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!

What shitty PCs do you buy that go bad in less than a year? My PC from 2003 , which is from dell (dells suck ass), has been working for 6 years of heavy use, and is more than fast enough for anything that macs are made for. You think the only way someone can dis-like a mac is if they can't afford it?

I love how Mac users neglect the fact that a PC is a personal computer. More to the point the hardware a PC uses is, now a days, the same as what Apple uses. Why? Because Apple was losing more and more market share, money, and needed something to get them going. So they decided to lock in 'PC' hardware that would work with the Mac and migrate over to mainstream PC'dom. The argument, the best computer to run windows is a Mac is a non sequitor. The mac itself is a PC, it uses intel hardware, it uses like video cards, ram, etc. So the best computer to run Windows is any computer that meets the requirements, guess what? Mac does that now! Also, bootcamp may be cool, but its emulation, meaning your creating a virtual computer, which uses a heck of allot more resources than normal. Apple likes to charge exorbitant prices and fees to its customers for hip and sleek hardware. Fine, enjoy it. It is not really better than a PC. When people say PC they need to realize that a home made computer with parts that would run Mac OSX is... a PC! woo! Likewise, Windows is not a PC. It is an operating system. With more market share than Apple can even dream of having. The reason for that is because it is preferred, it is more mass market acceptable, it is easily used across the world, and it 'just works'. If it were as virus prone, slow, crash heavy as everyone asserts, it never would have really taken off. It wouldn't be the mainstay of some 80% of the entire world market. If you actually do your checking Windows time to response on security fixes is higher than Apples. The only correlation that can be drawn for windows having simply more virus attacks, is because virtually everyone uses them. If no one had windows, people would develop viruses for other operating systems. These are just magic beasts that spring up in windows, people design them. They design them for the biggest target. Microsoft. If Apple actually mattered more, it would be a target.

I have a mac and I like it a lot better than pc. I had 6 pcs each lasting about 3 months. I did not do anything that can give u viruses yet they still crashed. all had the same problem. when each one died I had to call dell each time to see If I could het a new pc. each time I called I got some Indian trying to help but I couldn't understand them.so I just got a mac it still has not died and Ive had it for four years, no provlems too. macs may be overpriced but a r still better then pcs also whoever has a iPod here but hates apple is a dumbshit
