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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

See, what's happening is that the people from You Tube (the lowest form of the internet) are coming here and spamming their shitty comments and bad grammar. So I agree, they should go die.

I'm surprised so many of these types of FMLs get through. YDI for depending so much on others, tbh. You should be figuring out new interests and hobbies instead of chatting about nothing important with your friends, so you can find something more meaningful to do with your time (although visiting this site is only a little better, unless you can make the most of it). If you're in a relationship, that's different; you CAN expect to hear from them, at least. ORR, pick up the phone and call a friend yourself. It's sad to see when people expect more from others than they do from themselves.

Mein gott. I get one call every few weeks (then again I am anti social) - but seriously, you can't live without getting a phone call a day? GTFO.

actually, being antisocial is characterized by deceit and manipulation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisocial_personality_disorder) You'd be either avoidant (more or less afraid of social situations) or schizoid (uninterested). I used to be really avoidant (or shy, if you prefer), but I'm starting to get over it.
