Today, I stepped on the MacBook Air I purchased 4 days ago. The screen snapped in two, and I didn't buy insurance because I promised myself I would be "extra careful." $3500 well spent. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after calling the insurance plan for my new iPhone a "huge waste of money", I promptly dropped it in the store while trying to put it into my pocket, cracking the screen. FML
Today, I dropped my 400 dollar iphone, that's been through toilets and 6 foot falls, on a walmart floor and shattered the screen. I managed, however, to catch the 2 dollar macaroni and cheese before it hit the ground. FML
Today, it seemed like a great day. Right up until the point to where I accidentally damaged a friend's MacBook Pro. Not only do I have to pay for it, but the only way I'll be able to afford it is by returning every single Christmas gift I get. FML
Today, while mopping the kitchen, I ended up slipping and and knocked over the table that had my mom’s iPad on it. The screen shattered; I sprained my wrist. I asked my mom to take me to the ER. She called me "selfish" because her iPad screen repair would "cost more." FML
Today, I was feeling pretty proud of myself for building an Ikea shelf/dresser combo completely by myself. When going to put the last drawer together, I dropped one of the boards. The corner landed perfectly in the middle of my phone screen, shattering it. It's going to cost $230 to fix it. FML
Today, right after I finished writing a very important paper and saved it to my hard drive, my barely 2-year-old Macbook decided to completely stop functioning. I went to the Apple store and even they can't get it to turn on. That's $1500 down the drain along with my grade. FML
Today, I bought an otter box. While setting up my iPhone, I dropped it and it is now shattered. FML
Today, I got a new laptop for Christmas. The picture on the box showed a woman balancing it on one finger to show how light it was, so I tried it myself. I dropped my laptop, breaking the hard drive and putting a massive crack down the screen. FML
Today, I shattered my iPhone screen. Pieces of glass are chipping out and can easily slice up any idiot who slides their finger across the screen. Unfortunately, I was that idiot. There's blood in the cracks of my screen. FML
Today, I spilled some milk on my laptop. I was pretty sure it would be fine as it was only a bit of milk. While cleaning the residue, I knocked a whole bucket of water into the insides of the laptop. RIP Macbook. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How can you step on your macbook if you are "extra carefull"??? Putting it on the floor, or maybe you did dance on the table?, isn't carefull at all!

Okay, for starters, to end this damn argument, a Mac IS a PC. Because PC stands for Personal Computer. It's not Mac vs. PC, it's Mac vs. Everything else. Secondly, Vista haters are just as bad as Mac haters. Besides, the only real "problem" with Vista is that Mac sucessfully made it look bad. It's not a bad OS, as evidenced by the Mojave Experiment (although that was largely unscientific and I'm a bit wary of endorsing it); it's just had bad publicity. Third, on something like a computer, you ALWAYS get the warrenty/insurance/whatever. If you're putting that much money into something, you need the protection. OP, you deserve it. Big time.

YDI for buying something that expensive without getting insurance, then being stupid enough to leave said expensive item on the floor. You were asking for trouble.

Why on earth would you spend $3500 for a computer? I bought my HP laptop in January 2006 for $900 and I STILL use it! Still workes perfectly. Granted I had to replace the keyboard ($10) and bought a larger hard drive, I still haven't spent what you have. You can find places that will replace the screen for a few hundred dollars.

It’s kind of expected for a computer to last 3 years. The thing is a mac will still work and hold about 50 percent of its value for a good 6-7 years.

Depending on what state you live in, there may be a law called the "implied warranty law." Any product purchased over $500 is covered by LAW. You will have to make a few calls to the state and ask, but if you really did spend $3,500 it might be worth it. That said, you're retarded.

Why would a $3500 object be lying on the floor?
