Today, I stood in line for one hour to get a new phone. It then took me 2 minutes to drop it and shatter the screen, and 2 seconds for the employee to look at, laugh, and tell me, "That Sucks." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got my phone fixed after the screen had been shattered for four months straight. Then, the moment they handed it to me, it fell straight to the floor and shattered. Again. FML
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 phone. I'd only just bought this new phone last night. It barely survived 12 hours. FML
Today, I got a Samsung Galaxy and opened the box to see a cracked screen. I showed the clerk and she said I must have dropped it. I hadn't moved since she handed me the box. FML
Today, while walking to work, I accidentally dropped my $400 cell phone on the sidewalk. The screen shattered into a million pieces. A woman passing by looked at the ruined phone and said, "Now that's what you call a dropped call!" She laughed and kept walking. FML
Today, I helped friends move home, and since we couldn't all fit in their car I took the bus. While waiting, my new phone slipped and crashed on the floor. It now has a cracked screen right between my two overpriced phone protectors. FML
Today, I bought my first iPhone. Today, I broke my first iPhone. FML
Today, I was yelled at by a customer because I wouldn't give her a new iPhone 5 for free to replace her broken Nokia, which she threw out the window in "blind rage". I felt awful having to thank her for calling. Sadly, this is a daily event. FML
Today, I bought an otter box. While setting up my iPhone, I dropped it and it is now shattered. FML
Today, I got my phone back after bringing it in to get a crack in the screen repaired. The crack is fixed, but now the touch screen doesn't work and it won't connect to the Internet. I essentially paid to have my phone broken even more. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Two minutes to drop it? Were you on an airplane at 40,000 ft when you dropped it? Or was it one of those comedy scenes where you were juggling and bobbling it and finally it fell to the ground and got smashed?

Vapid is a word, too, moron. It means flat or lifeless, and is used correctly in #6's sentence.

haha I would have done the same thing as the employee, YDI for being clumsy with a brand new phone! Now you're out a couple hundred dollars (unless you bought a cheap ass phone, then you're probably only out $50) Next time learn to hold onto things; makes life a helluva lot easier and less expensive!

What's an ass phone? Is that one where people can't butt into your conversation? Seriously, use a hyphen! :-P

holy crap, i think this employee was me...the "waiting" part was waiting for the customer before them, and activation and everything. as soon as she opened the box, the phone fell onto the tile floor and the glass on tbe screen wasnt cracked, but it would no longer display anything. and we did replace it with another one for free, we want our customers to come back, not tell their friends and family to stop shopping there

people who stand in line for hours at a time for a game or piece of technology are PATHETIC. you DESERVED it.

Sometimes an hour is a short wait. I never waste money on "top of the line" anything, since it will be out of date and half the price a few weeks later, but it still takes me an hour to get a sales rep at the AT&T store near my house. Because even if I just want to buy a new memory card, I have to wait behind the guy getting a new blackberry and the guy adding internet service to his LG-whatever. Still, while the irony of breaking your new phone may be crushing, you don't get sympathy from me for being clumsy.

@10, You sir are an idiot who just can't afford technology. Things don't go down in price "in a few weeks." Also with your mentality, why buy anything? It will just become old anways.

He doesn't literally mean a few weeks jerk. And yes things do drastically decline in price. The iphone cost me 640 dollars when it first came out. Now if I wanted one I would just pay around 199. Not necessarily in weeks, but sooner or later it was decline. You are an idiot @43

Would not be a FML had you not been so klutzy. Maybe the next time you wait a long time for something you'll be more careful. YDI

Shouldn't of dropped it then. Or, you should've gotten a durable phone, instead of one that 'looks cool'. My EnV is still going strong even though I've had it for over a year and a half. I've had it thrown at tables, dropped it on concrete, and had it slide across the hard floor, but the only time one of the screens cracked is when I got pushed hard into a pool table with the phone in the pocket facing the table. It still works just fine.

... be more careful? You just spent an entire post talking about how often you drop and kick your phone

Every one of my friend's iphones including mine, has shattered. Just takes one good drop. I was getting out of the car and had just taken my case off to clean the phone since my little cousin put crumbs in it. It slipped right out of my hand and hit the gravel on it's screen. Shattered into a million pieces and couldn't be used. I take full responsibility and just bought a new one. I wanted the new 3Gs anyways.
