “Uh... not sure I needed that mental image.” FML
Today, I texted a friend offering my condolences over the death of his grandfather. He hadn't been told his grandfather had died yet. FML
Thoughts and prayers
Today, my best friend was texting me about her sick dog. She wrote, "Do you think she will get better?", so I wrote, "I hope she does." It wasn't until later that I realized I accidentally wrote, "I hope she dies" instead. FML
Today, my good friend who just had a baby girl sent her newborn's pictures to me via picture message. To reply, instead of writing "Awwwwww" I wrote "Ewwwwww" by mistake. FML

It may have cheered her up. You never know. P.S., why would you send a "cheerful smiley" to cheer her up?

Use your words, not some lame assed emoticon meant to express feeling. A lot more can be said with an "I'm so sorry" than just a ":'(" which to me, says "I don't give a ****."

perhaps a tearful smile was not the right choice. to get your point across i suggest something more direct, like 8=D.

a penis? noooo if you must, make the nose larger so it's more recognizable, like this: 8=======D and nice eyes Jumber.

Don't worry. If life gives you a dancing pig on your computer, give the blame to someone else.

And your first thought wasn't to ring them up and talk with them because?

Perhaps because the OPs friend lives far away and international calls are very expensive? Don't try to be presumptuous and on some kind of moral-pedestal when you don't know the full scope of the situation. A logical person would assume that since the OP's friend brought it up on MSN - and didn't call the OP - that must be their major means of communication.
