Today, I have no cell phone reception as I am visiting family who lives on the side of a mountain. They told me there was service on top of the mountain, so I hiked up. Only when I got there did I realize I'd left my phone back down at the house. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to work 300 miles away from where I live. I couldn't find my customer's address, so I decided to call him. I'd picked up my wireless house phone instead of my mobile. FML
Today, I lost my phone during a hike up Mount Washington. Luckily, it was reported to the office, and they called my wife. Too bad we had already been driving for at least four hours. FML
Today, I told my mom I was going hiking with a couple of friends and wouldn't be back for four or more hours. Not even two hours later, she called the cops and reported us as missing. She didn't realize that we wouldn't have service up the canyon so we could call her back. FML
Today, I accidentally left my cell phone at the restaurant. When I realized my mistake, I went back to see if anyone had found it. They said no, so I gave them my number to call if it turned up. I realized later that I'd given them my cell phone number. FML
Today, I forgot my phone on the roof of my car. I took a 30 minute drive from my friend's city to my city. I got on to my driveway, surprised to see my phone still there. Thinking I'm really lucky, I pick up my phone. Then, I trip over a pebble, cracking my phone in the process. FML
Today, I noticed that my mom had left the house without her cell phone. I called her phone to let her know she forgot it. FML
Today, while visiting family, we went to a restaurant to eat. Towards the end of the meal, I went to use the restroom. When I came back, everyone was gone. Everyone had actually gotten into their cars and left without me. I have no idea where I am and no one is answering their phone. FML
Today, while on vacation, I called my home phone to check the messages. Someone answered. FML
Today, I got better phone reception crossing an inlet on a ferry than I normally do at my own house. FML
Today, while out hiking, my phone slipped out of my pocket. I caught it and gave it to my little cousin, giving her a "special mission" to keep it safe. When we got back to our cars later, I asked her for my phone back. Turns out she left it under a shrub back in the hills so it'd be "safe." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

it's not going to kill you to go a few hours without the phone. And if it does YDI for not bringing a first aid kid.

#1 she realised she forgot her phone when she got to the top of the mountain ... uhm where the hell did you get wifi from ?

@61 From the fact that she was able to post this FML.

I think he is he/she or just heshe is trying to say but yet you had wifi to post this on fml at that very moment...... and that makes 1 even more of a idiot

I believe what everyone calling #1 an idiot is trying to say is - you don't need wifi to post on FML. You can use any form of internet. OP also probably didn't walk up the mountain scream out "FML!!" and then immediately jump on a web-enabled device and post their story.

I think #1 was trying to say like maybe if OP had a smart phone they could download an app that you can make calls over wifi. Anyway OP ydi.

lol idk 71... I'm pretty sure #1 just failed and assumed OP posted this at the exact moment it happened...

yea well how could op send this to fml without service? cuz if theirs no service theres most likely not any internet service either.
welderchick87 0
My dad lives, literally, in the middle of nowhere in Amish country. When I visit, my phone is ALWAYS searching for service and rarely gets even 1 bar for more than 5 seconds. I can't make any calls unless we go into town closer to cell towers...but he does have internet. Yeah, it's slow as hell...but he has it. So just because they have no cell service doesn't mean they can't get internet.

I'm sure everyone forgets things sometimes. OP might have been in a rush to make an important call for business and such.

why would you say this. just to feel cool?
No_habla_espanol 11
I don't know why people say stupid things to people for no reason. I think it's becoming normal to be rude for no apparent reason..

#12 If it's an important call you use the landline. And if someone needs some training doesn't only depend on his/hers weight.

#7 No you are fat because you live in Antarctica!

18, nothing was really said things were typed though. also everyone knows being nice gets you nothing but walked on or hurt.
No_habla_espanol 11
#99 You know what I mean when I say "say". -.- Being nice does not ONLY get you that. You will actually get that more often if you are NOT nice. There is no reason for people to go around being needlessly rude.

99, dont be a downer. thats the kind of things that makes the world a horrible place.

Not being able to use your phone is FML worthy? Really?

I though tennessee was redneck country
tweetbaby14 18
bunny, it's a joke really.... if you take everything said online, on here especially, serious, you have some sort of issue. just saying.
tweetbaby14 18
and that has what exactly to do with what I'm saying now? poking fun is not taking things seriously, my dear.

If you think "Tennessee" is redneck, then you know nothing of the country. Eastern Kentucky, now THATS redneck.
MissBunny25 0
100 yes, I'll agree , I did overreact. (it was morning and was rather tired). if you'll read my other comments you'll see I'm just a jokester myself. it does annoy me when I say "y'all" or something "redneck" and get torn apart by people who think I marry my cousin and shit like that.

How is something as simple as forgetting something considered being stupid? Not everyone is perfect as you would like them to be.

Because if you decide to climb a mountain in order to do a phone call, you kind of need to make sure to take the phone. Yes, people forget things all the time, but when you forget something which is the REASON you decided to climb a mountain for, it's kind of dumb. No one said OP is a horrible person for it, just kind of sillystupid.
