Today, I was at a concert. It was dark and everyone was singing and waving their lit-up phones in the air. I was having a great time, until someone snatched my £200 phone out of my hand. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was entertaining people during an extra curricular school function in order to help "brighten people's spirits in their time of need." After it was all over, I found out that my phone had been stolen. FML
Today, I went to evening Mass. I later found that sometime between entering the church and receiving Communion, someone had snatched my iPhone straight out of my handbag. FML
Today, my phone got stolen at church. FML
Today, at a concert, I tried to film my favorite song for Instagram. I sang along dramatically, screamed the chorus, and danced like no one was watching. When I rewatched the video later, I realized I had my phone camera flipped, recording my sweaty, overexcited face the entire time. FML
Today, I went to a gig. The drummer threw his drumsticks out at the end and I managed to catch one. With my face. Not only did I get a black eye, but the person next to me snatched the drumstick from my hands. FML
Today, I fell asleep listening to my music and tanning at the beach. Not only did I wake up with a sunburn, but my iPhone had been stolen. FML
Today, it was the concert of my life. I had bought tickets the minute they went on sale, and I'd anxiously waited until the concert date. Thirty minutes before the show, my friend got so drunk that we weren't allowed in, and I was stuck babysitting her all night in the hotel, completely missing the show. FML
Today, I was walking home, when I realized I didn't have my phone on me. After retracing my steps, I realized that I'd been listening to music from my phone the entire time. FML
Today, I got on the bus and the driver said I didn't have to pay since the ticket machine was broken. I was happy to have saved £2.40 until I realised someone had stolen my new £700 phone while I was talking to the driver. FML
Today, I was looking at the map on my phone whilst walking down a street. I heard the sound of a bike behind me so I moved to let the cyclist past. He snatched the phone out of my hand and sped off. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

1) call it 2) triangulate it 3) collect it 4) beat the shit out of the guy that took it

How the hell is this a YDI?

Whatever happened to holding up a good ole' zippo? Waving phones around just screams "steal me"

This is a YDI because why the **** do people wave their phones in the air at gigs? The camera phone paparazzi is irritating enough to start with, now this dumb trend makes it even worse. It's another sign of how detached we've become from anything real, visceral or emotional that we wave a piece of technology around like it means anything. Agreed with #133, bring back the Zippo!

A $313.00 phone, damn, that's kinda expensive. Good luck retrieving it, OP.

U guys are whining about a 200£ phone. My old vertu cost me 6900$ and yet somebody stole it from my bag when i was on the beach thats last year

That definitely sucks. You wouldn't think that people would grab your phone when everyone has theirs in the air; especially if they take it right out of your hand. However, you kind of deserve this for not turning around and going karate on their ass.

That's really not that expensive. But still, due to the bad luck, FYL.
