Today, I got woken up by a text from an unknown number at 3 am saying, "haha I found your number." I ignored it and tried to go back to sleep. After hours of trying to fall asleep, my drowsiness was disturbed by another text from the same person saying, "Sorry, wrong number." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I crawled into bed at 2 in the morning. At 6 am, the telephone rang, waking me up. It was a wrong number. FML
Today, I received a text from an unknown number that read, "I love you." Thinking it was my partner being sweet, I responded with a long, sappy message about how much they mean to me. Turns out, it was a wrong number. The person responded with, "Um, thanks but I think you have the wrong number." FML
Today, when I woke up I checked my phone for messages, only to hear a woman screaming that I have been sleeping with her husband and that she is sending her 'people' after me. I have never met said husband. I panicked for hours, only to receive a call telling me she had dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, I chatted to a nice guy and gave him my number. I told him I was going to sleep because I had a headache, and then put my phone on silent. He rang multiple times, and when I obviously didn't pick up, he sent several texts insulting me and calling me gutless for not responding. FML
Today, I was playing with my phone after midnight, and I kept getting calls from a withheld number. The guy just breathed heavily and wouldn't speak. When the third call came, I asked, "Who the hell are you?" The call ended, and my dad yelled from outside my door, "ME! Now go to sleep!" FML
Today, I woke up to 20 unread messages from my friend asking why I sent her stuff like, “I hate you” and “Get lost” at 3 a.m. Turns out I sleep-texted during a nightmare. Now I have to grovel and apologize for something I don't even remember doing. FML
Today, I took a call. Wrong number. A few seconds later, they called back and I told her that she had the wrong number. She said she just hit redial and didn't understand how she got me again. I tried to explain how redial works. She called me a moron and hung up. Then my phone rang again. FML
Today, I had a hour long conversation with someone I apparently was friends with a few years ago. I couldn't remember who he was for the life of me, so I just played along. Finally, I told him I didn't remember him. He had the wrong number. I had a long conversation with a wrong number. FML
Today, I decided to sleep in since I didn't really have anything I had to do. I was woken up at 10:30AM thanks to a spam telemarketer. I turned my phone off and went back to sleep, hoping to wake up around noon. I woke up at 1:30PM. FML
Today, I was having a beautiful lucid dream when a telemarketer called at 5AM, waking me up. I silenced my phone and went back to sleep, and was somehow able to resume my lucid dream. Then my phone vibrated me awake. It was the same telemarketer, this time calling at 7AM. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's when you reply, "shut up before I send my garden gnomes after you."

Don't you wish phones had a feature which could 'silence' the ring/message tone?
anorexicbarbie 8
Phones do have that feature... Or you could..y'know turn off your phone. I just put mine face down on this dresser thing next to my bed and the texts are silent but the alarm is on.

If people read their phone manuals they would know that most phones come with options to silencing messaging, incoming calls and alarms separately, leaving on only the one that's most important to you.

uh, why are you on the Internet then?
ollierobs 0
Not by choice boners, but because you broke the Internet with your sarcasm.
EnEl_Infierno 15
-33 you sure you're in the Pacific and not on candy mountain? Popping them skittles and txting people you don't know at 3 am.
whitetail518 4
So....you hate technology, but you have an iPod that obviously has Internet access because you're commenting on here...that's not contradicting at all.

82 doesn't know boners and/or is to literal. OR I don't get the joke

naw 27, good comprehension skills. @OP nobody cares about your first world problems...
yamatelle 19
I'm just....so sorry. I woke up this morning from a drunken night I couldn't remember and your number was list as "bathroom *******" on my phone. I wanted some ass but didn't know how to approach you about it.

And #27 totally does not understand the tone that was being taken :P On another note...I'm not really sure why this is a FML. Somehow I doubt you took multiple hours to fall back asleep. I also doubt the moderators ability if they let this through. Who cares! It's one day out of (hopefully) a long life! Good luck getting a full 8 hour sleep in college...

Turn it off or at the very least turn off all sounds.

Failing to see the big deal here.

to be honest, at least it wasn't a stalker...

@#83: Do you want me to wake you up multiple times during the night, ruin your sleeping pattern, and make you feel like Jame Gumb's balls for the rest of the day? Would you see the problem then?

Then release the army upon the world?
saIty 17
We can leave that to Dr. Doofensmirfz to kill them all.
eminemchick 19
****** doofenschmirtz wont do it right. you see how he treats perry, just completely spilling his plot before hand!
saIty 17
Ah, however I know how to get rid of Perry. It involves the British kid, 5000 ninjas, and peanut butter.

I'm listening go on

i would send my mage and unicorn armies after that bitch
saIty 17
It's quite simple actually. Kidnap Ferb to attract Perry. Then use your 5000 ninjas to capture Perry. Yes you'll need that many ninjas. Then suck your PB as you enjoy your victory.
eminemchick 19
sounds good. leave ferb with me, just tell him i'm vanessa;)

Sometimes you need an alarm to wake up in the morning and it doesn't sound if it is on silent.
SteveTheJanitor 6
Use an alarm clock then
sambam_454 0
Can't afford it ):
anorexicbarbie 8
Turn on airplane mode, you won't have signal but you'll be able to keep your sound on to hear the alarm.
stacianichole 2
Or set text alerts to silent...there are ways around this...
ckr911 5
There is an "alarm only" choice on most phones, too
JustBlackPlease 2
Airplane mode indeed. Research has shown that if you put your phone next to your head while you sleep, the waves and stuff will keep you away from sleep for about one hour per night!!
Killerturtle 11
Wow, I never knew that! My sleep has been terrible these past few days. I've been sleeping with my cell under my belly, so that may be the reason... I'm gonna try that tonight
glitterypink 0
Mine does. Every mobile I have ever owned has.
SteveTheJanitor 6
Just don't check your phone next time and turn it on silent
IWATCHYOUSLEEP 7
He's lying!! I was really the RIGHT number, he just wants you to not expect it :)

Exactly. What. I. Thought.
