Today, after getting a new haircut, I decided to take a few photos. I set up my iPhone in my room and began posing. It wasn't until numerous shots later that I realized my phone had posted every picture to Facebook, and they were all over everyone's newsfeed. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I posted a selfie on Instagram showing off my new haircut. However, I hadn't noticed that I'd forgot to switch back from my company's official Instagram account to my private account. The caption? "Feeling cute, might delete later." It stayed up for over an hour, and my future as a social media manager is up for debate. FML
Today, I took a picture of myself and put it on Facebook. After I did so, I realized that in the background, you can see my crush's Facebook page up on my laptop. He tagged himself. FML
Today, I thought it would be fun to post a throwback photo of myself in high school on Facebook. I didn't realize I was still logged into my work account. Now all my colleagues and clients have seen my awkward teenage years, complete with braces, pimples, and an unfortunate haircut. FML
Today, as I sat on the toilet, I mistakenly took a screenshot and then proceeded to fumble my phone. It wasn't until 5 hours later when I recharged it that I realized I had unintentionally posted the screenshot of me on the toilet to Instagram. FML
Today, I came home from work and turned on the computer. I logged onto Facebook and saw I had a bunch of notifications. Turns out, everyone on Facebook knew I was single before I did. FML
Today, I was using the bathroom and checking Facebook on my phone. As I'm checking my newsfeed, I noticed a new photo upload by my brother. I guess I forgot to properly shut the door to the bathroom, because it's me on the toilet. FML
Today, I took multiple pictures of my blanket and pillow pet, trying to get the "perfect pose" so I could post it on Facebook with a cheesy joke. I'm 30. FML
Today, I uploaded what I thought were beautiful selfies. One of my "friends" commented, "I've seen what your whole body looks like, so that's why you take only headshots. You're not fooling anybody, fatty." His comment got 18 likes. I took down the photos and spent the rest of my afternoon in tears. FML
Today, I tried to take a cute selfie in front of a café window. I didn’t realize there were people inside, specifically the café staff, who were watching see me posing, pouting, and flipping my hair for a full two minutes. When I finally realised they were there, they gave me the thumbs up while imitating my poses. FML
Today, I was on the toilet, when my Mom thought it would be a fun idea to barge in, take a picture of me, post it on Facebook, and tag me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Would've been awkward is those were 'special' photos for your boyfriend.

That happened to a friend of mine once 28. She had her parents on her Facebook too. If you don't want people to see it don't take them! Lesson learnt!

Or, just don't broadcast every miniscule part of your life that barely even matters to every person you know (who probably don't care in the first place) as well as several people that you probably don't know and accepted requests from anyway. That would solve a lot of problems.

#44 Something tells me that friend of yours was...You!

1, she's probably one of those people who shouldn't have a smart phone because she can't handle it. She probably doesn't even know there were settings.

Hmmm.... I dont know, Mabey if you would look, you might find out something. AN IPHONE DIPSH*T!
BulldogHoops 14
You know, 51, insulting somebody's intelligence and saying "mabey" in the same sentence is a tad ridiculous. Look in the dictionary and maybe you'll find something. "MAYBE", DIPSH*T!
press_start_bro 21
Well, Im sorry I hit the wrong button. Shoot me down!

The "y" is a full 2 letters out of place, so I think you hit more than "a wrong key." You ballsed it up. No big deal, just try harder next time.

I find it a Tad bit humorous how in the Policy Of FmyLife, it says to re-read posts before sending them out. I think it even has a warning as to if you don't, there is a chance that you will be corrected. So in a sense.. I guess people shouldn't get so vunerable over their irrelevant posts..

Try insulting someone when you can spell.

Atleast turn on airplane mode next time..
happy2468 21
Do you turn your phone on airplane mode when you take pictures?
lilhellian 27
Sometimes yes.. Usually when I take pics I'm in a place I need my battery..
shyeahh_fml 19
One doesn't generally need to conserve battery in his or her own room as a charger is most likely nearby.
whatnow430 15
Yeah, cause sometimes you want a pic from above, but you dont want to hold up the phone

I don't get it - what's the FML about this? What's so bad about having a bunch of pics her new haircut on FB?
