Today, I saw a YouTube video of a guy scratching a knife and a screwdriver on his iPod, and at the end he showed how there were no scratches and the screen was still clean. I took my iPod touch and did the same with a knife. It didn't work. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I saw a spot on my computer screen. I tried to use my finger to rub it off. Then, I tried using my nail. Then I tried to windex it off. I continued scratching at it with my nail. A half hour and one scratched screen later, I realized the spot was part of the webpage I was looking at. FML
Today, I reached in between the couch cushions to see if my iPod had slipped in there. I didn't find my iPod, but I did find an old utility knife blade. With my fingers. FML
Today, I tried to demonstrate to my friend how laughably dull our kitchen knives are by swiping one across my palm. Turns out Dad noticed the problem yesterday and sharpened them. FML
Today, I bought a new iPod to replace my old one which decided to stop working. After purchasing my new nano iPod, I decided to bang my old iPod on the desk very hard because it was useless. It started working again. FML
Today, I was trying to show my boyfriend how to shake my iPod to shuffle songs. When I went to shake it, it flew out of my hand and hit him in the face. FML
Today, I scratched my car with a bottle of scratch remover deeply enough that the scratch remover couldn't remove it. FML
Today, I learned how to sharpen a knife. I sharpened it so well that it went through my finger like a lightsaber. FML
Today, I realized the $40 iPhone case I bought to keep my new phone from getting scratched, scratched my iPhone. FML
Today, I bought an iTunes giftcard worth $50. I tried to scratch off the little silver thing covering the code with a pair of scissors. I scratched so much that it's now unreadable. FML
Today, I found my son's iPod touch and was looking at a light-saber app. He walked into the living room to see me fighting the cat and making sound effects to myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

No, the screen is glass so it shouldn't get scratched unless you actually try

173- You really just made that sort of comment. You could have just said she was a stupid girl but to say black people are stupid is wrong, ignorant, and makes you look like such a man.
RubixMonkey 0
Twilight2008- If your boyfriend/girlfriend watched a video online that said biting your neck would make you into a vampire, would you do it? But I digress. The difference being, the person on the video had an iPod while OP had a touch screen. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. So yes while you might believe women everywhere are stupid enough to do this, it is ONLY OP who is dumb enough to do it to the WRONG kind of iPOD

@222 "and makes you look like such a man" wow sexist much not all men are like him you know?

I was attempting to be ironic, lol. And in my mind he isn't a man. A man is someone who knows who he is and doesn't make stupid comments to trash people. And yes I know the irony of posting on this website.

Actually both the iPhone and the iPod touch have glass screens and use capacitive multitouch, as opposed to resistive, which use plastic screens. Check your info next time.
RubixMonkey 0
We don't know the model of the iPod, it could have been one of the old ones. Still it doesn't matter, the OP has a touch screen which means they are sensitive to be able to be used. I don't see how that sounds like a great thing to scratch?

Clearly the days of using windex to clean your ipod screen are long gone.

He is not just an idiot he is a complete and utter fail obliviously your screen cannot withstand a knife with out getting scratches. You sound like a spoiled rich kid that his parents will buy him whatever he wants so he does not no the meaning of a dollar and in this case it's $300. So really this is not a FML and if you actually did not know you should be sent to Kindergarten to learn the difference between a plastic screen and a rubber case screen.
jverdouw 0
yes it is, it's a glass screen over a multitouch LCD. so if you drop it and the "screen" cracks you can replace the glass instead of buying a new iPod.

The screen is actually a film on itouchs. Me and my neighbor discovered that when we were smashing his itouch that was dropped in a lake.
