Today, I got excited when my cell phone lit up because I hadn't received a single phone call all day. Turns out it was the "low battery" indicator. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, before going to bed my phone lit up and I got all excited because I thought it was a text message. My phone was finished charging. FML
Today, I got excited when my phone vibrated because I thought someone actually wanted to talk to me. When I grabbed my phone, I realized my mind had played a trick on me and I only thought it vibrated. I'm so lonely, I subconsciously trick myself into thinking I have friends. FML
Today, for the first time in months, I got a call from a beautiful girl asking me what I was doing tonight. Then my battery died. FML
Today, my mum had no legitimate reason to have her daily yell at me, so she resorted to bitching me out for putting her phone on charge after it started beeping with a low battery warning. FML
Today, I downloaded an application that notifies me when my phone is fully charged. I had no idea how it actually functions, but I plugged the charger in and went to bed. A couple of hours later, I woke up to a man's voice screaming, "I can't take it anymore!" I nearly wet myself. FML
Today, the power went out at work. As everyone left the building to go home, the owner came in to inform me that, since the phones were on a battery back up, I would be staying to man them. The phones rang 2 times in the 4 hours I sat in the dark by myself. Both times were telemarketers. FML
Today, my phone died while I was on the phone with my girlfriend. When I finally got a charger, I saw a text message from her. I'm now single. FML
Today, I spent ten minutes looking for my cell phone in the dark, only to realize the light I was using was my cell phone's. FML
Today, I had a text message when I woke up. I was excited as I usually don't get texts from people. Turns out it was from T-Mobile. They text me more than actual people do. FML
Today, I was visiting my new in-laws for the first time. During an awkward silence, I took my phone and figured I'd send my friend a text jokingly saying "Mayday, mayday! Somebody save me!" My mood lightened up a little and I felt quite well until my mother-in-law's phone beeped. Yep. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why do you rely on others for your own happiness? Grow up!

Today, I went on FML to read some FML's. Half of them weren't even FML-worthy. FML. And before some smart ass comes by, yes, ^ that wasn't very FML worthy either, but the only thing setting me apart from the OP is i'm not going to bother posting that up since I can tell whether or not something is FML worthy or not (in fact, most people can).

I'd be lying if I said I never thought the I got a text when it was just in fact low battery. But I never got excited about it. And never then bored enough to go tell the world on FML. Your life is indeed ****** sir.. but YDI for not having a life!

Wow the commenters here are real dickheads. If this gets accepted as an FML, then it's the fault of the people moderating it for allowing it to be accepted. Stop whingeing. But yeah, OP, this really isn't a big deal to be fair. This happens to me all the time. I love it when I get a text/call/email from a friend or something. I don't actually know why. I just do! But the whole low battery thing has happened quite a few times to me too. Fairly annoying. Just because people don't text/call you regularly doesn't mean you're a loser or anything like that. It's perfectly fine. I'd rather than I never got texts/calls, and knew that I had at least good friends there who I could see in person; rather than get lots of texts/calls from random people I don't even like.
