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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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!

Came here to say this. Seriously, it's horribly overpriced netbook. Not only that, a Macbook Air has break me written all over it.

you should have 2 weeks to change it without insurance since you bought it.

Thankfully AppleCare is retroactive. Go out and buy it now and you'll get the coverage. Then just take it in and they'll give you a new one.

I didn't take the time to look for a response to #116, and there very well may be...in fact I hope someone else noticed this. "If you need to update your OS, just use another computer". I can't tell for the life of me if this is a sarcastic post or not... seems to be a common theme here... if you need to run a disk or install some software, use another computer, if you need to update your OS, use another computer, if you need to listen to music, use another computer, if you need to burn a CD/DVD, use another computer, if you want to use a keyboard or mouse, use another computer, if you want to print something out, use another computer, if you want to watch a movie, use another computer, if you want to surf the web, use another computer, if you step on your crapintosh air, use another computer... does every macintrash owner have more than one laptop / desktop? i mean, for ****'s sake people, you already spent twice as much on half the computer you could have had for half the price, but you have to buy another laptop for twice the price that has the other half of the features a normal computer has just to have one fully functioning four times expensive of 2 half as good as one normally priced laptop? if you were able to follow that, you don't own a mac, and please, feel free to pat yourself on your back for not being stupid. if you didn't understand it, you are probably a mac owner, and please, try to touch your elbow to your nose

He doesn't deserve it for buying a mac, he deserved it for leaving it on the floor.
