Today, I missed an important phone call. It's been so long since someone has called me that I didn't recognize my own ringtone. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my phone rang just seconds after I left a conference meeting to go use the restroom. It wouldn't have been a problem, except it seems one of my friends thought it would be funny to change my ringtone to a woman having an orgasm. FML
Today, I lost my phone while at the store with my mom. She decided to call it, and that's when I remembered that my ringtone for her is the song "Mother" by The Police. The weirded-out stares I got as I picked up my phone have become a core memory that I absolutely did not want. FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, I had an important appointment for a job. During the interview, my cellphone rang. My ringtone is "Denver, the last Dinosaur". FML
Today, after months of job searching, I finally got a call for an interview. Right in the middle of the call, my phone hung up so the music app could open. I tried calling them back and got no response. FML
Today, I saw a missed call on my phone. Thinking it was one of the multiple jobs I applied for, I called back. Turns out it was just a debt collector. FML
Today, I attended a funeral. During the minute of silence, my phone went off. My ringtone is "It's good to be alive". FML
Today, while on vacation, I called my home phone to check the messages. Someone answered. FML
Today, I got a missed call from my dad, who hasn't talked to me in months and has vowed not to have anything to do with me. I called him back excitedly and apologized for missing his call, and we had a 20-second conversation about how his phone accidentally dialed my number. FML
Today, the phone kept ringing so I picked it up and answered. When there was no response, it took a minute to realize that I was still in bed and talking to my hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hopefully they left a message, but since it's on here I'm guessing they didn't, so hopefully they call back!

Guys this is a repost from 2009 I remember reading it before and I saw it a couple months ago on the random section. FML should have filters to these type of things

What if it's a landline?

Some landlines do have different ringers. I know I've had quite a few with a variety of ringers.

I know what a rotary phone is, and I didn't use google or any other Internet site and I'm 26. Not everyone is that uninformed.

I'm 22 and I have no idea how this went from a stupid suggestion of turning the phone to vibrate to something about bewbs? Wtf is that?

Sad face...that sucks...I've been there before though. Maybe the important phone call was to tell you that your phone hasn't been working right, lolz.

"Sad face"... So how is botox effecting your daily life? You know, besides having to state what emotion your face would be doing.

Complaining about your lack of social interactions on the Internet won't get you anywhere.

I'm pretty sure the internet was invented for people with no social lives.

It wasn't, but it's become the escape for many people of that category, #40.

So you've been paying an expensive phone bill on a phone that you don't use or even recognize??....... Interesting.....
pinkcrayola 0
They could text and just not talk on the phone...and who said it was expensive there are some phones you can pay for minutes as you go along.
akayc32 0
84, when you start paying for it yourself, you'll realize they are ALL expensive.

I'm using an iPhone and I pay 35 a month. If you think that's expensive, how about getting a real job? All you whack 17 year olds with Blackberries paying for data plans LOL
